Given the song title and the artist name, I was expecting a ragged stomp topped off with hollered vocals and maybe some barrelhouse piano, but what I got was a beautifully contemplative track that sounds more like an open window on a bright blue fall day. If you've experienced the inexplicable end of a soul connection — and who hasn't? — this song will resonate deeply.
About the Album
Dear queer people,
Do you remember that friendships from your adolescence, when you had a friendship that was closer than any relationship you've ever had? Remember when that relationship ended, suddenly and strangely, and it took you years to figure out that you were actually in love? This song is for you.
Love,
Kirsten Kirk (and the Dirty Work)
