Lyrics
When I stand back I see a little clearer now
When I’m not staring right at a pixelated picture
When I shut it out it still hurts the same somehow
And I’m standing right where I said I would never be
I can’t pin it
I can’t pin it down
I can’t pin it
But I think we’ve been here once before
I think we’ve been here once before
When you looked at me
Were my defenses drawn?
Was I cutting through the floor
I was standing on?
This cold blooded pride in me
Won't go down quietly
And I’m standing right where I said I could never be
I can’t pin it
I can’t pin it down
I can’t pin it
But I think we’ve been here once before
Yeah I can’t pin it
I can’t pin it down
I can’t pin it
But I think we’ve been here once before
I think we’ve been here once before
When I look into your eyes
There’s nowhere to hide, no edge to hold
Are we so willing to compromise
Every ounce of freedom for some control?
Time and time again, the colors start to blend
And our fury can’t remember its own reason
Maybe it’s time that I take a good a look around
At what we have learned to live with
And what we can’t live without
The pain that we hold so dear
Looks so small and vein from here
When we’re standing right where we said we would never be
I can’t pin it
I can’t pin it down
I can’t pin it
But I think we’ve been here once before
Yeah I’ll admit it
I’ll admit it now
I’ll admit it
I think we’ve been here once before
I think we’ve been here once before
One too many times before
I think we've been here once before
I think we've been here once before
I think we’ve been here once before

