At the time she wrote this song, it was mildly shocking. Thing is, it is honest. And it's also a story maybe about an affair she had. When Nicki Minaj sings, it is only about obtaining prurient interest in her own obsession with lust. I also despise the pimp element in the recording industry that panders to the exploding hormones of twelve year olds. This is the exploitation of youth. It is nothing but childishness and nothing can be learned from it.
"...Love my loving Love is surely Gospel" Thank you Laura for teaching us that fact so many years ago!!! "...and only now am I a virgin, I CONFESS!!!" R I P dear child of us all!
If you want to know how to love a woman, Laura here, has just given you all the information you need to understand a real woman, right here n this song.
She is easily the greatest female artist I have ever heard...god bless you Laura Nyro, and thank you for your music..it affected my life, and my friends...
you were and are a true genius...and I was once lucky enough to see you live...and I have never , ever gotten over you.....kiss....
I definitely hear Joan Armatrading and Joan Baez - Joni Mitchell, of course...
She's a raw talent, throwing out weapons of choice - she's not afraid to let it all out, and knows when to do it.
...Tori Amos - even a hint of Ani DiFranco
this song when it came out in 1968 was totally taboo. I love Laura Nyro she was the most audascious Goddess woman ever. No one can touch her.Contemporary of Joni Mitchell.
We all owe a debt to her unflinching high diving artistry.
I was 20 when I first heard this earthy celestial song, before it was generally released. I found it sitting in a stack of demos from the record company. I was a lucky kid, because my dad owned a chain of record stores. The album cover and title puzzled me at first. What kind of music was this, with its biblical and religious references? Then I recalled her songs covered by groups like The 5th Dimension and Blood Sweat and Tears. (I always pay attention to who writes the songs. Not everyone has the pipes to sing their material.) So let's give it a spin. I was blown away that first magical time, but I couldn't understand why when I played the album, that there was always this exotic scent in the air. It was no hallucination. She had purposefully scented the paper insert for each album.
But it's the last song this collection that does you in. In less than 3 minutes she has invited you into her heart and soul. For me this was one of the first rare moments when a woman revealed in song the mystery of her identity and sexuality, leaving a half-formed man-child in awe.
(On a side note, if you are a choreographer, see what you can create with Captain for Dark Mornings. Take the leap. I dare you.)
Great song from Laura's most fun album. "Eli" is legendary, it's her Sgt Pepper. Her vivid imagination really goes wild on this record, and she takes the listener on a non stop thrill ride. I dig the later, heavier message stuff by her as well, but this album will always be my fave, it's young Laura at her most imaginative, and a pure joy to listen to all the way though!
Billy Childs remastered some of her songs with various female artists, a CD worth buying. This song is on it, sung by Becca Stevens. Laura Nyro was just amazing.
Hmm. Thanks so much for the lyrics. I always heard: Mama, it's my pain; not: No, no it's not pain. Anyone? Never saw her live, albums were lost while moving cross-cunt-tree. Thanks so much for posting.
Coming up on my 20th birthday soon. Amazed at this intense woman. I've had some rough times but I feel like I haven't achieved a third of the soul or maturity she displayed at the same age... what is it that makes a woman like her so special? What gave her that spirit?
