I guess I'm just the kind of person who doesn't like to be told, "that line would be much more effective if you changed the wording, or if you eliminated the next line," etc.

Man, you would
hate working with me then. And you wouldn't be the first.

Of course, we can point to the disappointment she has expressed over a great deal of what she wrote during her "Klonopin Years," but I personally think that unfairly dismisses a group of songs that, while flawed, are as important to her oeuvre as masterpieces such as "Silver Springs" and "Sara."
Because even though she may not have been in the best place personally and creatively, those songs stand as a reflection of the struggles she was going thru. And I think a lot of fans relate to those internal and external struggles.

Fair enough. My disappointment is primarily because I know she could have done better. Under different circumstances. But such is life.
