HOMETOWN BLUES: Oh, you ever feel as if you're in a ditch deeper
than the blues? And home is oh, you just don't know? But you have a
sense of what home should be and just need a tugboat, or maybe a few
to pull you there? Well while I was visiting that state (once, really), I
wrote Hometown Blues and one day my Music Man will make the
music track that makes this puppy deliver.

CAN'T TAKE MYSELF MUCH LONGER: You ever just feel like
you can't take yourself one more nano-second? It's is a sunny day and
then you're blue, the glass is half full and then you're blue. Well, I felt
that way once (OK more than once) and wrote this song.

LET ME LOVE YOU: This is the second song I ever wrote. Here is
my very green perfomance of it at Art House in 2005. Did the song get
the guy? No it didn't, but I did get a sweet song.

RECASTING MY AMERICAN DREAM: I had come back from a
writing trip in Russia. It was the summer of 2008 and I was feeling like
this is not my America and this is not me. I wanted to be strong again
and I wrote this song right after I wrote Can't Take Myself Much
Longer to kick start me.

WIDOWNESS: This is a series of writings about what it felt like being
a widow and the first song I ever wrote, Big Water Blue.

HE BROKE MY HEART I WISH HE'D DIE: Oh my goodness, my
heart must have been a little whooped to come up with such a title and I
guess it was. Ah love ... if it ain't messy, it ain't messy. I was SO
nervous before I sang this one and so happy the audience joined in too.

PUTTING ON PAJAMAS: Right before I went to bed, a bunch of big
thoughts and words began filling up the little black book I always carry
around and so I sang what I wrote. What are we doing here? I have
no idea, but have fun while you're here.

KABUKI KATE: The day before I was to perform this song I lost my
voice. So I decided the show must go on and I chose to let a recording
of the song play while I danced to it. I call it Kabuki Kate
