635. Liz Phair - exile in guyville

Here's my problem with the record: as I've mentioned before I am more drawn to the music in a song than the lyrics... and while there are some great songs on this record, there are plenty of introspective, guitar only, demoish sounding songs that lack, musically at least, variation, rhythm and depth. But when she's on (as heard below), she's on. In any event this is considered to many a classic and what launched the female rock movement in the 90's - which to a degree isn't fair because that implies that every other girl who was rocking didn't contribute to the scene.
