I love her. she is real and true to her genre. she is powerful and gentle at the same time. she knows me even as we have never met. openions are like a holes every one has one. i defended their right to be wrong.
The lyrics of this song are just perfection. The powerful thing about this song to me, is the fact that every time I think about my Ex I really do feel what she is singing! I thought he was everything to me and gave him the best part of me. Only to be played and left to ripe what sewed by thinking about him every walking hour of my life! I hope to one day get over him, but until than I have Tracy Chapman (THANK YOU)
cela fait un bien fou, que de se rendre compte qu'il existe encore des choses, juste belle à pleurer. quel bonheur que d'écouter cette grande artiste !
I used to think consider gravity, If I placed you on a pedestal You'd slip and fall for me.....Yes you didn't....Wow she really has a way of speaking my thoughts!
I love you, you have shared my pain, in violence and truth be told, you know me, and you have told me in your songs, and still I wish there was a way out! I wish that there was an answer to Abuse, You give me hope and I will listen! You are my mentor, and still I am trying to fiqure it out!
I used to think It took all my time Analyzing you Your mind on my mind Your name my mantra Repeated on my lips That once tried to kiss you A memory unrepressed Stop thinking of you Stop thinking of you Stop thinking of you
I was wondering if someone can give me a small analysis of the song... What they get of it.... Is that I had asked several people and is amazing how everyone had such a different understanding of the song... I'm just interested...
Beautiful song,Beautiful sound, Beautiful lyrics, Beautiful feelings.........of course, its the Beautiful Tracy!!! I love this singer, always at the Top due to the great choices she makes!
I used to think About what's real and true What can not be proven What can be assumed Once when I was younger In the bloom of youth I received an honest answer When a lie would do Chorus: And now all I do is sit In my darkened room And on accasion break my silence To howl at the moon To curse every nerve And neuron in my brain That won't stop the pain I'm feeling And let me stop thinking
To lytetc! (got bored with the rest of it!) I agree with inersanctum it is not a tautology, nice cup of tea is! (Would you ask for a bad one? no? then nice is not needed! Tautology!) Rest in peace is possibly an oxymoron; words not usually put together, not an unnecessary addition to a sentence that adds nothing! However you moron! You were supposed to be listening to a great song! Not teaching an English class badly!
Tracy is amazing.... I get very bad panic/anxiety attacks but listening to Tracy calms me right down in no time... she's a window to the soul and inspiration of a lot of people! love you always Tracy !!
@lytjAdynamiTe no smart ass i don't know wtf rip means learn me, u r reply doesn't make any sense at all, and no my sentence is not tautological, so be quiet
Tracy, you are the only one that gets me into Trans. You took over me since I was 12...I'm on my 30's...I'm not going to ask you what's your power cause I know it!
I love Tracy. I am 14 years old and I admire her for her determination to change her life! I was stubborn at first cuz she was a older singer you know...and then i listened to her latest CD and fell in love. People of all ages can relate to her stories in her songs!
@nikkifridley95 i'm 14 too and i totally agree that all ages can relate to her beautiful lyrics that have poured from her heart , i think she's amazing and i adore listening to her , she's amazing , keep singing tracy!!! :D
Tracy's two first albums in the 80's were genial. But then... what has happened to her music? She's not the only singer/songerwriter lost her talent. Where is Sinead O'Connor, where Sarah McLachlan... This song is one of her best ones from the recent years though. Addictive!
I like how the background music suggests the passage of time, and the percussion being somehow out of sync with time passing- and of course the lyrics and melody are brilliantly soulful. I think Tracy Chapman is one of the most underrated and truly genius singer/songwriters in existence!
Smooth and crispy! :) <3
