We had the pleasure of seeing him perform Saturday night in Charleston SC. Amazing show. People were dancing in the aisles. This song really touched me.
Joe's genius shining through. To compose this powerful piece is the proof that he's been there and survived it. Dedicated to every soul that feels so low and solo. X
My parents loved this song, so I heard it quite a few times when I was little. Now that I can actually speak English, I remembered the sound of it, so I looked it up, and guess what, I'm crying
I'm not much on videos but this piece is so powerful (as it was at the Charlotte NC show in 11/08) and very emotionally moving that it works in a wierd way. I can't wait to see Joe live again.
"Solo (So Low)" Solo - It isn't a dream So low - It's just what it seems An empty thing Waiting on somebody who never calls Listening In the night to something scratching round behind the walls Solo - With no one to care So low - The cupboards are bare So now to dine On three stale crackers and a fifth of gin And say you're fine Feeling like something that the dog dragged in Oh one has to laugh Still safe and warm With peace of mind After storms Solo - You stare into space So low - Scared to look at your face Scared to find Someone in the mirror who you can't recall Pale and lined Talking to himself and saying fuck 'em all Though one must admit Chances are few To try to be Someone new Though one gets to play With no referee Peace at last Guaranteed
Thing is we ALL need hugs but loads of people don't get it and so want to leave this planet, and I mean PERMANENTLY. So go smile at someone you see alone in a bar or the street. Give even a tiny bit of love and you will be MEGA amazed at the love you get. GO ON SMILE AT SOMEONE YOU DON@T KNOW - you can do it! x x x
Joe Jackson is brilliant! Love this melancholy piece and bravo on the video. I'll be adding your video to an artist profile I am creating for my World United Music blog...

Lijkt als of hij mij begrijpt. En nog met mooie muziek ook.. echt en topper.
Gorgeous.
Love this track! In my opinion the best one from the Rain album - Joe's lyrics dig right into the bone... sheer talent!
Beautiful lyrics and video. Words can't describe...
Thanks for sharing this beautiful imagery.
I love his music
"Solo (So Low)"
Solo - It isn't a dream
So low - It's just what it seems
An empty thing
Waiting on somebody who never calls
Listening
In the night to something scratching round behind the walls
Solo - With no one to care
So low - The cupboards are bare
So now to dine
On three stale crackers and a fifth of gin
And say you're fine
Feeling like something that the dog dragged in
Oh one has to laugh
Still safe and warm
With peace of mind
After storms
Solo - You stare into space
So low - Scared to look at your face
Scared to find
Someone in the mirror who you can't recall
Pale and lined
Talking to himself and saying fuck 'em all
Though one must admit
Chances are few
To try to be
Someone new
Though one gets to play
With no referee
Peace at last
Guaranteed

คนรวยที่ทำตัวไม่รู้จักพอเหมือนคนไม่มีอะไร
one must wonder if this is a commentary on his current emotional state... bereft of any connection to others....so bleak and painful
