Rodriguez - I Wonder
"I wonder about the love you can't find
And I wonder about the loneliness that's mine
I wonder how much going have you got
And I wonder about your friends that are not"
Imagine being a construction worker doing normal construction work and your colleague comes to work with a print out of a website going "hey btw I just found out my music is a huge deal in South Africa but they all thought I was dead" and that's how you find out your colleague's two albums (that you might or might not have known about beforehand) are bigger than Elvis in a foreign country and your colleague gets to fly over there and play sold out concerts and then just returns to his job like nothing ever happened. That's what it must have been like working with Sixto Rodriguez.
God everyone I love deeply like Nina Simone, Jeff Buckley, Nick Drake, Sinead O’ Connor, Jim Morrison, Sixto Rodriquez, Joni Mitchell, Hozier all sing with such passion and emotion and through that wisdom- they use their voices to speak in such a language of such incomparable clarity, that what every man experiences in soul but just simply needed deciphered for them. What once becomes oh so clear. They are angels as much as poets in the manner their truths falls from such a foreign tongue in the way it has never yet been expressed before, but surpasses need for mere words as sung in captive song. Their deep rooted feelings tie to the listener, leave a mark so deep in us and leave us forever changed. Those are my favorite artists of all.
Welcome back! I had followed you back in 2018 when you were mostly inactive, so it's been a pleasant surprise to see you post again! Hope life's treated you well ✨
