From Allison Moorer's new album Crows (due February 9 via Rykodisc), "Sorrow (Don't Come Around)" is a magnificent ballad written by Moorer just after she found out that she was pregnant -- and seven months after an earlier miscarriage. Performed with just a piano backing during a NY Times interview with critic Ben Sisario, the song, we think, has an even greater immediacy and emotional power with just the intimate production. This was also, she says, the final song written for the album. Listen to the complete podcast interview here. More DC on Crows here.
