Songs for Saturday: Just go read this

[mdlbear]

Just go read this: "The Wasted Daughter of the Moon: The Trans Genius of Dave Carter". No, seriously. I'll wait.

Please note that some aspects of the article, especially the author's choice of pronouns, are controversial.

If you haven't listened to all the songs yet, go back and do that. Here's "Mother I Climbed" on YouTube, since the article didn't link to it. Also, go track down all the lyrics (it's not hard).

I don't think I have anything else to say here. Enjoy.

Thank you for opening up another corner of the world to me!

You're welcome! It was N who pointed me at Carter -- he's an amazing songwriter. (Of course, anyone who can combine nature worship, Buddhism, and country music...)

If you haven't yet encountered Stan Rogers, he's another songwriter you need to look up.
