A question about the video[edit]

Halfway through the video, did anyone ever figure out what she was spelling with the papers and stuff, after she shot him? This was just before the chorus came back a 2nd or 3rd time and they showed her running. I've never been able to make it out.

==She's spelling out 'lost'

this video is sooooo confusing! are her father and the detective investigating the case the SAME GUY? some sort of artistic thing, e.g. good family man cop with daughter pondering perv dad "...that could just as well be me"?

really creepy when he wraps the blanket around her at the end -- is that some sort of "come home, baby" moment, i.e. parallel outcome where she HADN'T killed him, and she's right back in the mess she ran away from?

if they're truly diff characters (father and cop), then why the HECK they using two actors so nearly identical?! 66.105.218.51 (talk) 05:07, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Brains & Education[edit]

Tell us all: who wrote this phrase and what does it mean? 'The song is about a girl who fucks a man in her bed revenge on her father after being sexually abused'. You bleedin' morons.

Fair use rationale for Image:JaniesGotaGun.jpg[edit]

Image:JaniesGotaGun.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Comparison[edit]

Does it make sense to compare this to Millie_Pulled_a_Pistol_on_Santa/Keepin'_the_Faith, a song by De La Soul with similar lyrical themes?

80's or 90's?[edit]

Can we regard this song as a 80's or 90's song? It is on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of 80's list and, Billboard 1990 Year-End List. The songs that released on November-December always confuse me. --212.156.168.189 (talk) 19:25, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
