I think a good song should be like a good short story. It gives a
glimpse into a world, leaving the reader or listener to fill in the
background from their own experience, intuition and needs.

I don't really _want_ information on KaTe's life to fill out the
songs. I want the feeling and the resonance which is there and the
space to draw from it something which enritches my life.
