    LYRICS
    You took your coat off, stood in the rain
    You're always crazy like that
    And I watched from my window
    Always felt I was outside looking in on you
    You're always the mysterious one with
    Dark eyes and careless hair
    You were fashionably sensitive
    But too cool to care
    You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
    Besides some comment on the weather
    Well in case you failed to notice
    In case you failed to see
    This is my heart bleeding before you
    This is me down on my knees, and
    These foolish games are tearing me apart
    And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
    You're breaking my heart
    You're always brilliant in the morning
    Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee
    Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you
    You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
    As I clumsily strummed my guitar
    You'd teach me of honest things
    Things that were daring, things that were clean
    Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
    I hid my soiled hands behind my back
    Somewhere along the line, I must have gone off track with you
    Excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else
    Somebody who gave a damn
    Somebody more like myself
    These foolish games are tearing me
    You're tearing me, you're tearing me apart
    And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
    You're breaking my heart
    And you took your coat off, stood in the rain
    You're always crazy like that

    This song stands the test of time! I grew up in a broken home, now at 32 semi-healed, i can now remove this song from a parent playing it on repeat, on *those* type of days from childhood and look at it objectively. Honestly, WOW, just wow... I've never felt more connected to my now passed away parent.

    Funny that when you're a kid, you never imagine yourself getting old, or that the world as you know it will change drastically. All unimaginable things when we're young and careless. Fast forward 25 years and you lost touch with your childhood friends, working an average job, often reminiscing of the past. God damn did we ever take these times for granted. It's almost humbling in a weird twisted way. What a song. What an era. What a time that was. Amazing. Cheers to anyone that knows what I'm sayin'.

    I was in the Army when this video first came out. I was in the barracks with my platoon when the video started to play on tv. Forty-five seconds in, you couldn't hear a pin drop. All 25 of us went quiet raptured on a journey with this lovely woman and her enchanting voice. Then, rage against the machine came on. We never spoke of it. We did start talking about football, drinking, and talking 💩. So it was in the infantry.

She also felt compelled to shoplift food in order to survive for a while, so yes, she was indeed homeless once.

      Her mother was my first love September 1,1973 in Toronto Canada and Atz Kilcher told me His Name was Otto Carroll and Lanedra Carroll was his Sister and he Gave Me his Sister’s Hand in Marriage because I had a Draft Card for the Vietnam War. When they went home to Alaska Lanedra refused to write down her address for me telling me I had to write to her or I’ll never hear from her again and in my failed attempts to go from Western NY to Alaska to See Lanedra Christmas 1973 My Family had me put in Dr’s Care and after I heard a whisper that the girl in Alaska had a daughter and named her Jewel my family returned me to Dr’s who gave me Lithium and Electric Shock Treatments spring of 1974 and I woke up out of a Drug induced insanity August 25,1974 after I won my third Special Olympic Medal and I’m StrangerBlue in Jewel’s Song Enter from the East

If abominators in such courses were intellectualy civilized then childten woyld only be -by sentence- mad born of pure silent sin-outs. ..
      ..
      This song still can reflect the female adorance to a male but in fear of lose of sexual sensation of essences due to some arrogance performed by the adored male.
      .. Like a true story, it is an emergecy by really undergone sensations obviously.

      @Thomas Hurley That's an absolutely horrible thing to say! I'm just gonna take a wild guess that you are human and not perfect either. Those "freaks" are just trying to be comfortable enough in their own skin to make their way through this shit show called life however they can just like the rest of us. Also beauty is in the eye of the beholder so just cause the "freaks" aren't "cute chicks" for you to gawk at doesn't mean someone doesn't think they're beautiful for who they are inside and out. You are entitled to your opinion but did your mother forget to teach you that if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all? The way people treat each other so poorly and judge each other for things that are frankly none of their business anyhow is a way bigger problem in this day and age than trans people or those struggling with their gender or sexuality.

  • @markbrown3238
    @markbrown3238 Před 9 lety +20

    I was born in the early 90s and I have to say that I miss hearing songs like this one. Jewel has always been one of my favorite singers. She is a genuine artist, who writes and sings songs about GENUINE human emotion, unlike so many of those meaningless, hip-shaking songs we hear today but still call "music". One of the sad things about young people today (not to mention the generations still to come) is many of them don't even know what REAL MUSIC is all about. I've seen it in my own friends. They only want that loud, feel-good sound that makes them turn up their car stereos until the speakers burst. All they've ever heard is the hip-shaking, booty-bouncing, foot stomping nonsense they hear in clubs and on the radio. And you know what's even sadder than that? Most of the people singing those songs all sound very much alike! Honestly, it is hard to tell many of them apart when you listen to them. Where is that diversity in music we used to love so much?

    • @sultanabran1
      @sultanabran1 Před 9 lety

      all generations say that about the current generations. i was born in early 80's and i think modern music is crap. my parents said that about music i liked. i'm sure my grandparents thought the beatles were a loud racket and not music. truth be told, real music is from mozart, beethoven, strauss, vivaldi etc... i listen to them and realise anything else is just not music. however, jewel and others like her are actual modern musicians. in my opinion anyway.

    • @mitch4551777
      @mitch4551777 Před 9 lety +2

      sultanabran1 I think your right but I like all sort of music from classic to rock ,pop and rap... I think because music these days has so much money in the industry... it's all about fake artists and musician... Song are written for artists because they can sing, lip sinking at concerts, silly song with outrageous video clips that make songs popular and i tunes where 1 hit wonders can make a fortune... Critics didn't know how to rate the music from the 90's good or bad it doesn't matter because it was the last decade before the internet changed everything... Turning pop to top channel v use to play all types of music and so did many others underground, hits and lost musician now it all about the top 40 and that's every channel just about.. half the band's I listen to I can not found on i tunes

      I was born in the late '50s. This is good music for any generation. There is much more to come. You must understand at your age, (and mine), certain music stands the test of time. Hold true to the music you love. It is your life, and oh, so short. No one can be you, and you can be no one else. The most beautiful music ever made is the music from within your heart.

    The 1990s really were some of the best times for music. We had a variety of really good music from singer/songwriters like Jewel, Sarah Mclachlan, and Lisa Loeb to bands like Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and Nirvana. No matter what type of music you liked we were lucky enough to have amazing artists in every type of music. That will never happen again.

    When you are young you have the whole world ahead of you. Your dreams, hopes and expectations of a life to be are all seemingly attainable. Then weeks, months, years and eventually decades pass us by and all of a sudden we realize the dreams, hopes and expectations have not come to fruition and we are living our reality with no time to readjust or change the path in our lives like we could have done while we were young. For some life turned out amazing while many struggle with the reality of what they have built. Regrets are not worth it as those feelings are not worth the time it takes to think about them. The key is to realize you can change your life and from this moment forward set new realistic goals for what you can achieve with the time you think you have remaining. Time stands still for none! If you are watching life pass by then grab it and finish strong with what YOU want from what's remaining... good luck to all and don't finish with regrets of the things you should have done!
