Sad, retrospective and vulnerable. This bass part is speaking to me along with her sincere voice. I love the tone of her voice. It's heartbreaking and sorrowful to me. When I hear this...it's raining and puddles are dancing in small waves. Windows are crying with rain tears and I am reminded why I'm lucky to be inside...and somehow I don't want the scenario to end.

Totally reminded me of Neil Young's magnum opus "Cortez the Killer"... and Wiki page mentions Neil Young as one of her main influences. Beautiful.

Whereas you forgot that Heisenberg's uncertainty principle requires the re-scaling h/(2π) of the Planck constant. My icecube just rolled over in the glass of Tanq 10. |

This song captures a commonplace feeling, and I'm glad she captured it so well.

bob, Kathleen hails from my home town of Ottawa. She does plain speak incredibly well. Own the first 3 CDs; will buy the 4th soon. Naturally, I discovered her through some funky web-based radio out of Paradise, CA. The CRTC didn't need to tell me what to listen to. global village |

This is simply lovely. It completely pulled me away from something else I was concentrating on and MADE me come and pay full attention. Have no idea who Kathleen Edwards might be, but I will find out.

I like this, but can you occasionally play Lucinda Williams?

That one vocalist can elicit a response like longing is a pretty powerful kudo. Bumping this to 9. She moves me in ways I cannot even describe in words.
Oh, I don't know there, Cynaera. I think you pretty much nailed it. The more I hear from K.E., the more I'm drawn in, or perhaps swept away. |

Clicked through radio paradise to Amazon.ca, ordered 3 copies of this CD and bought one copy each of the previous CDs. Then I discovered she has a new CD out. Later.... Read an interesting review on Amazon.ca by somebody who loved everything but found some of the production a little rough. To me this sounds great but I can easily see Steven Wilson producing Kathleen Edwards with good effect. |

I bought the album on the strength of this song and am not disappointed.

Nostalgia. The pull of people and times past. A life well lived I'd say.
