I Speak Because I Can
''I Speak Because I Can'' is the second album by British singer-songwriter Laura Marling, released on 22 March 2010.
Produced by Ethan Johns, the album deals with "responsibility, particularly the responsibility of womanhood."〔(NME - I Speak Because I Can, First Listen )〕 The album was preceded by the singles "Goodbye England (Covered in Snow)", released on iTunes in December 2009 and "Devil's Spoke" on 15 March 2010. The next single released was "Rambling Man", on 10 May 2010. The track "What He Wrote" was inspired by letters from a wife to her husband in the Second World War.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 What He Wrote )〕 On 28 March 2010, ''I Speak Because I Can'' entered the official UK Charts at #4.〔(Music Week - Boyzone's Brother holds off GaGa's Fame )〕 and has been certified Silver for sales of 60,000 in the UK. Back-up vocals are provided throughout the album by Marcus Mumford, the lead singer and guitarist of London based folk band Mumford & Sons. These are especially prevalent on the tracks "Hope in the Air" and "I Speak Because I Can".
Early radio promos of the album contained four tracks that did not make the final commercial release. Two of these tracks, "Mama, How Far I've Come" and "Nature of Dust" were made available as a b-side to the single "Rambling Man" and an iTunes bonus track, respectively; the other two tracks, "Rebecca" and "Is A Hope" have still not seen a commercial release to date.
==Background and Themes==
The themes are described by Marling as being centred on the roles of women and men in society. The album is written in the first person, but is rarely autobiographical. The song, ''Devil's Spoke'' is reported by Marling as being inspired by the Odyssey, while the final track, ''I Speak Because I Can'', is informed by Margaret Atwood's novella, The Penelopiad, a counterpoint to Homer's epic. The song, ''Goodbye England (Covered In Snow)'', according to Marling, is about a walk she and her family took to a church during winter.
