You really gave me hell, big talker Polluted the well You really spoke your mind, big talker At least your mind at the time Now I'm wearing your words, big talker Like necklaces and rings Just glad it wasn't me, big talker That said all those things Never before could I picture Even one foot out the door Careless words, careless words Say no more But now that that door has been opened It can never be closed Careless words, careless words I can never unknow I can never unknow Tried to keep my heart pure, big talker But it came out stained Tried to stay in love, big talker But instead I'm in pain I learned as a child, big talker Just shut the whole thing down That polluted well, big talker That whole polluted town And never before could I picture Even one foot out the door Careless words, careless words Say no more But now that that door has been opened It can never be closed Careless words, careless words I can never unknow I can never unknow No sleep for me, big talker Just one long migraine One that sparks and flares, big talker When I say your name Where went your love? big talker Cuz that's where I go I'm no longer here, big talker I'm searching high and low And never before could I picture Even one foot out the door Careless words, careless words Say no more But now that that door has been opened It can never be closed Careless words, careless words I can never unknow You can never unknow
+Kateřina Čechová I've got sixteen of her releases and I wish I could suggest one for you to start with but I can't. Just buy any one and I think you'll just HAVE to get the rest! Happy listening!
gord bard I totally agree, although I think personally that Revelling Reckoning is a great start. That is how I discovered her when it was released..one of the best decisions I ever made. And what a night listening to it for the first time with my (then) girlfriend. Incredible. Just like falling in Love.
oooh, if you never heard of ani before this, you got a lot of catching up to do if you like to listen! :) enjoy the journey thru soooo much (different) expression and amazingness
ha interesting you choose that tune to mention here... i love it. i always find it interesting that it was only a 'bonus' cd track to the debut album ani difranco (like not on the original cassette release). tis one of my very faves of her early early songs... i sing it a lot to mySelf
This song is so bad. It's lazy Ani writing. Scribble-strum a few alt chords (read chords off from the main scale by a note), with a hammer on. Ani has gotten good again, but please skip all performances from this era.
