The Piña Colada song carves a trajectory across the chart over the course of the song.

Every Step You Take is so far on the right that it doesn’t show on the chart.
“I Will Always Love You” is further left than I would have expected it to be
Bittersweet memories, and not being what you need right now clouds the message compared to other songs on here.
Agreed, it should be at least “yes” for both “do I like you” and “do you like me” but “no!!” for “do I like me”
Creep by Radiohead and Creep by TLC both kind of work here. Huh.
Fairytale of New York starts top right and ends bottom left
I’d like to see a sequel to this comic that actually does plot the trajectories of songs that have story development:
- The Pina Colada Song
- Fairytale of New York
- Scenes from an Italian Restaurant
- Paradise by the Dashboard Light
etc.
Isn’t Call me Maybe the one with the twist at the end of the music video where the guy turns out to be gay?
Yeah seriously why is it in the unclear/neutral category for “you like me” instead of “No!”
Because that twist is in the video, not the song.
That’s the music video not the song itself I think.
Whose POV does this describe for Somebody I Used To Know?
deleted by creator
But it is represented on this graph
I would have placed “That don’t impress me much” further left, actually.
What does it say about a person who can hum or pick out almost any of these songs but never could have plotted a single one?
He forgot far down left “Warriors of the World” from Manowar
I kinda love this. I think this could become an organizational system for all relationship songs, sort of like the Dewey decimal system.
I wanna see where Stan is on this graph
