I bought the record when I was 18, and I had just moved out of my parents' house.
I listened to that song every time there was a thunderstorm and I just wanted to wallow in feeling melancholy and nostalgic.
It still makes me feel that way every time I hear it. There is despair, darkness, though still light, and subtle...
I was looking for the album "Moon Pix" (I think) but couldn't get it!
My first Cat Power is "Juke box"; it's kept me company these three years, in the car, on the road, rainy days...
Cat Power is a must for the road.
