It’s my party and I’ll cry if i want to…



It’s my birthday today, November 27, 2008. IT’S MY PARTY AND I’LL CRY IF I WANT TO…

I found out that that phrase means…. something negative:

The song lyrically portrays the emotional downfall and public humiliation of a teenage girl who, at the birthday party she is throwing, is humiliated when her boyfriend, Johnny, abruptly leaves her and takes up with a girl named Judy, to whom he gives a ring to show his love for her.
The song’s chorus, “It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to… You would cry too if it happened to you,” quickly became a part of American pop cultural language as a phrase used to describe being utterly humiliated and miserable during an event that is supposed to be a happy occasion.

 

 

I guesss….

    Uh-oh. I missed gatecrashing your party by a couple of hours. :) Well, happy birthday anyway, Tonex. Wishing you good health and happiness. Good health to power your cool blog to more prominence, success, and longevity.

    Tonex,

    Why do you hate it when it’s your birthday? I don’t see the logic, is it because you’re getting older? hmp…

    Anyway, you’re in Cebu right? Why don’t we meetup with my friends from Cebu Bloggers? I’m sure we’ll have so much to talk about. :D
