What makes this collection land so hard is her instinct for pairing charged, socially weighted lyrics with arrangements that never let the message overwhelm the performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhereas Veronica Swift's 2019 Mack Avenue Records debut, Confessions, contained songs that played out like pages from her personal diary, on the captivating follow-up, This Bitter Earth, she flips by crafting an ingenious song cycle that tackles sexism (\"How Lovely to Be a Woman\"), domestic abuse (\"He Hit Me\"), environmental issues, racism, xenophobia (\"You Have To Be Carefully Taught\"), and the dangers of fake news (\"The Sports Page\"). The singer-songwriter gathered material that covers multiple genres, including jazz, American musicals, and contemporary indie-rock fortifying her position as a leading force in genre-bending song presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. This Bitter Earth (4:26)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. How Lovely To Be A Woman (4:09)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. You've Got To Be Carefully Taught (5:44)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Getting To Know You (6:15)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. The Man I Love (4:48)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6. You're The Dangerous Type (4:23)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7. Trust In Me (5:18)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8. He Hit Me (And It Felt Like A Kiss) (2:08)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9. As Long as He Needs Me (4:55)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10. Everybody Has The Right To Be Wrong (2:50)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11. Prisoner of Love (4:15)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12. The Sports Page (6:19)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13. Sing (5:44)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 673203117723\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mack Avenue Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.19.21\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadtime","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48745007055003,"sku":"632793","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/7172\/files\/packshot-veronica-swift-this-bitter-earth-cd-relix.jpg?v=1781320849","url":"https:\/\/relix.shop\/products\/veronica-swift-this-bitter-earth-cd","provider":"relix.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
