Just, please, enjoy. Life gives us so few perfect moments. I’m not even cranky with Luke Combs anymore because his cover gave us this. Here is Tracy Chapman returning to the Grammy stage where she won Best New Artist 35 years ago to receive the undying adulation she so richly deserved but has always been so reluctant to seek. Not only is her voice still just as stunning, she looks…like there aren’t enough slow whistles in the world. That dimple. That silver streak. Like I said, perfect. Honestly, almost the entire Grammy show was excellent. But today isn’t about that. That’s for tomorrow. Today is to just, please, enjoy. Happy Monday, kittens.

ReplyDeleteI was hoping you’d have this — thank you!
ReplyDeleteLOVE her…this brought it all back.
ReplyDeleteAMEN!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIf you go back and watch her first performance of this at the Grammy awards, she is also wearing a black shirt, sleeves rolled, and blue jeans. I love that she chose to repeat the outfit. The voice, her smile, all the same. The only change was her inflection where she sang "have nothing to prove". She was the embodiment of a personal secure in their own skin in that moment. i can't stop watching...
ReplyDeleteYes, thank you Luke Combs for helping to bring us this moment.
ReplyDeleteThe ladies were sensational last night. not just Tracy, but also Miley, Annie Lennox, and Joni Mitchell. Best Grammys in years!
Cried like a baby as soon as the camera panned up and that sweet smile made it's first appearance when the crowd went bananas and kept right on crying for the full 5:20.....phew. I said the same thing the only sign that dear woman has aged a day is the gorgeous gray streak in her dreads. Voice, smile, style, face all the exact same. I've watched it no fewer than 40 times :)
