The One I Love
It doesn’t matter how many times people dedicate R.E.M’s 1987 song “The One I Love” to their loved ones; contrary to common belief, it isn’t a love song. The song depicts emotional abuse between individuals and being constantly exploited as a “prop,” and it is essentially the polar opposite. The song is “very vicious,” according to Michael Stipe, the band’s main vocalist, who told Musician magazine. It’s quite apparent that it’s all about repurposing people.”

Take Me Home
Phil Collins’ “Take Me Home” is without a doubt one of his most well-known songs. Most people, however, misread the song’s content, thinking it’s about a man coming home. However, this is not the case. The song was inspired by the 1975 psychological thriller One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. The lyrics hint to a patient in a mental hospital, thus it’s about a man coming home.
