rope bridge crossing

[rocket_ships]

is anyone else in love with this song?

i never see it mentioned.

i think it's the tops.

[Lite Sneeze]

Me too!

It took me a while, but after a while it really got me.

Both sound & lyrics.

Do you too think that this song is about someone who is blind or has become blind?

I love the guitar intro, and the way she sings is amazing.

PS: Fascinating sig! What the hell is it about?

I like the sound of her vocals here..like towards the end, it has this asphyxiated or choked quality to it..

"...bridge.. crossing over..sssssunny mountain..swollen river.....fall.."

"you said 'I'd be there'"


*chills*


tethered..

Yep, it's a beaut. Kinda slinky, kinda sad, kinda crystalline.

Maybe not about blindness, but definitely about having to "tread carefully," to negotiate a tricky path, a shaky rope bridge...

Another thing is that this is maybe one of those songs where Peej sings as a man, even though the lyrics are universal. "You said, 'I'll be a lady...'"

[Tethered2it]

yea..that's a good insight.

I didn't really notice that before..

I love those songs with the shifting viewpoints..male to female.. female to male..first person to third person, etc.

it serves to universalize (if that is a word) the songs.


see ya..

hubcap...crystalline...that's such a perfect description! I absloutely love Dance Hall at Louise Point...it's my fave polly album...

[rocket_ships]

yay! i'm glad to see that there are other fans of this tune.

it has a sort of sullen, dirty, haughty vibe that i just love.

tethered2it, i love the part you mentioned as well. it's so sexy!

lite sneeze, thanks for complementing my sig. it's something i stole from superbad.com. you should all visit that site if you havent already, it's trippy.

rocket_ships: not only the sig is curious, but the (bi)location as well?

southerngirl: manic phase, thanks.
