14 years ago i first heard her... on a warm summer day... instantly wowed me with her voice... a beautiful person a beautiful voice followed her ever since...
I listen this song since I was 16.... Now I'm 24 and I still love it... It feels like I'm on the grassland with an orange sky above me when I listen it
This song is so beautiful and peaceful! I can't believe she never released it on a later album. I've showed it to several other people and nobody I've ever met has done anything but absolutely love it!
if you werent aware this was a demo meant for her first album Rinse (which became BNN), most of the songs off of her pitch demo CD have made their way online apart from a few which havent like the demo of Sway
I personally find her voice unique and enchanting. It only seems to add to the complexity and deep meaning to her breath taking music. She and her music simply captivate me.
LYRICS: Mother may I lay my head down What would you say? If all that's lost may never be found It's gone away I never thought it would be me Held so high, fell so far Mother may I lay my head down? I'm a falling star Superhero, won't you come and take me away? Superhero, won't you come and save my day? If I could have faked, oh It would have shown And if I ever could have made it Would I be gold? And I never wanted to be what they even want me to be And this story ends untained Without me Superhero, won't you come and take me away? Superhero, won't you come and fly me away? Superhero, superhero Superhero, won't you come to save my day? Won't you, Won't you, Won't you take me home? Won't you, Won't you, Won't you take me home? Won't you, Won't you, Won't you take Won't you come and take me? Won't you come rescue me? Won't you come and take me? Hero, Hero, Hero Won't you take me home? Superhero, won't you come and take me away? Superhero, won't you come and fly me away? Superhero, superhero, Oh my hero, Oh my hero! Superhero, won't you come save my... Mother may I lay my head down? What would you say? If all that's lost may never be found It's gone away I never thought it would be me Held so high, fell so hard Mother may I lay my head down?
I was six when vanessa's first album came out, and i started listening to her music. she has been my inspiration for music ever since, and she is my idol. i truly hope to one day become like her.
as an October baby I love that eerie hook. When She gets deep and eerie with it I love it so much just like in Pretty Baby at around 2:15 it takes that eerie turn and its just deep water. Its so good.
Love the intimacy of this song; takes me back to moody summer evenings when it's balmy and the sun is that fierce orange it gets before it starts to sink...beautiful yet somehow stingingly lonely.
guys, quit like... doing the "thumbs down" for the "i don't like her voice" comments. it's pretty immature how you don't allow people to state their opinion. but yeah, VANESSA HAS AN AMAZINGG VOICE. she's gonna win american idol.
Out of all her magnificent songs, this is my favourite... I'm glad I found it; it's not that popular among her others. Oh, and ROTR is so inspirational. VC FTW, forever and always.
I want to just buy a good-quality camera already so that i can finally upload covers of the beautiful vanessa carlton songs that i've been practicing how to play for 2 years!! including this one and some of her unreleased demo ones because they're so awesome but not really popular so people can learn how to play her songs more easily than by ear like i had to lol really long sentence
i love vanessa carlton and missed her music last summer, but then found out she was making another album. Did you know she released her new album last october? she's back! :) It's called Heroes & Theives, i bought it and love it!
Vanessa, you are what all decent songsingers should be you are classy and artful. I watched you spellbound when you played in ottawa. and you huged me too. my touch of greatness
The difference between a self made artist and a "mold of the industry" is that she has the freedom of her music. She is one of those artists who will start strong, will disappear an go thru metamorphosis, and come back with the album they always wanted to produce with full transparency into soul making the album the most honest product they can create. Nasir Olu Dara Jones is a prime example along with The Beatles. Bottom line you cant just throw these artists into catergorized boxes, its art..
i LOVEE this song! I really wish it was released, makes me mad that I can't get a copy of this song. I think it's a very pretty song and has a happy mood to it during the chorus.
Its a shame that talent like this barely goes recognized, when shit like "I wanna make love right now" is played on the radio all the time. This is pure talent, true words, piano, real instrumentals, AND NO AUTO TUNING! Shocker...
eh ,woops i meant to give a thumps up =/..sorry about that anyway ,that's SO true! her lyrics are amazing for EVERY song. i just discovered her songs TODAY!
thats true but some people go to far by just going on the video and swearing and calling people names whoever likes the song, but ur so right thanks for pointing that out
Vanessa is extremely talented and it really is a shame she isn't popular I personally like Lady Gaga a lot and this is not meant to put her down but you can't get a glimpse of who Lady Gaga really is in her song she is talented and a great performer but there is nothing else there. Vanessa on the other hand has a personality and it shines through her lyrics and she delivers them perfectly.
I think she did decide to put all of her unreleased songs onto an album for release sometime in the future. I think an EP album for her would be genious!
this video has over a quarter million views? AND it's an unreleased Vanessa Carlton song? I must say, I'm in shock. Although this deserves far more views, I'm surprised it's gotten this much. Hooray for new Nessaholic recruits! =D
congrats m8! yes, you, GregorSamsa1987! i have been waiting for ur video to reach a million views! WOOOHOOOOO VANESSAAAAA seriously, i reckon this song should've been in nessa's "Be Not Nobody" album. lol. it should sooo have replaced "rinse".
Hi...Well she allready have 3 albuns They are Be not nobody,Harmonium and now Heroes and Thieves but she also have a demo tape from when she was younger like 17 years old.
@redbull395 i kno your comment is old but i had to reply cuz its just so true... and its cool that you named a book character after her (: r u publishing it?
@redbull395 wow you finished it? how long is the book? im working on one of my own but its far from finished, lol. my problem is making a good firm base for the story :/ lol! anyway hopefully youll fix up your book soon cuz id love to read it (:
Sis~T.T its true ... u dont here on the radio much except thousand miles really... i love her her songs way better than any other singer out there! no offence to my brother though >.>

