"Everything comes and goes... Marked by lovers and styles of clothes..."
"Everything comes and goes... Marked by lovers and styles of clothes..." "Everything comes and goes... Marked by lovers and styles of clothes..." I luv how these lyrics start... Perhaps, it should have been included in my previous poll... anyway... Janelle Kroll propels this great (original) Joni Mitchell song "Down to You" to a different high... applying an erotic twist to this classic... I do like both versions... This is a wonderful homage to Joni... of "they paved paradise... and put up a parking lot" - "Yellow Taxi" fame (and many others)... Janelle brings a passion to this butterfly... the metamorphosis is complete for me... listening to both of them... different times... and, before the original... there could not be this version... for aren't we all different versions of ourselves to different people... I think that we are... I think that we see what we want to see (or are conditioned to see...)... Our perception is our reality... to others we may seem different... Please give it a read... maybe, compare both of them... "Everything comes and goes Marked by lovers and styles of clothes Things that you held high And told yourself were true Lost or changing as the days come down to you It’s down to you Constant stranger You’re a cold person You’re a kind person too It’s down to you It all comes down to you In the morning there are lovers in the street They look so high You brush against a stranger And you both apologize Old friends seem indifferent You must have brought that on Old bonds have broken down Love is gone Written on your spirit this sad song It’s down to you Constant stranger You’re a cold person You’re a kind person too It’s down to you It all comes down to you Chicago’s not the East Coast Tell me 'bout LA I’m caught up in the middle Tryna get away How you gonna grind You say how you gonna save I’ll make it there by New Years Lets throw a parade You helped me to it my confidante Don’t you forget it But I’m going through it my confidante you got a minute We’re too young to worry about our future for today And it's too late to talk about the past cause its 2AM Some things will never change Everything comes and goes Pleasure moves on too early And trouble leaves too slow Just when you’re thinking You’ve finally got it made Bad news comes knocking at your garden gate Knocking for you Constant stranger You’re a brute, you’re an angel You can crawl, you can fly too It’s down to you It all comes down to you Yeah you To You (x3) Yeah yeah It all comes down to you..." - Janelle Kroll - "Down To You (My Confidante)" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please give this one a listen... maybe, you've heard the original... It moves me... It all cums down to you... what are you waiting for... hmm... To leave private messages, please use my confidential mailbox at my blog: Good luck!!! |

Excellent hugs V thanks for your comments... The lyrics were special with this one... I like the changes as well... and, the beat of the song is different... Janelle puts her personal experience in the revised lyrics... referring to Chicago, East coast and LA... Subtle differences alter my listening pleasure... and, I want to see feel a sense of optimism... and ownership... whereas, in the original... it seems sad to me... hopeless... plus in the official video... she looks awesome... although, she is dressed in 3 different outfits... she could have chosen blue... just sayin'... She wears two different shades of black... with one of the black outfits she had liptsick... with the other she has none... with the third outfit, she wears a grey sweater and lipstick as well... while she is exasperated with what is happening...there is hope as she starts to smile from the middle to the end of the song... kinda reminds me of the video "The XX" made for "Islands"... very subtle changes occur throughout the song... just sayin'... have a great Wednesday!
