@[ac_arsenal:49185] ✅ It must have felt strange yet gratifying on some level for lang to be embraced in 1988 by Chatelaine magazine, then a bastion of mainstream straight female Canadian identity that she'd been trying to get away from. The background you give makes the song even more perfect, as no matter the sexuality of lang's married love interest, it must have been bemusing and confusing to find herself so attracted to a mainstream type of person with a lifestyle so unlike hers. How perfectly "I can't explain why I become Miss Chatelaine" sums up how we're not as in control of ourselves and our identity when caught up in infatuation. |

| Band of Horses – The Funeral Lyrics | 2 years ago |

This song speaks to me about family estrangements that end with a death and funeral. Where you show up because you were wronged in the past and have been away for a long time..Maybe still hurt and angry on some level, probably fantasizing about this day, yet determined to face down all the family or friend misunderstanding and maybe abuse you once dealt with. Maybe to stand up for yourself or to face the dead for one last time, to find closure and peace. Funerals are for the living. |
