Alanis Morissette - Magical Child (Guy Sigsworth Version)

This is the original/Guy Sigsworth version of "Magical Child" from "Every Mother Counts," NOT the mix that is featured on Havoc and Bright Lights bonus track/deluxe version that was done by Joe Chiccarelli.

"Magical Child" is a new song from Alanis' Havoc and Bright Lights sessions. It will NOT appear on the new album, but is available on the compilation album Every Mother Counts, Volume 2, which supports Christy Turlington's charity. Please pick up this record at your local Starbucks during the month of May. $8 of every purchase goes directly to the charity: http://www.starbucks.com/blog/every-m...

The new Alanis album, Havoc and Bright Lights, produced with Guy Sigsworth, out August 28, with the first single "Guardian" (link above) out May 15. The tracklist for that album is as follows: Guardian / Woman Down / Til You / Celebrity / Empathy / Lens / Spiral / Numb / Havoc / Win and Win / Receive / Edge of Evolution

It's quite simple when I'm listening
you keep leading me all the way home
these messages you've been offering
as a magical child
an essential child

when it hinges on the driver seat
it depends on who's in control
when I waver on the attuning
I kill a magical child
this essential child
oh

to thine own self be true
to my core self be true

when direction is confounding
when vitality is far gone
when the spark is out, uninspiring
I call the magical child
the essential child
oh

to thine own self be true
to my core self be true

when I'm lost and I'm unraveling
when I'm off my track
and I float
when I need true north
and some grounding
I call the magical child
the essential child
this angelic child
this innocent child

to thine own self be true
to my core self be true

angelic child
magical child
essential child

god when poeple will realise that artists are not robots and they actually change through time...this is evolution of someone who was 20 and its now nearly 40...im sick of people complaining of the 90's artists that "lost" what they had in their first steps..why cant we just be happy that some of them are still standing and making music...if you dont like it listen smth else.

Vocally and sonically fresh. Even without listening, just reading the lyrics is like poetry. Such a rarity these days...

[Bella Angel]

To my core self be true ........ angelic, magical, essential, child ~🌟.......

[Roger Kenner]

This song is lame

[James Boxer]

This song is messed up and clutter style. Ok but a waste of time to listen to more than once really. I tried to like it but whatever.
