I Will Not Be Afraid of Women

I can't embed it, but I think this, one of my favourite songs, by one of my favourite artists, sort of describes what I can't put into words, and how I'm feeling right now, in the midst of various wanks. As Cool As I Am, by Dar Williams: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4j5ms5f6hI

I want to put together a Dar zip, because she is amazing. If interested, let me know.

ETA: Also, this:


Because my computer knows my moods, and played this as the first song when I started up my player...

And another Dar song (my favourite) just because:


Which makes me want to write a slow, lazy bandom fic.

Wow, I can't believe I've never heard of her - she is really quite cool.

I first saw Dar many years ago at a folk festival. She is and has always been one of my favorites, as well as an absolutely gracious and charming person the few times I've had the pleasure to meet her. One of my best memories is hearing her play 'Iowa' outside on the night of a full moon surrounded by my favorite people.

I'm not that petty, as cool as I am I thought you'd know this already...

Seriously, I ♥ Dar Williams SO much, especially the two songs you linked to. I first heard As Cool As I Am when I was about 16, and have loved it since then. \o/ (Also, Iowa breaks my heart...)

I hadn't heard of Dar Williams, but I'm glad that I now have! I'd be very interested in a Dar zip if you make one, I really loved new music and this is some wonderful stuff!
