i hate to be that guy, but i kinda hate it... I hope it has more piano in the recorded version...

agreed

hate the song??? really? thats a strong word. i mean, you can not like it, but hate? id would love some piano too ofcourse, its what she does best afterall and im sure that the recorded version will have some but if not, i seriously wouldn't mind. It's kind of unfair not liking a song cause its "pianoless" ;D

I don't see how anyone can hate this song! Even without any piano, I really like it!   ;D
I would like some piano in the studio version though, but I do like the guitar.


Hate: meaning I have a passionate dislike for this song. This is the first of her songs that I don't immediately connect with, I even connected to MAKELOVETOME when IRV played it for me an Gishy. I mean I would rather listen to Nichole337 than this song.

The reason i dislike it is NOT because it is pianoless... but given the choice I enjoy her piano playing more than her singing alone, together it is great. I don't like the song in this format it feels empty and I am sure this is one that just may sound better recorded than live.
Peace

I also used hate two times in my first post, I really hope you are OK with that.

I think it's
"Is wisdom seeing patterns on the gloom? -- That rope around you"

I think the lyrics are....and only because she's already making pattern references are:

Is wisdom seeing patterns on a loom that wrap around you
You weave the colors when I saw you..

ooo I like.  A loom is something you weave blankets/cloth with.  At least that is what I think of.  Like Indians and old timey ways of sewing.

Having heard the new recording of Get Good, could it be "Is wisdom seeing patterns on a rune?"

Wow! That's so Celtic! Besides, 'patterns' would make sense on a 'rune.'

Sounds like "Oh it's been so long, so powder soft, serene"


Based off the itunes and Amazon snippets:
…moonlight
Or have you lost your constellation eyes
Well, you could give it time
I wish I could be there, wish I could make it right

Don't you worry, you'll soon be on the mend
And that's no trick, that flicker (fleck?) of radiance
And you'll feel lucky, darling, I'm sure of it
You'll figure it out and get good again

Na na na…

Stone wall, running, hills of green
Golden dust and dandelion scene (sea?)
The powder soft, serene
Oh it's been so long
Since powder soft, serene
Yeah, it's been so long

But don't you worry, you'll soon be on the mend
And that's no trick, that flicker (fleck?) of radiance
And you'll feel lucky, darling, I promise you this
You'll figure it out and get good again

Na na na…

You said you don't know why you don't feel free
No it's not true but I know what you mean…
