More discursive? More flighty? More playground? More rap? My favorite Patti is "Piss Factory."

Flighty, maybe - I was going to put that my favourite Patti is 'Piss Factory' too but then I remembered 'Because The Night' so I don't know. And um the epic one on Horses which goes "horses! horses! horses!" - you may be able to tell that I haven't listened to her for a while, this will have to change.

I also really like her cover of 'When Doves Cry'!

But "Because The Night" is anthemic. (It's good mind you, but definitely anthemic.)

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

It's romantic-anthemic rather than political-anthemic though! ie much less liable to be heavy-handed.

BtN is also ROCK MUSIC by BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN!

It's also BOSH MUSIC by...I forget which Eurobosh people did it. But that was brilliant too!
