<< I have always assumed that c&s was so called because of the 'spark' there

'courting'. I didn't think of these words as being unrelated- at least not
to me. >>
True, Colin...I guess what I was trying to explain was that you while the
words DO relate, especially in terms of the song, one wouldn't typically pair
those words; they're not generally considered synonyms or antonyms, and
certainly would not be closely associated like "shadows" & "light".
Also both "court" & "spark" could have a HOST of definitions; they can both
be nouns/verbs etc.
Do you think that "court" and "spark" mean the same thing in terms of how
Joni employs them in the song?

PS: I'm certainly glad she chose Court & Spark as the title as opposed to
"Puppy & Shit" ! :~D
