Adams | 2. _This Woman's Work_ makes four songs now (by my count) dealing | with birth/womb themes. This seems unusual, compared to other | artists. In fact, I can't really think of anyone else who has | dared to sing about the topic, let alone four songs. There's _Eat_for_Two_ on 10,000 Maniacs new album, which has also been featured (?) on MTV. The song is about an unwanted pregnancy, which adds to the "daring". -randy -- Randy C.
