"You know... how come singers in the US both male and female rarely to never use peoples names in their love songs? They're like "I love you" or "As long as you love me" or "I love him/her" without really using a persons name ever. A lot of songs in France use someone's name. "Julie mmm Julie Julie mmm Juliee eee eee eee eee" You can tell the musician is interested in this Julie person, and is excited when she walks into a room so he's singing a song about her. And some other french woman can try to imagine how Julie the unknown lady being admired must feel while listening to the guy sing about her, and maybe sing along for a bit. Or some guy who hears the song can imagine how the guy is feeling about his Julie. While in the US it's totally unclear who the guy or girl is singing about if anyone at all. It's too beurocratic and uptight. I guess it's probably because unlike Europe, where we may argue yell and swear for twenty minutes over which car can cross a small bridge first, or get in a fist fight, we never do things like hang out in court rooms, the most popular social spot to meet people and have lawsuits." We think more relaxed and we don't make much trouble when a person's name is used. How many people have the first name John Smith, for example in the US? Although a while ago someone used the name Delilah in a song. That's the only name I have heard used within many many years. I asked my friend in college who was a smoker and he said "They don't actually love absolutely anyone, they're just doing it to please the masses. They're like "I love you" they didn't even make the song about a person. It's ridiculous." And then the three of us made up the term "Bitch Lasagna." No pewdiepie did not create it, we did and posted it on urban dictionary a decade ago. It's basically a person who's all lovey dovey but doesn't really like anyone." In years it became popular.

Maybe the singer doesn't want to bait out the person

nice accent and friendly tone. Some background noise

well, I agree with the topic. But I generally do not like love songs or even songs with lyrics for that matter. Part of it is because when I was young I could not listen to these fake love songs or political propaganda songs, rap songs, etc..

Often with love songs, it is about "club love" or "bad romance" which is more realistic but somewhat cringe too. Using a name is somewhat creepy and it often does age fast, especially these days.

People do not want to be emotionally invested while still eating the cake, you know what I means.

Belthagor responds:

I disagree. When two people are in love they tend to use each others names quite often when speaking to each other. Why would it be creepy to do it while singing to a person? I await your reply. Not that there's anything wrong with your personal views but it doesn't quite make sense... I mean you could give a reason why you think that. And it may be a very logical reason. I'd really like to know...
