All I Want

from kat330 Hosted by kat330

Nov. 25, 2013 [recorded piecemeal amidst our alleyway cacophony] Another cover of Mother (Superior) Mitchell off her sublime "Blue" album. I make it a point never to revisit any song I cover before recording my own spin on it. This usually means I miss a lot of the original musical boat -- often lyrics as well -- but it also can help ensure a more unique version as opposed to a merely faithful cover. For e.g., I know my intro / outro dissonance sections are way off from what Joni does, but I had a lot of fun finding a variety of synthstrument sounds to layer for my take on my aural memory of it. Her lyrics here (and everywhere) resonated with me as a young girl and still do today. Even if I no longer "wreck my stockings in some jukebox dive," I still "wanna be strong" "wanna have fun" "wanna laugh along" "wanna shine like the sun" "wanna belong to the living" and "wanna be the one that you want to" hear. Warm Thanksgiving wishes to all U.S.ers! :)
