Petite chanson et guitare solo pour un titre non anodin "ce qui est privé devient public". C'est bien un des grands problèmes d'aujourd'hui, de nos journées quand les hystéries transgressent ces limites en imposant leurs lois, ou quand la paranoïa avec la fortune du terme "transparence" gagne en puissance jour après jour... "Tout dire".

There is another song Suzanne made back in 1987 called "Night Vision" which isvery similar to this song. It also addresses the issue of someone living in a worldof social isolation, trying to make sense of the outside world. I can relate to this.

There is another rare song by Suzanne, taken from her "Days of Open Hand" albumentitled "Big Space" This song really showcases Suzanne's talent as a songwriter,Its a deeply intense song which addresses the issue of how people deal with things from within.

Actually, here in the UK "Private goes Public" did not appear on the original vinylrecord. It did, however, appear as a bonus track on the cd. I can relate to thissong, because it talks about the "Private Person" who has difficulty engaging withothers, and the problems such a person encounters, when having to go out intothe public arena. At least, that's the way I interpret the song.

Talk a bout an A-side masquerading as a B-side. She's a genius, and 99.9F is her most unhinged and possibly most enjoyable album---and it was right on target for the musical moment in which it was released. Thanks for uploading this little rarity!
