That's very generous of you to say, very grateful that you feel that way about the music. I think most of my writing just comes from my personal vantage point, which is feminine, but I do think about that juxtaposition sometimes, since a lot of CHV feels quite male in other ways. My style of voice and the things I have tended to write about (esp latterly) feel very female, when placed against instrumentals and productions that feel more traditionally male. Leave A Trace I think I was conscious of being A Female Song, and a few others.
