Yeah, some people's love can feel as if they're squeezing the life out of you. I knew someone who was pissed that her husband had.....friends. "Why does he need friends when he's got *ME?"* Of course he eventually left her. Can't say I blame him.
You're learning, P. It is blues guitar. I don't want no one squeeze me, they might take away my life - she doesn't want a jealous fool that will try to change who she is. She wants a comfortable relationship with the freedom to be herself.
Exactly. Also, she doesn't want to be suffocated within the relationship. Being squeezed is a demonstration of dominance, control, and desperation. However, being held demonstrates love, tenderness, and appreciation.
I ADORE Tracy Chapman. Not only is she wonderfully talented, everything I've ever observed or read about her reveals her as a kind and gentle soul. And she's absolutely real...no pretension there. She is a rare human.
The "squeeze" part equates to excessive clinginess. She's saying that a person who is too clingy basically saps your life away, imposing themselves on you and draining the days and freedoms of your life.
Yep. If you hold on too tight, drains the life out of any loving relationship. It's not physical. She wants it to be voluntary, because the people want to be there.
@@travismiller1640 I think they were saying it’s the same sentiment and yes it’s .38 special . I quoted Mac Davis as baby don’t get hooked on me because it’s also the same sentiment . All great songs !
“Don’t squeeze me just hold me”… like metaphorical bro… like don’t smother me…just hold me gently. Don’t be a bug/crazy person/try to control me type of guy…just hold me and rock me thru the night. We are both adults here…we can both have our own lives separate from each other…but love each other at the same time… ya know?
Sure, blues has greatly influenced many genres of music, but not all. Folk, reggae, contemporary "classical" music, and industrial rock have taken very little from blues. Blues itself had its origins in West African traditional rhythms. So all western music is interconnected to a degree.
I think she means don't hold so tight that she feels trapped or can't breathe, figuratively, just hold her enough to show you care... Just my interpretation
G.O.A.T.? Let me get this right. Not Whitney, Chaka Khan, Mariah, Celine, Ann Wilson, or Stevie Nicks. Just to name a few incredible, GENERATIONAL, sirens from varied genres. But you got Natalie Chapman in the G.O.A.T. conversation!? Miss, please slowly remove your hands keyboard and walk away...
Lmao someone has a little too much time on their hands to be a keyboard bully 😂 They're all legends. Simple as that. But this isn't about anyone other than Tracy Chapman. I said what I said. Maybe you should think twice before being so rude to strangers for no reason or if they have a different opinion than yours? Time for you to go now 👋🏻
Your daughter! ! ❤! - I am the mom of a 20 yr old and i'm telling you you better enjoy the hell out of it now cuz she'll be in high school and wanting to do her own thing before you know it!
My kids are 38 and 43! And I feel like I don't know when that happened!!!! It was so fast! Like being side swiped by a fast-moving train!!! Hold them tight, but give them wings! And take LOTS of pictures!!!
One of my favorites songs from 1996, I forgot how great song this is! It won the Grammy award for Best Rock song, it definitely is a song that could fit in different genres, definitely bluesy rock
Fast Car - lyrics. Give Me One Reason - music! I’ll take blues based music every time. It’s what’s sorely missing in almost all today’s and recent music. The music industry doesn’t want to touch it, nor do the artists. Pretty much pops up only rarely, primarily in what’s left in the Rock (not metal) world. And it is a crime.
Tracy❤ She was always so groovy. Beautiful girl has a beautiful smile. She's saying if she gives her life to someone they migh smother her, that's what I gathered. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
Hey, your first most important thing in life is to be DADDY. Your daughter is everything. Love seeing that. And yes, Tracy Chapman brings a raw honesty to all her songs. Hope you raise your daughter to be that brave. Love your reactions, and send love to your family. God bless.
British people have always loved Tracey Chapman as she was invited to appear at Wembley stadium at The Nelson Mandela concert and it was so very special ❤️ 👋 I have always loved The Promise and Baby Can I Hold You. Terrific 💚👌
The soul of this lady is beyond profound! Tracy is what rhythm & blue is in totality. If you don't feel her when she performs then you are dead inside! Beautiful she is! ❤❤❤
Cool tune, Tracy is great, her cassette tape was on rotation in my car back in the day, and I'm in Ireland. So she was a world wide hit with tunes that told everyone's story in one way or another.
If u listen to Tracy Chapman's debut album, u will notice that she tells stories about other people... not necessarily her personal experiences. That was where 'Fast car' came from... a familiar story in America of the reality of young people trying to find an escape from their problems... She wrote 'Across the lines'... about race riots in America's past... the spoken word track 'Behind the wall'... was written about the reality of domestic abuse and femicide.
Everybody freaked out about how catchy this song was when it was released, and it is, but it is simple 12-bar blues (if you don't know what this is, ask a musician friend). Very clever of her to bring it to the masses, but any beginning guitarist is familiar with this form.
Classic 12 bar blues. Well-executed by Ms. Chapman. Her performance of this with Eric Clapton was great. Been listening to her since i can remember. She's a beautiful soul ❤
I love this song and I love Tracy Chapman. She is a true authentic artist! Her songwriting and singing is so pure and beautiful!! The "squeeze me" line seems like she's saying don't try to control or contain her...just love her!💖💖
Prayers for Baby and all of your precious family 🙏💜💐. This beautiful soul gives me chills everytime! Straight gift of God, all that talent in one sweet soul! Lord, Thank you! 🙏💜💐
Prayers for your baby girl. I hope she gets better soon. Her older sister is cute. She loves her daddy. 😊 …I love Give Me One Reason. Tracy is awesome!
BP, your daughter is gorgeous 😍 love when she makes her little VIP "walk ons," lol. Family first 🫶. When I was in my 20s & a first-time mom, on rough nights, my (toddler) son (now 39) would fall asleep to the soothing sounds of Tracy Chapman's voice & music. IMO Tracy is the "GOAT"!! ❤🫶
It was 1996/1997, I was in the Army, stationed in Camp Zama, Japan, coming back to work after lunch; as I pulled into the parking lot this song came on Armed Forces Radio. Never heard it, nor of her, before. I sat in the car and listened to the song all the way thru, which I NEVER did. As soon as it was over I put the car in reverse and drove to the Post Exchange just hoping they had Tracy's CD. They did, and of course I still have it all these years later.
Firstly, your Daughter is precious. Secondly, there is actually a duet of this song by Tracy Chapman and Eric Clapton, they kill it together. This is DEFINITELY the blues, and it's completely my jam! The Squeeze me line is what everyone else is saying, don't stifle me, don't control me and take my life, just love me. I loved this reaction! I always love your stuff Black P! Keep it up!
Yes .. I agree with the other commenters.... she wants someone who is not going to try to control her.. but I also think she is wanting someone who is going to love her and allow her to focus on her career. So I would think traveling a lot and being on the road.. so would need someone who is cool with that and not insecure. However.. that's just me reading a lot more into it.. and personalizing it to maybe Tracy's life at the time this song was coming out. Any ways...... I love Tracy and her musc.. and my fave three songs of hers are Forgive Me... Baby I Can Hold You.. and The Promise. All of them are top notch!!!!! Not related.. but I have to say it.. she has the best smile and dimples in the whole world!!!! 🥰😍😂 Cheers from Ontario, Canada🍁
Yes! It is certainly the blues! Hope baby is ok! 🙏🏼 great song! Love Alynia, she is so adorable! Seeing how you are with her makes me smile and makes my heart happy! ❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
Great example of the 12 bar blues chord progression. It is the best vehicle for both lyrics and soloing any instrument...and tracy has the perfect voice for blues, i wish she did more in this style
