hi all. i'm listening to TI now, haven't in a while...
it's a gorgeous, moody, troubled album. her voice
is so pained here.
anyway, just now as i was playing "magdalene laundries"
at the part where she sings "our lady of charity --
oh, charity" with a planet full of anger, regret,
and sadness all in that last word --
well, i suddenly heard the last word as "cherokee,"
very clearly. although i know that's not what she sings.
and it made a perfect connection to me with "cherokee
louise" -- as if the story of these helpless women
echoes and links and reminds her of that other, horrifying,
particular story of "my friend" louise.
just a thought. has anyone else heard this or thought it?
maybe we've already discussed, and i missed it.
