Because the song starts off with the line “You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, when I met you”, there is a chance that you instantly become reminiscent about how you and your current love interest met. But then it would have to read “I was 12 Pabst Blue Ribbons deep, and you seemed slutty enough, when I met you”.

I know it was the 80′s, but the fact that Human League singer Phil Oakey appears to be wearing a double sided dangling earring and lipstick in the video makes me think that this song was not necessarily written for his female counterpart. Maybe it’s really about how he first met George Michael.

You’ve all heard this one more times than you can count, and there’s a reason for that, it’s a good song. You know, the thing is that videos good or bad used to be a little mini movie with the song as the soundtrack, and “Don’t you want me” is all about this. It amounts to a movie within a movie within a video, but in a world where Christopher Walken makes films like “Balls of Fury”, I find myself happy to see the song’s lyrics acted out in artsy expression. There’s something about people looking straight into the camera and singing which I really dig, unless it’s Dave Matthews whom I really dig graves for. The dramatic feel combined with the song’s lyrics will affect you, so don’t pretend as though you aren’t compiling a little montage of loves lost in your head as you watch this video too…I know how you are.