25 years old and already has a style entirely her own. And the skill of playing finger-style with complex chords and syncopated rhythms while singing... Can't get over how good she is, and can scarcely imagine where she'll take it 10 years from now! -Chris Rockett
@Ian Ray silly, really
@Ian Ray Just because she's tuned down to C doesn't mean she's playing Neon, dude. She's leaning more toward Joni Mitchell than anything Mayer-related.
It’s a trio, the guitarist (or one of them, no bass here, as she’s straddling tasks) is singing. The idea of a guitar trio with the guitarist singing long predates John Mayer. Kind of a glib parallel. It is true though that Mayer is a huge fan of hers
@@markcollins1497 This is what I agree with.
@Ian Ray Still miffed that nobody thinks she sounds like John Mayer Trio, eh? What an odd hill to cry and die on. Waaaaaaaahhh.
Finally something new, fresh air. Thanx to Rhett Shull who made me aware of this young woman.
Madison Cunningham is a genius. How on earth does she sing and play so masterfully at the same time?!
why on earth such an outrageously talented artist like madison got so little subscribers??? her guitar playing skills combined with absolutely precise voice control is just perfect... mad respects for this girl...
Just incredible. John Mayer sent me here, and of course I listened . My new inspiration right here. Mahalo
If you’re seeing this, your taste in music is GOD TEIR
But your spelling is POOP TIER
Its just one of those truly perfect songs. Not a single note out of place. The dynamics and groove are spot on. One of those tunes that other artists will say "Damn I wish I wrote that!"
cripes man that song grooves, funks and rocks.
Tom Bukovac & Gordon Mote sent me over here. Glad they did.
Same here man! Should have known Gordon wouldn't lead us astray
Same here! Crazy good stuff. As a bass player I love all of the low end in this tune.
@@eharman641 Yep! Gonna have to get home and see which one of my guitars I can manhandle down to standard C tuning
Yup me too.. We'll worth it
YUP. 100%. BOOM: th-cam.com/video/wieF3hEnOdQ/w-d-xo.html
She has one of those Greek or Roman goddess faces; the kind you see on ancient coins. Beautiful and talented. Amazing.
Joni Mitchell melodies, lyrics and phrasing plus John Scofield delicious dissonant chords. Perfect blend of great influences. Fantastic new artist.
Couldn't agree more !th-cam.com/video/788ag7mGBKM/w-d-xo.html
Definitely hear some Joni influence and a little Sco with the dirty wet tone and dissonance and also a little Bill Frisell with his use of beautiful dissonance via polychords.
@@rhmayer1 I don't know. I don't get nearly as much Joni as people say. I hear more groove than Joni, less folk. Also, some of her other tunes scream Beatles.
@@Matarman it's the melodies, the phrasing and the notes, not the style.
@@Matarman Yes, more groove than Joni. But I guess the Joni I hear is in the very free vocal range - very fluid, and the somewhat whimsical, personal lyrics. I mean, she's NOT Joni, of course. But I just hear an influence. Qualities of her voice, texture, some of the advanced harmonic sense of contrast with the music. Listen how at the beginning, after establishing that groove with that riff, she then comes in with the vocals - with the flat 7! It's a gorgeous dissonance - an interesting, very uncommon pitch, contrasting with the riff, to start with. (But perfect for the song. Captivating.) That kind of adventurous harmonic sense is kinda Joni-ish. But more Joni-ish is what follows after that first vocal note, just the fluidity - rhythmically over the groove, floating around and intertwining with that groove riff. It just has that Joni sense of freedom and interesting non-standard sense of harmony in playful contrast with the music/riff.
Madison is amazing and holy Christ that drummer!
Whats his name? I gotta know
@@whiteyfisk9769 the great Abe Rounds-- check out his stuff with Blake Mills and Meshell Ndegeocello!
@@eficer04 will do, thanks!
@@whiteyfisk9769 Also with Madison and Andrew Bird all on stage together.
I saw Madison open for Punch Brothers in 2018 at Pisgah Brewing in Black Mountain NC. She was amazing! I'm just now getting back into her stuff and catching up and wow, I've missed some really awesome music.
Her counterlines on her artificially tuned down Jazz Master are funky AF, let alone her ability to sing like an angel all while laying down these bass lines. (Ask this professional musician how hard that is to do.) It's bloody amazing.
Unbelievable!
She got more going on than I've ever had in my wildest dreams. It's so fresh and unexpected, I'm 65 and i never expected to be surprised by anything again, then i came across this.
Her "break down" tutorial if this song is well worth watching to give you a greater appreciation if what's actually happening in this song.
That riff is like warm honey straight off the comb.
Damn, when I was listening to this song on Spotify, I did not expect that the singer would be doing that guitar riff and the singing at the same time.
Wow! Such a groovy song, already a classic in my mind.. Terrific live rendition, bravo! Rhett Shull wasn't lying 🤠
i figured an MF DOOM fan would like this kinda music :)
@@aifrmedia Oh, a Connoisseur 😋
Josh Scott can make better recommendations than Rhett Shull could make in his wildest dreams.
Fantastic. At first I was like, where’s the bassist, that line sounds killer...then I realized Madison is a badass.
I first heard her on the SiriusXM Beatles station (my go to) singing "In My Life". Having been smitten, I sought out more...I am now completely in love and awe!
Her sense of timing is amazing!!! Vocal and guitar both massively syncopated, but in different ways at the same time, and both straight up funky AF!!
God the music industry is so messed up. This is a #1 all day!!!
hate to be negative, but this is pretty much the sounds of 10 years ago \: alabama shakes etc'.
trap is not better, it's just new.
that's what makes tame impala more popular. it just sounds more fresh.
she is indeed skilled, however.
We (the like minded people) who appreciate craft, creativity and talent are turning away from the machine driven garbage that is being spewed out of late, and will always support artists like this.
Ha! I pinned it down! Finally!! Edie Brickell. THAT's who she sounds like . . . Took me a while.
finally i found some music that just blows me away with creativity, skill, and style. Thank you madison cunningham
Has to be one of the purest singing voices I've ever heard. So effortless on top of the groove
NEW SUB WOW!!!!! I’m 68 years old and just discovered Madison at 3:45am!!! I am blown away (and, yes) I am a Joni Mitchell fan. But, Madison is all her own...what a genius artist talent 👍👍👍👍
Rhett sent me here. What a magic performance 🙌
She is so talented - lyrics, melodies, vocals! Our generation has our very own Joni Mitchell ♥️
Me too!
I might not found you without Rhett, he is right! What a great tune. I don't know how you keep all that going in your mind. I'm a fan!
이 노래는 정말로 마음을 울리는데, 영상까지 함께하니 더욱 감동적이에요. 감정을 표현하는 노래와 그에 어울리는 영상이 정말로 아름다웠습니다. 눈물이 나도록 감동을 받았고, 여운이 길게 남을 것 같아요. 멋진 영상과 좋은 노래 항상 잘 듣고 잘 보고 있어요 감사합니다!!
......speechless , amazing, other superlatives.....please carry on!
Singing while playing the riff, holy crap you nailed it....pretty awesome tune there young lady !!!!!!!!
Voice like Harriet Wheeler from the Sundays ....what a great find ....beautiful job Madison! ...not to mention the stellar guitar playing..
Guitar sounds so SICK! Great musicians 🫶
The world needs more gals just like this.
Love this. This stripped down version makes me appreciate 1. the strength of the song itself. 2. The musicality is these musicians. 3. the full arrangement, which manages to only enhance, and not obscure, the fabulous bones of this tune.
truly the real package with rhythm so good you don't even miss the bassist.
😠
@@DuxJerome deep.
0:12 oooh so good!
It's SO refreshing to see an artist like Madison Cunningham. So creative, so careful, so classy. Love this song. Thanks for inspiring me Madison!
Greatest Talent of this Moment
I must've been here once before because this sounds like music to my ears.
Very happy to discover this gem of a musician.
My old Teisco guitar all of a sudden have gained new life - flatwounds and all! Thank you so much Madison, many blessing to you :-)
Drop C is exquisite
A musician’s musician
This girl's hands look slower than Mr.Slowhand himself, it is amazing.
flonsdg what do u mean her hands are slow?
@@paulchavez3039 I don't mean they're slow, I mean they look slow, like she is barely moving them. It seems so effortless.
flonsdg ah I see yeah totally that muscle memory is so keyed in she’s amazing
The drums sound Amazing!!
Steve Gadd...
@@michaelarnold838 Abe Rounds

