She wants a relationship that is not suffocating and obsessive.

[@ConspiracySmurf]

Yep :)

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

:D Don't we all....

[@marleybob3157]

Couldn't have said it better. That is what I always interpreted the meaning.

[@jackiecarson859]

Yeah, some people's love can feel as if they're squeezing the life out of you. I knew someone who was pissed that her husband had.....friends. "Why does he need friends when he's got *ME?"* Of course he eventually left her. Can't say I blame him.

[@jackiecarson859]

Some are into that sort of thing. Me, I'd run screaming into the night to get away. Yes, there would be *screaming.*

[@kwhitaker1967]

I don’t want no one to squeeze (control) me. She just wants someone to love her, not try to control her life.

[@Tommy-he7dx]

"Squeeze" is also a slang term for someone who are intimate with, but not necessarily in a relationship with.

[@christywhitley6053]

Exactly. My husband treated me like a possession, was extremely jealous with zero reason. His insecurities drove me away. Sad.

[@susieautrey6112]

You're learning, P. It is blues guitar. I don't want no one squeeze me, they might take away my life - she doesn't want a jealous fool that will try to change who she is. She wants a comfortable relationship with the freedom to be herself.

[@LibraAllWoman]

Exactly. Also, she doesn't want to be suffocated within the relationship. Being squeezed is a demonstration of dominance, control, and desperation. However, being held demonstrates love, tenderness, and appreciation.

[@chrisergna617]

Also the old tell 'em, and then tell 'em what you told 'em vocal style that is classic blues.

[@lethasatterfield9615]

I ADORE Tracy Chapman. Not only is she wonderfully talented, everything I've ever observed or read about her reveals her as a kind and gentle soul. And she's absolutely real...no pretension there. She is a rare human.

[@donnaewe3692]

Your daughter...so precious. Hope her little sis feels better soon! ❤

[@GranpaMike]

The "squeeze" part equates to excessive clinginess. She's saying that a person who is too clingy basically saps your life away, imposing themselves on you and draining the days and freedoms of your life.

[@danevans5823]

Hold on loosely,don't grip too tight with jealousy

[@catserver8577]

Yep. If you hold on too tight, drains the life out of any loving relationship. It's not physical. She wants it to be voluntary, because the people want to be there.

[@sundayze]

Made me think of "Hold on loosely, but don't let go" 38 Special's wise lyrics.

[@dawnyoung8]

Mac Davis , I don’t need no hanging vine . Baby don’t get hooked on me

[@travismiller1640]

Is that a .38 Special plug, lol?

[@dawnyoung8]

@@travismiller1640 I think they were saying it’s the same sentiment and yes it’s .38 special . I quoted Mac Davis as baby don’t get hooked on me because it’s also the same sentiment . All great songs !

[@georgewarner7210]

“Don’t squeeze me just hold me”… like metaphorical bro… like don’t smother me…just hold me gently. Don’t be a bug/crazy person/try to control me type of guy…just hold me and rock me thru the night. We are both adults here…we can both have our own lives separate from each other…but love each other at the same time… ya know?

[@scipio7837]

Thank-you for leaving in those moments with your daughter... my daughter is 23 now. Kinda miss those innocent times. It goes fast mate. Real fast.

[@LillyMarzSheps]

Life does go too fast. My first born is now a grandpa 6 times over. 😮

[@stephaniefain1863]

LOL, mine is looking at 30,I look at her everyday, and wonder what I would pay to have her 10 again. I did ok. Shes is a proud, strong woman, but man what would I give to have another run at it??? Funnest kid ever. I did all I could to keep the curiosity going, and she seemed to exhaust me, but, I’d do it again. And try harder.

[@ginalynnt09]

She is the G.O.A.T! Her voice, musicianship, songwriting/story telling are all just top tier!

[@darkfatekod3962]

G.O.A.T.? Let me get this right. Not Whitney, Chaka Khan, Mariah, Celine, Ann Wilson, or Stevie Nicks. Just to name a few incredible, GENERATIONAL, sirens from varied genres. But you got Natalie Chapman in the G.O.A.T. conversation!? Miss, please slowly remove your hands keyboard and walk away...

[@ginalynnt09]

Lmao someone has a little too much time on their hands to be a keyboard bully 😂 They're all legends. Simple as that. But this isn't about anyone other than Tracy Chapman. I said what I said. Maybe you should think twice before being so rude to strangers for no reason or if they have a different opinion than yours? Time for you to go now 👋🏻

[@randyallaben9900]

Blues is the root of all music in the last 100 years-Rock, Country, Rap, funk, you name it.

