Subject: RE: Women's music
Ieila, I'm sure you've heard of 'Mothers Daughters Wives', Judy Small's song about women seeing their men go to war again and again. It should be in one of the older threads, and also in the DT. 'Whaur Dae Ye Lie' by Karine Polwart is one that may not have made it to the Forum yet, about women in former Yugoslavia lamenting their murdered menfolk. Simple but haunting. I haven't got the words down yet, or I'd end them.
