I'd have to say that Over-the-Rhine is about being touched inside your
heart/soul in a way that you have never been touched before. The
combination of great music and awesome lyrics come together to reach down
inside you, and helps you get in touch with a part of yourself that you
probably did not even know existed, but are grateful that it is there.
