"I Never loved you anyway"

[elisa]

When Andrea sings "Valentino......", are they referring to Rudolph Valentino (silent movie actor)? Because I have always wondered about that, thanks!

I think that your exactly right, Elisa; it is the silent movie actor, Rudolf Valentino, one of the first sex symbols of the film era. He is reputed to be a great lover. Therefore, the beau about which Andrea sings was NOT!

Valentino once said, "Women are not in love with me but with the picture of me on the screen. I am merely the canvas on which women paint their dreams."

I think Valentino was also mentioned in the song "Manic Monday" by the Bangles (written by Prince) in which Susanna Hoffs sings about "kissing Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream."
