Yes! Her voice is steeped in the gospel/jazz/soul traditions and she is on record talking about her influences from these genres (I mean, she shouts out Mavis Staples during this performance!) We really are due a disco record from her.
What's the sense in sharing this one and only life Ending up just another lost and lonely wife You count up the years And they will be filled with tears Love only breaks up to start over again You'll get the babies But you won't have your man While he is busy loving every woman that he can, uh-huh Say I'm gonna leave A hundred times a day It's easier said than done When you just can't break away (Just can't break away) Oh, young hearts run free They'll never be hung up Hung up like my man and me My man and me Ooh, young hearts To yourself be true Don't be no fool when love really don't love you Don't love you It's high time now, just one crack at life Who wants to live in trouble and strife My mind must be free to learn all I can about me, mmm I'm gonna love me for the rest of my days Encourage the babies every time they say Self preservation is what's really going on today Say I'm gonna turn loose A thousand times a day How can I turn loose When I just can't break away (When I just can't break away) Oh, young hearts run free They'll never be hung up Hung up like my man and me You and me Ooh, young hearts To yourself be true Don't be no fool when love really don't love you Don't love you Young hearts run free They'll never be hung up Hung up like my man and me My man and me Oh, young hearts To yourself be true Don't be no fool when love really don't love you It don't love you Ooh, young hearts run free They'll never be hung up Hung up like my man and me My man and me Oh, young hearts To yourself be true Don't be no fool when love really don't love you Don't love you Ooh, young hearts run free They'll never be hung up Hung up like my man and me
All soul/funk/disco tonight with a bit of regae thrown in, not a guitar band in sight, the show was crying out for a bit of rock n roll. Worst New Year show ever, boring.
Yeah I know what you mean but when things are going to shit, as they have been recently, people like to party. I actually quite enjoyed the show overall but I can see why you may not have :)
m j I takes all sorts I suppose, Jools usually caters for all tastes in his New Year show, this show was too one dimentional but glad someone enjoyed it.
A great show this year, so many great performances, great crowd too, they really made it a special night, I loved the soul disco funk vibe, got everyone dancing and really happy ❤️
Seen Mavis a few times, even this year at our Byron Bluesfest and she’s 84 ! Considering what she faced in her lifetime she’ll keep moving just as long as she wants to 😂👏🙏 whilst gargling on her cigars 😂🎶
Beth Ditto, a virtual heavyweight in the entertainment industry of music and film, astounds the audience as she performs in this rendition of, 'Young Hearts Run Free'. ☝️😮
well nothing quite replaces the original with all due respect! And those tattoos are not great for harmony and love in the world , on women, they act like magnets for pimps, drug dealers and gangsters to carry their dirty work! They have also been recently linked to cancer! Great voice though and great song!
