August of 2000 on the CD "You Were Here".

I was riding with my girlfriend in the car and this was on the radio. My girlfriend was singing along and doing a pretty good job until I heard her sing "there's holes in all the bottoms of my long skirts." I almost went off the road from laughing. She seriously thought that was the line. I had to replay it a couple times before she would agree she had it wrong.

I first saw this song the first time MuchMusic played it, 3:30 AM, after watching TV all night underground... my lungs hurt and the furnace wasn't warming me up... I was a jaded 27-year-old warehouser with a BA and it almost made me cry.

This song came out when I was in middle school and I mainly loved it for the tune. Now that I'm a underemployed university-graduate, living on her own for the first time at the age of 25, I feel like I can finally relate to this song.

LOL! xD

My lungs still hurt ;-)

My initial interpretation was about depression, either her own, or as a result of the loss of her boyfriend at the time.

Either way, she was sad for a long time, until she pulled herself out of it on her own :)

Why is this video titled "Kate Maki"?  It's clearly Sarah Harmer....hmmm?
