| i love this song, and especially the break right after the bridge where it silent for a second...a lot of bands never do that, but i like it..they do it in 418 too. altho its a total pop song, i love it too pieces, and i think only chicks like it. oh well | |

| At first, I thought this was just a normal "I'm dating this actress, and now I've used her to be an actor as well" - (hence the last line).. But then I realised in "she made a promise she'd never act with me" meaning that she's totally playing him and in "now Im an actor too" means that he's playing her back. Beautiful song though.. rawkz my sox!! | |

| I love this song. I've only heard Elva but I wanna see if the other CDs Unwritten Law are as fun to listen to. This is a great song. It seems to me that he's telling everyone that he's made it and is dating a beautiful girl. However, he never know if she's being real or fake and after a while, at the he says "Dear Mom I'm dating an actress Now I'm an actor too." So he might feel like he's starting to play that game too. I dunno...thats just what it sounds like to me. Unwritten Law is awesome. | |

| This is an amazing song. I really appriciate the truthfulness in his depiction of actress/model/whatever's wanting to break into "The Biz". My favourite part is the bridge, "She promised she'd never act with me.." It would suck so bad to be played like that! Ouch! To realize you're just part of her script to get her where she wants to go, is perfectly described by "..Line please, line please." | |
