What other pop culture song by a woman can you site that is more emotionally expressive, vocally speaking???
This song doesn't just have incredible staying power, it's indeed timeless... it was even ahead if it's time !
What was life like when it was released, shortly after, and now, so long after ?
It could be released today and would strike the same powerful timeless emotional chords, and we've all felt crushed within and can identify see deeply with this song.
I find it incredibly empowering and humbling simultaneously.
I've lived a life of a broken heart, somehow repeatedly...so I identify with this frequency, this depth, this pain, thus hurt, this desperation,...and then the rebound, the growth, the strength, and knowing I survived the journey...again ... because it cycles and really, who doesn't know this deep feeling caught and invoked within this song????
Do you more deeply see the power of music ? It's far more than a chant or a curse, it's a desire to fulfill, an action to follow, it's inspirational.
