i think there are sadder songs, but the reason RDG is so poignant and universal is that it is SO real - it's not exaggerated, it's not manipulative, it's just this girl's life story. everyone has felt that fear of getting stuck in a rut and being trapped instead of getting to live a beautiful life, and i think everyone knows someone who never lived to his/her potential, and therein lies the tragedy.

god, why do i always write this tripe when i'm half asleep?

Totally. As I said before, those type of songs about not fulfilling your dreams (i.e. "Fast Car") really connect with something inside me. I don't think there is any greater tragedy in ones life if one does not fulfill their destiny...

NP: Mark & Emmylou - Love & Happiness

Mark & Emmylou - Rollin' On
