“If you want a lover, I'll do anything you ask me to.”

Hosts Richard Gottehrer and Allison Zatarain dig deep into the seductive Leonard Cohen song, “I’m Your Man” for Instant Love by Holly Miranda. You’ll hear the original and the new recording, now sung woman to woman. Holly discusses her inspiration for the recording and the new meaning of “manning up,” as well as how a siren on 2nd Avenue in NYC made a fiery contribution to her rendition. Resident musicologist Richard Barone and Richard G. realize that the lyrics “I’m Your Man” aren’t really gender-specific. Allison and Rebecca Morehiser get into the influence of the film noir in the cover art. Engineer Alonzo shares how he loved the original “whispered vocal” recorded in Holly’s apartment and how he fleshed out the track at The Orchard studio.
