hi i have just listened to this song slow boat to china as some one recommend it and it made me think who is this song about some say arissa but i guess only he will know.
who do you think this song is about
Probably a fictional character but drawing on his many experiences of break-ups but if I remember correctly the female in the song is dumping the male? I'll have to go and have a listen now to refresh my memory. Any excuse!
Back in my misspent youth, I was with a band, and we wrote a few songs - I wrote the lyrics. Sometimes they were based on my own experiences, but often they were based on the experiences of my friends. So it may be that this was Steven's experience, or maybe the feelings/experience of someone close to him. Who can say?
Has anyone considered that maybe it was about a past love that couldn't be at that time? If you listen to some of his other songs you will hear more than one about a lost love.
Better have been loved and lost then not being loved at all..all his songs have messages in there ..like that one 'girl it's alright' its an very special one i think..isnt that right Brutus..
