Stella's Song

Although not all of the lyrics fit Stella it is very obvious how this video fits with her character. She would never be a person who would cheat on Stanley but I do think she feels reassured when he hits her. It lets her know that he can protect her and in someways lets her know he cares. She really does feel that the only reason he gets so mad is because he cares about her and doesn't want to lose her. The end of the song really fits when it talks about them making up and making her his own. When Stanley makes up with Stella that is exactly what happens he makes sure she is his and they both know they want to be together.

Interesting choice. This is the Motels version of the song, for anyone who's wondering. (The Motels did "Only the Lonely" way, way back in the 80s.) A more recent cover was done by Courtney Love's group, Hole. The original was by The Crystals.
