meaning of the song used to love you sober
Used to Love You Sober The song describes someone going through a breakup of a relationship, that the only way he can get love off his mind is by drinking, and that being drunk is the only way he doesn't feel like he's still in love.[8]
Bartender (Dave Matthews Band song) The song is about a person who, while talking to a bartender, deals with thoughts of their own death. In an interview with the Rocky Mountain News, Matthews said he liked the concept of a bartender as a God/Jesus figure to which to confess and get absolution. In the song, the protagonist tells others not to have certain feelings about him/her if he/she goes before his/her time. "Bartender" was the first song performed by the band after the August 2008 death of saxophonist LeRoi Moore.[1]
