Uploading to my facebook now, maybe KULP can get it from there.  It seemed the easiest way through my Flip Share.  I could have done it to you tube as well, but I feel like I want to covet this song for us nessaholics...is that selfish?
yay! Make it public so we all can listen? :DD Oh and btw, you can put things private in youtube and just accesible through url too :)

I will try to do this soon! Busy couple of days and weekend ahead of me

Thank you so much Sara for the upload, have just listened to the song now, it is still very much Vanessa sounding I think, can't wait to hear the produced album version.

Is it possible she still wrote the song on the piano, but it was decided they would go with the guitar at the gig?

I doubt it.. I think she probably would have played piano with it if she had piano for it.  I think it sounds really good with just the guitar, but who knows..the studio version could have piano on it.  I'm sure it will sound great either way.

I've been MIA the past few days, but I'm glad to be back.

After hearing Get Good, I am definitely sensing that this will be Vanessa's best album. I really do think so. The song reminds me of Spring with grass blowing on the hills; kind of like the opening scene of the Sound of Music. The album definitely will have a spring theme to it... but I'm not sure if that is something she meant to do.

I also think (and I think have posted elsewhere) that this is going to be a huge album.  I just think the public is more open to hearing different things since it's more of the same all the time out there.  I also think the style/writing is more accessable to people - meaning the content isn't as obscure (so far) as compared to Harmonium.  On one hand, I'd be really excited for her but on the other I'd be a little upset that the secret is out!  I like having her to ourselves so to speak so that the public doesn't defile her!

I agree! It's nice sometimes to not have her be all over.

Can I ask you a favor? Please highlight the changes, if you may. (:

And oh, I already have the video here in my drive. Would anyone want me to put it up somewhere? That is, with the permission from SaraB.

I like the melody, but the lyrics make absolutely NO sense to me. I think I'll like it better once I know what the hell she's saying. If it makes the album, that is.
I waste the days away
Waiting on a new age
But time betrays me
And I get older one more year

Thanks for posting the link and the lyrics transcription. I've been away from these boards for a while.

I am looking forward to hearing new music from Vanessa!

For me it's a glance
And a smile on your face
A touch of your hands
An honest embrace - VC, Home

What does the "Is wisdom seeing patterns on the gloom" line means?

I don't know, but V mentioned that it's about her friend contemplating on what wisdom is.
