wow

Thank you! I believe you are correct in observing the analogies painted by the lyrics in China. It's a very beautiful song and she sings it so gracefully. I would like to hear it live. :-)

hello! thanx for your covers and your tutorials! they totally rock! just wanted to tell you that i don't think China is about the country or just the porcelain, i think she's using an analogy between china and an unsuccessful marriage, the cracks on a piece of porcelain seem to be the things that tear the couple appart, like infidelity, problems, etc, & even when they're right next to each other he put a wall to block her out (...you build the great wall around you)

thanx for your music

Thank you for your comments! I appreciate them. I will tell you about China (song). You are correct on both counts! In the first verse, she sings about the country, and a man getting lost in Mexico on his way back to New York. In the second verse, she sings about China decorating the table. "Funny how the cracks don't seem to show." Yes, it breaks, exactly as you said above!

...Oh, maybe it is not the country but the porcellan. And it breaks. That would make sense. It sounds interesting, but not a speaceful as I hoped.

I love your arts for giving me all these wonderful pictures and new points of view as to sounds and emotions B.

This one sounds different from what the title´s let me suppose. I was expecting sort of a mini soundtrack from my exeriences when we traveled the country last year. Ahh, it´s not good to have expectations, but I must say, I hear some kind of a journey, let´s say more a search or a search that has an end....
