I was disconcerted when hearing this as well--a Lesbian anthem or did I miss something in the poetry? An admission of strong envy? I admit to not knowing anything about women's feelings, especially not younger women--a phase they go through? Like LWICs (Lesbian while in college--a well-known phenomenon)?

unless you know this girl to be a lesbian
I think you're taking it wrong
I take it as a jealousy song
she envies the other woman only because she has her man
not because she has any physical attraction to the woman

^^^ If the song is about jealousy, then I don't know why "Girl Crush" is its name when a crush really means that you like the person your crush is on.

God bless you always!!!

I've got a girl crush
Hate to admit it but,
I got a hard rush
It's not slowing down
I got it real bad
I want everything she has
That smile and that midnight laugh
She's giving you now
I want to taste her lips
Yeah, cuz they taste like you
I want to drown myself
In a bottle of her perfume
I want her long blond hair
I want her magic touch
Yeah, cuz maybe then
You'd want me just as much
I've got a girl crush
I've got a girl crush
I don't get no sleep
I don't get no peace
Thinking about her
Under your bed sheets
The way that she's whispering
The way that she's pulling you in
Lord knows I've tried,
I can't get her off my mind

I have to admit when I first heard the song I thought of it being a lesbian song too. But, one of my very favorite movies is Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil. I've seen it every night this week. So, no matter how folks take the song from Little Big Town, I have no right to criticize. I loved Chablee "the Doll" in the movie MITGOGAE. She/He was a hoot :laugh: I also love Kevin Spacey and John Cusack. He is a doll!! I still like Little Big Town Confusedmile:
