| Ani DiFranco – Talk to Me Now Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
This song makes me think that Ani may have been raped, or maybe threatened at some point of her life. Perhaps this song is about surviving that. Does anyone know?
oh, and yeah...it's fantastically beautiful. |

Awsome song, and what a wonderful analogy with the story of the book. To me, the baobabs growing out of control mean the city that is threatning to live in and raise your kids in. And, in the beggining the part about taming is perhaps, that she has been tamed by a man...she is in love...and cannot be protected because she has no thorns...(just like the rose in the book) |

I think that supaqeo is right, I think it is based on the play, but Regina emphazises on how oedipus probably felt like being rejected and struggles to come out and count. |

you know what else I love about this song besides the perfectly engineered lyrics...? It's the strength of her voice that helps the message get through. This is a fucking awsome song, but then again...Ani is a total genious on every single one of her songs. |

lecky, I completely agree with your view...That's exactly what it means to me, but I never quite got the "come on daddy" part. The way you state it makes much sense.
It's such a sad song, but again...like everyone has stated, with such a beatiful melody. |

| Regina Spektor – Buildings Lyrics

I think that she is an alcoholic, and he is sticking by her side. The tall buildings part is a metaphor that talks about how different things are now, and how hard it is for her to cope with the world as it is, thus...she drinks to forget about it all. But, he sticks by her...and give her time to get herself together. So sweet. |

This song is FUCKING amazing! Ani, you are a genious. The lyrics, the sound...everything about it is lovely.
It gave me goosebumps the first time I heard it. |
