Can someone explain Space Bound please?

[Jaz]

Sweatheart, sometimes people lie in interviews because they don't want people to know their business.

Also, there is no Easter bunny.

SWEETheart ( ) you're a fucking idiot.

He would just decline to answer the question if he didn't want anyone to know, like he does when people ask about his daughters.

Right.. because when you do that it wouldn't just be assumed that you meant yes but didn't want to say it.. Get real.

The song is about a chick, whether she be real or not. /end

I think the song is about a girl not drugs but I'm sure it's not about Kim. This song is similar to Crazy in Love ( I guess it is not about Kim too). Love the way you lie and Love you more are about Kim and the songs sounds similar. However maybe in Space Bound Eminem's trying to relate to Ronny's situation in relationship. It can be about Ronny's and eminem's experiences in relationship.
In my opinion it's not about drugs, "after a year and six months " time it probably is the time his soberiety but it means that the girl didn't feel the same to him when he was on drugs so he decided to be sober and after it she still doesn't want him.It could be that way. And perhaps when he talks about killing her and his suicide it can be a methaphor that he will do what it takes to make her stay with him and he will never give up...

I've heard and read many rumours about his new girlfriends after second divorce. And I'm sure that Space Bound is not about Kim. He mentioned about her in Going through changes and the whole Love the way you lie is about their abuse relationship.

[KaRtLiDgE]

Intro:
He wants this girl very badly. He trusts her, but doesn't want to leave himself vulnerable to being hurt.
"Cause if I get burnt, I'ma show you what its like to hurt
Cause I been treated like dirt before ya
And love is evil
Spell it backwards I'll show ya "

1st Verse:
He talks about his bad past. That is the reason he says he stays alone by his choice. Has no love, shows no emotion. He's tried before with no luck, and it's just as hard as he thought it would be to try again. "It sucks but it's exactly what I thought it would be like tryin' to start over." Then he says he badly wants her. Doesn't necessarily mean he fell in love, it's just that she is amazing to him. Almost like a prize.

2nd Verse:
He explains WHAT HE THOUGHT it would be like with her.
"I'll do whatever it takes, when I'm with you, I get the shakes
My body aches when I ain't with you, I have zero strength
There's no limit on how far I would go, no boundaries, no lengths
Why do we say that until we get that person that we think's
Gonna be that one and then once we get 'em, it's never the same"
(So basically he's saying that you think the first four lines are how you are going to feel with her, but once he got her, it wasn't like that at all. He's not explaining how much he is in love.)
"It's not a contest and I ain't on no conquest for no mate
I wasn't lookin' when I stumbled onto you, musta been fate... let's cut to the chase"
Now that he has her, he is willing to drop his front of showing no emotion. Meaning he is going to show her that he indeed has feelings for her. But is still scared.

3rd Verse:
Now further down the road in the relationship, a long time after he let down his front (dropped the tough guy with no emotion act.) She doesn't want him anymore. He regrets leaving himself vulnerable. "I poured my heart out to you. Let down my guard." He begs her not to leave, she don't listen. He then gets so angry he starts killing her. He stopped before he killed her, "Tears streamed down both of my cheeks, then I let you just go..."

Bridge:
He tells her that he loved her so much before he kills himself. Make her feel sorry.

Its a greatly written love story. Showing how love is evil (evol). In the intro, its almost like telling us what the song is going to be about. Great foreshadowing. It is definitely not about drugs, but if you want to give it a metaphoric under-meaning, how about hip-hop or going back to the spotlight.

Verse 1:
He doesn't show or doesn't admit that he wants/needs it, but he really thinks hip-hop is so amazing and he wants it badly.
Verse 2:
Debating on whether or not to go back to it. He starts by admitting to himself he wants to do it, but he doesn't want to be burned by it again. (Hating the fame, not spending time with his kids, getting addicted to pills, losing Proof...)
Verse 3:
Now he's back in the game and in the spotlight. He feels he isn't wanted or appreciated in the game. (Possibly Relapse period) So he leaves (kills himself)

Tracks 8 - 14: Hip-Hop Story

I think Seduction is Em saying that hip-hop desperately needed him back before he started writing Relapse.
No Love is how Em felt when he first came back when he was writing Relapse. OR talking to other rappers. They showed him no respect while he was gone and not one was wanting him to come back. A lot of trash in the game. Lil Wayne feature makes it more likely this is the message.
Space Bound is the story of him coming back, Relapse being looked at as a failure, and him leaving.
Cinderella Man is his new beginning. How good he feels now.
25 to Life is him saying he is leaving hip-hop because of all the shit it's put him through. Not to stop rapping, but to lose his love for this fictional woman. He's not a slave to the game anymore.
So Bad is him rubbing it in "her" face.
Almost Famous is how he first came in independent. He feels free again. The way he did before he got his foot into the rap game. Somewhere along the line, he became a slave to the game.

