You're Everything

from Obrigada by Alison Crockett

about

The thing about all of these songs, however, is that they all follow the opening “You’re Everything,” which means that all expectations have been dashed away by the time they come up. Crockett begins on a flowing ballad, her multi-tracked harmonies floating over the gentle lilt of Silviera’s piano, then inevitably kicks up a notch—not into bossa, but into low-key funk. Then it kicks up another notch, and Crockett’s soul chops roar forth like a lion on the bridge: “Days are so much fun/ For those who know in love all life’s a game.” Silviera solos again while Crocket whispers to herself in multi-track counterpoint, then she scats over a live-wire funk breakdown.

I have always loved this song. It's really a powerhouse Chick Corea tune that always made me want to dance. I wanted to do something so people didn't just see it as a hard song that has a lot of chords but a fun, airy and breezy tune that you can just enjoy without getting caught up with how "hip" it is.

Alison Crockett in Brasilien. Von dort aus schickt sie uns ihre Dynamo-Variante der Chick Corea Nummer „You’re Everything“, inkl. des in heimischer Umgebung eingespielten Umgebung. Soul und Jazz und Bossa – ordentlich verquirlt und mit großem Schwung-Spaß an der Sache in animierenden Sound-Optimismus verwandelt. Piano, Bass und Schlagzeug machen ordentlich Alarm, Alison und ihre Töchter, greifen die Beatz auf und drehen ihre aufgedrehten Runden. Alles, und noch viel mehr, zu finden auf ihrer 2018er EP „Obrigada“
Sonic Soul

lyrics

Lyrics

In my life nothing seems so right
as to be with you
And when I'm with you I always sing
You're everything
And as time goes by floating like a bird am I
Even songbirds I know all sing
You're everything

Oh days are so much fun
For those who know that in love all life's a game
And as we go dancing through the sun
In love

And as time goes by floating like a bird am I
Even songbirds I know all sing
You're everything
