SVE contacted me a few months back to see if I'd like to come up with some ideas for "Taking Chances", her first single off the new record. When I first heard the song the lyrics immediately made me think about the opening sequence to the great Agnes Varda film "Cleo from 5 to 7", one of my favorites. I usually mull over ideas for days or weeks before coming up with anything decent to share with an artist, but this one just came out immediately. I sent a sketch of the idea onto Sharon and Zeke Hutchins, her manager, then I didn't hear back from them for over a week, at which point I thought, well, damn, they must hate the idea, I blew it! But soon Zeke contacted me and asked if Sharon had sent me the album artwork. I said, no, I haven't even heard anything else off the album yet, let alone seen anything from it. Sharon then texted me pretty much the same question, "Did Zeke send you the album before you wrote this?" Nope. I didn't understand what the big deal was. Finally they sent me a photograph that's a big component of the album artwork, it's this beautiful aged picture of Agnes Varda standing in front of a bazillion reels of 16mm film. This image of one of my filmmaking heroes has been hanging on Sharon's wall wherever she's lived for years and years to the point where it's all tattered and weather-worn. I like to think that Ms. Varda is standing in front of a bunch of reels from Cleo from 5 to 7, but who knows. It's just one of the strangest coincidences, and it made us all feel like the video had to be made. So now I can safely say the video is inspired by two incredible women: Sharon, for her musical inspiration, and Agnes Varda, whose inspiration on the both of us is quite apparent.

One of the best voices out there right now.
Agreed!!!!!!
Ryan Koch That's so cool! She's such a sweetie too. Met her a couple weeks ago
Ryan Koch I'm super glad she made it. She really deserves it. Did you see her on Letterman last night?
are you joking? ok she is mm good in her own style but come on she is not near to be one of the best voices out there she only is ok
yes everybody have different opinion but she is not one of the best voices ok man it is just such a foolishness
So proud of one of my former students! Great song.
I think I am in love with Sharon van Etten.
+Terrence Holmes I was her first Terrence....ha ha, no seriously I saw her last year live, what a great intimate concert, believe me she's better in the flesh ( inside & outside ) & she seems like a really cool chick !
+Beeboy69 So you're claiming you banged her? Classic internet user.
+Rinzler .exe Sorry dude, I meant to say saw instead of was....my bad, and it all in jest seeing her first ;=)
Beeboy69 "better in the flesh (inside and out)" is the bad bit.
+Rinzler .exe Better in the flesh meaning seeing her live & inside out meaning very attractive & inside seems like a nice person...if you saw her live I think you'll know what I'm trying to say !
I wanted to but never sent this video to someone very important in my life. It came up recommended to me yesterday and memories flooded me. Too late to send it after all this time. Went on with my day. I woke up to an email this morning like a response to a call I never actually made. Sometimes connections run deeper than they appear.
Lyrics:
Turn on the charm
Call to response now.
Sitting on the porch, looking for a way out
Touched on me deep
That's why I'm still here.
Why do we think that we've no plight?
Even I've taken my chances
Even I've taken my chances
On you and I know
In the dark, on the way out
It's even in old songs.
It's the combination that takes emotions.
Why don't we go now?
No need to think on our own now about it.
Even I've taken my chances
Even I've taken my chances
On you.
When you love, all of you
They know, all of you,
Be alone and take, and you break
For whose sake?
About to leave, about to leave
Even I've taken my chances
Even I've taken my chances
On you.
How fortunate that one of Brooklyn's finest poets is a popular singer, so that she may reach more people. If you were wondering about poetry, this is it.
Her stares are piercing through my soul
She's in the new season of Twin Peaks! Her voice is perfect for a Black Lodge scene or the Roadhouse.
In what episode?
bullshit
Bernardo Andriani check the confirmed cast list, Google it or something
Jackpot!
you are a wizard !!!!
this record is a real grower. took me 3 listens and then i fell in love.
100% agreed. Same story for me. Listened to it once when it came out and it didn't grab me. Came back to it a couple of months later and now I can't stop.
The transitions and line breaks make this song for me. How between one chorus we may get a music break, another it might break right into the next lines, and usually depending on the emotion and pace of the lines it could change. And the “Remember?” after “Even I’ve taken my chances on you” was perfect, I rewound it just 5 seconds to hear that break multiple times, it was really well done. I love when the rhythm isn’t repeated and one line can sound like it’s in connection with the first it starts so soon after, or sometimes there’s instrumentals. I don’t like when music repeats the same rhythms, and that’s something SVE did a wonderful job on in this song, really mixing it up.
I love the instrumentation and composition of this song. The intro is unlike anything Sharon Van Etten's done before, yet it feels like a natural progression from Tramp. And Sharon Van Etten's singing and lyrics are as mellifluous and intriguing as ever. (Hopefully early) May can't come soon enough.

