I'm not a fan of Pink's but one of my favorite duos (I have all of their cds!) Roxette, also has a song titled Here Comes The Weekend on one of their cds. Interesting.
" This beautiful song is about a mother who lost her child. Being in first person gives to the song a new level of intimacy. This mother wants to reach her son in this "parallel universe" (Heaven, I guess) and there she will be able to be with him. This woman is grief-stricken, but she is also humble. In fact, she asks to be with him just for a minute, even if she knows that in those sixty seconds she will not be able to formulate a thought, but only to enjoy the happiness of being there holding the tender face of her child. She's tired of fighting, she just wants to have her baby back, but she knows she can't. So, when she becomes aware of not being able to see him again, she tries to communicate with him through the little things, such as candles or shining stars. This song is heart-breaking and excruciating. "
Yes, I know what the song means. I was wondering WHO the song was about, if anyone. Singers often sing about things they've experienced. I guess I'm curious if this is personal to Pink.
