35 years ago, I had just entered my senior year of high school. While preparing to go out and play sports, I was over at a friend's house. The 10,000 Maniacs' jarring "What's The Matter Here?" made us pause. It was about suspecting that the neighbors were abusing their young son. So do you just mind your own business, or do you intervene, with unknown consequences?
A year later, I would enter college. While I was homesick, most kids were glad to be away from home. And "What's The Matter Here?" made that easier to comprehend.
