Subject: "Crash", DMB

Written By: LoJay on 11/16/02 at 09:15 p.m.

I'm a first-timer to this site & have had the best time surfing around here, but I do have to disagree with the following (found in the Nonsensical portion of the site)...

Dave Matthews Band's, "Crash"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
You wear nothing but you wear it so well
Why They're Nonsensical:
This line contradicts itself.

I must say, isn't that the point????  She's wearing nothing, but wearing it oh so well.  Am I wrong here??

leb...you're right she's wearing something: nothing. and the fact that she IS wearing nothing and wears it so well...it's like he who knows nothing knows something.

It does contradict itself.  It's called a paradox, it's a common poetic technique.
