✨ Overview of a Classic Love Triangle
"Two Princes," by Spin Doctors, a wildly popular song from their first studio album, "Pocket Full of Kryptonite", is about the classic tale of two suitors vying for the same woman's affection. But there's more to it than that.
✨ Symbolism of Characters in the Song's Narrative
The story in this catchy tune revolves around three characters: A young lady and two men ("princes") who are deeply in love with her. One prince has wealth - diamonds and rockets, symbols of affluence and power. He appears to be the socially acceptable choice as even her father approves of him.
The other suitor don't have such material possessions or powerful status; he isn’t as wealthy but professes real love for the lady. Despite his lower social rank which would mean marrying him would lead to disapproval (even disowning) from her father, he continues to woo showing confidence in his understanding of what a lover should be.
Throughout the lyrics, these princes symbolise different kinds of partners one can choose – one offers safety and status while other offers genuine feelings despite lack in material worth.
