THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE ART:
This is a very old American Folk song. I love it.
Noam Chomsky once said that he listened to Lead Belly as a young man. It was a recommendation that I took very seriously. That’s where I first heard this song.
This song is really upsetting and beautiful.
Nirvana and Kurt Cobain helped explain how upsetting it is.
