   That not precocious, that’s downright brilliant. Patti Smith eat your heart out.

   I like her sound; its new and different. Nice to see young artists having some refreshing ideas about what makes good music.

   From Broadway to the Who.

   A minimalist rock opera, alternating tender contemplative moments with thrashing power chords, all demonstrating total mastery of the idiom.

   Five stars.

   Wow.

   What Gardner said, plus, the real question is never answered - thus a sense of mystery for the listener.

   Jerry, I beg to differ. In the final stanza, she changes “Are we” to “We are”. That’s probably the most brilliant part of this: the issue is resolved, and yet, the passion maintained to the final note.

   All the great songwriters intentionally leave the meaning a bit vague and obscure. This could be the next classic YouTube music video!

   Scotty says: That is really cool.

   Mark says: It was funny.

   Steve says: I seem shades of an early Grace Slick, or was it Stevie Nicks.
