    This happened to me and my best friend in high school. I wanted his girl so bad. We hung out as a trio quite often so she and I were always together. I respected my boy though. I did nothing inappropriate and kept my fantasies to myself. My buddy was a serial dater though and I knew he would cast her aside soon enough. Soon enough became 2 years. But they did break up amicably and we all remained friends. I asked him if it was cool if I dated her. He said he was down with it. And I got 'Jessie's ' girl in the end. Married for 31 years now.

      Actually despite what many people comment about "Jessie's Girl", it is extremely common in school for someone's buddy to date a girl you may want to date also...after all, most guys are usually eyeing the same girls that their buddies and circle of friends are. The only uncool thing is to try and snake away the girl or backstab your buddy. Rick isn't trying to or talking about stealing his "best friend's girl"...he just wishes he was in his buddy's shoes and he had landed her.
      It is funny that "The Cars" had a huge hit in this period called "She's My Best Friend's Girl - But She Used To Be Mine"

    I don't believe he's talking about drugs .... being cool with the lines is just being cool with things he says to her... like pick up lines or being funny with jokes and such. He's saying he wants a woman like her and he's definitely jealous but he's not acting on that aside from Possibly low key flirting with her through "come on lines". Or just trying to be extra charming around her.

    I was a roadie for a Rick Springfield concert in summer of 1985, he was the bomb! Took place at West Fargo Fairgrounds, hundreds of blond permed hair girls - Rick would make one small move, and they would go crazy! One memorable thing: there was a long (~50') runway in front of the stage, about 8 to 10 feet above the ground, a teen girl was hoisted up to the top/end of it, and started running full speed towards the stage, the crowd went crazy, and just before she got to Rick, a security guy grabbed her and whisked her offstage.

    BTW - Rick Springfield was a star on General Hospital first, and everyone was surprised to find out that he could actually sing. And that his songs were actually very good. His Greatest Hits record is fantastic.

      Actually he was a teen pop idol in the late 60's and early 70's before he went into acting. He was a musical guest on The Sonny and Cher Show in 1972.

    All 80s all the time up in here! Yeah the level of coveting that Rick gets to in this song is just plain wrong lol. One more edit - the funny thing here is that this song came out when I was like 8 or 9, but it was top-40 and on the radio all of the time. We'd just walk around singing the chorus without a clue how deep the depravity goes. It's like you know the surface question when you're that age, but not quite the level of creep that gets you to that point. I should also point out that he's singing from a character's POV. My guess is that he's recounting conversations that he's had with creeps.

    This kind of thing happens. Eric Clapton was a friend of George Harrison, but Eric fell in love with George's wife. She felt the same way. So eventually they had to make an adjustment.

    Well, good songs reflect the human experience, the good bits and the bad bits, like jealously. I've always had the impression that the singer in this song is a teenager, who's still learning boundaries and self-control and also suffering from the despair of ever getting a girl that afflicts teenage boys in particular, right up to the moment they actually get one.

    Please note the opening guitar riff was done by Neil Giraldo who is married to Pat Benetar. PS: There was no Jessie. The name was changed to make the song make sense.

    This guy Brad does not really know the rules of being with a attractive woman. Being super protective and suspicious of other people is no way to be. Either ya trust her or ya don't . He seems super insecure to me and let me tell you , she gets hit on every day. She just doesn't tell you cuz to her it's nuthin. Just enjoy her, she is with you and shows no signs of changing her mind.

  • @lauraeichenberger4636

  • @geneholland1188
    @geneholland1188 2 роки тому +1

    Brad if it helps he says "I want to tell her I love her but the point is probably moot!" Which means he hasn't said anything or put the moves on her. He knows his place but he's attracted to her. He's conflicted right from the start, he says Jessie's always been a good friend of mine. We've all been attracted to someone we can't have. We don't act on it or go splitting up relationships but we aren't blind to the opposite sex either.

    Actually Brad, what Rick was saying when he'd said being cool with the lines, was that he was cool with keeping his feelings for his friend's girlfriend under wraps
    As a matter of fact, this song was based on a real-life experience that Rick Springfield had been through while he was in college where a friend of his had gotten a girlfriend and both he and the friend were in the same Class at college as his friend's girlfriend and due to how he'd had feelings for the girlfriend, it'd prompted Rick to change classes

He wants Jessie's girls and he's using lines on her. Nuff said. If I'm Jessie I tell Rick hey if I hear you using lines on my girl again you're going to be doing it without any teeth.

I saw someone on here say that Brad couldn't do anything about lex being bubbly and outgoing...wtf.? They support each other with their personalities! I'm sure he'd never want her to change, and really shouldn't be bothered by any thirsty dudes on here..

    It is painful to watch how personal they take a song and how wrong they are about the lyrics.
    "...I've been cool with lines..." Is about cocaine? Seriously?! It's him talking, his rap or game. It could also mean that he knows not to cross the "line" or break the bro code.
    Also he says; "Where can I find a WOMAN like that?" It doesn't necessarily mean he wants Jessie's girl but someone like her.
