The songs are intimate portraits of getting older but wiser (“I’m Still Standing”), of knowing when to stand up and not take any more shit (“Resist”), of celebrating life’s fleeting beauty (“Swannanoa”), of exalting in your true identity (“Perfect Little Girl”), of paying homage to a lifelong hero and her demons (“Nina,” as in Simone). The Light at the End of the Line feels like a victory lap for an artist who has nothing to lose and nothing left to prove. You hear that in the risks Ian took in both her lyrics and the inspired production choices.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“I love this album,” Ian says. “There is an element of, ‘This is the absolute best I can do over the span of 58 years as a writer. This is what I’ve learned.’ And I realized that this album has an arc, and I’ve never really done anything like that before.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Still Standing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStranger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwannanoa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWherever Good Dreams Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect Little Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDancing with the Dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Side of the Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSummer in New York\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Light at the End of the Line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBetter Times Will Come\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 881132000393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rude Girl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.25.22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Revival Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53234808422560,"sku":"881132000393","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/5899\/5360\/files\/4035338-3175214.jpg?v=1770368886","url":"https:\/\/vinylrevivalrecordstore.com\/products\/janis-ian-the-light-at-the-end-of-the-line-lp","provider":"Vinyl Revival Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
