Unfortunately Maria can't shoot those amazing notes anymore. Nice to know we all don't age well. I'm amazed at the older performers that can still sound like they are 18 again. This song brings back some amazing memories in Marin County :)
There are better examples of Maria singing live on youtube. She can still sing, Look around. If this was "recorded" in 2010, she was 66 and going strong. Factor in a 20 hour flight, bamboo bed and someone with a cheap hand held camera.
I was cut off, but I love your stye Mzria. Anyway, at the same time I'm watching a Shaft movie- I believe u guys r around the same era. (smile) Well I am watching Shaft and I just started to cry; maybe it's a flashback of something i didn't want to face, but Maria I can see my past and feel my past because I was listening to your song. By the way- it just pop up in my head. i Love u. These flashbacks are good because I'm going to face my wrongs and kick ass. Thanks.
Why try to rationalize with these punk one shots. You can't listen to an acoustically bad piece and determine a singer's worth. She gave life to her song in the early 70's....over 40 years ago!!!....IF people are still listening to it today AND she is still selling seats that speaks for itself. A sexy song and songstress!!!
@TheArizonaMark It's too bad you're so stupid. If I were a moron like you, I sure wouldn't be broadcasting it all over YouTube. You obviously have no taste in music.
No problem to me. We all change as we grow older. it happens. Doesn't mean you stop living what you love, just because you got to go down 3 semi-tones! And I'll say this - I'll still slip off to a sand dune with Maria - any time! Real soon!
This is sad. When she did this song on the Midnight Special in 1974, the key was a three semitones (a minor third) higher. She's also revised the melody to remove the high notes she used to be able to hit.
This isn't as bad as Elton John, Roger Daltrey or Glenn Frey-- and I know she has to include the song-- but I still wouldn't see her. Really admire Grace Slick for just retiring when she couldn't hit the notes anymore
