I needed something to remind me of the presence of beauty and love, and it was this song that did this for me. This was a source of comfort to me during one of my darkest times, after my fiancée broke up with me. Somehow it finds the perfect balance between happy and sad, serious and silly, mystery and clarity, major and minor - and all this in a scant 2 1/2 minutes. But the second verse, all about comfort and reassurance and giving, is about as good as it gets to describing what a perfect partner might be like:Īnd a thousand smiles she gives to me, freeīut it's really the music that gets me every time - I just find the melody, the chord pattern, the playing, the arrangement, even the glockenspiel, altogether surpassingly beautiful, beyond any other rock song. The words of the first verse are a bit daft, though perhaps because they are painting a picture of the way the girl he is describing behaves, it doesn't matter if they are a bit nonsensical - he is jotting down a few things he likes about her. I'm not sure why, and perhaps that is just as well, as some things need not be explained nor understood in order to be acknowledged or accepted. The song I feel the strongest connection to, the one that moves me the most, the one that was there for me when I needed it the most, is "Little Wing" by Jimi Hendrix. Give them all my toys that dear Santa gaveĪnd give him the pennies in my little bank The man who runs the farm where your playmate now livesįor winter time has come and their work is all done I'm only seven now but it's just like you said They soon were at their work and he heard his Daddy say He knew they were strangers that come from the town He stopped to watch a truck that was parking next doorĪs the man swiftly walked to the cottage door In his little play house down by the gate

He was just a little farm lad so busy at play Maybe its because the story is one that has happened to me, to many of us. The guitar really does weep here as well as any other example one might cite. Truthfully, it scared the hell out of me for 19 years, then I quit drinking so much. I've always found this one to be powerful too. Also, on an emotional level, I find the musical structure of this song to be almost perfect. Profound lyrics, the meaning of which I find more affecting with each passing year. I think I'll write a song and call it, "A 66 year old man ain't suppose to cry". IMO Mazera sings it better than Mary, but it is only available to listen to on Spotify. Then comes the haunting, and then, when I really started analyzing the lyrics of Mary Gauthier, the melody, the flow and the singing ability of Audrey Mazera to emphasize the impact of sadness, then came the tears. It is a very touching story if you look at the lyrics. The lyrics led me to the true story behind it. The more I played the melody, the more interest in the lyrics. Nothing too special, but something about the simple melody stuck and a couple days later I wanted to play it. This started about a month ago when I heard for first time "Karla Faye". Alright you get the picture? Well, I just had a song tear me up. Then later "Help me make it thru the Night". I remember the song "My Girl" when I had my first girlfriend. Maybe you want to learn to play it, sing it, or rewrite it, or could be a hundred different ways that this song affects you. If you are a music freak like me, you have come across many songs that influence you in some way.
