You know Lisa and Ricki I was thinking I have noticed that the more intimate and personal a song is, the more revealing of a hidden, secret part of us, the more strongly the listener relates to it.
The temptation as a songwriter is to idealize the message (make it sound cool)so we look good expressing it.
While the real goal is to drop all that and find a way to express purely,honestly and clearly an emotion we have experienced.

You guys have done beautifully what so many of us can't quite accomplish.
