Like all of you I am sure, I have listened to this song probably hundreds if not thousands of times but today I noticed something I had never noticed before.
Each time Diana sings the title line, she pronounces "can't" as if it had an "i" in it. As a result, it comes out sounding Southern, like "cain't." She is very consistent with that throughout the song.
However, there are two other places in the song where the word "can't" is sung as part of a different lyric. But in both cases, she pronounces the word as "can't." There is a very distinct difference.
Do we think this was done deliberately? Anyone else ever noticed it and has it perhaps been discussed on here before?
