Janis Ian-Society's Child (1967)

[@loralieisa]

Janis Ian was clearly gifted. To think she wrote this haunting song at age 14. A prodigy.

[@MarcoG999]

Agreed @Loralieisa M And she still is...at 70 years old.

[@davidchamberlain5425]

13 years and 259days🎶🎵👍

[@dbbdvm]

I'm Janis age. She sang these words for so MANY of us in the late 60s, having very similar life experiences like hers. We saw and experienced what She; it was all around us.

[@ModGirl-nu1xk]

Astounding, really.

[@lewisc215]

duh

[@MrSteve280]

A song where the story behind it is as fascinating as the song itself. In her own words, "she conceived the song when she was 12, wrote it at 13, published it at 14, became known at 15, and was a has-been at 16"(the age she is in the video). Radio stations and others were so successful in suppressing the song that it took almost 2 years to chart. The Smothers Brothers caught a lot of heat for letting Janis sing this (some of it from a 30 year-old Bill Cosby no less) and advertisers threatened to walk. An interesting time to be alive. And a courageous and talented woman.

Right on!!! I always loved this song. A Golden oldie in my book.

[@sheriaugustyniak]

She was 13!

Yes, she was 13 when she wrote this song and she played it in front of other campers at a summer camp that her parents ran, before it was published.

[@trinitylancer]

This was such a dreamy sounding song back in the mid Summer of 1967. Reminds me of 8:30 pm sunsets and riding bikes in the neighborhood until the street lights came on and there was always a radio playing. Never knew the implied meaning of the song back then at age 14, it didn't matter, I just loved the instrumental opening and Janis' talented voice. She sings this song with so much true emotion as if it is she who is being deprived of the fellow she feels deeply about.

[@wahigal]

Clearly, Janis Ian was wise beyond her years. Such a thoughtful, meaningful lyrics.

[@lauramarzz2220]

YOU'RE TOTALLY CORRECT ! THIS PIECE OF MUSIC WAS A "BAROQUE MUSIC" , 'CANTADA ' (NOT A FOLK SONG) A WORK OF TRUE GENIUS . = MARZZY

[@dcarman686]

Marginal at best

[@janicerogers6946]

I've been thinking of this song much recently. White men are now much marrying women of color where they weren't like white women have been for years! Leave it to us women to start the change!

[@dcarman686]

Janice Rogers Who the F cares? What we are dealing with is poverty it was this song promotes is poverty. She should’ve sang The following. 1. Graduate from high school 2 Don’t Marry till you’re 25 3 do not have children until you’re married You do those three things And you will eliminate poverty and prejudice.

[@Ione1916]

I remember this song and Janis like it was yesterday. So glad to have been born in 1952. I came of age in the 60s and 70s. What a time…

[@janicetotten8427]

That voice ! It has built in heart break. I still have my parents vinyl. (I'm 64) Just saw her in concert a few weeks ago. The voice is still the same, yet more mature. It was pure magic !

I was only 16yo at the time , I loved the song then , and still do .

[@doneestoner9945]

Me too. I think I was about 13 or 14. Loved it. Makes me cry.

[@kevinmorris6309]

This song is so absolutely amazing in many ways. The eerie melody, the odd tempo changes that actually go together all so well, or the brilliant way of protesting an injustice, but the most fascinating feat was Janis was only 13 when she wrote this very special song. This song only made it to #14 but would have made it so much higher if not for the closed minds of so many radio stations who would not play it. In my humble opinion one of the best songs ever!!!!!!

[@A_Pa-Plainjane]

powerful song, especially for that era, and still remarkedly relevant today. For those who heard it and really listened to it, it probably had a profound affect. Most folks nowadays do not remember how strong the color lines were still drawn at that time, and how much a lot of us wanted to change the racism of that time. Now we still have that racism because many do not realize our true history and how much we have tried to eradicate that kind of stupidity from our behavior. Obviously, we still have a long way to go.

[@lemurianchick]

ONLY #14?! It must have been a smash hit then! The Top 20 was in heavy rotation back in the day. "Society's Child" is cited in the history of '60s music during a magical renaissance that extended into the 'mid-70s. The melody/composition is sophisticated, which makes #14 even more amazing. It was probably banned in various markets, which may have also suppressed its ascent.

[@JannetteRoadsStevens]

she was 12 when she wrote it!! wow

[@gilliansl]

It was banned from Ga radio stations, but it did get some play here and there. I understood the songs so well, as a wonderful guy I worked with (I was a candy striper, he was an orderly at the nursing home) asked me out and my mother was aghast that he was black. I said I'd noticed that, but she refused to let me go out with him.

[@brianwinter4019]

​@@lemurianchick Being #14 in record sales doesn't necessarily equate to a lot of air play.

[@ianson3]

Still overwhelmingly powerful 50+ years later. This woman had guts.

[@ferreestudios]

Janus Ian, is ONE of a kind , and this particular recording, Society's Child, is on my top ten list of 1967 hits. I fell in love with this song in 1967 from the very first time I heard it. Given the FACT that 1967 was chocked full of amazing music, in my mind, she stood out shining bright. Thank GOD, for this WONDERFULLY talented artist. Her song lives in my heart to this day.

[@Wardads1]

That this beautiful woman ever considered herself ugly as in her song "at 17 " amazes me .

[@SailorBarsoom]

Maybe she wrote it for a less beautiful friend?

[@stevecasey1037]

Janis said she was inspired to write the single after reading a The New York Times article about a young woman who believed her life would improve after a debutante ball and her subsequent disappointment when it did not. She was also uncertain about writing about high school when she had never experienced a homecoming or a prom. Janis was living with her mother at the time she wrote it.

[@SailorBarsoom]

@@stevecasey1037 So it was for somebody else, though not somebody she knew personally. Thanks. I knew nothing about the background of the song, though I would hear it on the oldies station from time to time.

[@loralieisa]

Yes she thought she was unattractive. She was not one of the tall blond cheerleaders she said in another video. We see that she is a beauty, but society told her otherwise.

[@vondahe]

Loralieisa M That never tickled my fancy. She’s a natural beauty IMO.

[@paltielbenyamin1273]

I very much remember meeting her outside of the Ash Grove in Los Angeles. She was performing there and took a break outside to smoke a cigarette. I was selling counterculture newspapers. Just the two of us outside on the street. We exchanged pleasantries. She went back in to do her gig, and I remained outside selling newspapers

[@proudcynophile1901]

[@dougeaton4297]

I was 15 yrs old when this song came out in '65. I really resonated with it but didn't exactly know why. That realization came much later. Times were fast changing in the mid late 60's and thank goodness for Janis, Tom and Dick at this time of my life.

[@PuppyPetite]

I think even at 16 she was a Legend for breaking down the barriers of interracial relations and having the guts to go on stage and face in audience, not knowing what to expect from them
