Annie Lennox - Summertime (Live)

Annie, some time ago, released a jazz album called Standard's Jazz, which I know I've mentioned before, but it doesn’t matter.
On this album, there’s a version of "Strange Fruit" that momentarily made me waver in my personal belief that NO ONE can sing Billie’s songs, especially that particular one. Because it’s HERS.

She stole her own life, and not solely due to her own fault - as @[IlConte] described in one of the most beautiful (chilling) pages ever written here - and it didn’t seem right to dare to make any comparison. To avoid hurting her more than she has already been.

So this Super Standard, which everyone has played, seemed more suitable; especially for those who don’t like Jazz.

Two piano chords, then those wonderful strings, underscored by the incredible spleen of that amazing voice possessed by the lanceolate creature of...
I can’t remember now where she was born: and if I step out of here (smartphone) to go check, I’m not sure I’ll find my way back.

The Swippo, you know.

Chelsea Hotel - Leonard Cohen

“Miss, are you waiting for someone?”, Janis smiles… no one has ever called her ‘miss’…

“I’m waiting for my friend Kris Kristofferson,” the girl replies…

“You’re lucky, miss, I am Kris Kristofferson,” Leonard says to her, smiling…
“I remembered you taller,” she laughs genuinely joyfully, Janis…

Legend has it that they don’t say anything more… they take the elevator and go up to her at 411.

A few years later, Cohen will dedicate this song to her with tones, for him, it is said unusually raw and cynical… as if he feared of seeming too romantic…

“You told me you preferred beautiful men but that for me you would make an exception”…

He, the greatest songwriter after or along with Dylan, she the greatest white Blues singer. She destroyed by anguish and frustration of not being understood and accepted. Of being ugly, awkward, with crooked legs and pimples. She feels good only on stage, when she repeats that she feels like making love to thousands of people… only to go home always alone.

A story of love and sex, as it happened in those years. Sudden and deep at the same time… two very different people who found each other… by God…
