Beth Orton Central Reservation

It don't matter what she is, the music is great and that is all that matters.

oh the subtext easy on this one. There are many out there that would accept her love/her dance/her red dress - but the one she wants to give it to wants no part of it.

Such is love - such is life.

"Orton has been romantically linked with a number of high profile musicians, including William Orbit and Ryan Adams.[14] Adams' songs "English Girls Approximately", "You Will Always Be The Same" & "Friends/For Beth" were written about her.
Orton gave birth to a daughter, Nancy, in mid-December 2006"

fantastic beth orton!.also love her original track with finlay quay.. the dice.amazing voice.

ew, gross, i don't really think that's what the song is trying to say

Ditto, LOVE the Song and what a Video!

Love the video and the song...who gives a crap what you 'read' into this song...don't think about things so much your brain might explode! Love the song and video!

"This song is whatever you want it to mean."

I get that point but you seemed to make out in your original comment that "last nights red dress" was also a lesbian reference. Anyhow I pretty sure she isn't a lesbian she has been "romatically linked"
to a number of male artists. She also uses the word fingers in Stolen Car on the same album with, "your fingers like fuses". It could be a veiled lesbian reference. But she probably just likes the way she can inflect her voice when saying fingers. As she does this in both songs.

wtf
