LYRICS TO "Anyone Else But You" by Moldy Peaches covered by Ellen Page and Michael Cera?

Question

Could someone more clearly explain :

"I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you"

...I just don't get it how its phrased

Answer 1

what it means is



the person who wrote this song-- doesnt understand how anyone can love anyone else.

they love every quality about their partener and they dont see how anyone else could love anyone but their partner because they are so perfect in their mind. thats my take on it



thats the beauty of music, it can mean whatever you want it 2

Answer 2

music is a spill of emotions and thoughts. maybe The Moldy Peaches were drunk when they wrote this one...but it's a beautiful song. i just think of it as an emotion and a feeling that one person has for their significant other. Michael Cera and Ellen Page sing it much better then The Moldy Peaches don't cha think?

Answer 3

You're a part time lover and a full time friend

The monkey on you're back is the latest trend

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of a train

I kiss you all starry eyed, my body's swinging from side to side

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



Here is the church and here is the steeple

We sure are cute for two ugly people

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me

So why can't, you forgive me?

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



I will find my nitch in your car

With my mp3 DVD rumple-packed guitar

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



Du du du du du du dudu

Du du du du du du dudu

Du du du du du du dudu du



Up up down down left right left right B A start

Just because we use cheats doesn't mean we're not smart

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



You are always trying to keep it real

I'm in love with how you feel

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



We both have shiny happy fits of rage

You want more fans, I want more stage

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



Don Quixote was a steel driving man

My name is Adam I'm your biggest fan

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



Squinched up your face and did a dance

You shook a little turd out of the bottom of your pants

I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else

But you



Du du du du du du dudu

Du du du du du du dudu

Du du du du du du dudu du

But you

Answer 6

it means that

the person is so beautiful that there is no one else people could be into.. i hope that made since and they dont see anything in anyone in the world but that person

Answer 7

yeah that's a pretty confusing line.

i think that it means that the person [singing] doesn't find anyone as interesting or amazing as said person ("you").

he/she sees what he/she wants to see, and what he/she wants to see is that person.as if no one else matters.



i hope that helps a little.

Answer 8

it means like, i don't see how anyone could see good things in anyone else, cause i only see them in you.

Answer 9

haha, i thought i knew but i don't.

you're right that is really randomn.

maybe i'll search around and if i find something, i'll let you know.



ps. i do love that song though :P

nice choice.

Answer 10

I don't see how anyone can want other people, when you're so great.

Answer 11
