Goodbye California

[cheshirealleycat]

Amazing, her voice. lovely lass

[mrtreb20]

i dont understand a single word ! ...

is she drunk ? or high

[poopsluts]

Took the words right out of my mouth.

[downwithpc]

Yes prolific. When I saw her perform it live it bought a tear to the eye

[downwithpc]

When Im pre-meditating crime of a personal kind and Im about to go out of my mind this song is an island in my swallow sea. Jolie Holland Bless you and you music

[ravnar101]

Wow the lyrics and song are so prolific. She's contemplating suicide, this is what the song is about, beautiful...

[ravnar101]

Wow, the song and the lyrics are so prolific. She's contemplating suicide on the song.

[jhannigan210]

Aww damn I was hoping this was a cover of the Queers song.

[kekesmith]

you're right sanQ

it's a cover of janis ?

[katmaidog]

Janis SANG Bobby McGee, but Kris Kristofferson wrote it. Therefore, Janis covered Kris. And since this song is NOT Bobby McGee, Jolie is not covering anyone.

[TsarNick77]

brilliant video quality

[cheetodedo]

Beautiful. I can't help but hearing Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster's Me and Bobby McGee in there.

[flasp11]

I'm pre-meditating crime of a personal kind

I'm about to go out of my mind

I'm just about sick to death of taking breath

And walking this line of mine

Now, folks that know what's good for them

Are good at ignoring them

But I just can't put these thoughts down

I'm harrowed and abused

And broken and pursued

By this notion that follows me around

[flasp11]

My heart is hurting My spirit's burdened I feel like a liar and a thief For taking air For being here Unwanted I look for my final release Goodbye, goodbye, California Goodbye and I'll be moving on I sang you my songs I know i'm wrong Fare thee well And I'll be moving on

[flasp11]

When I'm dead and gone My immortal home Will hold me in its bosom Safe and cold No more desires Will light their fires Or disturb my immaculate calm And the birds of the air And the beasts of the soil And the fishes of the desperate seas Will know who I am And our substance will expand As part of everything

[flasp11]

As part of everything, my God As part of everything And the clouds will roll And the wind will blow And the beautiful birds will sing Goodbye, goodbye, California Goodbye to your waving trees To you succulent wind And all my friends Fare thee well Goodbye So be it Amen Amen

[billtrenary]

[gdt9695]

This girl is amazing!I agre with RandomFactory,She leaves me speachless.I cant wait to see her live.Please come to Fl.Jolie!

[RandomFactory]

I normally havde too much to say but this incredible song leaves me speechless! Whether I'm driving around in California or somewhere else it makes me happy to hear Jolie singing "Goodbye"...

[sanQ]

This song sounds a little like Me and Bobby McGee.

[katmaidog]

I agree.

[wimwanders]

I wish I was there

[danielle9109]

I'm going to go crazy if I don't see her live soon. This is a great video by the way.

[fireflytattoo]

Yummy.

[ffrriittzz]

Was her band playing with her that night as well?

[katmaidog]

Nope. She was totally solo. just Jolie and a guitar and a fiddle and a chair and a mike.

[stencilgraf]
