Don’t be so judgmental, Danielle! Maybe she’s a very young widow whose holy-wedlocked (male) spouse died in a tragic farm implement accident! Maybe she’s from one of those Quiverful families and that’s her 7th-youngest sister! You don’t know! Sheesh!

(Yes, the “Rio” Chris.)

“Whisper to a Scream” is a favorite of mine, as well, partly because a band I had friends in covered it. Similarly, “She Sheila” by the Producers, “I Got You” by the Split Enz, and “Dancing with Tears in my Eyes” by Ultravox.

I saw Big Country at Mem Gym at the University of Virginia (my friend Todd wore his kilt) back in 1984.
