WOW! WHAT WORD COULD SAY WHAT THIS SONG DOES TO THE SOUL; I REMEBER MEETING TRACY IN DALLAS,TX . IT WAS POURING RAIN AND SHE PERFORM IN THE ART DISTRACT; MY GIRLFRIEND RAN TO THE CAR; AND ASK TRAY IF SHE COULD JUST TOUCH AND HER HAND; AND TRACY SHLY SMILE; ( OH THE SMILE THAT SHE HAS) AND SHE EXTENDED HER HAND TO MY EX; AND WHEN THEY CONNECTED; MY EX COULD NOT MOVE; ME; I JUST STOOD THERE AND NEVER WANTED THAT MOMENT TO END****JAZPERI
Estou pronta, pronta aos 38 anos, porque realmente a vida começa depois dos 30 anos , as escolhas acertadas, as águas brandas que nos levam a felicidade, sem frenesi, apenas deixando-se levar. Estou pronta. Vamos rio da vida me leve, mas com carinho....... estou pronta, estou pronta......
I don't believe Tracy is any more special then any1 else....No, she is not! but, what she is, is in the presence of God...Open, unfeathered by our material world and unmoved by the state of being that is outside the state of God-oness. Be Blessed.
I was introduced to the real Tracy Chapman music by a friend I had only hear the mainstream stuff. I was hooked instantly after hearing what didn't make it to the radio SOOOOO much more inspiring than the songs that went main stream
The beauty of Tracy Chapman is her ability or rather her inability to be anything but SINCERE and her refusal to compromise on her artistic vision to suit the money machine that the music industry is. She HAS and ALWAYS been true to herself.
I listen to this song when im stressed and i just lay in bed and cry until i cant cry anymore i wipe away my tears and i feel so much better after i just let it all out this so has so much meaning <3
I'm posting this via a friends account.... I love this song... My Mum passed away a couple of yearz ago and we used to listen to Tracy Chapman while we were cleaning the house together among many other thingz.... she choose this song to be played at her funeral and every time I hear it, I am reminded of fond memoriez me and my Mama shared, not just this song but the whole album, Tracy Chapman is extremely talented....
first time i´ve listened to her music was with my dad and i still know that i asked him who he is because i thought she was a guy :p but even i was just 6 years old i´ve realized that her music is special and i still realize this. love her music <3
,,So I say Thank you for the music, the songs you're singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me''
I'm glad to live in a world where Tracy Chapman gets to live, where she gets to sing for me. Most people do what they have to do, in this world she gets to do what she should be doing. That's a nice place.
I am listening to this music, 10 years later! It came out in 1995. Tracy Chapman is still one of my favorite singer/songwriters. Her lyrics are compelling and her voice is so distinct and inimitable
I left a status on FB about how I was heartbroken and nowhere near ready to leave my love, who lives in Seattle, and fly back to Cincinnati. A friend left this on my wall and nearly made me cry. Thank you for this song, Ms. Chapman. <3
I played this song over and over....me and my cat would sit on the balcony in Arizona....now 7 years later...here comes my cat...jumping up on the couch...and just taking it easy...listening to our song.
i'm ready....tired of waitin'....want to go where the rivers are overflowing, I'll be ready, I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me...How long? How long? How long, God? HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO WAIT???????
@eatcaca2012 So your saying that person posted their story onto the internet and wanted it to remain private? That was an incredibly insensitive and stupid thing to say. And the person was grateful to @@leilouche16 you moron.
to mimiloves music :you made me cry with your message , i hope your mother is listening to you from heaven , its a great honor from her to let you a beautiful heritage through tracy chapman songs caus tracy is an angel ,you ought to listen again and playing that song , this song will make you stronger ,and ready to live our life without people we lost ,i listen to tracy since i was 8years , now im 28 years im always touched by her songs , because their word come from the heart .
When I was child, my mum use to play this song all the time, I never understood the words till today I played this song again, unfortunately I can't get on the phone and tell my mum that I now know the meaning of the song now because she died when I was 11. Oh mum, thanks for making me a Tracy Chapman fan.. and you definitely made me ready for this world..
My Lord this song really touched me today, Tracy Chapman your voice is anointted by our Heavenly Father of God. Beautiful and that you are Ms. Tracy Chapman I been listening to your music since I was 18yrs old the song that capture me was Fastcar! I am now 40 yrs old and you are still blessing my soul! I love you sister and continue to keep on keeping on:)
Long-time TC fan, but somehow missed this one....Now I can't stop listening to it. Seems she captured a feeling so simple, so beautiful and so deep with this hypnotic and spiritual song. Thanks, Janie for posting, and thanks Tracy for being you.
what can one say after this wonderful song?...but....thank you Lord for Tracy!!!! for your beauty thru her voice and singing...thank you for blessing us one more time..we...humans...
This has long been one of my all-time favorite songs. One of those special few that touches me deep down, reaches down to my core. On one hand, I wish there were more music like this. But then, it's so special because so little music is as powerful and emotional as this. I'm ready...
I adore Tracy Chapman and her music, AND her natural talent and unique ability to stay humble/down-to-earth within the music industry.
This song often makes me laugh when I remember an episode of Sponge Bob Square Pants where Sponge Bob kept shirking (in the annoying voice) "i'm ready, iiiiii'm ready, i'm ready, i'm ready! iiiiiiiiiiiiiii'm ready!"
@ThompsonMiss lol, now you just put it in my head, now everytime I listen to this song that I love, I will remember Spongebob and his "I´m ready, I´m ready, I´m ready"
truly beautiful...i could see myself listening to this 10 years from now...the type of music thats timeless..tarcy is an excellent siger and song writer...legendary female artist..truly blessed and gifted..
@sbstnpofadder im 27 and i'v been listening to this already for over 10 yrs so you probably will lol i luv Tracy's music it helps me to free my mind and relax
This is wondefully sentimentally deep spiritual song about what the soul long for Tracy.
Love Sky Jackson.
