Take That: ”Back For Good” (Lipstick marks on coffee cups)

Bill and Frank’s Guilt-Free Pleasures

We're going back to 1995 for this gem. Frank recounts how this song pushed him to take a stand and declare his love for ballads. Our visiting Guilt-Free Pleasures scholar Dr. Andrew Pendakis also sends his analysis of the lyrical content of "Back for Good." We also take some time to reflect on the music video and give some general advice on whether this song is a good template for apologizing to your romantic partner.
