If you like the cd that much, there is a "clean
version" of her "This Fire" cd for people like
you who do not want to expose your children to
anymore vulgar language than you have too. I
personally believe that it is her right as an
artist to express herself as she feels is
necessary. But I do understand where you are
coming from. :)
