Hey everyone! Your girl is back! I've been away because I recently moved countries, but I'm back now with my entry for week 20 titled Cry Me a River by Ella Fitzgerald."
"Cry Me a River" is a classic torch song, famously performed by Ella Fitzgerald. The song expresses deep sorrow and heartbreak over a failed relationship. The narrator sings about how their former lover is now regretful and wants to rekindle their relationship, but it's too late. The phrase "cry me a river" symbolizes the overwhelming emotions the lover must feel, but the narrator is resolute, showing no sympathy. It's a powerful anthem of independence, loss, and the refusal to give someone another chance after being hurt.
