Joan Baez - Suzanne
Музыка
Live at Festival des Vieilles Charrues, Carhaix, Bretagne, FRANCE, 2000.
Suzanne was written by Leonard Cohen, first as a poem in 1966. Joan often covers that song.
IF YOU LIKE JOAN BAEZ'S MUSIC, PLEASE BUY IT :)
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.
And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.

Joan is a gift that God has given to mankind. Yet I'm unsure if mankind really deserved that.

Beyonce. Madonna , Taylor Swift, they are but cheap echoes of a time long past. This song by Ms. Baez in an informal setting far surpasses any Super Bowl Halftime show they could ever possibly do Her gentle strumming, her astounding voice, transports me into a heaven I never thought I could know.

@David-Once nope. I'm looking for sporting excellence. Obviously the half time show is going to have to be spectacular and appealing to the biggest audience but that doesn't automatically make it mindless or uninteresting. In fact some of the newer artists embrace showmanship for the event better than some older acts. Some acts can't adjust to the environment.
60 Jahre soziales Engagement mit glasklarer Stimme u. herrlichem Gitarrenspiel, Das ist einmalig auf dieser Welt! Deine Musik begleitet mich schon das ganze Leben. Dir noch ein langes gesundes Leben. Danke Joan Baez!!!

The mournful sadness of this song has haunted me for nearly a half century. When Suzanne left me I was haunted by these lyrics, which all seemed to describe her & the emptiness of her memory which was all I had left of our time together. I thought I had to have her back or I could never be happy again, which I learned wasn't true with the passage of time. After several years I met another and then another and eventually fell in love and married. But even though I have felt happiness for much of my life this mournful tune still to this moment takes me back to that moment Suzanne left so long ago, and I am reminded of what it is like to lose myself completely in another person. Suzanne died at least five years ago, and I received an e mail announcement of a celebration of here life. I could not bring myself to attend. I regret that. No need to tell me how powerfui words & a tune can be. I wish you all the happiness I have felt in my life. I think it only becomes known to a person who also experiences profound sadness. M
Her voice is just as Angelic as when she was younger.

Still among the best of ALL time! What could be better than Joan and a Leonard Cohen classic? Superb!
Persona .. eccezionale .. nella voce , nel cuore e nel .. pensiero !
I've been a Leonard fan since I was 12, I'm 65. I've watched and listened to his interviews and he liked other artists covering his music. Joan Baez is from the same time and same projection, stories in the form of song. A beautiful cover. I grew up in a great time for music.

Joan, in common with Judy Collins, has a tallent for making other people's songs her own.
I agree with BurnHep7, I grew up in the small town with Joanie...there were a pack of us girls who loved her music and sometimes she would call up one of us and sing to us on the phone...also, she always sang at the local diner when not on tour and kept the whole town enthralled...even flocks of birds would stop flying around and stop in! Although she was incredibly good looking..she was quite modest too....there is no one like her...still.
Sincere and beautiful, what a voice, what a great woman ...

Her deliverance and singing on this song is heavenly.

Une voix merveilleuse j'adore 💓💓💓 💓💓
To me she will always sing this song. Others will cover her. She , with her uttermost sensibility , rare heart, mind and soul, knew from the begining to choose and honor gems like ones from Leonard Cohen. Two great talents, gigant human beings, JOAN BAEZ e LEONARD COHEN . God bless you both forever. Rest in peace, Leonard Cohen . May we deserve Joan Baez with us through the dark and hard times to come. Thank you so much, Céline Allais for your sharing.

No comment that I can add would do justice to the beauty and soulfulness of Joan Baez's music. Her music takes me back to a time when there was so much more hope in the world than we find today.

One pure artist, and a multitude hushed.
Leonard and Joan... both legends. What a classic song and voice, and Leonard did a decent job of it too. So chuffed I’ve seen them both live several times. RIP Leonard.
I was there attending this wonderful concert in carhaix (brittany). It was a few days after my 20th birthday. Such an amazing moment ! Time goes by so quickly :/
She sings it just as good as Judy Collins.
Absolutely sung perfect. Beautiful

I am Brazilian and went to Brussels last May only to see her, a dream that came true 42 years after I heard her for the first time on a k7 tape. I didn't even know if she was young or old, or how she would look like. But I was 18 and fell in love with her. And not only for her voice and her music, but I recognized immediately, with no doubt, a real gem, a rare human being, even though at that time I did not kown anything about her. Since then my admiration, respect, and love for this boddhisattva named Joan Baez become stronger and deeper. She helps me, with her example, to wake up every morning with the self commitment to try to be a better human being, and try to keep faith in humanity. God bless Joan Baez forever.
My sincere apologies sister Joan. Thank you fpr singing to our hearts. 22 stressed out times around the sun. Burned out.
so beatuiful song and performance thanks
Bonica historia d´amor. Una altra dona. teresa.
Goosebumps! Gawd she is aging beautifully!!
I hope Leonard heard that. I believe he would've loved it.
Joan Baez has a beautiful voice.
Un très grand chanté par une très grande. La vie n’est pas complètement désespérante… Thank you both…
Excellent ! On reconnaît la voix et l'interprétration de Joan Baez, comme celle de Judy Collins, dès les premières notes ! Comme j'aime beaucoup les deux, si différentes, pas de problème ! Merci beaucoup ! 5 étoiles.
