My beautiful daughter had this song played during her “walk” when graduating from a rehab several years ago. She was determined to change, she wanted it so badly. Unfortunately, the disease of addiction is cunning… She lost her battle in March of this year. But I know this song has brought much-needed hope too many out there that are still sick and suffering. Amazing song. 💝

Not enough music industry accolades & lifetime acheivement awards have been given to this genuine humble singer songwriter. Her instruments being her voice & guitar so simplistic yet phenomenal in its simplicity & purity. Musicians need to take a leaf out of Tracey Chapman's book - a master of incredibly rare unique storytelling ability with a gifted voice.

And they just call her a folk singer..... I call her a prophetic witness to truth and love through her music, and that is her testimony for this generation. Tracy is so at peace with her own life and the ownership of her soul that she offends no one... Her message is that God = Love

A lot of people ask why Tracy Chapman wasnt more popular or mainstream. Let's face it, her raw and honest discussion of race and exploitation of people is a message mainstream America still doesnt want to confront.

Nobody has more honest lyrics than her. She gets you right as the first line is delivered

Her Grammy performance brought me back to this one. ❤

If you knew that you would die today Saw the face of God and love Would you change? Would you change? If you knew that love can break your heart When you're down so low you cannot fall Would you change? Would you change? How bad, how good does it need to get? How many losses? How much regret? What chain reaction would cause an effect? Makes you turn around Makes you try to explain Makes you forgive and forget Makes you change? Makes you change? If you knew that you would be alone Knowing right, being wrong Would you change? Would you change? If you knew that you would find a truth That brings up pain that can't be soothed Would you change? Would you change? How bad, how good does it need to get? How many losses? How much regret? What chain reaction would cause an effect? Makes you turn around Makes you try to explain Makes you forgive and forget Makes you change? Makes you change? Are you so upright you can't be bent? If it comes to blows Are you so sure you won't be crawling? If not for the good, why risk falling? Why risk falling? If everything you think you know Makes your life unbearable Would you change? Would you change? If you'd broken every rule and vow And hard times come to bring you down Would you change? Would you change? If you knew that you would die today If you saw the face of God and love Would you change? Would you change? Would you change? Would you change? If you saw the face of God and love If you saw the face of God and love Would you change? Would you change?

How many other people would go to the end of the earth to see a tracy chapman concert?

"When you're down so low you cannot fall, would you change" those lyrics and her soulful voice and guitar playing, this song really touches the heart.

Her songs produce a feeling within you that is just too profound to explain using man made words.

I’ve always thought this was her best and most underrated song. That guitar part during the chorus always gets me..

The only song that makes sense of this world today ! 2024 let us pray

Such a nice song - Tracy is totally underrated - she is one of the greatest songwriters the world has ever seen.

2020 we are fighting through incredibly painful times and songs like these bring much needed medicine. Come back Tracy Chapman and sing us into a new humanity. Yes we must change.

Her writing is like poetry. Such beautiful imagery. And the music is always just right.

In 2024 - Tracy Chapman’s Music is so relevant - You saw the face of God and love Would you change? Would you change

She has always been such a brilliant writer and singer. Can't understand how those with so much less talent gain so much more recognition

Danke Tracy. Wir lieben Dich.♥

I"m older but have been listening to Tracy since she came on the music scene with her honest observations of our society. Her lyrics and music are so pure.

I can't imagine walking by her and casually tossing a buck into her guitar case. This song pulls my heart out of my chest. I would not have left until the last note was played and the last tear shed.

Her music is like medicine for the soul,... it has the ability to lift my spirits always, for so many years now

I was always in love with her... Unconsciously I was looking for her and I found my own Tracy... And she is now my wife... Happy forever

This song just showed up on my page after I spoke to my sister about change and wanting to see God's face

This beautiful woman is one of the most underrated singer/songwriters ever. So humble. Her message in the era of George Floyd is still alive and active!

Different parts of this song created epiphanies in different parts of my life. I owe this woman thanks for at least three excellent pivots. 1.). When everything you think you know, makes you your life unbearable, would you change? 2007 (This was HUGE) 2.). Are you so upright that you can’t defend if it comes to blows? 2020 3.)how bad, how good does it need to get? How many losses how much regret? 2022

This is what should be playing everywhere!! We should all stand together for the future of our children with peace & unconditional love💞

as i watch our country tear itself apart, i find myself wanting to listen to this song.

