      ​@@arresthillary9502You sound like a very bitter person. He was very good, and his boss and family created a wonderful opportunity for him. He did say that he doesn't mind failing and that what's important for him is reaching for the stars. Boundaries among loved ones aren't always good.

      Unfortunately it was probably staged. I’ve seen UA-cam channels talk about their experience auditioning for the Voice and having to switch songs midway through or have them make up drama. Now this isn’t the Voice U.S. so it might be real but who really knows. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @TieLikesRainbows
      @TieLikesRainbows 10 місяців тому +8

      As a Belgian, I think that's also because English (in most cases) is not our first language and those swearwords don't have as much weight and meaning when used in sentences than if we were to say the same words in our own tongue.

    • @beadmore
      @beadmore 10 місяців тому +7

      Yes, Dylan wrote it and Hendrix was a master at playing the guitar and singing the lyrics. I was a young teenager when he released this song. Vietnam was a scary reality in every household with young teen sons. The government did not hide the number of coffins that rolled out of the big cargo planes. New soldiers flew in and many times the same young men flew out in boxes. Now they hide the casualties from the American public so we don't always know our loses. My interpretation of this song is about the watch towers that US GI'S built in order to watch "charlie", or North Vietnamese soldiers as they traveled by dirt tunnels to ambush US troops. Many young men died trying to stay alive. Many were tortured and killed. My older brother was drafted and choose the marines as his service. He narrowly missed Vietnam and was trained to be a marine security guard for Nixon and Kissinger during their visits to Hondura and Guatemala. When my brother returned to the States he was so happy.

    I literally didn't recognize the song at all, I guess that's a good thing? He made it his own. He has a very unique stunning voice. I would be interested to hear another cover from him to see if I can tell the original song without being told. I think it's really hard to cover songs everyone knows cuz you expect it to sound a certain way, so when someone comes along and totally changes how a song sounds it completely changes the song, makes it new again in a way. That is very hard to do and not something you see often.
