  • Beautiful !

  • @chandin69 The song is written from the point of view of the child who is being physically abused. "they only hit until you cry"

  • there is some Lou reed's Berlin in this song

  • @chandin69 It's about child abuse. Suzanne later said that although it was originally written about a young boy being beaten, she sees it as being anti-abuse in general.

  • @chandin69 That's what it is according to Wikipedia. It makes sense. Brilliant song, can't stop listening to it at the moment.

  • whats the story behind this song? someone told me its about domestic violence is that right?

  • As we realize the meaning of this song's lylics in advance, such purely acoustic performance gives us much deeper impact. It's really really impressed one for me !!

  • Suzanne's voice is better than ever.
