Subject: father loved ones brothers
Sensual Jennifer writes: In "The Morning Fog": I'll tell my mother I'll tell my father I'll tell my loved one I'll tell my brothers (Okay, maybe not as strong as the others) I've always wondered about this. It seems to be almost a blatant reference to Kate herself as the protaganist. Usually, she keeps herself separate from her song personae, but here she really seems to indicate that it is *her*! Is this not something of a rarity among Katia? Other than songs like Them Heavy People and All The Love and possibly a couple of early songs, this seems to be as clear a self-reference (indirect perhaps) as any in Kate lore. Or does sisters just not fit the rhyme scheme? :-) -mjm
