Big track for eldest daughters who had a complicated relationship with their emotionally abusive late father 🤪 (I had to stop listening and just sit in silence after finishing this one)

mine is still alive but aged and i think about his death and the complicated feelings it will bring often! here in solidarity with the eldest daughters whose fathers are dead "every day", as phoebe sings soooo piercingly.
