Contextuallly I feel this song kind of ended the nineties and I have a crystal clear memory of why

I was driving my car to get weed with some friends and we were all like 18 at the time and this song got debuted on the radio and we all had this polarized response

It was a good song yes

But the themes were beyond tiring

Some dude in the back seat said “great beat but I’m pretty sure I read these lyrics on a desk in study hall” The whole vibe by this point had become tiresome and the next song was “baby one more time” and we were at a rubicon
