"On The OtherSide" Janis Ian

[sisiri]

Janis Ian in the beginning always completely annotated her vocals with either guitar or piano chords which was brillliant; not the transformed chords with simplified vocals but the original thing. I can recall in Holland it were one of the few scores where vocals and score completely diverted so it was a great challenge to play and sing at the same time.

Is there a studio version of this? Can't find one on you tube

[zz1988]

real music!

Janis Ian has been one of my favorites since I learned guitar to her in the 60's, & I've NEVER heard this song before. How hauntingly beautiul and so true. Is the song "This can't be right" on here that she wrote and is on her Aftertone's album (I think). I could only find Helen Reddy doing half of it, and she wasn't too bad, either, which surprised me!

...is she one of the best guitarists is the world or is she one of

the best songwriters in the world. It is hard to tell...especially

when you hear her play piano.

[yrfan4ever]

Such a great artist ! I saw her perform live once, never saw anyone better, ever.

[AyngelJ]

This song makes me think of my Grandma every time I hear it...and how much I miss her...Thank you for the lovely video.

[swalker0116]

@AyngelJ right before my mother died when she was in the hospital she would talk about the kids that would come to the foot of her bed and want her to play with them. I am sorry for your lost. I know exactly how you feel.

[ananuninki]

Just beautifull...wonderful thank you for your gift to us...

[ullahoo]

And I've only discovered Janis Ian very recently! Feel blessed!

[rufkate2]

This woman is the lovliest person on the earth.I have been an AVID fan of hers for over 30 yrs. and wow.....I could go on and on and on and on.....

[spoony2112]

Thank you SOOOO much for this vid! I heard this song when I was is Australia years ago and I am so happy that someone posted this song! It is absolutely brilliant! :)

[hobbissfoo]

this song makes me cry every time i hear it.

[Skyefree]

she's such an incredible human being. it's amazing that such talent has been basically lost on, quite frankly, my generation especially..her music is haunting and beautiful and amazing. just wow.

[lucinda2005]

Janis has a beautiful voice. She is blessed. I love you, Jani and i wish I could give you a big Hug. Please watch my soul touching vid:"We will see you again". I think you will like it.

[4220220]

what's sad is this sond only gets 14000 views and something from the likes of miley cyrus gets millions....this song is amazing..and Janis Ian is amazing, I hope some day that the word will wake up and appreciate good music. I hope someday that artist like Janis Ian and Ani Difranco won't be stuck in obcurity, and people will understand what real music is, not manufactured bs.

[kemplerbrave]

hey 4220220 i agree 100 percent with what you said. i love both of them janis and ani. i'm going to see janis in novemeber. it'll be great.

[jonieheffner]

@4220220 ..i got news for you...this is the world wide web

and we have disproportionate amount of idiots in our society

who are working computers.

[pompom11]

[exzellentdriver]

towers..911.
