about

Springsteen's "Nebraska" is not a Christmas album.

lyrics

All the things I swear I would've asked ya
But instead I kept it all inside
Down the basement listening to Nebraska
As the winter ‘round us slowly died

It made you feel alright, it made you feel better
It made you feel someday instead of never
It made you feel nothing ever goes too far
As you lie there looking at the stars
The cold wind’s blowing, my heart’s on fire

Pay attention to the signs of warning
That’s what they told me from the start
Everything looks clearer in the morning
As the cold hard light fills up the dark

It made you feel alright, it made you feel better
It made you feel someday instead of never
It made you feel nothing ever goes too far
As you lie there looking at the stars
The cold wind’s blowing, my heart’s on fire

Quietly the pieces come together
Though I know I’m still missing a few
All these subtle changes in the weather
Make me wonder if you ever knew

It made you feel alright, it made you feel better
It made you feel someday instead of never
It made you feel nothing ever goes too far
And now I don’t know where you are
The cold wind’s blowing, my heart’s on fire

about

Norma MacDonald Halifax, Nova Scotia

The opening chords of In Waves set the record spinning in January, but the mood is wholly autumnal: lush, then resolute. A harvest and a hope.

On her sixth album, Norma MacDonald explores new songwriting tactics, reimagines old demos, and conducts sound experimentations that expand her folk and country influences into 60s pop, Motown harmonies, and jangly early millennium indie-rock.
