The entire album is inspired by the tragic beauty of "The Diary Of Anne Frank". Songwriter/Frontman Jeff Mangum is said to have had painfully vivid dreams after reading "Diary" and became compelled to write the haunting,sometimes beautiful songs for this album. Unfortunately, after its critically acclaimed release and intensive touring in suppport of it, Mr. Mangum had somewhat of a meltdown?, disillusionment?, and has since become a near recluse. |

Somehow a woman's voice gives this song some extra meaning. With Arlene's permisson, I will send it to anyone who PMs me with their e-mail address requesting it. SOL |
