Lyrically, the song falls somewhere between Raymond Carver and Raymond Chandler, and in a scant Freedy eloquently embodies a father speaking his last words to his daughter after the death murder, suicide? Short story soundtrack and tour de force. It was also featured in the movie, Kingpin. The song is his most country-influenced, which frames his homesickness well.
The harmonies are dulcet throughout, and the spare electric guitar adds just the right touches. Her having been abused? It blows despairingly blue. We like the following stanza in particular:. The guitar makes it. A prickly musical personality? Who knew? Indeed, e. Great shows by Freedy to speed that Plough. Do they have good shows there still?
Or not so much? All of this is just great stuff and a goldmine for those not initiated. This entry is filed under Music. You can also follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2. Lefort April 8, at am.
Erickson April 8, at am. Comments have been closed for this post. You are a writer, or you ache to be one. You will make big sacrifices in order to come to Clarion, to spend six weeks of your life taking your best shot.
You leave your family behind, you quit your job, you break up with your boyfriend, you spend thousands of hard earned dollars, maybe go into debt, all on a wild chance to write stories for strangers. You are taking a big risk. You may not make it. Even if you do, like a toddler learning to walk, you are going to fall down a lot before you learn to walk.
I am here to support you in that insane choice. Then the next year I had a new one-year contract which paid more than the previous year and I thought Gee I could afford to go to Clarion now. And I did. I found out I was pregnant at about the same time I found out I had gotten into Clarion. My challenges were physical and emotional. I have profound social anxieties that are hidden under a brash personality.
One of my goals is to be accepted into Clarion next year. I have already sold my birthright to go on the path to be a writer. Am I trully willing to do what it takes to get into Clarion, even it that means being on the edge of success and utter failure? Six months of looking for another job, another place to live, and doing something else for a living, there is only one thing I want to do deep down in my soul.
May I see you at Clarion You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Google account. You are commenting using your Twitter account. You are commenting using your Facebook account. Notify me of new comments via email.
