Nostradomus wrote:If something like "you and me" bothers you, a lot of Em's lyrics must. There's so much improper English in MMLP2. For example, "there's no rhyme or no reason for nothing" is a double negative. And in Legacy, "I used to be the type of kid THAT would always think the sky is falling", "that" should be "who".
It's funny these also kind of bother me sometimes but I figure out ways to justify Em's grammar to make it tolerable. For example, with the Legacy example, I tell myself that Em purposely used "that" because as a kid, he hasn't discovered himself as a person yet, he was more of a mere object than a person with an identity so that is why he couldn't use "who" which would mean he had fully discovered himself. Lol I know it's dumb
