Elle 121,279 Posted March 19, 2021 [Zella Day] I slept last night in a good hotel I went shopping today for jewels The wind rushed around in the dirty town & the children let out from the schools I was standing on a noisy corner Waiting for the walking green Across the street he stood & he played real good On his clarinet for free [Lana Del Rey] Now me, I play for fortunes & those velvet curtain calls I got a black Limousine and two gentlemen Who escort me through these halls & I'll play if you got the money Or if you're a friend to me But the one man band By the quick lunch stand He was playing real good for free [Weyes Blood] Nobody stopped to hear him Though he played so sweet and high They knew he had never been on their TV So they passed his music by I meant to go over and ask for a song Maybe put on a harmony I heard his refrain As the signal changed He was playing real good for free 1 Quote • 4.18.14 • 5.1.14 • 9.20.14 • 5.28.15 • 6.14.15 • 7.28.16 • 7.24.17 • 10.23.17 • 10.24.17 • 1.25.18 • 2.5.18 • 12.5.18 • 10.3.19 • 10.11.19 • 11.16.19 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bonita 12,531 Posted August 11, 2021 The way y'all pay this cover dust so before the album released I used to listen to the original version of "For Free" since Lana performed it live at the concert I went to and ever since then I was skeptical as to how Lana would include it on the album (and she had turned it into a trio version from the Hollywood Ball). I used to listen to Joni's version religiously and after Chemtrails I didn't go back to the original until a few days ago and I must say: Lana outdid Joni. Dividing the verses to three singers makes so much sense and if anything it's a testament to her genius and how she always ALWAYS brings something new to her renditions of songs. Stop paying this song dust it's literally amazing I know Joni is proud of her. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
