Bleeding All Over You
There are days when the cage doesn't seem To open very wide at all There are others that would shock The most indiscriminate lovers of all My heart... See the rest of the song lyrics

    Married improves even on Wainwright’s excellent 2005 debut. It’s a more subtle, diverse, self-assured affair.
  2. Dot Music
    90
    The Canadian-American boho remains as feisty and red-blooded as ever, her hewn-from-marble voice--part-cowgirl part-Patti Smith--crooning and bawling tales of feckless lads and late night disappointments.
  3. Hartford Courant

    Wainwright's songs are tight, cohesive and show real emotion.

    I Know You're Married... is a sure-footed, emotionally engaging step up the ladder.
  5. Boston Globe

    On her second album, Wainwright occasionally overshoots in trying to write songs that rise to heights of the sound she can produce, but she's rarely boring.

    She still goes into circles sometimes, but you might too if you could roll a phrase around your tongue the way Wainwright can. [July 2008, p.77]

    This misfires more than its hits home. [June 2008, p.108]

And then I played the cover of The Eurhythmics' "Love is a I haven't thought about Juice Newton since the Reagan administration. And then I played the cover of The Eurhythmics' "Love is a Stranger". And then I started hummin' "Queen of Hearts". In the battle of Pink Floyd covers with Dar Williams (she recorded "Comfortably Numb"), Dar wins, but tackling Syd Barrett-era Floyd is a lot cooler. "See Emily Play" rocks. Unlike this songwriter's debut, there are two tracks that sound radio-friendly. "You Cheated Me" is too friendly, but "Comin' Tonight" has the right amount of raunch. Jenny Lewis of Rilo Kiley could have written this. That's an improvement, because Sarah McLachlan could have written "You Cheated Me". Although nothing on "I know you're married but I've got feelings too" bests the Mary Margaret O'Hara-inspired "Factory", there seems to be less filler on album number two. But it's slicker. And I miss the profanity. Sister of Rufus, daughter of Loudon, is proving to be a very capable songwriter.… Expand

    Not a fan. Liked her brother's first couple of records. Can't get into his new stuff. CAN'T get into her. Maybe later.