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

Sure, blues has greatly influenced many genres of music, but not all. Folk, reggae, contemporary "classical" music, and industrial rock have taken very little from blues. Blues itself had its origins in West African traditional rhythms. So all western music is interconnected to a degree.

[@itsallgood4093]

You forget about British, Irish and Scottish folk songs. Other European music also influenced today's music.

[@chasephillips6460]

I really like the rendition she did with Eric Clapton

[@chasephillips6460]

Oh shit you just mentioned how it reminds you of him lol

[@patriciatighe]

That’s my favorite rendition ❤ you have great taste

[@tracybrown1942]

She doesn’t want to be smothered. She just wants to be loved.

[@heatherwhyte-sr8em]

I think she means don't hold so tight that she feels trapped or can't breathe, figuratively, just hold her enough to show you care... Just my interpretation

[@PebblesBlue]

Makes sense to me

[@cerisewilson4088]

Yes, that’s what I thought too.

[@meaghanhoffmann5869]

Your daughter! ! ❤! - I am the mom of a 20 yr old and i'm telling you you better enjoy the hell out of it now cuz she'll be in high school and wanting to do her own thing before you know it!

[@patriciaasher4614]

My kids are 38 and 43! And I feel like I don't know when that happened!!!! It was so fast! Like being side swiped by a fast-moving train!!! Hold them tight, but give them wings! And take LOTS of pictures!!!

[@jeanniedebartolo5965]

Your little girl is adorable ❤. Love Tracey Chapman. My style. Laid back cool and amazing ❤

[@pamcrumpler9169]

When she says squeeze me I take it as don't suffocate me

[@mlbw1966]

Children will be Children.. Loving her Daddy. 💕

[@linnightl9277]

"Don't smother me"

[@Whitesquall123]

This song is like a fantastic neopolitan pizza. Nothing fancy, no over the top ingredients, just simple, straightforward and executed to perfection.

[@WhodatLucy]

Tracy first recorded this in 1995 and now it’s out again making new people fall in love with her voice again

[@pyroishere]

Awwwww!!! Love when the lil one appears! ♥ This song is amazing, her voice! WOW! Always loved this song...40!

[@mayetchells8884]

I cannot listen to her often, I find her music incredibly moving and powerful. Your daughter is adorable

[@bjw0515]

I love this song and the bass line is incredible! Your little girl is adorable. Much love to you and your family.

[@karlweir3198]

I love love love this song! ❤❤❤❤. Thanks for doing this one this one is my favorite of her songs

[@elizabethyow2232]

This and The Promise.

[@snezzevp]

The BEST part of the reaction was your daughter and that REAL moment. Love it! I raised my kids, now grandkids are everything.

[@LikeUCare123]

Such a good dad.

[@sherribrock2726]

Sometimes, we can overthink a song instead of just enjoying it!!

[@mlramey8632]

Love Tracy Chapman and this is my favorite!!!

[@samueltabo3390]

One of my favorites songs from 1996, I forgot how great song this is! It won the Grammy award for Best Rock song, it definitely is a song that could fit in different genres, definitely bluesy rock

[@zinnia2980]

British people have always loved Tracey Chapman as she was invited to appear at Wembley stadium at The Nelson Mandela concert and it was so very special ❤️ 👋 I have always loved The Promise and Baby Can I Hold You. Terrific 💚👌

[@marypittman5821]

Never get tired of this tune, baby girl is adorable 💗

[@36karpatoruski]

Fast Car - lyrics. Give Me One Reason - music! I’ll take blues based music every time. It’s what’s sorely missing in almost all today’s and recent music. The music industry doesn’t want to touch it, nor do the artists. Pretty much pops up only rarely, primarily in what’s left in the Rock (not metal) world. And it is a crime.

[@joypagni3088]

Hey, your first most important thing in life is to be DADDY. Your daughter is everything. Love seeing that. And yes, Tracy Chapman brings a raw honesty to all her songs. Hope you raise your daughter to be that brave. Love your reactions, and send love to your family. God bless.

[@luciatheron1621]

I saw her at Brixton Academy back in the early 90s. She was brilliant, classy and a beautifull woman. Her voice is phenomenal.❤

[@gracemichelli.2am124]

Loved this song. Traci was fire 🔥 ❤

[@lauramathews827]

The soul of this lady is beyond profound! Tracy is what rhythm & blue is in totality. If you don't feel her when she performs then you are dead inside! Beautiful she is! ❤❤❤

[@RockinMamaT]

Tracy❤ She was always so groovy. Beautiful girl has a beautiful smile. She's saying if she gives her life to someone they migh smother her, that's what I gathered. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️

[@user-pf7jm9go6o]

Everybody freaked out about how catchy this song was when it was released, and it is, but it is simple 12-bar blues (if you don't know what this is, ask a musician friend). Very clever of her to bring it to the masses, but any beginning guitarist is familiar with this form.

