The story of how she out of nowhere during Nelson Mandela birthday tribute concert at Wembley Stadium, went on stage. It was just her and her acoustic guitar-in front of 70,000 restless fans, and millions of TV viewers. No one knew who she really was. She was not meant to have been there, but because of issues. They asked people to go out there, but no one wanted, because people where getting annoyed, and she did it. And she has been a legend ever since. She silenced everyone, with just her acoustic guitar and a microphone.
I got into Tracy Chapman back in the mid 80s. Her story telling while so musically skilled is some of the easiest to listen to music I've heard.... One can really hear the emotions in her voice. 💘 🎶 You should see her first appearance on stage where she fills in for a band that cancelled... She blew the audience away with just her voice and acoustic guitar
A small girl with a BIG voice and presence. Her album was amazing, I just listened to it constantly. There were no disappointing tracks .... every one was a banger!
Tracy Chapman is a legend. You can't go wrong with any of her songs. I recommend you listen to "Behind the Wall". It is short and simple, but has such saw emotion. It's beautiful and painful at the same time.
Her first album is incredible. I heard fast car on the radio before the album released and was instantly hooked. I got the cassette and played it in the car till I wore it out. It didn’t sound like anything on the radio and I loved that.
I don't' know how old this performance is, but this song was popular in a time when nobody carried a phone in their pocket. Looking at Tracy, I'm guessing this performance goes that far back (maybe 30 years or so).
Tracy Chapman is great, but if I'm being honest, I don't know this song. I really only know the two big hit songs she had back in the day, "Fast Car" and "Give Me One Reason", but they're great songs, and she's obviously very talented. I do remember when she first became popular with "Fast Car", which is a great song, and really blew everyone away at the time, but I think the story going around then was that she had previously been homeless. Which probably was true at some point, but was also probably exaggerated at the time, because "Fast Car" is a song about living in poverty, and I think they were trying to market her with this whole "rags to riches" story, which again, probably was true to some extent, but maybe exaggerated some?
I have seen Tracy live in Paris in 1988 at the Human Rights Now concert. And it was so impressive. That little girl, solo on that huge stage, and everybody was silent when she sung..... Again, it was very impressive. And very good!
Hi Biss... You have to listen the most Tracy'song than you can... "Talking about, révolution, Fast car,..." and so many others... Very big and sincere talented woman... Kisses from France...🥰🥰🥰
She is a fine artiste. Great voice, great songs. The whole album from which this song came is a treasure. Deep and full of meaning. Fast Car is probably her most well known song. But they could all go on a playlist. Hoping you and yours are well. Have a great weekend.
Beautiful song, Sometimes it's hard for some people to express themselves. But it's always good to express our feelings to the one we Love. Or to the one we want to impress 😂❤❤❤ Thank you Biscute you are Amazing!!!
The Luke Combs & Tracy Chapman performance of Tracy's song "Fast Car" from this year's Grammy's is a must-see performance. (I just went back and rewatched it after typing my original note...and it will bring tears. It's just that good.)
Hello Bisscute, wow, now you really struck a chord with me with this song, how can I not remember it along with Fast Car, perhaps their greatest success, two beauties of songs that I loved when they came out. Tracy Chapman!! Wow, I hadn't heard from her in a while, was it a coincidence, or did you schedule her for her recent performance at the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles? Well, anyway, the fact is that he is here on your channel to delight us with his incredible voice and those beautiful lyrics. Once again, you were very successful with this guest. For another occasion, I want to suggest Amanda Miguel performing the song El me mintió, in the more mature version, I think that over time, she sang it even better than when she was young, I think it could impress you. Thank you and a special hug on International Women's Day, from Mexico City. Beautiful weekend.
That was a big album when it came out. I remember listening to it a lot at the time. It's kind of hard to believe it was 1988 when that came out. As others will say "Fast Car" is her most powerful tune.
Recommend: Govt Mule. The song is a Allman Brothers Band song called Soulshine, live in 2007 with guests Gregg Allman, Derek Trucks, and Trey Anastacio.😊😊❤❤
I spent a couple of very happy years in Germany, was fortunate to travel round a lot, Munic Frankfurt Dresden Hamburg Hanover, and several small villages, one that stays in my memory was Kirchenbachau excuse my spelling. I had the offer of a permanent job with a barge company near a small town called Nienburg again excuse spelling, a big regret not staying it probably saved me a lot of grief and heartache later on in my life
Great singer, very nice song and voice and great reaction Miss Bisscute congrats for this one❤❤❤. Your reactions to live performances are The Best. For future reactions please: Peter Gabriel secret world live tour songs: In your eyes ahd Shaking the tree. INXS live baby live from Wemblay (1991) songs: What you need and Suicide Blonde. You Will love those live performances 😊
Yes Tracey Chapmans voice is phenomenal her song fast cars is a classic recommend that one as well and i would love you to review Ummet Ozcan with Otyken songs Altay
This is a beautiful performance, but I am so shocked this the the first Tracy Chapman song you reacted to. You should now do GIVE ME ONE REASON TO STAY HERE, and then do FAST CAR (leaving the best for last). If you liked this song, you will be surprised! Well worth the jorney.
Wow i forgot how good Tracy Chapman is. I'm sure I know this song sang by someone else. But she is giving it a good go. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Bisscute keep bringing us your reactions. Can you please do Gary Moore Parsian Walkways
Unfortunately she doesn’t record or perform much these days. She has stepped back from music and spends her time campaigning for a lot charities and causes close to her heart.
Please react to Turkish Rock Legend Erkin Koray Tracks, he meet and work in the time with John Lennon I recommend you Krallar TRT (video from 1974) Mesafeler (Audio with English Subtitels, you can see leefs on front cover from 1973) Gün doğmuyor (Audio with English Subtitels, you can see a black eye on front cover from 1970) Greetings from Germany from a Turkish Dude
Hi ya Biss, since you were fishing for bands to do reaction on I thought I would give you a few ideas and let the Subscribers give their opinion to you. 1) Primus, but be warned their videos tend to be a little odd , 2) Helmet, 3) Static-X that should be enough to get a reaction from you followers. 🙂
