    Lyrics:
    Anyone who's ever had a heart
    Wouldn't turn around and break it
    And anyone who's ever played a part
    Wouldn't turn around and hate it
    Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
    Sweet, sweet Jane
    You're waiting for Jimmy down in the alley
    Waiting there for him to come back home
    Waiting down on the corner
    And thinking of ways to get back home
    Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
    Sweet, sweet Jane
    Anyone who's ever had a dream
    Anyone who's ever played a part
    Anyone who's ever been lonely
    And anyone who's ever split apart
    Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
    Sweet, sweet Jane
    Heavenly wine and roses
    Seem to whisper to me when you smile
    Heavenly wine and roses
    Seem to whisper to me when you smile
    La la la la, la la la...
    Sweet Jane
    Sweet, sweet Jane

    Had this track on a cassette tape back in Highschool in the 90s. Used to cruz around late at night driving my 1986 Fiero GT, letting my mind wander and contemplating my exit strategy out of the only town I had ever known. Now I would do anything to break back into that youthful existence…back to that same time and place…

    I was at a summer concert in Winter Park CO and I was walking around with a cool Cowboy Junkies T-shirt (brown t-shirt with big white block letters that said: COWBOY JUNKIES) on and a woman said "All right, a Cowboy Junkies fan." I turned around and I realized it was Margo the singer from Cowboy Junkies. I was like: "I am totally a Cowboy Junkies fan."
    She was happy that I knew who the band was because they were just getting national attention. She was just so casually naturally beautiful and friendly. I felt so good just standing next to her talking with her. And later on when the band took the stage they were most excellent.

      True, tho one car try: Real? Visceral? Ethereal? Soulful, graceful to a point of tears while maintaining composure by the same qualities? The more I've listened to them, the more I'm able to appreciate the beauty & greatness of these individuals through the brilliance of their bittersweet music. Perhaps what makes them so appealing & relatable to some is their music seems born of their own unique experience & struggle with life's familiar abyss of pain, human imperfection, frailty, & constant trial, which they've, nonetheless, overcome via sheer determination & will to succeed with the resulting extraordinarily blessed, unique artistic expression that is entirely their own. Some can't help but admire, champion the supreme underdog these cats truly are & so faithfully represent.

      Living in a haunted house made me realize that we don't have souls. WE ARE SOULS that travel in bodies like drivers in cars. That's not a joke. It was real.
      A foot on the gas pedal and a full tank of gas are a combination of motivation and ambition. Your tank is nearly empty but it will get refilled.

      I know this song from the film, Natural Born Killers. I grew up to this film, (don't judge me) is incredibly surreal and abstract. Written by Tarantino, actually about the mass murderer Starkweather and his girlfriend. Quentin has secretly been obsessed with this story(knowing the story and knowing his films will make that evident), but is also the first time woody Harrelson played a dark role. The reason the director picked woody is because of woody's past; the fact he grew up being raised by a father who made his money by being a hitman. Imagine that. The greatest stories are the ones never told... just hinted on by little remarks that go unnoticed. Like gems inside geods that go unbroken for thousands of years.

      I operated the camera for both this video and Fast Car for director Matt Mahurin. Every couple of years I watch this one and it brings me right back to the shoot. Margo is so hauntingly beautiful and has the voice of an angel, and the music is so perfect, subtle yet has such a powerful quiet build. I wish I had access to all of the footage because we did entire takes in close up, slowly dollying as Matt waved a light around to create his signature lighting style...I'd love to see those performances. I've worked thousands of days in this business since then, but that is one day I will never forget.

    There are those songs where the bass stands out above all else. While Timmins voice is outstanding, this is one of those song versions.

    When I went to the hospital to give birth to my first child my husband brought this album of cowboy junkies covers to play for me to help with relaxation since I was being induced and was in for 26 hrs of labor. Best part of my labor was sitting in my room Jacuzzi listening to Sweet Jane.

    90's always had the 60's vibe to me... a touch of hippies and open-minded music going on. The style even reverted to '60s in some instances. Great decades both, had their problems, but oh so much greatness. 50's, 70's and 90's best decades ever. I'm 55 so I was born in 66, so I didn't get to experience the 60's as a young adult like I would have, but I did get to experience the 90's as a twenty-something and it was fucking great!!!
