This is a great song and the (fan made?) video suits it perfectly. The feel is a kind of resigned melancholy that's somehow comforting.
And it has the word "unboyfriendable".

a week or two
to go
absolutely cuckoo
then
when you see your
error
then
you can flee in
terror 🎶 🔥🔪

Two of the 35 of the #69LoveSongs played by @magneticfields.bsky.social on Friday marking the mega-album’s 25th anniversary. The other 34 are coming tomorrow. So many great lines and infectious hooks, but I think the main reason the collection holds up so well is it still sounds like nothing else.
The image shows an AI response to a Google search. The response reads: • Al Overview Ferdinand de Saussure didn't write any specific quotes about love. He was a linguist who focused on the nature of language and signs, not on emotions like love. Here are some of his most famous quotes that are related to linguistics and semiotics, not love:
Reminder that AI search results cannot always be trusted, because of COURSE de Saussure spoke on the nature of love. In my heart, I know it to be true. Don’t bulldoze my orchids, hallucinating Googlebot. #69LoveSongs
Bucket list! The Magnetic Fields performed their triple CD "69 Love Songs" over two nights for the release's 25th Anniversary Tour.
Words fail me. This music means A. Lot. lot to me. #Exquisite!

I am just in love with this wonderful and magnificent album by The Magnetic Fields, “69 Love Songs” (1999). How ambitious and commercial is this masterpiece! Can’t stop listening to “Sweet-Lovin' Man” and “The Death Of Ferdinand De Saussure”. #TheMagneticFields #69LoveSongs #MusicSky #Indie #90s

The CD car of The Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs is open across my lap. The booklet is also visible
Just dug out my CD of 69 Love Songs ~ and listening to it (as I'm inclined to do) with David's wonderful "69 Love Songs Information" wiki which had gone AWOL but luckily still exists in the Wayback Machine

The stage is set with instruments waiting. Red curtains ascend, turning into ladders or disappearing into black or blue. A man in a striped shirt, blurred, peeks under one such ladder. Text across the middle of the image reads, "Nights to Remember. The Magnetic Fields at Town Hall in New York City. read at GUTFUDUM.com"
