Jefferson Airplane - Third Week In The Chelsea

[jab3785]

To take a miserable situation and create something of beauty; that's art.

[animascat]

so absolutely difficult to pick a favorite with these songs. love early stuff like it's no secret. coming up the years. love the fulton st album. guess they lived there? san francisco?

[fringer166]

such a peaceful song. love the lyrics, very nostalgic and meaningful. favorite song by Jefferson Airplane.

[majicray2112]

You say Lady Gaga.. I say Lady Gaga and Led Zeppelin. Both Great.

[apemanstreetwalker]

Thank you JA

[houshmandben]

[DrugsRasta]

You say Lady Gaga, I say Led Zeppelin

You say Hannah Montana, I say Beatles

You say Owl city, I say Deep Purple

You say Jonas Brothers, I say The Rolling Stones

You say Justin Bieber, i say Queen

You say Taylor Swift, i say Guns & Roses.

95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop songs over and over. if your one of the 5% left who still listen to real music, thunb this up, then copy and paste it to least 5 video's. DONT LET THE SPIRIT OF ROCK&ROLLDie

[pigglespoopoo]

@DrugsRasta 80% of stats are made up

[jwalsh671]

@DrugsRasta I admire your musical tastes, but the truth is there are many modern day artists who are making equally satisfying music to that of the days of yore. They may not be in the limelight, but they are out there.

[ShoeLube]

@DrugsRasta

You say [Some artist that's currently popular], I say [An artist that was popular in the past]

(Repeat to show you know lot's of bands)

A [made up high number]% of teens listen to the same crappy pop music. If your (spelt wrong to show how much soul you have) one of the [100 - number from before]% left who still listen to music that I like because I think it makes me cool then yada yada no one cares...

[deedrh]

this is one of my very favorites. i remember this song at radio city in like 1990, not sure of the date, but what a show, jorma & grace wow

[pjl1015]

Oh YEAH!!!!!!!

[ezramead]

Jorma could feel that he and Grace were not the same. Interesting that she participated on the song.

[jesseowens]

best song contained in its own track in that specific album.

[Talleyrandful]

So sad

[stillustronic]

This song seems to be a prelude (not quaalude) to the inevitable breakup of the Jefferson Airplane. Is that a statement from Captain Obvious or what. Great album all around, you can hear 3 different bands in this release, and the best part about it is, they all continued on to make great music for my archives. It was sure great to have been a fan of them while this was going on. *wipes tears from eyes*

[Sargebri]

@stillustronic Yep. Jorma definitely knew that the band was on its last legs. Of course, the first sign was when Spencer Dryden left and when Marty left that was it. They pretty much were running on fumes at that point.

[animascat]

REAL FUCKING NICE MUSIC

[sethtastical]

this is the JAM

[californiaportugee]

A MASTERPIECE!

[Tennekis]

Brought here by the move My Architect, about Louis I. Kahn, a wonderful song for a wonderful film. Thank you Prof. Susannah Honrg, NYU Liberal Studies Program

[lagunaflyguy]

What a great ballad.......that is oh so tight....thanks for posting this 1971 gem!

[ericerest]

This song is so beautifully written I cannot even describe what this song means to me

[duckman531]

Jorma wanted out, and Grace was cool with it!

[WillInNewHaven]

An interesting, to me, what if: What if the band had stayed together? Oh, they all worked and wrote and performed for years afterward and we may think they produced everything they _could_ have. But they were so huge as the Airplane and there was so much talent in that band.

[ioriorioriorio]

Use to hang in new haven back then ....state street.....nice times... never to re- appear...the oreo

[OrangeSunshine2]

This song really marks the end of the Jefferson Airplane

[jtcbrown]

@OrangeSunshine2 it sure does. great tune they made though, when they were together. this tune gives me chilly-willies.

[zombiestars42]

feels like the end of a story...

[jtcbrown]

@zombiestars42 thats cos it was. "all my friends keep telling me, to break up such a grand success and tear apart a name..."its about jorma leaving.

[OrangeSunshine2]

@jtcbrown It's about the band breaking up

[eddisc]

@zombiestars42 the 'story' was called Jefferson Airplane

[pjl1015]

SWEET!!!!

[EUGENECUB]

Wow, this definately has a grateful dead feel to it.

[khataroo]

This is one of my favorite Airplane/Tuna songs! Thanks for posting it~KHAT

[jewessjeans]

Jorma apparently writes songs in the middle of the night, and doesn't remember recording them/writing them down in the morning...this was one of those...amazing!

[keo774]

great jorma

porca madonna

[rafaescate]

I found this LP in Vinyll at some lousy CD shop at Barcelona

[Abrohill]

que rica esta canción. What sweet is this song.

[stevocooko]

Dude I love smoking weed on listening to this shit, god love hippies

[jahsper]

JA and Weed nah.... more like JA and LSD you got your trippers mixed up

[D3f11]

I get a bitter sweet feeling from this song... I love it so much but it also brings a tear to my eye...It's almost like it is their swan song.

[bayonett72]

@D3f11 beautiful tune, don't know if it's their swan song, maybe just moving on to something better. cf

[hellswinter]

@D3f11 word. I think it's because of the dynamic of Grace's bitter and Jorma's sweet tone of voice (I mean their voice specifically for this song, not in general, to be sure).

[imyourtrash]

Yay!!! JORMA!!!! GRACE!!!

[jcashfan365]

Wonderful Song!!! A Classic!

[davidhaddox]

The Title is referring tot he length of time the band ahs been together and comparing it to a stay in chelsea for three weeks. The song as well as the title are about the band coming apart , the parting of the members, and its break up.

[alexioco]

Great Song

[kelseykeefepeacelove]

love this song

[kevinnorriehunter]

kinda think i missed something really wonderfull and cool when i hear music like this

[MaxPaws]

An old friend of mine lived half his life in the Chelsea Hotel and eventually died there as well. The Chelsea was sometheing else back in the late 60's/early 70's. Jorma brings it all back with this song. Thanks for posting!

[bigeeezy]

great. thanks pyro for heads up

[pyromanic78]

hard track to find because the title seems to have no relevance (that ii can see/hear).

thanks for posting, saves d/loading another "so-called" discography.

ONE of the best songs EVER =D

[myview28]

Best song ever, thevoodoowop? Are you on crack, girlfriend? This is dreary, maudlin crap.

[wouryelcome]

been want'n to hear this song for years. Even tried programming it on Pandora, but it NEVER plays there. THANKS FOR POSTING! Now I'm gonna listen to it again...........

[Ronnie7311]

This song always made me think of the lost dreams of the 60's generation.

[bluefromanairplane]

i freaken love the biginig of this song

if only i could live to see the dawning of the dawn -JA forever

[ajf12525]

I sometimes go 2 a meditation center which is, believe it or not, on the 7th floor of the Chelsea Hotel,and I look and listen 4 that 'room that whistles like a sigh".

[flyersandfloyd]

This song is magnificent.

[jackhillty]

i listened to this song for years before i noticed grace was doing the background vocal

- completely stripped of her usual tradmarks

[thevoodoowop]

this is the best song ever