[@jackiecarson859]

But SHE did it, with her special voice and vibe. THAT'S the difference.

[@bigtuna9529]

Thousands of songs have been written over many years which are ‘based’ on the 12-bar blues music form and variations of it.

[@TheColdrush22]

You know that we would love your kid to be in on this... But this is awesome.

[@Clinty93]

"All You Have is Your Soul" Lot's of wisdom in the song. I think people would like it. Love Tracy Chapman❤

[@mikmaqwoman]

Simply a figure of speech....

[@rubroken]

What a unique and beautiful voice

[@Kipperbob]

Cool tune, Tracy is great, her cassette tape was on rotation in my car back in the day, and I'm in Ireland. So she was a world wide hit with tunes that told everyone's story in one way or another.

[@thomasjones4570]

Hope all is cool with the kids mate. And your daughter coming in to say I love you was too mother effing sweet.

[@kimzwolinski9919]

Your daughter is adorable ❤ Hope baby girl feels better quickly 🙏🏼❤️ I love this song! Tracy is incredible.

[@jarstal]

This came out when I was still working at the music store, and I swear I sold thousands of her CDs. Ed

[@gdenny1748]

She doesn’t want anyone to control her she just someone who’s gonna rock her world softly & sweetly

[@Tommy-he7dx]

This is Rhythm & Blues. Blues guitars with mainly Blues subject matter, but with a much larger band giving a sort of "Happy" feeling to the music.

[@kelleewolfe2834]

She looks like her mama!!! What a doll. Seems like you're a great and patient dad. Keep doing what you doll!!

[@ZacCostilla]

Growing up a blues fan, I ALWAYS appreciate a straight 12-bar, I-IV-V blues song!

[@cerisewilson4088]

Check out her song Talkin’ About A Revolution.

[@jamesscott8988]

Great reaction to a great singer but beautiful baby daughter stole the show. You my man are credit to fatherhood. Congrats

[@sumonjamal1653]

If u listen to Tracy Chapman's debut album, u will notice that she tells stories about other people... not necessarily her personal experiences. That was where 'Fast car' came from... a familiar story in America of the reality of young people trying to find an escape from their problems... She wrote 'Across the lines'... about race riots in America's past... the spoken word track 'Behind the wall'... was written about the reality of domestic abuse and femicide.

[@RKOENT]

Gotta check out the cover by Black Stone Cherry

[@sueny2043]

You'll love the version of this song with Tracy and Eric 😁🎶

[@toddellison5128]

Tracy Chapman is a real treasure.

[@AngB517]

This is my favorite song that she did. I love Fast Car....but it's got to be Give Me One Reason precisely for the bluesy feel. She was writing from the POV of empathy. :) Oh my gosh, too precious I so appreciate seeing you in Dad mode, you don't talk *at* but *to* her.. .... my baby turned 18 this weekend. I think I blinked too long. Don't explain, the family is more important than anyone that even tries to think of grouching about it. 💓❣

[@SangsterThia]

Awww. So sweet with your little girl. Love this song.

[@karenvega7089]

Tracy Chapman is so amazing. I would love to have her recording again.

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

I love this song and I love Tracy Chapman. She is a true authentic artist! Her songwriting and singing is so pure and beautiful!! The "squeeze me" line seems like she's saying don't try to control or contain her...just love her!💖💖

[@ricksurratt9034]

Love the bass line

[@cherrypickerguitars]

All the female blues singers I worked with in the 90’s covered this song! ‘Cause it’s FIRE! The band always loved it, too! Peace

[@evanspage5]

This lady is solid diamond! Absolute best of music can offer.

[@leonardwashington6456]

Classic 12 bar blues. Well-executed by Ms. Chapman. Her performance of this with Eric Clapton was great. Been listening to her since i can remember. She's a beautiful soul ❤

[@mariebishop7357]

Tracy Chapman is a real one. She sings about things we can relate to. I feel her songs in my soul.

[@loiskondo8349]

She is a classic! Thanks for the reaction! Your daughter is precious! I hope the baby is better soon!

[@rubypickles1836]

She's such a beautiful artist. Songwriting, singing, musicality, the whole package.

[@MommaBird52]

So happy Boo Boo dropped by to say hi! What a cutie -- love her!

[@matthewgoodA1206]

Always seemed like a song done in a timeless, classic blues style to me. And Ms. Chapman do got a rich, bluesy voice.

