Recorded at Manta Sound, Toronto, Canada in spring 1985. All songs written by Jane Siberry. This 1985 album was Jane Siberry's second worldwide release and bestselling album overall.The arc of creative brilliance started on the previous year's NO BORDERS HERE continues on innovative, keyboard-laden flights of fancy like the joyful, angular "Map of the World (Part II)" and "One More Color," a paean to living in the glorious, unbroken moment without questioning or evaluating. At this point, Siberry rivaled Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush in the "epic, complex" song category, and yet her music still sounds fresh, unique, and utterly convincing--her unrelenting spiritual optimism made all the more poignant alongside ballads like "The Taxi Ride," a heartbreaking tribute to the end of a love affair.
