Nic said: WM is one of my favorite Neil songs, and it exemplifies one of my favorite Neil qualities--the ability to get inside a character's head and the courage to sing from inside of there regardless of whoever might think he's sexist, insensitive,
too nationalistic, whatever. His work is full of that kind of stuff. > He's the Dennis Hopper of Rock and Roll, at times like this anyway.
Very well said, Nic! To quote (or paraphrase) the tremendous Jack Black from Tenacious D: "Don't confuse the singer with the song. Yeah, up on stage, I'm the shit, I'm Zeus, I'm Elvis...but back here, I'm just Jack."
I love Welfare Mothers (the song)
