so i say for now, most of the a song for XX album, M makes me cry every time, an i really liked monochrome and SURREAL as well
Yeah, A Song For Xx is a severly underrated album. Some aspects of it may not meet the standards of her other albums, but lyrically, the entire thing is a masterpiece that I don't think she has matched since.

So then you think: aaaah what a sweet happy song. But.... Then she wakes up, and she sees a wonderful present.. But the present is located exactly where her dearest should have been. He had left her.... And then she repeats the first paragraph and the end, which makes the refrain change from very sweet to very ironic.
Yeah, I love Teddy Bear as well. So does my Dad, he cries everytime he watches the live performance. Just to clarify for those that don't know, it is about when her father walked out on her and her mother.
