Yuki, that's a wonderful interpretation! I've always loved the part about the whale confronting her about wearing the corset. It's so haunting.

I think this song is a lyrical masterwork. It's one of her best efforts, I think. I admit that when I first heard it, I felt that it sounded a little TOO Irish folk for my taste, like it was too blatant or something, but that quickly passed. It became a fast favorite and I am truly astonished by the depth of storytelling and insight she's able to glean in a short (for Joanna, anyway!) song.
