Bed of Roses is 10000% a power ballad. I think there’s an element of “how much would a 17 year old girl with a super intense crush be deeply moved by this song” is an important element of power balladism.

I told him it was because a 1200 page mass market paperback is almost impossible to hold, which is true, but more importantly I was getting a rush of embarrassment every time I picked up the tv promo edition.

Since they're both baseball-human hybrids, it's less of an abomination than that time Dinger tried to chat her up.

The song is misleading - you can’t just agree to meet at the fair, you need to pick a specific point or you’ll never cross paths. I suggest the horticulture hall.
