You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

Like any other teenager, I used to love Miley Cyrus. Back in  high school,  I enjoyed watching Disney Channel sitcoms,including Hannah Montana. I found myself listening to Miley's voice singing its OST,like "best of both worlds" or "if we were a movie" over and over again.

Time goes by.. I outgrew from listening to her. Why? Mostly because she doesn't sound that good anymore. Look, I get it that she wanted to let go her "Disney good girl" image, she wanted to be recognize as her not Hannah Montana, so she did some experiments. And I have to admit,that she's a talented song-writer.But, it lacks of voice improvements.

 For me, the only songs that made her enjoyable to be listened to are  "7 Things", "The Climb" and "Butterfly Fly Away". Other than that, she sounded like either too shrill or screaming all the time. Even in her song "When I Look At You" which was supposed to be epic and sweet, all I can hear is desperate girl screaming, despite how good the lyrics was. Sorry,just saying.

Today, I just found out that she's doing cover in honoring Bob Dylan.(Hahaha,telat ya? Ya maaf. Udah lama enggak ngikutin sih XD) With Johnzo West, she's singing

"You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go".

I have to thank whoever asked her doing cover for this song! How she sounded in this song is the reason why I loved her way back when. Serak-serak basah,tapi masih terkontrol sehingga enak buat didenger. I hope she keeps doing this genre. It suits her voice more. Yah at least di tiap album ada lagu yang begini lah.



Please enjoy

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

and tell me what you think. :)

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

I’ve seen love go by my door
It’s never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
Been shooting in the dark too long
When somethin’s not right it’s wrong
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Dragon clouds so high above
I’ve only known careless love
It’s always hit me from below
This time around it’s more correct
Right on target, so direct
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Purple clover, Queen Anne’s Lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you don’t know
Can’t remember what I was thinkin’ of
You might be spoilin’ me too much, love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Flowers on the hillside, bloomin’ crazy
Crickets talkin’ back and forth in rhyme
Blue river runnin’ slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever and never realize the time
Situations have ended sad
Relationships have all been bad
Mine’ve been like Verlaine’s and Rimbaud
But there’s no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Yer gonna make me wonder what I’m doin’
Stayin’ far behind without you
Yer gonna make me wonder what I’m sayin’
Yer gonna make me give myself a good talkin’ to
I’ll look for you in old Honolulu
San Francisco, Ashtabula
Yer gonna have to leave me now, I know
But I’ll see you in the sky above
In the tall grass, in the ones I love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
