Fiona Apple, Love Ridden and I Know

Trampoline by Ruby Roberts, my interpretation is it’s about letting go & becoming yourself, written like someone who deeply loves all of you is showing you you’re going to be okay.
Ooh love the mix already! Some ideas- last day of our acquaintance - Sinead O’Conner, lover you should have come over - Jeff Buckley, Bad Religion - frank ocean,
Madonna “live to tell”, ween “birthday boy” & “it’s gonna be alright baby”, “nothing compares 2u” sinead o’Connor, “she’s leaving home” by the Beatles, landslide by Fleetwood Mac, why by Annie Lennox just a few off top of my head
