What happened on As Cool As I Am was, you know how in the `90s, the personal is political, the political is personal? That was a really big thing. Choices you made about how you recorded and what instruments you used and how much real versus how much synthetic. Those were choices that were seen as very political at the time.
Dar Williams
There's always people who came 600 miles to hear the song you didn't play.
Dar Williams
I came out of that and said I don't want to go back to feeling depressed. So I asked myself, what can I be optimistic about, in terms of the course of the planet? And I discovered there was no end to the optimism I felt.
