Thank you

1975 we bought you an album with a song

Can't do nothin' without my babe
Yea plain as can be

See trouble with me

Overall Meaning

J-Reverse Vs Black Legend's song "You See The Trouble With Me" is a classic disco tune that expresses the frustration and fear of losing someone dear. The opening lines of the song suggest the nostalgia of an album from 1975, which could represent a memory of a love lost. The lyrics repeat many times the phrase "Can't do nothin', can't feel nothin'," indicating a sense of helplessness and emptiness without the significant other.


The chorus then starts with "See the trouble with me," which could be interpreted as an acknowledgment that the singer is aware that they have difficulty functioning without their partner. The line "Put your hands together" makes the song interactive and encourages the listener to participate in the song's upbeat rhythm. The song concludes with the same phrase "This girl's gonna drive me crazy," which emphasizes the distress and mental torment caused by longing for someone.


Overall, "You See the Trouble with Me" captures the essence of heartbreak, the deep sense of loss and the yearning for someone who seems out of reach.
