Ani Difranco When You Were Mine

[yancybutler]

Of course Ani Turns everything into Gold but I'm really into the Tegan and Sara cover.

[antibling]

It's a cover of a song by that little goblin Prince...someone sent it through the ether to me this morning and I can't stop smiling, impeccable timing on this one and cute cover too :)

[tierra1122tierra]

[city212girl]

Is this cover on any albums? I can't find it anywhere!

[iknowwitchfu]

@city212girl ....no, sorry...it's not.

[sjorsdude]

@iknowwitchfu It is somewhere.....I have it on my computer....but it is called unknown album :):). Anyway, must be able to find the song on the net for sure

[iknowwitchfu]

@sjorsdude ....I mean that it is not on any of her "regular" albums.....any of the albums that are for sale if you were to go to buy any of them.....it's either off of the "Demo" she never released....or it's from a concert...but, it's not on any of her regular albums....

[SqrrlGrrl3DCG]

@city212girl it is by a local artist..Macy O parker..good luck :)

[anjyrulz]

I was at this show! Thank you for posting this. It was a great night. She is so amazing.

[iknowwitchfu]

@anjyrulz ....YOU BET!!!!!!.....she IS amazing, isn't she.....I've been in love with her for 18 years and counting...still trying to figure out how to kidnap her from one of her concerts and hide her in my closet......

[TheTheCashMoneyMilli]

Bad to the bone I love you Ani & Prince & I aspire to be as real & open & in touch with my passions as you. I sing & write music & play guitar I love it. It has saved me but you are sooooooo good!

[annnaclaire]

Any ballad + Maceo melts me to the floor

[MysticMoonGoddess67]

She played this song the very first time i saw her.

[KaelaCarver]

I LOVE this song, and when I found that she covered it I was ALL OVER IT lol. And she does the typically amazing job she always does haha. mmm. Love it!

[Akudamastone]

This cover is amazing! Such a Righteous Babe! <3 Ani

[purplemadonna1]

I was totally at this show!

[breakinrachel]

I love her version of this song!! She effin' rocks!!

[jeeastham]

Mmmm... maceo in the background on sax..

[verodeal]

I haven't heard the prince version but this one is absolutely wonderful I could listen to this forever I wish I could have been hers and still be hers but my husband wouldn't agree oh well

[Ausshiraz]

Aww... I LOVE this version! Can't wait to see her in Philly.

[ariesandcandyagDolls]

please tell me

wat song are these following lyrics from:

"and i wonder if everything i do, i do instead of something i want to do more.

and I try to draw the line, but it ends up running down the middle of me most of the time.

some days the line I walk turns out to be straight -- other days the line tends to deviate."

[iknowwitchfu]

"and I wonder..." is from the song "Joyful Girl"

"And I try to draw the line" is from the song "Out of Range"...

"Some days the line I walk.." is from the song "In or Out"

[ariesandcandyagDolls]

@iknowwitchfu thanx :D

[Canirow]

im not sure about the name but i heard it first on the living in clip album

[1988insomniac]

@ariesandcandyagDolls -the song you're talkin about is "in or out"

[daredevilmason]

Yeah, I kinda figured this song might have the "Signs" syndrome. You know, originally performed in the early 70's by "Five Man Electrical Band" but most people under 30 only know it as a cool song by the heavy metal (ok, glam metal) rock band, Tesla. Of course the same stuff happens to me once in a while, especially with songs from the 60's and 50's (I was born in 68).

[daredevilmason]

How many people didn't know that prince was the "purple" person she was talking about who wrote this song ?

[iknowwitchfu]

OHH...too funny!!! I couldn't stop laughing at this comment!! That was the same thing I thought!!!! HAHAHAHA!!! Too good!!

[nawalwatani]

lol.. i hope no one

[jtorres9231]

This has to be the best version. Ani makes my skin melt and somehow hits every note that I carry inside me.

[iknowwitchfu]

Ani has a passion that I haven't been able to find in anyone since I began listening to her (that was in '92!!!)...and yeah...you gotta pick me up off the floor after this song!!!

[tqiblawi]

i wonder why she changed the genders in the words..? is that not strange?

[iknowwitchfu]

The only thing I can think of is maybe she's silently "dedicating" this to someone....because I must agree with you...I had to listen to it again to try to figure it out, and that's the only possibility I can think of...

[tqiblawi]

i think you're right...thx

[city212girl]

@tqiblawi Because she's a woman singing a song written by a man... makes sense to me. She changed other words around too, and in my opinion made the song better.

[nhf7170]

As much as I love Cyndi Lauper, this version just makes me melt. Beautiful.

[iknowwitchfu]

ummm...yeah, there's just something about Ani....and what more can I say???

[candace2308]

i LOVE her version the best!! glad its posted

[iknowwitchfu]