I feel like her music has had a resurgence. I just think we long for good quality music these days and her song writing just hits in all the right places. I’ve been a lover of folk music my whole life but I do remember listening to her albums during the pandemic and I do liked this album ❤

I'm struggling with the loss of the love of my life. I didn't realize how bitter it made me. I thought I still had my faith but I didn't. This song made me realize that.Every day is a gift. I woke up today in so much physical pain. I wasn't greatful to be alive but I also knew that was not right. I have congestive heart failure and spots on my lungs idk about the diagnosis yet . The holy spirit convicted me. Tracey Chapman is an anointed artist. Thank you for this song.vi WILL change!!

Tracy Chapman for the Nobel Prize in Literature.

You’re here because you have a great taste in music

Uma mulher linda, talentosa, sensível, mas ao mesmo tempo simples e humilde. Tenho 55 anos e é para mim uma das melhores vozes que me tem acompanhado ao longo destes anos.

If you knew that you would die today You saw the face of God and love Would you change? Would you change?

wow she makes me want to be a better person. her music enlightens me . i love you tracy

The radio stations don’t want us to hear this kind of music. Love you, sister!

If you saw the face of God and love. Tracy Chapman keeps it real 💯

it seems that i am not the only one who find confort by Tracy.....bless u all ...stay healthy...

I used to wanna be like this woman when I was a kid, I used to write songs with her in mind...I never really hit high notes so people thought I should do more all the time... Of course I could never be like Tracy, but I wish they could hear how she inspired me...🥲...I shouldn't wish I didn't change, cuz everything in life is going to be alright, but this woman was an inspiration to me growing up... Some of her songs should be anthems, some of them traditional songs... This woman was one of the first singers who made me think, her notes had a frequency so hard to ignore... Because of her, if the lyrics don't make sense, I don't want the song ... This lady was like a teacher to me with emotions... She still moves my soul...😭

Tracy Chapman sang from her soul to yours.. we need Tracey chapman singers in the 21st century....singing about truth and real sincerity..were are the 21st century songwriters????

IM DYING HERE IN PORT ORFORD OREGON CRYING MY EYES OUT LISTENING TO TRACY'S VOICE (THE UNIVERSAL MESSAGE) IM IN SOOOOO MUCH PAIN AND ANGUISH FOR THE ENTIRE PLANETS PAIN AND SUFFERING...FOR ALL GODS CREATIONS

I heard this beautiful voice and I thought where has this woman been. She looks younger than the first time I saw her. Time capsule! Loving her music now like I loved it then.

Hands down, her greatest song. And she has A LOT of great ones.

When my dad died in 2011, I saw the face of God and love, and I fell in love with this song.

Who is still listening to this masterpiece in 2022

Absolutely love this Woman’s attitude. Her timeless music is always deep and relevant.

One of the best and honest singers.. her songs make you speechless for a moment..

my dad showed me song one of many of the greatest songs in the world like stephen marley and bob marley......all good reggae vibes......love this christian song always go back to this song all the time when I can......

This song should be considered a hymn and played in church before every service.

Dear goddess Chapman, I once said to myself, whilst listening to your music (this one): No, despite everything I wouldn't change". And yet, I've changed or, better said, I've been changed.

We need this music NOW

Such an amazing song. I only just discovered this one a few days ago and it really speaks to me on a deep level. Tracy Chapman is an absolutely amazing artist and singer and she is beautiful.

Anybody going through sobriety or emotional conflict issues should take a listen to this song.

I like Fast Car, but this is my favorite Tracy Chapman song. ❤

Tracy Chapman lyrics should be required school curriculum.

Because of your song Tracy, as proof of my love for you, I will change... promise.

I have been her fan since 1980s...when she stole the show at the Grammy's while grabbing one for her song Fast Car...❤️❤️🤗🤗

Who else discovered this absolute banger of a track from it being perfectly used in that hbo promo in 2007 and spent the last two days pacing around racking their brain trying to think of the title and artist?

Yeshua “Jesus” Christ changes a person and transforms the hearts of sinners towards reconciliation with God and love for God. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ (Messiah), he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” 2 Cor 5:17

Perfect, brilliant song, my favourite of her's. I don't know how she manages to write lyrics that both cut like a knife, and at the same time soothe.

Change only happens when you put in the works🇺🇸🙏

Ever so often I listen to this song and resonate with every single word. But, will I change?

2020. This is so gorgeous. Just hearing this now for the first time. Oh, I love you, Tracy.💓 (I was born March 30th, too, haha😘)

Ohne Worte. Nur Herz❤. Nicht von dieser Welt...

This song is a masterpiece. At this point she is making Shakespeare look shady

#TRACYCHAPMAN #WHEREYOULIVE It can be difficult to make necessary changes in our lives.Change is hard. We have become comfortable with the familiar. But, sometimes we need to do a new thing to improve ourselves. Tracy always seems to speak about things we are or have gone through. Its as though she has "a window into our souls" 😀👍👍👍🎸🎹🥁🎸💝❤️💖💜💛💚🧡

Love this woman. She is so underrated omg!

