Love her voice and her songs, mostly the ones that are not so famous: Houses, Tawathie, My Father, Anathea. Her voice is like a crystal bell and her songs are poetry as songs should be. Nobody writes or sings songs like that anymore except maybe Jewel but you don’t even hear anything about her either anymore.

Every time i hear this beautiful piece of work still it rips my heart. I don’t know why she titled it albatross but i have always thought she was writing about herself. It is the life of someone who is famous, who longs for someone who is a companion. The universal meaning to me is that it is also about someone for whom shyness is a cage/fence against the world that cannot be opened. She comes to the gate to look and interact but she doe not open it. Her loneliness is profound and she dreams of a “prince” who can rescue her from her prison. People try to pry into her world to find out the private meanings of her work and she lets them believe whatever they wish (which is pretty typical of artists ) so i don’t really credit what she says it means or at least take it with a grain of salt. It is an achingly gorgeous song and poem.
