"Under the Ivy"...

[asteg@k12.oit.umass.edu (Albert Steg (Winsor))]

I can't say I've ever thought real carefully about "interpreting" U"Under
the Ivy," but somehow I got an impression early on that it was about the
space where she makes her music.  I guess the intimacy of the piano
arrangement and the lyrics gave me a sense that she was inviting the
listener into the private world of her music.  In interviews you get the
impression that she ;likes to retreat from the professional/social world of
"parties" to get back to the studio. 

Not that this is in conflict with any of the other readings here, but maybe
just another layer of thought.
