Greek music is full of AFC songs. But the prize HAS to go on this one, which embodies everything an AFC stands for:

rough translation of each part given, with comments

>With a couple of my verses as a pretext
>I park my vehicle and talk to you
>and you, that I know you don't care about me,
>pretend to be shaken to learn that I love you

The AFC wants to talk to his crush, and does not have the guts. Makes poems and uses them as pretext. He knows that the girl thinks of him as a neutered cactus. But still goes ahead with a love confession. No wonder the girl seems shaken!

>you are playing with my sensitivity
>but you don't pay attention to my essence
>and faced with the beats of my heart
>you claim to have other problems

AFC is a sensitive new age male. Girl messes around with him like they all do. AFC wonders why she doesn't pay attention to his "essense" (the fact that he will supplicate to her, shower her with presents, that he is nice and won't abuse her, that he will love her unconditionally and all the nonsense AFCs like to believe)
No wonder she makes up problems in her life to avoid spending time with the AFC

>And what am I asking, what am I asking,
>just a chance to go to heaven

Now that is really sad. AFC has girl so high on the pedestral that he thinks having her is like being in heaven. All he wants is a "chance". Poor AFC...

>With a couple of my verses as a pretext
>I offer to buy you a drink in the canteen
>and while you had forbidden me to come
>you were chatting with those two guys

Hmm, more poems. Offering to buy stuff just to be around. Girl forbids him to come to her, yet prefers to flirt with other, non-AFC guys.

>and then you said you were waiting for me
>you weren't waiting for me, it is my fate
>when I held you in my hands
>that's when I fell for it and you said "no"

Heh, AFC finally realises the girl is giving him ****. Decides to go for it and express himself physically. Of course that turns off girl. AFC gets rejected.


So, can anyone think of a worse case of AFCness in music?

PS: Yes, I admit that I liked that song in my AFC days!

Opera is full of them. This song is in 'The marriage of Figaro'. Count Almaviva, who wants to sleep with his servant's fiancee, has just found out that everyone else is conspiring to make sure this doesn't happen.


Vedrò mentr'io sospiro
Felice un servo mio?
E un ben che invan desio,
Ei posseder dovrà?
Vedrò per man d'amore
Unita a un vile oggetto
Chi in me destò un affetto,
Che per me poi non ha?

Ah no! lasciar in pace
Non vo' questo contento,
Tu non nascesti, audace,
Per dare a me tormento,
E forse ancor per ridere
Di mia infelicità.
Già la speranza sola
delle vendette mie
Quest'anima consola,
E giubilar mi fa.


Shall I, while I'm sighing,
See one of my servants
And the joy I want in vain,
Shall he have it?
Shall I see the woman I adore with
A feeling she doesn't have for me
United to some vile object
By the hand of love?

Ah no! I won't leave
This happiness in peace,
You weren't born, bold one,
To torture me,
And maybe to laugh
At my unhappiness.
Now only the hope
Of the revenges I'll have
Consoles my soul
And makes me rejoice.

There's worse

Actually, that "Sometimes when we touch..." song is worse.

I know I'm being a sadist for reminding you guys about its existence, but you asked for it!:p

Hmm.. saw the lyrics of "sometimes when we touch". OUCH!

Still I think mine is the best. Translation did not do enough justice to its ultimate AFCness :)

With all that crappy AFC music out there, there is no surprise that most males are the way they are nowadays!

All modern American Pop Culture = Pessism and AFCness.

(Excuse my pessism in the description, but it is true).

Heh, somebody beat me to "Sometimes When we Touch." How about "Close to You" by the Carpenters?

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?
Just like me they long to be close to you.

Check out the Daniel Bedinfield lyrics :eek:

If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed? :rolleyes:
If I don’t need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you’re not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife? :eek:

I don’t know why you’re so far away
But I know that this much is true
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you’re the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

‘Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
‘Cause I love you, whether it’s wrong or right
And though I can’t be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side....


Excuse me while I go and throw up :D

ok, youre not going to believe this, but here is the Most AFC song

THIS SONG IS RIDICULOUS, IT SHOULD BE OUTLAWED FOR ITS PATHETICNESS. ITS BY BUSTED. READ THE LYRICS AND YOU WILL LAUGH. ITS LIKE READING THE AFCS BIBLE OR SOMETHING.

Crash & Burn
(changed name to You Said No for single)

Your'e so fit and you know it
And I only dream of you
'cos my life's such a *****
but you can change it

maybe you need somebody just like me,
don't turn me down 'cos I've got no car and I've got
no money...

I asked you to dance at the disco
But you said No!
The whole world was watching and laughing
On the day that I crashed and burned...
At your feet!

Since the day you dissed me
I'm feeling so pathetic
'cos the guys... well they've ditched me
and its all because of...

you and your friends are laughing at me now
you think that Im nothing
ask your sister what you're missing!

I asked you to dance at the disco
But you said No!
The whole world was watching and laughing
On the day that I crashed and burned...
At your feet!

Maybe that you think you're too good for me
Tonight when you get home you're gonna see that
I know, I've got something better than you baby

I asked you to dance at the disco
But you said No!
The whole world was watching and laughing
On the day
I asked you to dance at the disco
But you said No!
The whole world was watching and laughing
On the day that I crashed and burned...
At your feet.
