Hmm, it could simply be about inspiration and the muse. Wonderful imagery and melodies, ya.
I just had an odd idea that the angels are a performer's audience; the applause and shouts are their "singing just for me". I doubt this is what Laurie had in mind, but ya never know. The right words can mean so many different things, that's why we're here giving our interpretations. I love multiple readings.
to continue on this concept:
The 'spare change' is their patronage; record and ticket sales; while their tears are the evocation of memory and emotion that they seek from music.
Perhaps the refrigerator being emptied is the artist's lean years before the patronage began to become a true means of support.
Yes, not likely, but I can make this kind of interpretation up all day long. :)
