The song "All A Woman Needs" by Joan Armatrading tells the story of a man who is deeply in love with a woman and does everything he can to show his affection. He brings her flowers every day, calls her every night, and gives her everything she needs. However, he fails to understand that love is what she truly desires. Although he holds her in his arms, he does not express his love verbally, believing that it can come later. He mistakenly thinks that fulfilling her material needs is enough to win her heart. However, the woman knows that love is all she needs. She values emotional connection and wants to be properly wooed and cherished. The song suggests that a man's desire to own a woman by providing for her is not enough. A woman desires to be cared for emotionally and her needs extend beyond material comfort. Thus, if the man does not understand this and fails to express his love, he will never truly win her heart. Overall, "All A Woman Needs" highlights the importance of emotional connection and shows that love and affection cannot be replaced by material offerings.
