This is haunting. How is she not big? She's as talented as Tori Amos or Sarah Mclachlan. It's really surprising.

Happy has done so many beautiful, meaningful songs. I can only hope she is continuing to write and sing, To me she is the best unknown (or known for that matter) of the last decade. Perfection.

Wow, interesting!

Yeah, I figured it was about a death of someone close, this makes more sense. Still a great song writer and singer.

This song is about how horrible she felt when she had to put one of her beloved cats to sleep, struggling with the thought, was it the right thing to do? She's talking to her kitty.
The "filling up my eyes" means looking at pictures of the deceased cat...pictures don't give comfort, she want her cat back, but it was sick, but she killed him, but it saved the cat suffering, but she killed him....just a awful, awful awful choice to make.
I don't know what the lyrics are there at around 2:30.

I noticed you deleted your other comment asking for lyrics so maybe you found them, but just in case, you can always go to ecto . org / lyrics (remove spaces) to get her lyrics.

I think it's better too ! I love so much listening to her live (from my computer of course, because I live in France and I really doubt that I'd be someday lucky enough to listen to her live here ! ;-()
When she sings live, there's something really refined. Her voice, her guitar, it's quite enough.

will she be coming to n.y. anytime soon? would love to see her do a double bill with meridith monk.

Nope, no processing at all. I shot with a single camera and recorded 4 channels of audio (stereo audience mics and stereo feed from the soundboard). The only processing was a small amount of reverb that the live sound guy George added. Live, she sounds exactly like she does here.
