2011 AD

It's Ani DiFranco's birthday.  She's been a fairly popular performer for over 20 years, spreading her feminist alternative folk rock music.  And she did it her way, starting her own record company.  Yet I think her best known song is a cover--her (I'm assuming) ironic reading of Bacharach and David's "Wishin' And Hopin'"  It got a lot of attention when it was placed at the beginning of Julia Robert's My Best Friend's Wedding.

Thanks, LAGuy. I never realized how explicit that song was.

Just do it.

Code word: Afuntion

A funtion of love, baby.

It makes a good book end with "Wives And Lovers."