This is insanely good! The right amount of groove and that bridge where it gets heavy got me.

Goddess! Unbelievable talent and songwriting prowess.
thanks John Mayer!
This song needs a solo. Maybe a JM's one
You are amazing!
Love these rich, interesting lyrics.
Love this! Who says music creativity is dead?
This is amazing! Madison is my fav artist to discover this year! This song is absolutely brilliant. That voice! And the awesome guitar playing at the same time. What an incredible talent!
Excellent job! Your style sometimes reminds me of Joni Mitchell.
PlainDave No comparison tn Madison
Ya it's coz their voice is almost the same! 🙃 Like if you did a venn diagram there'd be lots of crossover 🤖
I was thinking the same. She is a talented young lady.
She definitely reminds me if Joni Mitchell. More music for me to love.
NO OPEN TUNINGS it’s not joni
Beautiful and genius song 🙏🏼
Love the swing!
Indeed.
I love this song so much. The drummer DAMNNNNNN

This has been my absolute favorite for a few years now. This is some SERIOUS shit.
Phenomenal stuff so natural nothing fake here,
Madison is the real deal....pretty hard to ignore pure talent like this. Wow. Great band too!
Crow meets Joni meets Neil.. By 2021 this Lady will be All Over The Map...
Shades of Joni Mitchell. Beautiful.
That voice with that guitar sound. mmmm
Absolutely amazing guitar work. I am really getting into her music. Part of the regular crew on Live from here where many of America's amazing young musicians are producing wonderful music.
Warm AF. Very classy. Beautiful. Thnx for that.
You are such a rare breed where you live playing is even more mind blowing than your studio tracks! Incredible! Pin it down, john Wayne, last boat to freedom, in my life... ALL OF THEM!!
I've been having fun playing along with this song for the last hour. I love it.
Amazing playing from everyone. Vocally she reminds me of a more on-pitch Suzanne Vega.
Just discovered this girl. Excellent stuff!
Amazing music, sound, voice, melody, rythm, and this is unique
This is just fabulous. I love everything about it!
Came here after Michael Palmisano's reaction video. Awesome !!!
Great voice! very delicate.
This is my first day here. Man, I picked the very right day :) So, so, so good!
You are really great Madison.
That's outrageous.
Beautiful! Knocked it out of the park with this one! Excellent song and performance!
Yow... incredible bassist, incredible vocals. And, the song is so relevant to our times. Thank you!
Madison, love your style, lyrics. You have that Joni Mitchell'esqness about you and your own style that keeps me coming back for more. Bravo!❤👏👏👏👏👏👏

Wow. I love this arrangement! Beautiful song!
