"I started covering this song on tour almost immediately after hearing it for the first time. I was so struck by her command and presence even though she weaves in and out of being present (...) I wouldn’t dare try to mimic or recapture her performance, but I tried to sing in the same wandering, mantra-like way — but taking it somewhere a little more sinister. I’ve lost count of how many times I use the word “body” in my songs" - Mike Hadreas
