Fire and Rain ( James Taylor 70’s Acoustic Cover Song of Drugs Addiction & Mental Health ß? Stef )
Fire and Rain ( James Taylor 70’s Acoustic Cover Song of Drugs Addiction & Mental Health ß? Stef ) – Here is my cover of James Taylor’s 1969 / 1970 song Fire and Rain of which I have been playing for many years. I have interpreted this video montage the best way I can to echo James Taylor’s experiences that inspired the song lyrics & this includes the death of ‘Susanne’ thru suicide (“Susanne, the plans you made put an end to you”) & then James’s personal experiences of mental institutions, shock treatment (ECT that he called The Fire) & the ‘Rain’ being the cold showers that followed shock treatment. Ultimately all this led to a drug addiction & the personal battle that ensued. I have made a stab in the dark that the ‘telephone line’ could be a Helpline but that’s just an assumption on my part. I wanted to say much more on stress, medications and mental health issues as this is a subject that I can very much relate to and producing this video certainly made me think long and hard about the whole drugs situation with folks around the globe. But I’m not convinced that a guitar channel is the right place for those words and subsequently I took down my candid views blog that I posted here with the upload. But it may reappear here in 2013 dependent on how I feel about voicing such opinions, but also possible viewers views and feedback here too. But do feel free to private pm me on this matter if you wish. Be Fabulous, peace, Stef.
