To my point, what if you see the song as whiney because you are only looking at that part of the song, and not the rest. OR at least ignoring the importance of the rest. Especally at the end, I mean it picks up and states, "To be a Rock and not to roll." In other words unyielding/ strong, giving a person hope, no??
I've bin asked onece by a friend, "Did you ever think that the reason you seem to think things are what they are, is becuase you are reflecting your own feelings?" for example, Some one says, "Look at that shirt it's so stupid, why would some one wear that ugly thing?" You imeadiatly get angery and turn to face them, or maybe you cower and hide thinking you are being put down, when really they are just talking to a freind about thier firends shirt, but they are kidding. So you, are refelcting your own insecurities, upon the events happening around you. If you were that kind of person, differnt people react to different things in different eh??
Maybe, you fear that you will seem whiney if you listen to "stairway to heaven" or songs of the like. Eh?
Just a thought, there are other things i'd go into but i haven't quite figured them out and how they tie into this idea.
Now remember i'm not saying you are or are not anything, but just curious why you think the song is whiney, as aposed to simply me assuming why. If that makes any sense on my be half??
Peace
