    his "never gonna give you up" is mentioned in the LIE domain.

    I was thinking Caregiver for him, but at the same time, in his interviews he doesn't really seem Fe.

    I just think you have a strange momentary obsession with Rick Atsley

    Your views on IEIs appear to be kinda rough, and you need to understand our complexity more. That song is not very romantic/lovey at all, despite what he's singing, I'm just not really feeling the emotional (romantic) impact of the music. There is no real connection with the audience, that's why it's a good 'gotcha' vid. It's widely used for internet pranks too... and since the IEI is versatile and dominant in our ability to understand romantic concepts, I don't think you could effectively do that with an IEI's music. He says 'You're shy' very crude-like, which is not what an IEI would do at all since we're sensitive to the intricacities (sp? lol) of what it actually means to in fact, be shy. It's like it's so bad because he can't even effectively realize the ridiculousness and anti-romanticism of what he's actually signing about. Is it function related or just some weird 80s thing? Hell if I know.

    Of course what he's performing doesn't necessarily reflect anything about his personality, but his personality as a performer makes any IEI-ness fall flat to me.

    It's a bit too... upbeat for an IEI in a way that I cannot explain. Gamma or Alpha SF is much more likely.

    Do you have any other info on his private/personal life? I've tried to research shit but couldn't find any.

    The amount of people being typed IEI lately is pathetic. It's not even funny anymore.

    Great post Mimosa.

    Hmm. A Beta Romantic song (It's upbeat but still very romantic to me) is 'Don't Let it Go to Your Head' by Fefe Dobson. Or maybe I'm just biased to her music. Paris Hilton 'Stars are Blind' is also extremely romantic to me lol. (Despite what people say about her personally that song definitely rocks.)

    It's romantic because it's constantly striving for a better love, while remaining that bittersweet tension. 'Never gonna give you up' is too smothering and isn't something an IEI would do AT ALL. =D See we know our IEI shit.

    Romanticsm is like the beauty of pulling away and pulling toward. (And being kinda okay with not sure mentally what you really need yet - I think that's where the SLE's Se comes along.) It's being terrified that what you're really feeling is 'too good to be true' so you kinda observe it from a distance.

    It's having somebody but not really ever having them. 'I had a porcelain doll, I held onto it too tightly' *That* is romantic. 'Never gonna give you up' is actually anti-romantic. Through the absence and being shy of love, you begin to see what love really is, how much you really think/meant to each person. That is one of the many reasons why IEIs are the masters of love and romance above all the other types.

    Oh, fun song. Did he even write that himself?

    "Never Gonna Give You Up" is a dance-pop song originally performed by Rick Astley. It was released as a single from Astley's multi-million selling debut album, Whenever You Need Somebody, which was written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman.
    Using the lyrics of a song he didn't write isn't probably the best typing method.

    I see a lot of Alpha in this. Both my ESE mother and my ILE husband are keen on promising "safety". "Commitment" is important for them. For me "commitment" and "love" are impossible to unite, somehow. I want REAL love. Unconditional love. No promises. No safety net. Just the real thing.
    Actually, I think what you're talking about is Fi. Most of his lyrics are like that - kind of cheesy and sentimental. This is a pretty good interview:

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2y69umHpdk[/ame]

    He talks about being a "real dad", being there for his kids, etc., all Fi topics. I would guess EII, or possibly ESI.

    Yeah, I think this confirms Ne. I'd say Alpha > Delta. Has that alpha NT look.

    He looks like Rick Moranis facially wise. Maybe they're the same type?
