    Lyrics:
    Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
    Nothing, I mean nothing, honey if it isn't free, no no
    Yeah feeling good was easy Lord, when he sang the blues
    You know feeling good was good enough for me
    Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

Now at 22, she is a free spirit like Janis was, and can do a perfect Rendition of almost all Janis’s songs.

    Janis was a class act who left far too early.
    At the peak of her very brief reign, she was unbeatable. She could sing with immense
    power ("Raise Your Hands"), or incredible vulnerability("Little Girl Blue").
    Five decades after her premature death, Janis still remains loved.

      @@angusm9419 I guess the point could be debated either way, but I know where you're coming from; Janis Joplin hailed from an era whose youth questioned or rebelled against authority / "the establishment," and with all the trimmings (drug abuse, sex, etc.); It's a great loss to the world that her life was so short because, sadly, she couldn't control her habits. And I have yet to see or hear a modern pop / rock diva who can hold a candle to Ms Joplin and her raw and immense talent.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to provide the lyrics to Bobby McGee. I used to have a pretty nice soprano voice, but now -- at 64 -- it's more of a husky alto.
      I love to sing, but I'm a shy perfectionist. I go to a karaoke place regularly with a group of young friends (in their 20s) who always encourage me to sing, but I've never been brave enough.
      I decided that this song will be my "debut" performance, but I need to practice at home before I dare go on stage.
      Sorry for the long explanation, but I wanted you to know that posting lyrics to a song can have benefits most people don't think of.

At her celebration of life tribute the DJ was instructed to play this song every 15 minutes, and all 300 of us smiled and cried, and sang as loud as we could.

Anyway, that jeep only had an AM radio. I heard that voice and within in first sentence of this song, I had to pull over to take this song and her voice in. I. Was. Hooked!
    I got home and asked my mom what this song was. This was before RUclips or any way to look up information on her. But when I could, I was heartbroken to find out she died 6 years before I was born.

      Yep and no one has ever matched Janis' performance of this song. "I'll trade all my tomorrows, for one single yesterday." Her delivery of that line is a literal WOW moment. She brought the soul right into that song and she is the only reason it is popular. I like to write my own tunes every so often, however my writing leans more towards the hard rock side of things.
      Another good writer that was amazing was Ronnie Van Zant. Dude could write the hell out of a sing. His lyrics to Free Bird were literally written in 3 to 5 minutes according to his band mates. Only the first line is the only part he didn't write because that line was a question that Allen Collins girlfriend asked him and he wrote the music for it. Ronnie left it in there and then wrote the rest around it, he almost never wrote it, believing there were too many chords to carry a melody in tune.
      Hell of a lot of good writers out there and no they do not get the credit for doing it. I am sure you know its not an easy task, but it is rewarding when the song you write flows together like every note was meant just for the words.

      @carlorachel 3 года назад +1

      @@evilcowboy , you are saying a lot, brother. And this tells me you've been down the valley and over the hills of really looking at songwriting as the art form that it is. That line from Free Bird [If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me...] is so reminiscent of the overall message hidden in John Denver's lyrics to Goodbye Again. When you have time, study those lyrics and see if you can discern that certain bittersweetness that echoes in Free Bird. The lyrics to Goodbye Again are actually a very beautiful example of high-level lyric writing. I wish John recorded this particular song in a slower (less upbeat) tempo. When it is slowed down, it becomes a powerful voice/guitar coffeehouse offering. Stay well, ec.