i didnt read through all these besides the first page but the answer to someones question


yes, you can have a 7 disk cd changer in your car (from seduction)
well mines 6 but i also have one right above that just plays one cd..so i can fit and listen to 7 cds without worrying about taking them out

His album is called "Recovery" so it means that mostly his songs are about the road to recovery. Maybe he felt like he had to write Space Bound to show that he's not that kind of tough guy and he can has deep feelings for someone or another option Space bound can be a warning for his future girlfriend, I mean what would happen when they are together and that probably in the end she will leave him like every girl before( lyrics: " I've been treated like dirt before ya"). And the lyrics is : " I love you so much, it hurts. Never mistreated you once." This line is a proof that it can't be about Kim. I wonder who is this song about ?

So Love the way you lie is about his relationship with Kim but he shows another point of view. He wanted to say that in that kind of relationship people feel love too, not only hate for someone.

Almost famous can be about his whole career , about every step he made in the game.

It look like No love is about how he felt as a rapper before and how he feels about it now.

Going through changes is definietly the song where he explains what was happening in his mind and he apologizes his daughters and Kim. It was probably one of the step of his road to recovery.

In Talking to myslef he admits that he had a drug problem and shows how he coped with that in his mind.

Like someone said some of his songs can have many different meanings. It just depends from the person who listen to it.

But Space Bound has to be about a girl. He even didn't use words like "bitch" or "slut" there, so it means that in this song he's expoing his real feelings.

However Eminem, made on this album very twisted lyrics. He probably did it on purpose to make people think about his songs. it's hard to say in which songs we can interpret normally and in which we have to think about deeper interpretation. Because in some songs we can go too far and misinterpret them.

I Love reading throught 10 page threads .........

my curse

So you're saying Eminem would lie in an interview. Doubtful. I mean... he has lied about his age in a 1999 interview but apart from that he has been honest. He generally doesn't lie, just omits the truth sometimes.

If Eminem had a girlfriend and didn't want anyone to know, and if he was asked about it, he wouldn't LIE in an interview and say "you know what... I'm not really looking for relationships" (which is what he said... not an exact quote though). He would plead the fifth.

He's an extremely prvate person for someone famous, so who knows what he hides or doesn't hide.
In any case, there was a relapse interview (maybe one in a mag?) where he had said he had just gotten out of a long relationship, but wasn't seeing anyone. So... he could have been talking about his marriage (which was like 2 years before that) or some other relationship.

In any case, I don't see why people get so angry about other people having a different opinion. We don't know this dude; we are just analyzing a song.

I don't look at the gender of every person I reply to. I guess that I'm NOT a sexist?

What she said seemed insulting to me, and I replied in turn.

THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT THING. READ IT !!!

I know that it's a topic about Space Bound song but I think this woman has something to do with it.
Have you heard about this girl Marissa Cirillo ? She dated Eminem and was with him in an on and off relationship for about 3 years. That's what I heard. On the Internet is many rumorus about her ( ex. she made sextape with rapper Dolla , what is NOT true) ! Someone said something about Spend some time . I've always knew that it couldn't be about Kim so it has to be about Marissa.

My friend is a big Eminem's fan and she loves to read about his personal life. She found Marissa Cirilo on twitter( THAT'S HER TWITTER : http://twitter.com/MarissaCirillo ) and she always check what that woman writes about Em. There are many jealous crazy Em's fans who hate Marissa because she used to be with Eminem. And probably they are still keep in touch 'cause my friend saw on twitter about February 2010 that Marissa talked to some girl. Marissa wrote something about going to Detroit and that he's sending a jet for her and he's still calling. It was obvious that "he" it means Eminem.

Then my friend told me about Marissa's sarcastic hints and tweets about Eminem. On June Marissa was in Deroit again and some girl was getting jealous. Marissa tweeted her that she knows that Em wrote some songs about her and some verses on Recovery can be about her too. She said that she broke up with Eminem and admitted that she broke his heart and she knows what he still feels for her.

After researchs by my crazy friend I think that Marissa was with Eminem but probably after songs like Spend some time and Crazy in love she broke up with him and it looks like she doesn't want to be with him ANYMORE but maybe they are still friends or maybe Em wants her back.
I just think that this Space Bound song can be about Marissa and Em trys to keep in touch with her and calls to her to show her he wants her back !

SO WHAT DO YOU ALL THINK ABOUT IT ??

No. Sorry. Marissa hasn't been in contact with him for years, she says it herself, people take the talk about her ex as being about Em, but it's not. She also dated a Detroit ball player. She knows people are taking her tweets as about Eminem so she started clarifying to people.

Oh and at your multicolored post

But you can't deny that this bitch uses weird Eminem allusions in order to stay relevant.

Yup. And whenever people bring her name up, it seems like they are planting info.
