 Mirrors I've been noticing that there are so many songs that talk about mirrors/looking glasses. Why? So many! Lol.

Re: Mirrors Never really noticed that, lol... Am wondering now tho, would that mostly be in a particular genre or is that in all music in general?

Re: Mirrors The only thing I can honestly think of is a common theme, as well as common symbolism between them all.

Re: Mirrors I guess that's based on the fascination you can feel about mirrors - even though they are so common. It's a wonder of nature: a perfect image of you that moves with you and yet is the absolute opposite of you. It can reflect light to the darkest places and you can use it to look at other places, e.g. around the corner  . The fascination came with the first mirrors ever and it is still there I guess.
