It's not called Manhattan. It's actually called reprieve. And it's on her album "Reprieve".

Where did you hear that it's called Manhattan?!

anyway - Moxie - I'm not a u of M student. I took a roadtrip up to Ann Arbor for the concert and just went up early to attend the poetry reading too. I'm from the Chicago area.

i'm glad you like the vids.

i think its funny that shes reading a heavily feminist piece in a book store were the only book you can read from the shelf is the joy of cooking

I listen to this song while I work, a literal shit job to support my twins, as a single mother of perfect twins I chose to struggle for. It always bring a tear to my eye. Womens truth. Though I am sure not many understand....it's not about Borders. It's about freedom.

@nirvanamamaduck - well-said, and that's feminism at it's core.

I remember this... It was Ani's birthday :) I thought Borders was going to be packed, but only like 50 came for the reading. Great show she put on that night at the MI Theater, too! Thanks for posting...

Yeah, that's not a ridiculous exaggeration or anything. Oh and it's not funny either.

[pantalonesazul]

No, it is called Reprieve.

This is actually called Manhattan.

Thank you very much for putting it up.
