This one's just awesome.. i love it and i think it's one of Janis' best songs ever..
But i've been surfing on the wonderful world of the internet and found that this song was performed for the first time by Artie Shaw in 1918. It was originally a jazz-song (as you can see by the rest of the people who have performed it, almost every one of them made a jazz piece of it). From 1918 til 1924 no one else had performed it, but in 1924 Billie Holiday ( and Shelly Manne too) did for the musical 'I got Rhythm' , with the music of George Gershwin. After that there are like 26 pages of people who have performed it, but i've listened a couple of them and i think Janis' version is one of the best.. The guitarsolo and the way her voice sounds, damn! |

I think it's a damn good song, the guitar(solo) just touches me, especially in the chorus when Page hits those high notes; awesome! It has some sort of sensual mood that makes you move. About the meaning; i think you all know what he means, it doesn't need an explanation i think.. |

The original version of this song is from the album 'The above ground sound' from Jake Holmes (released in 1967, 2 years before Jimmy Page did). I've been listening to Jake Holmes' version and I think Led Zeppelin's version is way better, it just takes you in to another world with its deep bass and awesome guitar, i love it! |

I think it's a DAMN cool song..And yeah, there are a lot of versions, almost every liveshow they play it differently. There is also a cd composed with all the solo's from 21th Century Schizoid Man together, so you kinda have an hour long of solo, that also sounds awesome |

Also really like the high kind of sound that keeps coming back, i think it's a guitar. Anyway, i think it's a beautiful song. One of my favourites from the album. |

At first I'd like to say that I think it's cool some people are touched by this song (although I'm not). But I think those people are touched by the sort of 'dragging' style of the song, it's almost like nagging. I don't think the words are a part of the reason why they are moved, and if they are, it's probably just the first two sentences because they are still quite understandable. I think the lyrics haven't got a 'special' meaning and Chris Martins was only trying to look like a mysterious, intellectual artist. I don't like the song and I think the musical part is boring and simple (not that simple songs can't be cool, but this one's just simple on the boring kind of way). All together I think it's a 'nice song' for people who like it, but the lyrics are just nonsense. |
