doesn’t have one or two drinks, she drinks until she loses control of herself. The girl drinks excessively in order to make her problems go away, similar to the man in the song “Red, Red Wine”. UB40 recorded the pop/soft rock song “Red, Red Wine” in 1968. It explains how a man is heartbroken and it leads to him drinking Red Wine until it makes him feel better or until he forgets.

This first story…
