I totally agree, and that's my point sort of. Mostly I'm worried that people will try to take this song and, more importantly, their INTERPRETATION of this song, and turn it into something that sullies the reputation of somebody with no substantive evidence (except for their INTERPRETATION of what Amy has said and what this song says). And that's not right.
Oceanic, I wasn't accusing you of anything at all. I was simply noting that nobody should take this song, slap an interpretation on it, and for instance, say "SangReal is a sadistic, physically abusive rapist who hates everybody." I would sue you for defaming my character if you said this in earnest and I had the resources to do so, and I would probably win, because there is no evidence that I have ever beaten or raped anyone. If the person or persons who I have supposedly beaten want to claim so in a court of law and brings charges against me, fine. But if not, nobody else should try to cast aspersions on my character. That's all I'm saying.
