1. Many songs are about many people.
Some people do some work, others do other work, but when a person does good works in any form, it is for and about many people. You have to be able to see the many people in any story or song, and know it is not about a single person, neither the writer nor the singer nor the listener, but about many people and possibly all people.

Things like songs are shared so that they can be felt by many people, in that they are about many people. I agree it would be vain to think it is about any individual, but it would be equally vain to not see that songs and stories are about many people.

If you can feel the tone of a song, then it is probably part of you also, the basic concept of shared love.

That's how I think on things like that.