@drebosyche I agree with you that there are many singers that can´t sing in our opinion ... but i think if Vanessa really wanted to be famous and this would´ve been her main thought she would have "sexed up" and would´ve done the things that the managers said BUT she wanted to be herself and publish HER music... thumbs up for that PS: Britney has a voice and also very nice songs but they won´t be published because its not her image... (e.g. Let go unreleased)
14 years ago i first heard her... on a warm summer day... instantly wowed me with her voice... a beautiful person a beautiful voice followed her ever since...
I listen this song since I was 16.... Now I'm 24 and I still love it... It feels like I'm on the grassland with an orange sky above me when I listen it
Raden Wisnu i agree. this song is very nostalgic... I first hear this song when i was 18 and now I'm 27. I miss Vanessa Carlton.
crazy how you commented this at 24 and we are now 33 or 34 years old.
youtube is a time capsule
@@cIeetz yes I'm 33 now 😁
Oh my God too bad this song is not on Spotify
I used to be so addicted to it, I love it so much.
This song is so beautiful and peaceful! I can't believe she never released it on a later album. I've showed it to several other people and nobody I've ever met has done anything but absolutely love it!
This song is beautiful! It should've been released. It definitely fits into the "Be Not Nobody" batch of songs.
if you werent aware this was a demo meant for her first album Rinse (which became BNN), most of the songs off of her pitch demo CD have made their way online apart from a few which havent like the demo of Sway
I personally find her voice unique and enchanting. It only seems to add to the complexity and deep meaning to her breath taking music.
She and her music simply captivate me.
If only we could get a chance to get the song for the reasons why SUPER HERO didn't make the kutt. Greatly pieced together keep with it thaxs!
Whose still here in 2020?! 👌🏾💯
This song is so beautiful. It brings back memories, not sure what memories but it has that feeling. Makes me feel so peaceful ❤
She is fantastic, a real artist, a real musician, and a real composer / songwriter.
10/10.
LYRICS:
Mother may I lay my head down
What would you say?
If all that's lost may never be found
It's gone away
I never thought it would be me
Held so high, fell so far
Mother may I lay my head down?
I'm a falling star
Superhero, won't you come and take me away?
Superhero, won't you come and save my day?
If I could have faked, oh
It would have shown
And if I ever could have made it
Would I be gold?
And I never wanted to be what they even want me to be
And this story ends untained
Without me
Superhero, won't you come and take me away?
Superhero, won't you come and fly me away?
Superhero, superhero
Superhero, won't you come to save my day?
Won't you, Won't you, Won't you take me home?
Won't you, Won't you, Won't you take me home?
Won't you, Won't you, Won't you take
Won't you come and take me?
Won't you come rescue me?
Won't you come and take me?
Hero, Hero, Hero
Won't you take me home?
Superhero, won't you come and take me away?
Superhero, won't you come and fly me away?
Superhero, superhero, Oh my hero, Oh my hero!
Superhero, won't you come save my...
Mother may I lay my head down?
What would you say?
If all that's lost may never be found
It's gone away
I never thought it would be me
Held so high, fell so hard
Mother may I lay my head down?
I have a feeling the greatest music ever made also was never released for public consumption.
Can Vanessa be ever more perfect? I adore the lyrics and piano in this song. I wonder if she's gonna release a fourth album...
I was six when vanessa's first album came out, and i started listening to her music. she has been my inspiration for music ever since, and she is my idol. i truly hope to one day become like her.
Innocent looks and equally fresh and innocent voice. Love her thousand miles song, especially the piano tune is mesmerising.
as an October baby I love that eerie hook. When She gets deep and eerie with it I love it so much just like in Pretty Baby at around 2:15 it takes that eerie turn and its just deep water. Its so good.
Love the intimacy of this song; takes me back to moody summer evenings when it's balmy and the sun is that fierce orange it gets before it starts to sink...beautiful yet somehow stingingly lonely.

