"I wrote 'Fault Lines' because I was trying to find a door or an opening into a disconnect that I was having in my marriage," Shires says. "And I thought, 'Well, we always communicate well with songs. ... Maybe this will get the door open to getting stuff solved.' So, I wrote the song and I recorded a little demo and I sent it to my husband. He did not listen to it." https://www.npr.org/2022/08/03/1114881570/on-take-it-like-a-man-amanda-shires-takes-aim-for-the-heavens This flows with my theory of " behind every attractive woman is a man sick of her shit"
February 9, 20241 yr Church bells are ringing for those that are easy to pleaseAnd the frost on the ground probably envys the frost on the trees
February 10, 20241 yr Need help finding an Americana/folk song that came out last yr, gal with a good voice singing about loving Texas but heart belongs in Colorado and wanting to be buried there under a tree. It got some solid airplay on Americana stations.

February 10, 20241 yr Yeah but with a strongly feminist yet girthily gentle dick, not with her ex husband’s song lyrics like an alpha Edited February 10, 20241 yr by Celery Man
February 10, 20241 yr yes, I'm aware - I know every lyric of that song. my comment about how dudes are stupid is that it was a Jason Isbell lyric posted as a comment on an Amanda Shires' video of a song about or relating to her emotional state in the wake of the announcement of her divorce from Jason Isbell. Not that I think she's probably reading every random comment on her video. But if she was, Isbell lyrics probably aren't the thing. Honestly I feel for her a bit - I'm sure it was a struggle in their marriage anyways but there's probably a lot of fear of how she will be seen/understood/talked about as an artist post divorce from Isbell. Has she damned herself to being primarily the ex-wife of a more talented musician and songwriter?
February 10, 20241 yr Well the original sentiment is accurate. Dudes (people) are fucking stupid sometimes.
February 11, 20241 yr He's a fat nerd that lost weight, got famous, but still has that fat boy insecurity snark. Also, a great guitar player, capable lyricist, but underneath it all, probably amazingly insecure.

That’s like saying Earl Campbell was a great teammate and a capable running back.
February 11, 20241 yr yeah i lol'ed pretty hard at capable lyricist. Edited February 11, 20241 yr by BigOrange1

No shit. Way to miss the entire greatness of Jason Isbell. If anything, his songwriting is saved by his lyrics, because otherwise it's just a little bit above pedestrian. Not bad, catchy at times, but hardly "take your breath away" melody and harmony.

February 11, 20241 yr A bit of a stretch for this thread, but certainly one of my big stops towards alt country and man I would kill to go to a Limbeck show in Austin. Which is what I assume this post references. I

February 13, 20241 yr Back in the old days, he would have gone full Jimmy McNulty and slammed Jameson while assembling shitty Ikea furniture. Now he's a big shot.

February 13, 20241 yr Feel free to try to turn it into something. Your name can go first, like "Lennon-McCartney"
February 13, 20241 yr When we were young, before we were close It was all Jameson and smokes I’d stay out until three or four Then stumble home and build my new armoire But now that I’m back alone and you’re not here I just want to look in the mirror and admire my new veneers Edited February 13, 20241 yr by UTexasFight

February 13, 20241 yr It's not the long, flowing dress that you're in Or the light coming off of your skin The fragile heart you protected for so long Or the mercy in your sense of right and wrong It's not your hands searching slow in the dark Or your nails leaving love's watermark It's not the way you talk me off the roof Your questions like directions to the truth It's knowing I can't stand you and need a divorce Like, you should leave or I'll remove you with light force Maybe we'll get forty more seconds together But then you better be gone Real quick like, or you'll be really gone
