On December 29, 2017, Arden was appointed as a Member of the Order of Canada for her 'achievements as a singer-songwriter and broadcaster, and for her extensive charitable work.
I literally copied that from the Jann Arden Wikipedia page. I also learned from her Wikipedia page that she was born in Calgary, but at an early age, moved to Springbank, Alberta. Having spent some significant time in Calgary, I can tell you 1) great city. Go there when you can. 2) That's barely leaving Calgary.
This was Arden's only big US hit, reaching #12 on the pop charts, but she's a superstar in Canada. This song might sound like a sweet ballad, but it's actually kind of angry - which is part of the brilliance of Arden's performance.
The song was released in the mid 1990s, but she still sounded amazing playing the song live in 2018.
