@ProfessionalWidow83 it doesn't sound strange at all. I sat alone in the sunlight today, sipping hot coffee from a paper cup outside a fast food place, just mellowing out after an emotionally challenging day at work, and in every stanza her words pulled something hidden from deep inside out into the sunlight. It felt like emerging from a cocoon. at the same time, her voice slid down my spine, unwinding knots and I felt like her voice was singing the sunshine and I a lullaby!
This is the first song I've heard by Ani DiFranco. I'm impressed. Definitely different and unique. It's hard to find music that actually has meaning these days.
Favorite line.... "The only difference between you and me baby is I get fucked up when I am alone."

I have this song on loop right now. When all technology is without power, it is on loop in my brain

@shemanicmaid when I can't sleep, this is what I turn on in my mind. It may sound strange, but it works.

very beautiful.
i heard lots of music(grunge,rapmetal,etc.), but also like these simply songs that touch your heart, without sounding ordinary. so you'r not alone
