Deceiving Voices and Stereotypes .. DAM!
 

K .. I am no racist bastard but from the moment I heard this song I kinda imagined a white guy in his 40s .. maybe 50s singing this song ...but today... by pure coincidence... I found out the singer is actually black ... braided hair and all... Name: Tracy Chapman...

Still love the song but dam... surprise! :)



Here is the Video of the actual guy singing it:



...now ... as you were :winkwink:

that's a pretty good song :thumbsup

Awesome when you finally put a face to a voice huh? Especially this one, it's pretty surprising.

Tracy Chapman is a chick. You're getting this all wrong. :P

Hollyshit yo... even more of a shock!... the voice is that of a white 40-50yo dude and this is a chick? .... my whole perception of reality has been thrown into question... I better go cook my digiorno.. and take a nap... will be back once I have finished assimilating this truth...:Oh crap

<--- Loves Tracy Chapman

That song is over 20 years old...an oldie but a goodie! :thumbsup

Here's another song from Tracy Chapman that I like from about ten years ago:



From her newest album (2008) - I love her lyrics, in the grand tradition of folk music, she sings from her heart and tells stories:
