It's growing on me. Just bumped it from a 6 to a 7. That little electronica gurgle at the beginning hooked me this time. |

Thanks for spinning the good stuff!

Yeah, I agree. Though I find every album of hers that I've heard kind of uneven. |

It is stuff like this that makes RP so bloody good.
Without RP I would have gone through my life not knowing that this fantastic song even existsed. And I would be the worst for it.
Thanks Bill.   <-o< |

Put that way, I agree. (Though I do think this is a pretty thoughtful, and thus thought-provoking, song.)
Guess I just can't help myself. :-s |

Another great sounding tune by one of my faves....she knows how to put words and melodies together that stay in your mind. This is good song for a day like today, after Thanksgiving, still full of turkey, overcast day, perfect for reflection. now if I can just get the fire going...

Excellent selection.
If you like Dar solo, check out her work with Lucy Kaplansky and Richard Shindell as Cry Cry Cry. Simple songs, great stories.

With respect, I couldn't disagree more. Though there are definite areas of moral ambiguity, an agnostic response (though perhaps genuine) should only be temporary. What is right should be sought after and found.
I agree that there are areas where what is right for me is different from what is right for you, but to say that morality is always subjective is to deny any commonality between humankind. Objective morality is how we arrive at our code of law, and certain laws have been common among the world's cultures throughout history; for instance, the evils of rape, incest, murder, thievery, lies and the good of generosity, love of family, truth and justice.
Let me be clear that I do not mean to bash Islam or even any particular expression that some Muslim societies have given to the religion itself, but: there are some "Islamic states" (or so they would call themselves) in which a woman who has been raped can be killed by her own family, for having brought dishonor upon them and their name. Kind of gives the lie to some of your examples of universal morality, doesn't it?
Still like the song, and agree with kbm that the lines under discussion are not an abdication of moral responsibility but a recognition of the feelings such responsibility can sometimes incite.
