Uh...what the f*** is wrong with this man??? So I'm listening to Frank Ocean's album and I hear this song written about Forrest Gump. I'm thinking...this mutha is sick!
I wanna see your pom poms from the stands
Come on, come on
My fingertips, and my lips, they burn
From the cigarettes
Forrest Gump you run my mind boy
Running on my mind boy
Forrest Gump
I know you Forrest
I know you wouldn't hurt a beetle
But you're so buff, and so strong
I'm nervous Forrest
Forrest Gump
Now my fingertips, and my lips, they burn
From the cigarettes
Forrest Gump you run my mind boy
Running on my mind boy
Forrest Gump
I saw your game, Forrest
I was screaming run 44
But you kept running past the end zone
Oh where'd you go Forrest
Forrest Gump
And my fingertips, and my lips, they burn
From the cigarettes
Forrest Gump you run my mind boy (yea)
Running on my mind boy
Forrest Gump
Forrest green
Forrest blues
I re-mem-ber you
If this is love, I know it's true
I won't For-get you (you)
(oh you you) it's for you Forrest
(oh you you) it's for you Forrest
Outro:
If this is love
I know it's true
I won't
For-get-you
So...I was sitting here wondering if Frank Ocean is gay and attracted to mentally disabled men. Then I read that it was written from the perspective of Jenny, Forrests love interest. Except I don't think Jenny had these types of feelings for Forrest. Whatever you say Frank...
Jenny my ass. Frank came out he's gay, i think he is the first rapper to admit it pubicly. Shortly after Anderson Cooper came out to the world so did Mr. Ocean.
ReplyDeleteEvery time I listen to this song I think that if he was singing a song about how sexy Alcide Hevereaux or Eric Northman is (keeping in mind that we are just talking about characters and not actual people) I could get all into that--gay or not gay. But Forrest Gump? WTF???
DeleteFrank came out to say he had feelings for a man, he fell in love with his best friend, I don't think he is identifying as anything, Maybe that was the point not to be like I'm a gay or bisexual man but I fell in love with my best friend and he didn't reciprocate the feelings and that f-n hurt. It's in his album notes which are all over tumblr.
ReplyDeleteI know people with sexual preferences that runs the gamut...but I don't know too many people who would have romantic feelings towards Forrest Gump. Though I do have a cousin that had a crush on Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. But she was ten years old. I had a crush on...well that had a big battery in it even if it was an inanimate object.