she's gonna win american idol.
Vanessa Carlton is the best singer ever.
Out of all her magnificent songs, this is my favourite... I'm glad I found it; it's not that popular among her others.

vanessa has been my favorite hero (or is it heroine? ) for years now, she has a voice to die for . love it!
i love vanessa carlton and missed her music last summer, but then found out she was making another album. Did you know she released her new album last october? she's back! :) It's called Heroes & Theives, i bought it and love it!
i don't understand how this didn't make it on the album. It's great.
Vanessa, you are what all decent songsingers should be
you are classy and artful. I watched you spellbound when you played in ottawa. and you huged me too. my touch of greatness

Just a goddess. Her music is amazing beyond words. Her artistry is just ugh simply amazing. Vanessaholic
i LOVEE this song! I really wish it was released, makes me mad that I can't get a copy of this song. I think it's a very pretty song and has a happy mood to it during the chorus.
How did this song not make the make it at least it should be one of her singles
better than as i know last time...so very nice..i love her..``
YES!! I really hope that makes it to the next album. It would be a good single!
"The Magical thinkin gets us by!"
Its a shame that talent like this barely goes recognized, when shit like "I wanna make love right now" is played on the radio all the time.
This is pure talent, true words, piano, real instrumentals, AND NO AUTO TUNING! Shocker...
i wish she would make music i really lik her and her music its really good and it makesme happy and excited and calm all at the same time :)
I love her... All her songs, she's my favorite artist ever !
eh ,woops i meant to give a thumps up =/..sorry about that

Chills...i did not know about this song...what a waste
downloading already on my cell : D
i love this song!
This is a great song, love Vanessa.
its such a damn shame that talent like hers is hardly recognized, and yet they have some song with less than zero talent on the radio all the time. :S
I love the song and the picture is soooooo pretty ^^
when you say it, i'm kind of pissed too.
she deserves more notice. she's fantastic!!
I used to not like this song very much but now I love it for some reason.
Vanessa is extremely talented and it really is a shame she isn't popular I personally like Lady Gaga a lot and this is not meant to put her down but you can't get a glimpse of who Lady Gaga really is in her song she is talented and a great performer but there is nothing else there. Vanessa on the other hand has a personality and it shines through her lyrics and she delivers them perfectly.
My favorite singer . I love U Vanessa Carlton
I love this song!
lets get vanessa to one million views!!!!
love thisss sonng, its amazinng, i absolutley adore itt.

"Fair Weather Freinds" by Vanessa Carlton.
She only performed it live. You can find it hear on UA-cam. It's a new song.
Thanks!

I think she did decide to put all of her unreleased songs onto an album for release sometime in the future. I think an EP album for her would be genious!

Miley Cirus does not make music, but merchandising... THIS IS REAL MUSIC!
From Brazil :)
and the picture is very pretty

Good one!
shit, why haven't i looked into her music before!?!?!?!?
Dammit, fuck and bugger, i always get into these people late, i'm a fool.
she's amazing!
What the heck? Every Vannessa Carlton song I've looked up on youtube has some argument going on in the comments. Sheesh world peace yo! =)
