It *is* a wonderful song.
Some of my fondest memories (BMD - Before Major Depression) are wrapped up in her music.
I gave 'Lone Star State of Mind' and 'The MCA Years' to my dearest friend, who lives in the UK. His kiddos gave me the Antie Mel monikor, and when we would go out on a 'Mel adventure' the kids would demand the radio song over and over.
My daughter and I would blare 'From a Distance' and 'Ford Econoline' in the car on the way to soccer practice. And the first time I took her to the UK with me she was delighted to fine a Woolworths near my friend's house.
Even today when I listen, I get a feeling of peace.
