This song reminds me a lot of me. I've never been raped, but I think she just uses that as an example of a really terrible thing that can happen to someone. She compares the plight of being raped with the excitement of getting a letter from a favorite band. Amanda actually replied to a letter I wrote her, and that's how I felt. It didn't matter what was going on at the time - knowing that Amanda Palmer read and responded to my letter was all that mattered at the time.
I love how she dedicated this song to Sarah Palin, the moronic bitch who changed Alaska's law which now makes rape victims PAY for their own rape kits.
