How is it Rickie was only 25 years old when she performed this song? Somber. Deep. That soulful sax. A masterpiece.

Anybody that listens to this and doesn't hear and feel the pain of a lost love, has never felt the pain of love at all.

When Ricki performs live and the audience is just right, she'll let you in with a spellbinding performance like this. No one in the world remotely like her.💗

Amazing performance. I’ve never seen such a powerful performance in a whisper

@leafnlore2712 3 жыл бұрын

The quieter she gets, the more powerful she is. Damn!

Saw her do this back on SNL in 79. Went out and bought the cassette and fell in love with her music. Listening to this 42 years later moves me just as much as it did back then.

That SNL appearance made her an overnight sensation. Everybody was blown away by her sultry performance.

She's my very favorite. No one else is this fantastic in my opinion

RLJ is so far ahead of her time... friggin' absolutely scary-incredible sensitive beautiful powerful aggressive artist... love you!

A beautiful Ode to her great romance, Tom Waits, and the baritone growl to accentuate her love.

@warrenmorphis4208 Жыл бұрын

Ricki is the only singer, that can make a barely audible whisper make the hair on your neck stand up, and at the same time, evoke so much emotion....Incredible, unique and timeless talent.

That whisper. Fucking brilliant. No one is more evocative than RLJ in her performance.

i saw this in 1981 in California on SNL. Been looking for it ever since, only took 43 years to find it; it's still magic!

Love the moment when she sings and mugs up like Tom Waits - if he ever saw this, I bet he got the jitters at her power.

A romantic ode to her great love, Tom Waits, with an added baritone growl for emphasis.

@ijustwannabe21 I like the darker stuff she does. Last Chance Texaco and this from her first album just blow me away. Company is good. So too "On Saturday Afternoons in 1963". Girl was a total hipster and belonged in the Beat era of the late fifties.

Ah I seem to remember when Rickie Lee appeared with those first 3 records, I could not stop listening to them, "Last Chance", "Company", "We Belong Together", "Rainbow Sleeves", , , , love to get lost in "Coolsville" with Rickie, , ,

Nuance! That is big. The difference between good music and great music, in my opinion, is nuance.

@echowalker2153 4 жыл бұрын

Yes nuance is that poetic ability to write in such a way that the listener/reader sees something new every time they 👂 or 👀. MS. Jones had that ability. So rare. J and b and me sounds close but it ain't the same...new meaning now that I look back. Wish I knew then what I kinda sorta know now. JB is still the essence of Coolsville. 1st love is just that way.

This is brilliant. I immediatley thought of Laura Nyro - and how her immensely personal songs became universal pop hits. In a diiferent time the same could have been true for Rickie Lee.

I think this is LA ... 1992? Its nice for people to see where so much of what the girls do now, and take for granted .. was planted... from jazz to pop... the real thing eh. and o boy the way those rock star gloves as fashion staple were first done on stage by RLJ back in 1979.

She's been this addict's sound track through the gutter, the pain and the joy. Nobody leaves Coolsville without scars but the scars on our hands and His, save our fellow addicts from the pied piper, Pan.

@bendbadgersteve hi.....you were right about the junk. Cant sing the blues without a few miles on ya....her studio version is better in some ways and some ways not. If you want to cry....check out "Company" or "Skeletons" if you wanna groove hit that you tube link to her doing Weasel in Paris.
