Rhythm & Romance (Rosanne Cash album)
Rhythm & Romance was the fifth studio album by American country music singer Rosanne Cash. It was released in May 1985. Her highest honor came when one of its tracks, "I Don't Know Why You Don't Want Me", won the 1985 Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance by a female artist. That song and "Never Be You" were both No. 1 Billboard country singles. Two other tracks rose to the No. 5 spot on the charts: "Hold On" and "Second to No One."

gollark: ... is your website pulling in 250KB of in-browser Lua VM on every page and not using `async`/`defer` for it?
gollark: Although you could *sort of* do those things with a static site too.
gollark: Mine is designed as a mostly-static website, which doesn't do either of those.
gollark: I went to a lot of effort to speed up my site, including inlining the CSS in the page itself, so it has to be small.
