WORK ME LORD
As I sit and recall the years….all the years since her tragic death, I am still astounded my the steer power of this woman’s voice …the soulful and subtle way she make the slightest uttering of the words of the song sound so very,very powerful.
She was one of a kind my friends,and in all the years that have gone past there has been no-one….no not even one who could compare to her…………..since.
You are welcomed to leave your own remembrance of her here on this blog if you so wish….and frankly I hope you do.
Thank you

And Feeling Good was easy lord when Janis sang the blues…

n this world if you read the papers, Lord
You know everybody’s fighting on with each other
You got no one you can count on, baby
Not even your own brother
So if someone comes along
He gonna give you some love and affection
I’d say get it while you can, yeah
Honey, get it while you can
Hey hey, get it while you can
Don’t you turn your back on love, no no
Don’t you know when you’re loving anybody, baby?
You’re taking a gamble on a little sorrow
But then who cares, baby?
‘Cause we may not be here tomorrow, no
And if anybody should come along
He gonna give you any love and affection
I’d say get it while you can, yeah
Hey hey, get it while you can
Hey hey, get it while you can
Don’t you turn your back on love
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, get it while you can
Honey get it when you’re gonna wanna need it dear, yeah yeah
Hey hey, get it while you can
Don’t you turn your back on love
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Get it while you can
I said, “Hold on to somebody when you get a little lonely, dear”
Hey hey hold on to that man’s heart
Yeah, get it, want it, hold it, need it
Get it, want it, need it, hold it
Get it while you can
Honey get it while you can baby, yeah
Hey hey get it while you can
she was singing this song just a few month before she passed away, what a voice…I like her philosophy, to get it while you can…..love and peace
My parents house is near a resting place and a church. Growing up there, never bothered me. One evening, when I was a teen, one of my best friends, came to spend the night over my house. We were in that time when we listen heavy things, wearing those ’60 outfits…and at some point I put a tape with Janis Joplin. My friend went in the mood and she looked trough the window at the middle of the night….and suddenly she realized that we are close to that resting place. She instantly wanted to go home…I don’t know what “scared” her….But I remember that evening even now every time when I listen Janis Joplin.
