Chicago In Song: Good and Violent

By Don Jacobson

Normally I'd go on about how this tune fits into two Chicago sub-genres: Using the wintry city as a metaphor for the cold emptiness one feels from a love gone wrong, and the skyline representing the hubris of human striving against the ultimate reality of the blackness of eternal night. Yeah, normally I'd do that, but not this time.