It's even enough sounds
It's the combination that takes emotions
Why don't we go now?
No need to think on our own now about it
Even I've taken my chances
Even I've taken my chances on you
When you love all of you, they know all of you
Be alone and take, and you break for your sake
About to leave, about to leave

Ur just saying what she is saying????
es que ... la amo... simplemente.... amo a Sharon.... su voz remueva toda mi alma.... eres un ángel cantando tesoro...
I'm obsessed with this woman!
I spent half of my 2014 listening to this tune. I didn't regret any minute of it.
Esta mujer si que hace buena musica su ritmo es otra cosa hay un sentimiento
mellow voices like this is just what we need
Sharon, you came to my house in Houston after playing at the Proletariat many years ago. It was absolutely wonderful. I'm glad to see and hear your music online. You are fantastic!
One of the best songwriters/performers in America.
Divina Sharon!!!!....que delicia de música.
Best singer I have found in a long time!! All because of that "Blue Skies" commercial.
Great sound....heard this on 97.1 WSUM (college radio) yesterday.
She was literally the main part of the OA that had my heart pumping; I was like, "I know that girl from somewhere, then I was like; I do know here!" When she started singing; it made that boring ass story into something for a brief moment. But let me stop playing, I'm going to buy all her music. I got "We Are Fine" because I heard it play on Rectify, but I need to actually get it now.
I Love her Voice ;)
Grew up with most places had those🗝️s❤️for the doors they really do work One Key🗝️fits all door's lol Thank You Sharon Van Etten Love ❤
I highly recommend seeing her live if you get the chance. She rocks out in person.
The progression sounds awesome.
No one brought me here...I have just music passion and wish to find a good song. I found a clear diamond and I thank only Music for that )
I'm so in love with this sooong!
I remember when this video came out. I watched this video at least ten times a day. Such a beautiful song and so much soul was thrown into the camera.
Next to the music her videos are also always first class!
just saw her live and they played this song. it was spot on and she gave an amazing performance and show.
Great song... Her voice is just the right combination of gritty and smooth..
I love love love her!
So far this is only the 2nd song I have listened to from her and I can already tell she is the one. Can't wait to click the 3rd.
There is a reason Bon Iver loves and respects SVE. An artist's artist.
Lovely! she deserves every success x
She is just fantastic.
Soulful, wow
This is one of my all-time favorite songs/videos.... "about to leave.... about to leave......"
First time I listen to this it missed me... This was the second time and it got me good.
"Everytime The Sun Comes Up I'm In Trouble" got me on the first listen... on maybe the 4th note.

The opening scene of Cléo From 5 to 7 (1961) by Agnès Varda brought me here.

those eyes have me hypnotized
Love it, can't wait for the album.
I listened to the album like 5 times. The first four times were boring and i almost gave up on it, it finally hit me the fifth time and I was like, damn this has some catchy songs.
I just discovered this singer and I think she's great, even I don't exactly understand her point of view about love :)
Am I dreaming? I've been sleeping so much on this, holy shit.
love it
Gorgeous!!!!
I didn't knew that beauty could be good looking.
wut?
what the fuck did you even just say?
how can beauty be anything other than good looking xD?
I think you meant u didn't know could be so good sounding* :D
Johnny Zakka I think it's a play on beautiful art usually not being made by beautiful people.
Gargling Marbles

How sad, that show sucks. Could "the movements" be any more cringe worthy?
No no no, you brought yourself here!
@@PPF24 you clearly didn't understand the show then
@@alquinn8576 a bowel movement is better than that garbage. Too bad an artist like this is featured in that monstrosity.
good at what she does, I like her style, she mastered the notes of her songs to have the perfect balance. thx to walking dead & serpents
