I am completely obsessed with this song right now. Like, absolutely engulfed in it.
The soul of the song screams out exactly what a soulful song tries to say, but for me, the subject of the song; and I'm assuming it's "You", as Alicia sings it with such a personal, tragically adoring passion, is about Music.
The message changes from person to person, of course, but I feel like Alicia's character in the song, be it herself or another persona, is singing about her love of music, and how desperately she needs it in her life, which is why she compares it to fame and fortune and that "divinity" the public puts on an artist, and basically the repercussions for what sometimes being a successful artist means.
Beyond all that, in the song, she's saying, she needs music. Music is her life.
Anyway, that's how I listen to music. Hopefully some of you resonate the same way as me.
