When Benmont says he is in "Chile" does she say "Is up high, eh?" I can't figure out what she's saying there.

I don't remember that. Is Hernan Rojas Chilean? If so, maybe that's why she went to Chile -- she was pseudo-dating Hernan at about that time.

(Sorry to stay off topic and I should have started a new thread but this line always had me confused. Like is it something that sounded good or actually happened)?

I think maybe she was not being literal in this phase. Maybe the foreign country was not an actual country but an emotional state that was foreign to her. A good example of that would be a love affair that lasted six weeks and then ended. The didn't speak the language goes along with that in that it ended because of lack of communication or an unwillingbess to compromise.

Strand, that is very insightful, & offers another perspective worth considering. You're a good guy, Strand.

I am flattered and, quite frankly, blushing

Wow. You just blew me away again. I agree with David that this is a whole different way of looking at that line. It goes along with another one of her lines: *it's not like any words need to be said*. You could be right.

It makes a lot of sense. I've never thought to this perspective, thanks Jason.
