The track representing the album's title is a very powerful one. Contradiction might be the easiest word to describe it. The voice, low, terribly earthy, and than the violin. The violin is, by essence, an instrument of sublimation : playing it is physically uncomfortable, it's sound dwells into the most tortured human feelings or the most divine and sublimated ones, but it is not exactly linked to pleasure. It is like the naked figure picture on the album's cover.
