  1. Musical Interlude: Listening to some Nanci Griffith today, I was struck by this song of regretful goodbyes, when breaking up is the best for both parties. One of the more mature breakup songs I've heard.

  5. Musical Interlude: "Storms" was the first Nanci Griffith album I ever bought, and this opens the album. A quiet song of heartbreak, but with a delicacy rarely found. And that line about how "love has a voice of its own" can mean so much.

    "I Don't Want to Talk About Love," performed by Nanci Griffith.

  7. Musical Interlude: I'm a longtime fan of the late Nanci Griffith, and her passing hit me hard. This song, with Jimmy Buffet on backing vocals, makes me think of my own affection for Baltimore.
