"Quiet House," the most interior of the two songs, does nothing less than survey the unsettling stillness within—within a house where children have left the nest to go into the world on their own, and within a parent's unsettled soul as she comes to grip with deafening silence and poignant memories, realizing "time just for me" is what she always dreamed of. But "this is nothing like I thought it'd be." Ms. Britt is fully inside the song, and barely, it seems, in control of her emotions as the piano laments softly and a cello rises hauntingly behind her until she bursts out with a piercing cry--"all aloooooo-ne…in a quiet house"—made all the more penetrating by a raspy edge in her voice, as if she were on the verge of tears. (en) I literally looked around and said "me?" It was shocking," Britt said. "I was 53 at the time, and that [a record deal] was the last thing I expected to come out of either of their mouths. It was exciting and surprising; a sense of new hope just came over me. (en) |
