      @Starlight_Silver ปีที่แล้ว

      That touched me too, especially since I’ve been operating a witchcraft website for two decades. Things are getting scary now though. Most days, I feel like hiding my identity until this White Christian Nationalist bullsh*t ends. Trumpsters and Q-Anoners are nuts. They literally want Democrats dead. They can’t see that they’ve been brainwashed into a dangerous cult. Despite the lies they’re being told, Democrats aren’t Socialists, pedos, lizard people, or any of that crap. We are just regular people who want the government to use our tax money to provide resources and benefits to Americans (and yes, immigrants too.) There’s enough to go around if we tax the wealthy. Stop being so selfish, Republicans. And stop HATING everyone who isn’t a white, Christian American. You guys really suck ass right now.
      Btw, I adore this song. I cry every single time. Hard to believe, but the lyrics are even better than the original, except the ending of the original… that’s better. 🩷
      “I'll fly a starship
      Across the Universe divide
      And when I reach the other side
      I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
      Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
      Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
      But I will remain
      And I'll come back again, and again
      And again and again and again and again
      And again”

    I was a Highwoman
    And a mother from my youth
    For my children I did what I had to do
    My family left Honduras when they killed the Sandinistas
    We followed a coyote through the dust of Mexico
    Every one of them except for me survived
    And I am still alive
    I was a healer
    I was gifted as a girl
    I laid hands upon the world
    Someone saw me sleeping naked in the noon sun
    I heard "witchcraft" in the whispers and I knew my time had come
    The bastards hung me at the Salem gallows hill
    But I am living still
    I was a freedom rider
    When we thought the South had won
    Virginia in the spring of '61
    I sat down on the Greyhound that was bound for Mississippi
    My mother asked me if that ride was worth my life
    And when the shots rang out I never heard the sound
    But I am still around
    And I'll take that ride again
    And again
    And again
    And again
    And again
    I was a preacher
    My heart broke for all the world
    But teaching was unrighteous for a girl
    In the summer I was baptized in the mighty Colorado
    In the winter I heard the hounds and I knew I had been found
    And in my Savior's name, I laid my weapons down
    But I am still around
    We are The Highwomen
    Singing stories still untold
    We carry the sons you can only hold
    We are the daughters of the silent generations
    You sent our hearts to die alone in foreign nations
    It may return to us as tiny drops of rain
    But we will still remain
    And we'll come back again and again and again
    And again and again
    We'll come back again and again and again
    And again and again

    I've had a kind of awakening this day.

It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, and in the last hour I've learned about Jimmy Webb and history of the song and the different people who have covered it. These lyrics are even more evocative than Jimmy Web's original, but most exciting of all, I have discovered that I love The Highwomen's voices and I had no idea I liked Country & Western!

    It’s funny the TH-cam rabbit hole you end up going down to find greatness, and this is phenomenal! The story each singer tells is outstanding, the voices are beautiful, and the simple background allows for the singers to shine. I had never even heard of any of these women, making the discovery that much greater. Hell, when it listed Brandi Carlisle as one of the singers, I was surprised to not see the woman from The GoGo’s. I continued down the rabbit hole to find The Highwaymen (which I had never heard either, though at least I was familiar with those singers’ music) and I like this version better. Thanks to The White Stripes “Ball and Biscuit” which 10 songs later brought me here!

      Indeed he is. He kind of has that JJ Cale style where he sits back in the melody and really works it. You have to listen for it to notice it because it's not in your face guitar playing.

    absolute magic. I'll echo what another commenter said - I don't usually like rewritten lyrics but this version of an absolute classic song is every bit as good, every bit as powerful and every bit as moving as the original. I'd love to see you guys perform live. wow. Just exceptional.

    • @vallipherson6453
      @vallipherson6453 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree. I also don't usually like covers of the songs which have been soundtracks of especially significant times in my life. Those covers often feel like listening to the originals on badly scratched vinyl. But not The Highwomen's version of The Chain. I listened to it with pleasure-no scratched dissonance at all!

      No that’s where you’re wrong, Cash flying a starship in space in search for other signs of life or another place to call home is as masculine as it gets. Especially since space travel and exploration are becoming more and more of a trend. The possibility of man looking to colonize another planet and find another alternative place to settle in is an amazing concept and one I look forward to witnessing if possible. This current song is just a reiteration of the original one, mostly for female empowerment. Nothing really special about it as far as I can say with all due respect.