[@baronbink1594]

Thank you for leaving your daughter in, She is adorable.

[@chelseahaley8350]

Awe....Hi Alynia!! I bet she loves having ur studio at home!

[@maryhanrahan]

The next Tracey to do - "Revolution'

[@sharonspiller7427]

I love this song. One of my top 10 of all time. Tracy Chapman is sublime.

[@karensilvera6694]

I hope the baby is ok. Sending thoughts and prayers.

[@debradillard315]

Love TC❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dystar112]

Tracey has an incredible voice and i still love this in 2024. Its my fave TC song 😊

[@conniewagner4234]

Prayers for your baby girl. I hope she gets better soon. Her older sister is cute. She loves her daddy. 😊 …I love Give Me One Reason. Tracy is awesome!

[@girlinvt]

She doesn't want a relationship that's controlling, or suffocating. She wants one that respects her and loves her.

[@pearlquintanilla6142]

BP, your daughter is gorgeous 😍 love when she makes her little VIP "walk ons," lol. Family first 🫶. When I was in my 20s & a first-time mom, on rough nights, my (toddler) son (now 39) would fall asleep to the soothing sounds of Tracy Chapman's voice & music. IMO Tracy is the "GOAT"!! ❤🫶

[@rhondaserges5136]

Loving Tracy Chapman and thinking your a great daddy .. lucky little lady.

[@24CiViC]

Yep. Love Tracey Chapman! The Promise is another amazing track.

[@bonniekellyromeo9073]

Tracy Chapman is AMAZING. Where did she go???

[@juggalonumber27]

Had kids, living off of royalties. Plays festivals from time to time. She keeps her music VERY tight to her, she doesn't license it out or let people cover her stuff. She just doesn't have a rockstar lifestyle so doesn't need rockstar pay

[@mckenziepaigemusic]

Firstly, your Daughter is precious. Secondly, there is actually a duet of this song by Tracy Chapman and Eric Clapton, they kill it together. This is DEFINITELY the blues, and it's completely my jam! The Squeeze me line is what everyone else is saying, don't stifle me, don't control me and take my life, just love me. I loved this reaction! I always love your stuff Black P! Keep it up!

[@brookee7391]

"I don't want no one to squeeze me"(break her heart because it will essentially and ) "might take away my life" ...( truly, death by a broken heart). So she'd rather them be up front and honest , if it's a one night stand, at least be a loyal friend, (as in, at least: " hold me, and rock me through the night" , I'm already broken, don't break me, anymore) regardless, I feel the passionate fire in her voice,😂 the sting and pain, she's referencing directly. ..It's deep, blues, soul, everything, beautiful. Much love to you and your fam, P. ♡B

[@timp1390]

Her voice is absolutely elite

[@jaythailandjay914]

Love you Daddy....

[@sbigford]

It was 1996/1997, I was in the Army, stationed in Camp Zama, Japan, coming back to work after lunch; as I pulled into the parking lot this song came on Armed Forces Radio. Never heard it, nor of her, before. I sat in the car and listened to the song all the way thru, which I NEVER did. As soon as it was over I put the car in reverse and drove to the Post Exchange just hoping they had Tracy's CD. They did, and of course I still have it all these years later.

[@justdone1068]

Awww "I love You" what a sweet little doll 💞

[@rainbowcrockett3520]

The little interaction with your daughter OMG so freaking cute!

[@wendyreveyoso3731]

Your baby girl is the CUTEST and so polite!!!! ❤❤ I hope the new baby gets to feeling better!!!!!

[@donitaharchar6525]

Prayers for Baby and all of your precious family 🙏💜💐. This beautiful soul gives me chills everytime! Straight gift of God, all that talent in one sweet soul! Lord, Thank you! 🙏💜💐

[@debrapugh6799]

Happy Tuesday.... ❤ This song🤘

LOVE Tracey Chapman!

[@MontanaCindyLou]

Her voice always gives me goosebumps. So amazingly talented.

[@satyasunshine9737]

Another spectacular song by an EPIC artist/ sister!!!!!!🫶🥰🎵🎶💚💜💛🩵🤍🖤🤎🔮🌈

[@CSharp-hk9oc]

I never really cared for the blues, but Tracy Chapman is top notch.

[@TheBlackRobyn]

Love Tracy Chapman her voice is so RICH 👌🏼

[@cindydegraaff5083]

Been following her for 20 years. Love her!

[@mitchellbeston1033]

A few bangers from Tracy..."Bridges", "Crossroads", "Bang, Bang, Bang", "Why?", "Subcity"
