ENFP is my impression.

Not done with the interview though, and reading her wikipedia article at the same time. lol

"Our intelligence is so much deeper than our thoughts... I think inside of myself I already knew where I was going with it, but it wasn't in my mind."

That strikes me as very, very ENP ish, and her personalization/humanization of her thoughts is definitely NF or Fi, so yeah -- ENFP is my vote.

Also her wikipedia article cries NFness, in my opinion.

ENFP!

Edit: Some of her other interviews on youtube are reinforcing my opinion.

This is monumental to me.

I've never discussed this with anybody!!!

yes.

Whenever I feel alone in the universe, I listen to Ani, she has been a beacon of hope for me on plenty a dismal nights.

I've seen her preform twice.

She is a force to be reckoned with.

She is wise^10

I've always found her somewhat overwrought. But very charismatic, so it's hard not to like her at least a little bit.

This is interesting to me because for some reason I've been compelled to find examples of "famous" ENFPs and read up on them.

The more I read about her the more I think, putting it bluntly, she's clearly ENFP.

Her lyrics speak to me, like *really* speak to me, so I am incredibly biased.

Dana, you don't like her?

How much of her have you been exposed to?

Not much. If you would like to recommend something, I could reevaluate her, and confirm my dislike and also provide a specific reason or change my mind entirely.

I was a long time coming
I'll be a long time gone
you've got your whole life to do something
and that's not very long
so why don't you give me a call
when you're willing to fight
for what you think is real
for what you think is right


:yes:

This makes me think of the eternity that existed before my birth, and the eternity that will exist after my death.

Life is very short.

So goddammit, make it worth it!!!

:yes:

Guys, I really think she's an introvert. Her songs are incredibly introspective, and she seems like a very private person (doesn't share much, except thru music and doesn't like interacting with fans). I'm going to need to see evidence of extroversion.

Not much. If you would like to recommend something, I could reevaluate her, and confirm my dislike and also provide a specific reason or change my mind entirely.

Listen to "Untouchable Face." Even non-Ani people like that song.

Those second lyrics that CC posted and then removed did seem kind of I to me. The first song was textbook E, though. So I'm torn. I haven't listened to her that much so I defer to you guys.

Maybe she's an ambivert! Like Edahn.

Willing To Fight Lyrics


The windows of my soul
are made of one way glass
don't bother looking into my eyes
if there's something your want to know,
just ask
I got a dead bolt stroll
where I'm going is clear
I won't wait for you to wonder
I'll just tell you why I'm here

'cause I know the biggest crime
is just to throw up your hands
say
this has nothing to do with me
I just want to live as comfortably as I can
you got to look outside your eyes
you got to think outside your brain
you got to walk outside you life
to where the neighborhood changes

tell me who is your boogieman
that's who I will be
you don't have to like me for who I am
but we'll see what you're made of
by what you make of me
I think that it's absurd
that you think I
am the derelict daughter
I fight fire with words
words are hotter than flames
words are wetter than water

I got friends all over this country
I got friends in other countries too
I got friends I haven't met yet
I got friends I never knew
I got lovers whose eyes
I've only seen at a glance
I got strangers for great grandchildren
I got strangers for ancestors

I was a long time coming
I'll be a long time gone
you've got your whole life to do something
and that's not very long
so why don't you give me a call
when you're willing to fight
for what you think is real
for what you think is right

Ani Difranco - Light Of Some Kind Lyrics



i wish i didn't have this nervous laugh
i wish i didn't say half the stuff i say
i wish i could just learn to cover my tracks
i guess i'm not concerned about getting away (with it)

'cause every time i try to hold my tongue
it slips like a fish from a line
they say if you want to play
you should learn how to play dumb
i guess i can't bring myself to waste your time

'cause we both know what i've been doing
i've been intentionally bad at lying
you're the only boy i ever let see through me
and i hope you beleive me when i say i'm trying
and i hope i never improve my game
yeah i'd rather have these things weighing on my mind
and at the end of this tunnel of guilt and shame
there must be a light of some kind
there must be a light of some kind

i must have blown a fuse or something
cause it was so dark in my mind
she came up to me with the sweetest face
and she was holding a light of some kind
and i still think of you as my boyfriend
i don't think this is the end of the world
but i think maybe you should follow my example
and go meet yourself a really nice girl

'cause we both know. . .

in the end the world comes down to just a few people
but for you it comes down to one
but no one ever asked me if i thought i could be
everything to someone
there's a crowd of people harboured in every person
there are so many roles that we play
and you've decided to love me for eternity
i'm still deciding who i want to be today

'cause we both know. . .

This is the kind of poetic shizzle that makes me doubt my Feeling. I just can't get into it.
