What if I say I will never surrender?

(Originally posted on Sunday, 5 November 2017)

I can't believe that I didn't fall in love with this song (The Pretender by Foo Fighters) earlier. The main reason was probably that I didn't read the lyrics and I had trouble to understand them by ear. The lyrics can be interpreted in many different ways (any way that suits you) and the refrain is simply awesome:

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one
of your plays? You're the pretender!
What if I say I will never surrender?


The first video below features full lyrics of the song. The second video is the official music video (it makes much more sense to me now). The last video is a cover of this song by a female music band (of real sisters) – awesome performance by all of them!
