      I loved that a young country kid listening in his dad's car fell in love this not so country song, and then as an adult country music star reaches across the aisle and says let's sing this. While the song will always stand on its own merit as a powerful and moving life story, I like how this has brought diverse musical worlds and experiences together--at least for this one night. Hoping this is the beginning of more bridging divides.

    I've loved this song since it was released. More recently, I've studied trauma and adverse childhood conditions, and I can say this song so poignantly captures the desperate plight of so many souls. Look at the way that the first half of the song seems to linger in the same locked pattern - like locked-in patterns of emotional lives. This musical repetition goes on longer than expected: when we think it ought to break into a chorus, it returns to "You got a fast car..." and holds the pattern - building a tension which makes the break, when it comes, more powerful. The chorus "I remember we were driving..." is that emotional outpour, not quite a dam burst, but a surge of desperate hope fueled by one single moment in time where everything felt right, or right enough, in which she glimpsed a fleeting vision of how life could and should be, where she felt she belonged and could be someone. "Be someone, be someone," echoes the desperation of those whose thwarted ambitions are inextricably bound in self-defeating patterns and trauma. And then the musical surge is lost and, true to the nature of emotional dissociation, we return to our pattern - "You got a fast car..." In writing the song, Tracy was surely too young to have technical knowledge of things like trauma and dissociation - and yet it's there - she knew it introspectively, and captured it instinctively as an artist in the lyrics and how they're woven with the music. The song doesn't flinch in honestly portraying that positive dreams aren't enough for so many people, individuals who hold on to their vision for a while, as reality continues to fail to meet it, and as it becomes less real to them, until that one inspiring memory of deeply-felt belonging loses its power as emotional fuel for the future, and dwindles to just a memory of a moment in one's past, though a memory still worth cherishing. The song has been beautifully breaking my heart for 35 years.

      For me it's about repeating the cycle while trying to get out of it. Her dad drank and she had to take care of him and her mama wanted more from life and is basically living the same life as her mother, her husband sees more of his friends at the bar then his own kids. 😢

    It is a sad song, but a hopeful one. She struggled, and keeps struggling, but she got out. Her future is, if not bright, then at least clear and light. She don’t need that guy and his fast car anymore, because she is in a place where she is happy, okay, and she can keep on improving herself, her life, her kids life, and all of their future.
    So it is sad, but more in a bittersweet way. And I love the song for that.

    Tracy Chapman’s voice is very beautiful and unique and nobody will ever be able to outdo her on this masterpiece. But credit where credit is due, Luke Combs did a gorgeous cover on this by keeping it very traditional. I think he honored this song and Tracy very well in his cover. I like both versions very much, and applause to both singers for both for an amazing job.

    Fast Car is a beautifully poignant song that captures the essence of hope and longing with an acoustic simplicity that is both powerful and evocative. Tracy Chapman's soulful voice and heartfelt delivery bring to life a narrative of struggle and aspiration, making it a deeply relatable and moving experience. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of the pursuit of a better life, and its melancholic yet hopeful tone resonates with listeners on a profound level. "Fast Car" is a timeless classic that showcases Chapman's extraordinary ability to convey deep emotion and tell compelling stories through her music.

    Just had to google the lyrics. When it came out so long ago, i was only hearing part of the lyrics due to the fast tempo. It is one of the greatest songs ever written.

    The original and the best. Authentic. Luke Combs is a great country twang cover but Chapmans voice just sounds real and personal to this song. Luke Combs sounds like a really good stage cover for a talent show or something. Can't beat the OG.

      I don't expect one artist's rendition to be the same as anyone else's version. Thats why they call them artists. Tracy is best but Luke has a different level of feeling to his voice that is also interesting and moving.

    A song of two strayed souls. Sought for the same meaning and the same feeling but escaped the reality in painful ways. Two people whose heart beat at the same time but of different rhythm. One who plans the future back from how beautiful it all started and one who failed to find joy no matter how far they travelled along together.

    My life is blessed today, but for many years it was a nightmare. It seemed the more I tried to make things better, the more broken they remained. The desire to “run away” thinking it will fix what’s broken (it doesn’t) is profound. 😢
