I am the grit in the gears, the missing bolt, I am the poker of sticks into spokes. I like to know how things work, but sometimes when I take them apart and rebuild them, I have a few pieces left over. I am a man, so I tend to leave reading the instructions until after it goes wrong. And like all men I have a comprehensive mental map of the world and never need to ask directions. I never get lost, only sometimes I'm late, or end up in the wrong place entirely. It's what we do.

More by Tanita.
I found this on Ms Tikaram's own blog, http://tanitatikaramblog.blogspot.com/ (Yes, blogspot... i found that whilst wondering what she's doing these days... just completed another album, which I look forward to hearing.)
She says "I was delighted by this version of "Twist in My Sobriety" played by young Guitarist Sungha Jung. I’m a bit jealous too, he plays it much better than me and I wrote it !!"
He plays amazingly well, but differently, his rendition is a bit more sharp-edged, where hers was mellow, I like mellow.
