Title: Janis Ian – From Me To You (Live in Bremen 2004) Format: 2 CD Label: Proper Barcode: 885513034229
Release date: May 30th 2025
Breathtaking live performance on October 4, 2004, recorded at the “Sendesaal” in Bremen (Germany) by Radio Bremen – fun fact: Janis Ian was the first musical guest on the legendary US sketch comedy “Saturday Night Live” which celebrated their 50th anniversary this year!. When you think of American singer-songwriters, you inevitably think of artists like Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Melanie or Tracy Chapman. But don’t forget Janis Ian. After all, she is a two-time Grammy winner. “Between the Lines” (1975), her second album for Columbia Records, was number one on the US Billboard album charts for weeks, spent a total of 64 weeks on the charts and went platinum. The foundation of her unprecedented career was laid in 1967 with her single “Society’s Child”, a very controversial song about an interracial love that was not tolerated by parents and the community. Janis hit the nail on the head with her lyrics, which echoed the themes of the girl groups that were popular at the time: A girl falls in love, parents and society are against it. Society’s Girl” was covered several times, among others by Spooky Tooth, Judy Stone and Foreigner’s Lou Gramm.
