I remember reading that this is about Glenn Gould, the composer, and I thought the '88 was a reference to the number of keys on a piano. After that. It's a happy sad song. It's like, I was a smarter than average child, I had a genius IQ and I was totally below average in my other skills and a bit of a freak oddball and mess. But I grew out of both a bit..here is this beautiful multi talented young woman, Sarah Slean, and she gets him. But to look at her, at first glance it doesn't seem like she'd know what it's like to be a lonely freak out of place in the world. But I guess if she was like everyone else, she'd never have been compelled to make songs and art. So they're kindred spirits and maybe even writing to a part of her own self in the song. |

@[zootieszoo:21435] I wish I knew you then. I was an odd kid, though I have 13 years on you. I am writing a book about the generation born with Pluto in Scorpio and this comment by you is a great example for it. If you are still getting email at whatever address this is registered with, comment back if you're interested in being interviewed for the book. I am a professional astrologer since 91. I am also a music and book fiend. |

I think she's burned out from not being able to live her life as a person but also having to be chained to the life of an artist and perform and write about her experiences and the light box is more about the whole internet more than t.v. because people are judgemental and hide behind anonymity there but she's a public person who is probably regretting the private details about herself that she let be shared...? I'm a writer and musician and I always feel a tremendous amount of solidarity and comfort in this song. ❤ |
