    During my elementary days, me and my friends were singing this with song book on hand. We were discussing about the lyrics, young and navie, we didn't know what getting laid meant. Finally we knew. Ha ha ha. Those were the good old days. I'm now a proud grandfather of 2 boys five and one.

    A primeira vez que ouvi está cancão do Elton John em 1974, eu era um menino de calça curta que jogava pelada com os amigos na rua em que eu morava, em Recife. Até hoje, passados já quarenta anos, ainda me emociono quando a escuto. Linda!

      De fato, música belíssima e um estilo que me lembra os bons e incomparáveis anos 70. Só agora vim a saber que essa canção fala da vida de uma prostituta, mas nem por isso deixou de ser uma bela canção...

    • @josie1776
      @josie1776 2 года назад +1

      @@ricardo.felippe , continua sendo bela porque não é falada de forma vulgar ou esdrúxula, mas de forma reflexiva.
      O personagem principal na letra está fazendo uma reflexão sobre a complexidade de nuances na vida daquela mulher, imaginando seu dia-a-dia e como tudo para ela sucede-se de forma efêmera e vazia.
      Tempos em que mesmo o lado mais controverso do ser humano podia ser abordado de maneira poética e sofisticada.
      Um artista de hoje, ao falar sobre o tema, apela para o humor, soando até infantil, na incapacidade de extrair da questão uma abordagem mais rica em profundidade e na variedade de circunstâncias que a envolvem.

    To all you wondering what's meant by "Sweet Painted Lady" ...it's a reference to the "ladies of the evening" and the heavy makeup typically worn.

    Tenho 51, quando 16 e dançava nos bailinhos do meu bairro, adorava Elton John mas não fazia ideia que ele fosse gay, achava que as musicas que ele fazia eram para mulheres, não deixei de gostar dele ou de suas musicas, apenas fiquei surpreso pela descoberta.

    I remember this song was banned in Philippines radio during its popularity in the 70s due to its lyrics meaning, as well as Hey Jude lines "so let it out and let it in"

    • @JohnDavis-nx8hh
      @JohnDavis-nx8hh 4 года назад

      hey jude was in reference to shooting heroin. When you LET IT OUT AND LET IT IN, you are, in drug/heroin jargon BOOTING, which means moving the needle plunger out to make sure you get blood from a vein, then pushing it back in. Believe me. I lived the life in the south Bronx..

    This song is so close to going on liberty in the Med for me, at the young age of 19, 1972-73.. Europe at that time had a completely different concept of prostitution.. It would be a meeting, drinks, dancing, really having a great time.. Then back to the lady's apt. The exchange of money was so un-noticed... All the ladies were older than me, quite beautiful and I would miss them when we would go back to sea... Nothing like what prostitution is like here.. Beautiful memories..

    "Sweet Painted Lady - Elton John w/ Lyrics"
    I'm back on dry land once again
    Opportunity awaits me like a rat in the drain
    We're all hunting honey with money to burn
    Just a short time to show you the tricks that we've learned
    If the boys all behave themselves here
    Well there's pretty young ladies and beer in the rear
    You won't need a gutter to sleep in tonight
    Oh, the prices I charge here will see you alright
    So she lays down beside me again
    My sweet painted lady, the one with no name
    Many have used her and many still do
    There's a place in the world for a woman like you
    Oh, sweet painted lady
    Seems it's always been the same
    Getting paid for being laid
    Guess that's the name of the game
    Oh, sweet painted lady
    Seems it's always been the same
    Getting paid for being laid
    Guess that's the name of the game
    Oh, sweet painted lady
    Seems it's always been the same
    Getting paid for being laid
    Guess that's the name of the game, oh
    Forget us we'll have gone very soon
    Just forget we ever slept in your rooms
    And we'll leave the smell of the sea in your beds
    Where love's just a job and nothing is said
    So she lays down beside me again
    My sweet painted lady, the one with no name
    Many have used her and many still do
    There's a place in the world for a woman like you
    Oh, sweet painted lady
    Seems it's always been the same
    Getting paid for being laid
    Guess that's the name of the game
    Oh, sweet painted lady
    Seems it's always been the same
    Getting paid for being laid
    Guess that's the name of the game,

    Contrary to MadMaurice views. I think you nailed this song nicely with the photos you choose. I think we all can see different pictures of an artists original interpretation.I believe a "sweet painted lady" sometimes likes to see herself, as many photos you use, as the fisherman or sailor may as well.I believe you know what the song is about.VERY NICE JOB.
