No you're right KayleK, it is racoon. I bought the album today and I have the lyric booklet.

Jordin Sparks – One Step At A Time Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm having a hard time with my career at the moment and I have been listening to this song a lot in the past few days; I find it really comforting and it gives me the strength and resolution to keep pushing on.

Melissa Etheridge – I Need To Wake Up Lyrics 18 years ago
I've heard the saying "partied like it was 1999" before- what exactly does that mean?

Kinnie Starr – Sun Again Lyrics 18 years ago
It certainly is, especially when featured in the first episode of the L Word when Marina & Jenny are having sex.

Some fantastic music featured on The L Word- this is one of my favourites.

Chantal Kreviazuk – Eve Lyrics 18 years ago
I have a strong feeling that this song might refer to Eve van Grafhorst, an Australian child AIDS sufferer whose story was widely known throughout the world (Eve and her family were discriminated against because of her disease).

Ani DiFranco – Looking for the Holes Lyrics 19 years ago
It's about how the most important thing is how you treat those around you.

Its all well and good to have these political ideals- but do you practice what you preach?

Ani DiFranco – School Night Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is not just about the choice between two lovers, but about all of the excruciating choices we have to make in our lives, eg. the 'Sophie's Choice' type of decision about which child to save, and how some choices are just impossible to make;

"What kind of scale ompares the weight of two beauties
the gravity of duties
or the ground speed of joy?
tell me what kind of gauge
can quantify elation?
what kind of equation
could i possibly employ?"

She finishes by saying that having to choose between things/people you love is an unfortunate reality of loving so much.

Ani DiFranco – Slide Lyrics 19 years ago
I think that line refers to being a slave to her sexuality, being unable to resist the "tractor pull". Much like in the song "Out of Habit" where she says that her cunt is like a wound that wont heal.

It's not there for shock value- she's trying to explain how she feels compelled to have sex. This could either refer to doing sex work, or just having sex in general. I think the talk about the bicycle ride in the rain (if you try to stop you slide) is about how difficult it is for her to stop (to put the breaks on, cause she'll slide).

Ani DiFranco – Slide Lyrics 19 years ago
I also think the reference to hunger and following her nose, (like the tractor pull of her pussy), is about her need/craving to have sex.

I'm not sure whether its a financial need (Sex work), or an addictive need for sex (this would explain the lline about losing her best friend- perhaps thats what putting the brakes on and sliding, would mean to her).

Ani DiFranco – Talk to Me Now Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about what we face out in the world as women, and she's explaining why the way she is.

If your tone is curt sometimes, if you wont "lift your skirt" for some guy, you get called "tough" (or unfeminine or whatever). Ani describes how she is the way she is because for a woman to survive, requires defence mechanisms. There are some references to how women's options are limited (she just wants "some say in between").

I echo the sentiments of masked sarah :)

Ani DiFranco – Anticipate Lyrics 19 years ago
I like the way this song addresses the way we maintain our distance and anonymity, so that we dont have to lie, and the price we pay for it.

Ani DiFranco – The Whole Night Lyrics 19 years ago
I love this song.

She's saying, how far can we go under the guise of friendship?

I went through this stage when I was becoming aware of my sexuality.

Ani DiFranco – Make Me Stay Lyrics 19 years ago
She's saying to her/him (it could easily be either, neither one is more likely), that she wants more than for them just to like her/love her/be with her.

She wants them to crave her, to NEED her. She wants to grab this thing they have together by the horns and run with it, not just leave it to meander along, as she says "love is loose it shifts each time you move" and "this could be our last night".
