A picture of a Merman kissing a naked human lady. What a strong passion for love, huh. Maybe it has something to do with love after all? By all means, it brought us back to the classic Disney tale of Little Mermaid or any other mermaid tales if you happen to know. As cliche as it is, we all know how Ariel the mermaid is longing to go on land even though her dad, the king of the sea won't allow her to and what more? to even meet the prince. Alas, Ariel met the witch to exchange her voice with a pair of legs in order to get to her prince. It shows that she would do anything for the sake of love even though the price comes with her precious voice. Maybe, well just MAYBE in Bill's world of imagination,
..he put himself in Ariel's shoes. A merman who desire to love an unreachable human through a forbidden love. The love that he longs for would be so damn hard to reach and what more when he is a creature of the sea and she is a mortal. Setting a Merman as a character, maybe he thought that for a human with a unique soul like him, it seemed impossible to have fallen in love that easily with merely a human. He seeks for an unconditional love, the one who will accept him for who he really is, the true nature of his, certainly not him as a Rockstar. And when he met this special someone, he might lose his voice or shall i say, down goes his singing career just to prove his devotion towards their love. Calm down, now. May I remind you, this is only an assumption. The tattoo might represent something else, a story that only our favourite Rockstar would share or keep :)
Have you ever thought of the possibility of the "merman" actually being a mermaid?:D
ReplyDeleteJust thinking...
haha yes! it could be a mermaid because the initial drawing was actually a mermaid kissing a girl, lol. but somehow, i called it a merman for Bill's tatt because of its masculinity ;)
