Please post a video of your favorite song by a singer-songwriter whose music you admire or who was mentioned previously in the thread.
If you wish, you may also explain why you like a particular song.
I want to learn more about singer-songwriters and their music, but I don't know many of their names or songs, so I'm hoping you can help by sharing your knowledge.
I'll start:
Jackson Browne - "In the Shape of a Heart"
This is the only song I can remember by Jackson Browne off the top of my head. What other songs by Jackson Browne do you like (if any)?
I first heard this song when a boyfriend shared it with me on a tape he had made for me. I felt the song was sweet and sad, although rather cliche since it uses the word "heart" so much, but I didn't know what it was about until today.
I just looked up the song online and learned that "In the Shape of a Heart" may be about Jackson Browne's first wife, Phyllis Major, who killed herself: "Browne was devastated when Phyllis Major committed suicide by consuming an overdose of sleeping pills just a few months after they married, in March 1976, at the age of 30." They had a young son together.
