Though many of the songs are familiar, even classics; they evade the usual categories of American music: the torch song, the ‘I want’ number, the patter-comedy turn, the wash-that-man-out-of-my-hair song. An intuitively discovered body of work, these are songs of conversation and reflection, songs that ask themselves questions privately, more than they declare their desires loudly and publicly. There are moons and Junes in these songs, but reality too. Here are songs of self-reliance and self-reflection, often sad, even when the feelings resolve in equipoise. With Melissa, a song isn’t a torch song. It’s more of a searchlight. A love story made of sighs and secrets rather than neat happy endings; and a series of evasions and implications. Love as an obstacle course run by adults rather than meadows measured by children. Spring will be a little late this year.
