Its just wandering around aimlessly at the end, her voice pulls it together.

Agreed.  Rumor has it she weighs 98 pounds, 75 of those being her liver. . .

whoa, such a NICE seque from that JJ Cale "Guitar Man" song.  I have heard this Lucinda songs many times, but for some reason today the first few notes sounded like the beginning of Alabama 3 "Woke Up This Morning" (which would have also been a totally smooth transition!)

I thing that the clue lies here:

Are you down babe
Down with that?

Perhaps a Williams / Whitehouse duo CD could be used to put prisoners to death, negating the need for the lethal injection. Doesn't this sound like the Zoloft commercial? (the part where they guy is about to slit his own throat ?)

 

I think Winehouse could take more than one lethal injection and still walk to church the next morning.
