jackson browne called he wants his song back

[thomazcannizza]

she gave it a new swing...refreshing :D I love the original, but you can't ignore that she is extremely competent when doing versions...

[andyinoregon]

Huge fan of Sheryl Crow's music, but I'm guessing this version works only for someone who has never heard the Jackson Browne original.  I'm going there now to hear Jesse Ed Davis play some of the finest electric guitar ever recorded.

Sheryl...I am your biggest fan, I love it when you RE-MAKE music, , , , you always give it a new sound by doing it YOUR WAY!!! GREAT JOB!!! And after dealing with your breast cancer, it is a perfect song for your battles. Keep Well.

[DancingSpiderman]

I enjoy this 6/8 time version. I LVOE LVOE LVOE the concept of Sheryl Crow.
BangTidy little Rocker Babe. mm mm MM.

I wonder what the Exact Duplicate Cover Aficionados would say if Sheryl's version were the original version, and Jackson Browne were to come out with his cover?

JACKSON BROWN SHERYL U ROCK LADY FER' SURE

[MrDevtun]

Jackson Browne's live rendition of DME is a hard rocking ear candy masterpiece - just fantastic. Not down w/ Crow's interpretation of this amazing tune.

[MoreSherylCrow]

Yes, this song is by Jackson Browne. Please disregard my previous incorrect response :-)

[tapeinosG]

When Browne wrote this, the lyrics were about a guy who tries to get help, but is doomed because it's too late. His record company thought it was too much of a downer, so Browne made it into a story about a guy who has gone through a lot in life and comes to accept his fate.
JACKSON BROWNE
"Doctor My Eyes"
Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long
'Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I've been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where there will
I never noticed them until I got this feeling
That it's later than it seems
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it's too late for me
Doctor, my eyes
Cannot see the sky
Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry

I like artists bringing back the old tunes but she should have left the upbeat tempo as it is. Jackson Browne is rolling his eyes, I betcha.

[LevinaRosa]

wow Ive only ever heard the Jackson 5 verson of this song until now. Never heard it sang like this before. Great version :)

[stargazer]

She did the same thing in a duet with Jackson on "Love Hurts", on YT. Not good, but a great song on Jackson's part.

[MoreSherylCrow]

@rickdangerwood - no, this was during the primaries... well before the general election.

[ROCKSTARCRANE]

I adore Sheryl. She's a monster talent - writer, singer player. But this version of the song is abysmal.

[pcgneurotic]

Was 21st Jan 2009 the date of this show? Looks like her 2008 drummer (don't know his name), so I guess it is.

[j.thomas]

sounds like every band member is on their own time. tough to kill a phenomenal song, but they did. and not in a good way.

is the song his work?



i dont have a squat of her news in my country.
could u be kind to answer me?

[pocobasso]

I like Sheryl... but I don't like her treatment of this great You don't mess with a classic.

[wood_media]

Good try for sure, but not a fan of people messing with the arrangements of classic hits.

[ROADAPPLE]

I didn't know Peter Jackson played drums
