Insensitive (song)
"Insensitive" is the second single released from Canadian singer-songwriter Jann Arden's second studio album, ''Living Under June'' (1994). Written by Anne Loree and produced by Ed Cherney, the song became Arden's most successful single, reaching number one in Canada and Australia and number 12 in the United States. Background Anne Loree would recall writing "Insensitive" in response to an unhappy tryst with a chef at a Calgary restaurant where Loree was waiting tables. "I sat down at my electric piano in the basement of a rented house I shared with four roommates, broke and brokenhearted, full of pain and angst, and wrote 'Insensitive'. It took me probably less than half an hour and I walked away feeling much better for it and much hipper to Prince Charmings who aren't really into you." Jann Arden, then based in Calgary, optioned "Insensitive" for ''Living Under June'' after hearing Loree perform the song at a local club. "Insensitive" remains by far Arden's most successful si ...

Tower Of Song
''Tower of Song: The Songs of Leonard Cohen'' is a tribute album to Leonard Cohen, released in 1995 on A&M Records. It takes its name from a song by Cohen which originally appeared on Cohen's album '' I'm Your Man.'' However the song "Tower of Song" does not actually appear on this tribute album. Unlike the 1991 Cohen tribute album ''I'm Your Fan'', that was recorded by a lineup of alternative rock groups like The House of Love and the Pixies, ''Tower of Song'' featured relatively well-known, mainstream artists like Elton John, Sting with the Chieftains, Billy Joel, Peter Gabriel and Bono of U2. Phil Collins turned down the chance to contribute because he was unavailable. The album was conceived by Cohen's manager, Kelley Lynch, who, a decade later, was found liable for fraud, having drained nearly all of Cohen's life savings. The album received a negative review from critic Roch Parisien at AllMusic, who called the album "a total train wreck". However, this view was not ...