I used to listen to a lot of joan armatrading and then tracy Chapman helped me change great things, and I now understand a lot more.

Como eu amo essa cantora. Tracy é uma das maiores vozes femininas da música. Os anos passam, e suas músicas mantém o mesmo frescor.

From so many of us out here... Thank YOU!!!!!! Thank you for sharing your music, your dreams, your fears and your heart for so many decades. Thank you for being our voice when we couldn't speak. Thank you.

These are the words we need today! Love one another, all men are created equal #justiceforgeorgefloyd

I miss Tracy, I hope she'll come back to the music world soon.

Какая шикарная песня, какой голос. Слушаю Tracy Chapman уже 20 лет считаю , что не дооценили эту прекрасную артистку в музыкальном мире

I love ALL of her songs she is so poetic and her songs have meaning

A song that lingers and lingers and makes you come back here to listen again and again... Beautiful, warm voice and lyrics that are relevant more than ever in today's world. 💙👏🏻🌻

Si supieras que morirías hoy Vieras el rostro de Dios y amarías ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? Si supieras que el amor no puede romper tu corazón Cuando estás tan deprimido, no puedes caer ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? ¿Qué tan malo, qué tan bueno necesita llegar a ser? ¿Cuántas pérdidas? ¿Cuánto arrepentimiento? ¿Qué reacción en cadena causaría un efecto? Te hace darte la vuelta Te hace intentar explicar Te hace perdonar y olvidar Te hace cambiar Te hace cambiar Si supieras que estarías solo, sabiendo lo correcto y estando equivocado, ¿cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? Si supieras que encontrarías una verdad que trae un dolor que no puede ser calmado ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? ¿Qué tan malo, qué tan bueno necesita llegar a ser? ¿Cuántas pérdidas? ¿Cuánto arrepentimiento? ¿Qué reacción en cadena causaría un efecto? Te hace darte la vuelta Te hace intentar explicar Te hace perdonar y olvidar Te hace cambiar Te hace cambiar ¿Eres tan erguido que no puedes doblarte si se trata de golpes? ¿Estás tan seguro de que no gatearás? Si no es por el bien, ¿por qué arriesgarse a caer? ¿Por qué arriesgarse a caer? Si todo lo que crees saber hace que tu vida sea insoportable ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? Si hubieras roto todas las reglas y votos Y vinieran tiempos difíciles para derribarte ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? Si supieras que morirías hoy Si vieras el rostro de Dios y el amor ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías? Si vieras el rostro de Dios y el amor Si vieras el rostro de Dios y el amor ¿Cambiarías? ¿Cambiarías?

i’m shocked this was even made into a music video (Where You Live) is a really good album it’s heartbreaking a woman with such limitless talent like Tracy Chapman has never been given a proper mainstream push..... Her music is real & pure

No she is a master poet of the heart and has genius talent singing our lives.

OMG. Tuned into Tracy Chapman at a sleepless 3 am . Going from one song to another and wondering where the hell this wonderful singer is today?! Hear her with Clapton on Give Me One Reason ...but there are so many songs ....

Her voice is deeper than mine and she has more talent in one pinky than i have in my whole body! I love Tracy!!

I saw them film this music video. I actually sat down and talked with Tracy. She actually is quite beautiful and I just melted into the chair every time she smiled as she spoke. She is a lovely person.

I love you Tracy. Your music speaks to my soul.♥️

Questa canzone è così piena di verità e sentimenti. Amo❤

Happy valentines day to the one who knows 💔💔

She is so good ...always been and always would have a big place in my heart and memories, thanks Tracy for such wonderfull music and social and political strugle , we who once spoke about revolution and tried it , have still the duty of keep trying, 🖤Tracy Chapman

2022 and this song still hits right

Wow this beauty soul heart oh my god what a great musician

My daughter died suddenly and unexpectedly in 2011. She bought me this CD before she died but I didn’t listen to it until after she died. When I heard this song it really affected me.

Brings me to tears every time.

I never realized how many great songs you wrote. Thank you for your music.

Amo Tracy e suas músicas maravilhosas ❤❤❤. Eita que época boa ! É muito bom recordar ❤🇧🇷

I don't want to start an argument, but this is, like, "Bob Dylan, hold my beer", really. To me, she is the greatest American folk singer songwriter ever. I was never moved by Dylan's songs the way I'm moved by her songs.

The poetry in her words and in her riffs leads me to feel everything she felt while writing her songs.
