Tom Skjeklesæther: 2016-06-21 23:46 | »Öppningslåten »Hands of Time« är ett slags Price egen »Coal Miners Daughter« med nyckelscener men ska ändå inte läsas som ren biografi. Naturligtvis. Låten är nominerad i kategorin årets låt till höstens AMA-festival och Margo själv är nominerad som en av årets Emerging artist« Magnus Östnës anmelder og liker Margo Prices debutalbum, »Midwest Farmer´s Daughter«. Der »Hands of time« er en knock-out åpningssang. Men, etter alt å dømme er sangen temmelig nær selvbiografisk. Det hevdes blant annet i The New Yorkers omtale av plata. Her magasinets Sarah Larsons tekst om »Hands of time« ; I’ve been listening to it almost nonstop since I got it a couple of weeks ago. It begins with the autobiographical “Hands of Time,” whose sound is patient, poetic, confessional, candid. I imagine that it’s hard to perform live. “When I rolled out of town, on the unpaved road, I was fifty-seven dollars from being broke,” she begins. Price grew up in Aledo, a small town in Illinois. She goes on, “Times they were tough growing up at home. My daddy lost the farm when I was two years old. Took a job at the prison, working second shift. And that’s the last time I let them take what should be his.” She wants to make a little cash; she works bad jobs, busting her ass; she wants to buy back the farm. | |
