I'm totally fine not understanding lyrics of singers who mumble their way through a song, but Chrissy is normally very clear, but I couldn't ever figure out this one.

Then I found the lyrics online and was like. Oh, that's why!

She sounds like nobody else & nobody else sounds like here.
Fantastic songwriter, too.
Learning to Crawl was one of our favorite albums of the 80s.
I played this one in the early 80s.

...her whole thing is understatement.
She's not flashy. She's not a high note wailer. She's not a guitar hero.
She's just good.
I can see how you left her out last year. Chrissie has never been right up in our faces.

I did post these two songs throughout the year just not on Women's History Month. Today I posted a Cindy Lauper tune which really isn't really one of my favorites but a couple of women insisted it was a great song

My wife & I saw her live show twice.
The first time (She's So Unusual) the band was solid.
The second time (True Colors) the band was a gang of killers! Holy cow, were they good!
We all know, of course, that she can sing like nobody's business.
