This version is so much better than the album version. Sometimes less is more and this is raw, emotional, minimal, beautiful perfection. I wish I could add this version to my Spotify list. This makes you feel.
Please excuse me here. I'm a 40 year old guy - usually have disdain for most music that came after the 80s - or even 90s in some cases. I *just* heard this on the radio this afternoon. Bought the song - listened 6 times in a row. Now I found this version. I don't even know what the song totally means - but I have tears listening. So sorry....but this is just plain fucking beauty.
Eu nao falo ingles mas consegui entender seu comentario...bem vindo ao clube,ela é maravilhosa,essa musica é linda,realmente toca fundo na nossa alma...tenho 33 anos e sou fã dela desde os 12...ela é MARAVILHOSA...procure as outras letras das musicas dela, voce vai gostar :)
I have been listening to Alanis since Jagged Little Pill came out. She is an amazing writer who can encapsulate an emotion and than throw it at your face. She has made me cry more times than I can count.
i agree. ...heard this first time from alanis 24th jan 2018 live... sydney; words cannot describe. and for whatever its worth good sir... ...at first, it were a tribute for me to my childhood ideas about god. ...but today it became the most beautiful way to say goodbye to the idea of loving someone very special. i hope you find your meanings someday. this song is very special and i'm sure somehow it still has gifts for you. so don't stop listening along the way ;)
Grande Alanis Morissette linda maravilhosa ótima musica perfeita desde os anos 90 que curto Alanis Morissette e sempre vou curtir ALANIS MORISSETTE para sempre
This song is amazing ...this version is better than any version before it. I've been Alanis Morrissette fan since her first album. I feel truly blessed and inspired to to know that there's such beautiful music like this in the world!🎼
Totally get her point at the end and I totally get what she was singing about! I certainly feel grief and loss whenever I'm pushed into giving up any childhood illusion such as: There's no such thing as 'Rock Bottom' and 'Everyone gets their heart broken at some point along the way!! This song just means so much to me now I've been through the mill a bit!
It doesn't get much better than this. How the hell could it? Thank you Alanis for so compassionately yet succinctly stating the human condition. There is no cure as irrefutable for "incurable optimism" as personal history. Despite such dishearteningly Lucid Moments, the universal baggage of evolution; lest we all forget, growing old beats the Hell out of the only other option. Peace.
Yes, Alanis did create a sub-category rock genre, Spirit rock. But many of the girls inspired by her don't have the vocal quality she has. That's what makes her stands out
You'll rescue me, right? In the exact same way they never did I'll be happy, right? When your healing powers kick in You'll complete me, right? Then my life can finally begin I'll be worthy, right? Only when you realize the gem I am? But this won't work now, the way it once did And I won't keep it up even though I would love to Once I know who I'm not, then I'll know who I am But I know I won't keep on playing the victim These precious illusions in my head Did not let me down when I was defenseless And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends This ring will help me yet, as will you, knight in shining armor This pill will help me yet, as will these boys gone through like water But this won't work as well as the way it once did 'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss And though I know who I'm not, I still don't know who I am But I know I won't keep on playing the victim These precious illusions in my head Did not let me down when I was a kid And parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend I've spent so long firmly looking outside me I've spent so much time living in survival mode But this won't work now, the way it once did 'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss And though I know who I'm not, I still don't know who I am But I know I won't keep on playing the victim These precious illusions in my head Did not let me down when I was defenseless And parting with them is like parting with an invisible best friend These precious illusions in my head Did not let me down when I was a kid And parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend
The blinker is blinking. to make you live. Spelling you words. Silent it is. The truth to it all. For all you did. Gone with the breeze. Gone with the wind. A chance to remember. And as you give. A smile with love. To kill all the sins. The talk of it all. Tonic and gin. The blinker was blinking. Again and again. Only for you. To kill all there sins. a chance to remember. From down within. So silent the words. Oh please won't you live. To kill all the killers. To kill all the sins. Only for you. Again and again. The blinker was spelling. The tonic and gin. A chance to remember. From all that you did. Gone with the breeze. Gone with the wind. Only to remember. From down within. How much I love you. Through tonic and gin. Oh what a memory. Experienced to live. The blinker was spelling. Again and again. Imagine this moment. Imagine no sins. The gain from it all. The tonic and gin.😇=LWR=+
