Hey ProfessionalWidow83! You still around?? So, I recently remembered this great song due to a death in the family AND I remembered a great lyrics video that someone had created. Back then, I remember finding this video and then being SO disappointed because it disappeared. I was so disappointed back then that I created my own version of that video (your video?) and posted it, only to find that the original had been reposted. 🤪 I JUST NOW found my old version of this video. I was using an old account that I’ve long forgotten (I have about five old accounts I’ve abandoned and can no longer remember the passwords to! I’m just weird 🙄). Anyway, I’m reposting it on this account that I now use. This song and your lyrics video still chokes me up 🥹. 🙂

@DarkMadamX837 күн бұрын
@@julia_l_257 if there is an ad, I wasn't asked or told or said to do it. I have never run ads on my videos. I had the opportunity to become a KZbin partner in like 2008ish, whatever that meant then, I didn't do it. These are very old videos, when KZbin was grassroots and the music I was presenting to KZbin had never been before. I put in hours and hours and hours into the collection I put out. There are at least 100 more floating around on an old hard drive of mine somewhere. Something that hits me as weird right now. In all of the years I gave particularly Ani DiFranco free and quality promotion, I have never been acknowledged by her. Not a hi. Or a thank you. But whatever, I wasn't putting in my time for her, it was for everyone else because the world needs to LISTEN to Mrs. DiFranco Napolitano. And I think it's time she gets her fucking due. History needs to find a light for her. I was contacted by KZbin, once, in 2008 or 9, telling me about the new partnership thing, but I never did it. I wanted to keep my content free. Up until a few days ago I noticed that all of Ani's music now has a copyright. And that struck me as strange because Ani owns her label, and has for 40..? years. And now there is a political ad on this video, liberal, because of that copyright and what they changed about it. She certainly can copyright her music, I claim no responsibility in the music. At all. It's not that ironic if you think about it. This song is about gun control as a law and the intricacies humans face daily because of the access to weaponry. There is barely any gun control in this country. If there is, I have never heard of it. We bitch about violence, and then we perpetuate it, or we are in denial, or out of control. If there is an ad here, for Kamala Harris, it's not that strange, only that Ani is the one who put it here.
@julia_l_2576 күн бұрын
@@DarkMadamX83 Oh yeah I assumed you were unaware of the ad. I really appreciate ypu and all the people who posted music on youtube that wouldnt be available to other otherwise. The artists should recognize the dedication more and realize how much it helps them indirectly. What I thought was ironic is that I really doubt Kamala Harris has our best interest in mind when it comes to gun control or our safety at all. I have no idea why anyone voted for joe biden. I guess out of fear of something worse. My boyfriend of 8 years had a gun pointed at me and threatened to kill me so it is a personal topic for me. But I appreciate other peoples opinions and the fact that you put in a lot of time to get free music to people.

All the world just stopped now. So you say, don't wanna stay together anymore. Let me take a deep breath babe. I remember feeling exactly that when my first real girlfriend suggested we split up. She meant she was dumping me of course. The whole world stopped. It took my breath away. I vaguely remember her coming up with some vague excuse for wanting to dump me - not me liking the same icecream as Charles Manson, but something like that. And when she found a new boyfriend, I thought she just hadn't really seen the real me. If only she had seen those pieces.........(Stacy, are you there?) and that is the beauty of this song. I really think this and Winter are 2 of the most beautiful songs ever written.

I am beginning to understand the confusion of the earthly pain and that is misunderstood because the earth is so shitty. The disposition is clear along with the frustration of this current Hell here on earth in our time here. Yes the world is taken over by greed and power, but only two apostles denied Jesus, Judas, who was bought out by the Sadducees, Jewish top controller's of money and their ritual beliefs of all the Jews. Jesus turned a page with the New Testament, which negated the rituals and based on love and truth built believers. Peter, another apostille, as predicted by Jesus, would deny him when the third crow crowd. Survival was what Peter's reason. Greed was Judas's. The angels that went with Satan were 1/3 of God's Angels, not all the angels. Satan lives here and is a total killer to us while his presence runS over this earth, yes; but this will be a blink as we go on. Revelations puts this world in perspective.
