5K EVERY DAY – Day #313

(Musical intro of “Fast As You Can”)

The year: 1999. The date: today. The always-intriguing Fiona Apple released her second album — I’d love to say the full title, but then this video wouldn’t be a short.

Why? Because the title is 90 words long.

(“Fast As You Can” clip of “Fast as you can, baby. Run, free yourself of me. Fast as you can.”)

That mouthful of a title came from a poem she wrote after reading her 1997 Spin interview — where the writer completely misunderstood her.
Because of its size, the album is usually listed simply as When The Pawn….

She owned her voice, no matter how misunderstood. Today, I owned mine – I ran.

QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“Go with yourself.” – by Fiona Apple

From a 90-word album title to a three-word quote — I love that “run your own race” mentality.
