The only thing that struck me was the significance of 1962 and being ready for a fight. The Vietnam War was in effect from 1959 until 1975 (I think). But I don't think that's what she was talking about.
Jann herself was born in March of 1962, in Canada. Canada had a very small role in the Vietnam War, and Jann would have been very young while it was waging.
I love this one, I have it where Jackson Browne sings with her. For me it means dispair, that all humanity feels when frustrated and depressed. It's a very real feeling we all can relate to on a deeper lever, one that connects us all. But there are other feelings humanity shares, one being loved, loving...it's just the other side of the coin. IMHO :)
1st post, glad I found you all.

I think the incident in 1962 may refer to the riots in Oxford Mississippi when President Kennedy was speaking in support of a black student who was to begin college the following day. 300 people were injured & 2 killed - Kennedy, I believe, brought in the Federal Marshals to get the crowds under control.

I love this song. One of my favourite Jann songs.
