I know I've said it before, but really I cannot stress it enough just how much I love slow Bluesy Jazz/Soul- hah yeah I made that word up, I really don't know what genre to label this kind of music. But I love it; the intense slowness of emotion and the vintage feel. You know, the kind you can really slow dance closely to and just get lost in. (you know, Billie Holiday, Otis Redding, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong- that kind of stuff) I love that. It is by far, besides classical, my other favorite genre (this genre includes r&b too because it precedes it and borned it- I love love love r&b). I love music of all genres, but classical and bluesy Jazz/Soul are my most favorite. I think I'm an old soul trapped in the wrong era; but I've always wished to be transported to the past because I surely do not fit in here.
I love the light piano repetition of simple chords, the every-present background bass matched with a light drum beat, and the unmistakable sound created and ultimately pulled together by the violin. I love this; it holds a very special and major space in my spirit. It makes up some of my light. I love her slow songs, Etta's has a certain sound, her own sound- the violin and the collective, so put together simplicity that always just works and compliments her strong voice. I'd say this is the romanticist coming out of me that loves this so. I would say her old stuff is the best haha.
