I left New Zealand mid-2003, bound for Istanbul and a new lif. After two years, a Belgian guy lured me into his world, deep in the heart of Europe. For a long time I was an in-process immigrant. One day we married. These days it's about photography, a little red wine and wandering ... and so the journey goes.

India Arie - Video
Gert came home and searched for this song
He had heard it in the car on the way home and was almost sure I would love it.
He showed me the lyrics and of course my interest was piqued. I went searching and found India, who sounds to me like a female version of Jack Johnson ... and I do like Jack.
I liked the original version better, but the acoustic version sounds nice too. This song is like way old though, I'm thinking ninties here. But it's a good song, can last forever.
Listening to Jack as you read it ... spooky stuff. I saw him in concert before leaving NZ, the night the camshaft finally dropped off my beloved stationwagon.
Are you trying to fit my musical style?
ReplyDeleteYou like?
ReplyDeleteI loved it, she sounds like a female Jack Johnson to me :)
Liked the lyrics then hunted down the song.

ReplyDeleteGlad you like her too ... and the lyrics are delightful.
ReplyDeleteWoo I was listening to Jack when I read this post! I should make you a mix CD -- you must be due for one and I can feel another one coming on.
ReplyDeleteA mix cd sounds like a very good idea Matthew :)
