what& #39;s a story behind a popular song that you think about often? mine is that the guy who wrote Hey There Delilah wasnt dating Delilah at all. He met her once & wrote the song & she was like "uh cool song about how we& #39;re in love please don& #39;t kill me haha". I think about it A Lot.

and then Matt Lauer asked Delilah if she was more excited to watch a guy she met ONCE win a Grammy for a song he wrote about her, or for HERSELF FOR COMPETING IN THE OLYMPICS. the headline simply referred to her a "muse" and not "olympic athlete." sexism in the late 2000s was lit
