I had to look up that song and I see what you mean... No reason to say sorry. I think it's better you got some kind of a feeling out of that shot than nothing at all.
I took that shot in a park near a market I go to. This park has two sides. One half is for the kids with the swings and slides and stuff and the other part is just grass and trees. There you can find people having a picnic or reading a book ...and quite a few alcoholics. This old guy hangs always there (with the alcoholics), and for his defence I can tell you that he doesn't hang around the kids playing in the park.
My thoughts of that shot were more about past choices, regret and missed opportunities etc. Many of these guys (and women) have had jobs, kids, families and they've lost it all because of drinking.
