Serious Playground
Loading...
Uploaded by femmecorbeau on May 3, 2011
A song by Laura Nyro, the great singer/songwriter of such songs as "And When I Die", "Eli's Coming" and so many more, and though many people and groups covered her songs, you have to hear her sing them in her own strong, passionate voice..
"Serious Playground" is from her last studio album, "Angel in the Dark", recorded in 1994-95 and released posthumously. She died of cervical cancer in April, 1997, just as her mother did before her, both at age 49. I have read that she was sick during these last recordings, and I always think how profound and courageous these words are: "I'm down for the music of my life..."

Thank you for posting ! Laura Nyro has been one of my favorite singer songwriters since the early 70's. I was searching for Triple Goddess Twilight to post on my fb page in honor of Mother's Day. I couldn't find it here, but happy to discover Serious Playground.
