Pop Song of the Week: "Hate Me"

No, I am not an addict but I've gone through enough suicidal periods in my life that I really, really would not like to end up becoming the type of person who would have this video played at his funeral. Or for that matter, at his mother's funeral.

I must admit to having been surprised to learn quite recently that the song is not about the relationship between the protagonist and his ex-girlfriend but rather the relationship between him and his mother. But then I have had a lot of surprises in my life as of late. This one was rather pleasant by comparison.
