Breaking Free of Love

Hey, so in my last blog, I talked about how the song Reflection by Christina Aguilera portrays Nora's character from A Doll's House. And if just incase you're wondering, yes; I have a lot of songs to choose from so all my connections will be songs.

So looking through my play list again, I realised that the song, You Lost me from Christina Aguilera, once again, also fits Nora's personality and character. Here is the link and lyrics for your convenience:

You Lost me Lyrics:
I am done
Smoking gun
We've lost it all
The love is gone


She has won
Now its no fun
We've lost it all
The love is gone


And we had magic
And this is tragic
You couldn't keep your hands to yourself


I feel like our world's been infected,
And somehow you left me neglected


We've found our lives been changed
Babe, you lost me


And we tried
Oh, how we cried
Oh, we lost ourselves
The love has died


And we had magic
And this is tragic
You couldn't keep your hands to yourself


Oh, I feel like our world's been infected
And somehow you left me neglected
We've found our lives been changed
Cause babe, you lost me


Now I know you're sorry
And we were sweet
Oh, but you chose lust when you deceived me
And you'll regret it, but it's too late
How can I ever trust you again?


I feel like our world's been infected,
And somehow you left me neglected
We've found our lives been changed
Oh babe, you lost me

In this song Christina is saying that the love she once had with someone is now gone, just like Nora and Torvald. She says "And somehow you left me neglected, We've found our lives been changed, Babe, you lost me". This reminds me of how Torvald treated Nora...Like an animal and she felt neglected by him. Then at the end of the play, Nora realises that her love for Torvald "has died", as Christina puts it, and that everything seems different from how they started off. When I hear this song, I just feel as if Nora would be singing it to Torvald as she was leaving. To let Torvald know that it was him that drove her away. To let him know that he lost her, just like Christina is singing in her song.
