Sheryl Crow - If It Makes You Happy - live - 2002 - lyrics

Sheryl Crow - If It Makes You Happy - live - 2002 - Nippon Budokan, Tokyo, Japan.
イフ・イット・メイクス・ユー・ハッピー
Even with her voice in shreds doing the high notes toward the end, it's still a great performance. Peter Stroud on lead guitar.
Lyrics:
I belong, a long way from here
I put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,
And drank 'til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen
Well, alright, I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Who hasn't been there before?
I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again
Well alright Tokyo, I still get stoned
But I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad
We've been far, far away from here
We put on a poncho, played for mosquitos
And everywhere in between
Well alright we get along
So what if right now everything's wrong?
If it makes you happy
He can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
If it makes you happy
He can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
.

Sheryl Crow one of the best female singers from the 1990s.I love her.

[@unicajamalaga2]

Эта песня конечно супер 👍 а есть ещё хорошие у нее??

[@jaimeruizcortinaz844]

My Sheryl Crow, I love her because she looks so much like the woman who was the love of my life, she is called Lorena. I also love this song because it was published in the year of 1996, which was the best year I spent with her. Every time I watch this video where Sherly looks gorgeous, the lorena's memories come back and it seems as if everything had happened yesterday. That is when I understand that music is a very valuable way of expression, because it connects us with momentary passages of our life in which we share our time with other people. That woman did not continue with me because maybe things had to be that way, but anyway, what I am sure of is that it is now a very beautiful memory. Thanks Shery, thanks for your talent and your music.

She's so good live. One of those artists who actually sounds like she does on record, if not better. I can't wait for her new album! :D

[@andrewlowe9969]

Sheryl is an awesome singer, songwriter and guitarist!! So many influences and she blends them so well together. A bit of rock, country, rockabilly. With influences of many like Willie Nelson, George Harrison and so many more she is one talented artist. One of my favourite performances is when she plays "Today I Started Loving You Again" to Merle Haggard with Willie Nelson. She played and sang wonderfully and not to mention she looked amazing in the colour of green she wore that night! Merle wasn't very well, but he began to sing the words and his eyes were watering for the beautiful moment they both gave him!

[@benyoung4305]

Sheryl is an absolute icon, so underrated and she is right about the mysogynist attitudes that shaped her career. As a kid of the 90's I see her as essential to my youth and the wonderful tradition of female songwriters of that time.

[@michaeldavidfigures9842]

Sheryl Crow at her best! Every time she tears into that chorus and belts out HAPPY there is so much pain, angst, and paradoxically joy & happiness as well, my eyes just pool up. I think I can feel everything she's been through. This and She Talks to Angels are my favorite songs from this decade. Great song! Great gal!

Oh my! What an awesome reading of this song. For me what makes this such a great tune is the chorus: the 2-4-1-5 chord progression with her jumping a full octave on "If it MAKES you Hap - peeee" just sends chills. Thanks for posting!

Magnificent!!! live, better then the studio version!!

No aniversário de Ringo Star ela tocou ukulele, piano, baixo, cello, guitarra, sanfona, percussão: uma explosão de talento; é ainda fez a vocalização da música. Uma artista que pode gravar uma música só sem precisar de ninguém.Detalhe importante: nunca precisou mostrar o corpo para fazer sucesso, e é linda

Does any song close any sweeter than this one does? The first time I heard it what a sensation, and now after hearing it for years I know that beautiful closing is coming and start to get goosebumps just anticipating it....good songs are songs that give you goosebumps when you hear them. Great songs are songs that give you goosebumps when you think about them. This is a GREAT song.

1996: My first year abroad as a young diplomat, full of illusion and good vibes. Life may be cruel, but I am here, near 60 yo now and in love with my spouse after all these years. 1996, the year I bought my first Alfa Romeo, a beautiful black 155 DTM that I still have with me :)

I some times wonder. How things that make you happy leave you sad.Guess its the way you look at how you feel if you turn it to a what if and that's just a way to keep that moment in time from being better. What if never comes and you made yourself sad for no reason. Just my opinion to not worry or be sad. Today will take care of itself and tomorrow is just another today. So that tomorrow may never come for that sad what if. Live ,Love and be happy everyday.😀💓👍 Just for thought. I you never had a bad or sad day how would know if they were good or happy?😏it rains on everyone sometime or the other.
