Maybe I'm way behind the news, but this just hit my ears and my heart was filled with a beautiful rendition of Just Breathe.

Check it out on YouTube.

Very behind and it made me want to vomit through my ears.
Will myself to find a home, a home within myself.
We will find our way, we will find our place.

Now what we have to understand is that this comes from an extremely clever and skillful program, that has manipulated us into ways of thinking that may be contrary to our own interests, but beneficial to the interests of the powers that be... beneficial to the interests of those who control our lives, and tax us until we have hardly a penny left to spend, take our money, and plough it into the creation of huge, armed bureaucracies, which exist to oppress us. We live in a society today where we may not make decisions, to explore our own consciousness. If I am not sovereign over my own consciousness, then I am sovereign over nothing.

Reminds me of Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt. The originals are great but the covers...painful

It sounds bad to me, too rigid sounding, too controlled sounding and sounds lacking emotion. I also don't like that Willie did it with his son. Would rather just hear Willie as usual. :mrgreen:

I have listened to this a few times now and I have to say that it is definitely not for me!

IMO this version has been overworked. It sounds far too busy and 'clanky' for my ears :(

I also feel that the song needs a deep voice to carry the weight of the lyrics-just saying.
