Another Joan Arnatrading album and it's just as good as any of her other albums and this lady has a few. Since 1972 she has been captivating me and this song ranks up there with her best, the lyrics are so good "The problem with problems is they take up so much time" nobody in music has said it better. In her late 60's, Joan is like vintage wine, she just keeps getting better with age. I can't wait for the next one. WOW!
Tim Pearson LUCKY YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE LUCKY, YOU'RE LUCKY!!! :D :D :D Hug from Sissel Jahnsen p.s. I never saw her, LIVE. But she's young&strong, still cos she has taken care of herself, so we will have her, for a long time, luckily!! I wish really I can see her one day...
I had to become over 55 to hear her concert on 3sat today, to get to know her. What an exceptional artist, what a musical genius? How could she keep herself hidden from me for all these decades? Wow, I am still speechless. Ordered several of her available albums right away. Her earlier works sound brighter, more youthful than in today's concert, which she had given at the Asylum Chapel in London in 2021. I like her matured voice even better. More from you in the future please...exceptional artist!
I saw JA play her new CD and lots more at The City Winery in Chicago about two weeks ago. This in an incredible CD. For whatever reason, I hadn't seen Joan in over 10 years. I just wanted to hug her the whole show. I will never miss her again when she comes to Chi-town. She played 6 nights, and I was fortunate enough to be there for two of the shows. Her voice is almost hypnotic, - jumping over rainbows indeed!
in a way, I'm glad she is somewhat a treasured secret. How many artists of her incredible ability will ever play a place like City winery? Those shows were a small slice of heaven on earth. When she sang "True Love" on Wednesday, I had a seat about five feet away from her. Something inside of me just wanted to explode every time she sang the refrain "True Love.." "No More Pain," is another Armatrading classic. I emailed Lin Bremer at XRT and told him he should play this song the day after I saw her. If it wasn't for XRT, I said I might not know about Joan. He said he isn't allowed to play her anymore - I know, "What!!!" He did tell me one of the best concerts he ever saw was JA, (Armatrading, not Airplane), I think in 1987. Lin has seen more than his fair share of super stars - so that is really saying a lot.
That is very true and I couldn't have said it better myself. Joan has a way with words that speak to the heart. Her music also happens to be the soundtrack to my first experience of falling in love, so hearing her live was really emotional for me. I hope I get the chance to see her play live again.
@@madelainenastasia9845 A friend I took desribed her well; "At first I didn't like all that raw emotion; and she is so real." A funny side note, this damsel almost cancelled on me. When we sat down, she said she probably wouldn't stay for the whole show - I don't think she new any of joans material. LOL - the first song Joan sings was "I like it when were together!"... my friend probably thought it was a set up! LOL - SHE STAYED FOR THE ENTIRE SHOW AND WANTED A CD when it was over.
okay, well, Joan's only been on the world music scene for about 49 years now...yes, since 1971...Joan is VERY special and has brought us EXCEPTIONAL music over the decades...and, she has gotten even better with time...too bad more people don't know Joan and her huge contribution to music...they have and are missing out
This song is soooo you. Can't stop listening to it. so well balanced and refined. The energy in it is sublime! Love ya! 😜 Waiting for you to perform in Berlin again one day!!
Well this is not that I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows Dressed in yellow Got balloons and having big fun, fun Do you want some Tired from trying to be be strong Emotionally drained and looking for a friend In need of 29 things To make life easy, to make life easy Well this is not that I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows Dressed in yellow, got balloons and having big fun, fun Do you want some The problem with problems Is they take up too much time And too many issues Of the heart leaves me crying I'm naked on a mountain but I still don't feel free You know frustrating this universe can be Well this is not that I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows Dressed in yellow Got balloons and having big fun, fun Do you want some I like beautiful things You don't buy me diamonds, you don't bring me flowers I don't wanna feel how much I need you More than you need me, more than you need me My head in my hand No signpost at the crossroad No resolution Have we come to our dead end I'm naked on a mountain but I still don't feel free You know frustrating this universe can be I'm naked on a mountain but I still don't feel free You know frustrating this universe can be Well this is not that I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows Dressed in yellow Got balloons and having big fun, fun Do you want some Well this is not that I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows Dressed in yellow Got balloons and having big fun, fun Do you want some
What a tune! I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows!
Great song!

Joan is simply amazing. I wish she would get more recognition.

Do You Want Some!!!
Well this is not that
I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows
Dressed in yellow
Got balloons and having big fun, fun
Do you want some
Tired from trying to be be strong
Emotionally drained and looking for a friend
In need of 29 things
To make life easy, to make life easy
Well this is not that
I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows
Dressed in yellow, got balloons and having big fun, fun
Do you want some
The problem with problems
Is they take up too much time
And too many issues
Of the heart leaves me crying
I'm naked on a mountain but I still don't feel free
You know frustrating this universe can be
Well this is not that
I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows
Dressed in yellow
Got balloons and having big fun, fun
Do you want some
I like beautiful things
You don't buy me diamonds, you don't bring me flowers
I don't wanna feel how much I need you
More than you need me, more than you need me
My head in my hand
No signpost at the crossroad
No resolution
Have we come to our dead end
I'm naked on a mountain but I still don't feel free
You know frustrating this universe can be
I'm naked on a mountain but I still don't feel free
You know frustrating this universe can be
Well this is not that
I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows
Dressed in yellow
Got balloons and having big fun, fun
Do you want some
Well this is not that
I'm happy and I'm jumping over rainbows
Dressed in yellow
Got balloons and having big fun, fun
Do you want some
i thought Joan wanted to release a hardrock album :)
like tracy chapman!
Yes i agree.. Love them both.
