37 Days
I downloaded the new Beth Hart cd, I saw a download and I just needed to hear it I couldn’t wait anymore! I am still going to buy the cd of course but I am so overly happy that I am already listening to it.
I listened to the cd three, scratch that at least 7 times now in the past two days, and wow I love it what more can I say! This woman blows me away each and every time. I can’t wait till she is back in the Netherlands to give some shows hopefully she will come back to the ‘Effenaar’ that would be so cool!
Crashing down I loved the live version of this song that Beth performed for the KRO and I really like this version. Even though I don’t like it as much as the live version I still love it. I love the drama in the song, the piano play is so dramatic! I love it!!!
Jealousy A beautiful song, amazing lyrics in a music setting that says it all. I love her beautiful pained voice in this song, the feeling that she lays in her voice. Wow!
Heaven look down The lyrics of this song for some reason really grabbed me.
Over you I love song which are mostly supported by piano’s
Forever young Love this song, it’s a lyric thing I can’t really explain it.
At the bottom Love this song, she put so much feeling into it, this is definably one of my favorite.
Missing you I have heard this song before too from a concert. I like it too, lol I like every song.
Good as it gets This song is the ‘Delicious Surprise’ of this album, the in a way funny song and I like it.
Waterfalls Again a great live song in my opinion, I really want to see her do these songs.
Sick Love this song! It is one of those sing, scream and play as loud as you can live songs!!! This one is going to rock live!
Soul shine She used to say soulshine It’s better than sunshine It’s better than moonshine Damn sure better than rain And if the people don’t mind We all feel this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine through the break of day That really says it all …
Easy Beautiful song!
One eye chicken The tittle of this song just cracked me up! Who comes up with a tittle like that?
Face forward It is an simple song, at least that is what it sounds like to me but I got zero music talent so I can’t really tell but it seems to be an easy song with a nice up tempo rhythm to it. I think that this is an awesome song to play live.
I know I know everything is good and great with this cd according to me, but I just love this woman! I think that she is an amazing talent who doesn’t even get nearly enough praise for her work and it is my mission to make as many people that I can familiar with her. And I have already managed to make some people a fan! And I will continue on to do so …
It’s pretty hard to review a cd, I never thought it would be until I did it.
I want to see Beth live again! Please please please Beth come here soon!
Beth Hart, every time I see that woman she knows how to amaze me. And believe me when I say that I have seen her in many different circumstances; fourteen or fifteen concerts from small venues to a festival. Yes, I am one of those people who is proud to say that I am a ‘Die Hart Fan’. This time I did not bring my camera; I just wanted to be there enjoy her music and see the show. And what a show it was!
She is gifted with a huge voice, an amazing talent for putting words on a paper and she is funny; she always says that she talks too much during the shows, but that is one of the things I love about her and I hope she never stops doing that. She is a funny lady, and I love the way that she talks about her songs and her husband Scott, who is at some part of the show, always the center of attention. She can’t stop telling us how sweet and romantic he is, and then always ending that story with telling us how she likes it rough. Thank you for the mental images.
I have to say that Beth looked awesome; she looked really healthy. Even though she was still having some voice problems. But it is Beth we are talking about, the woman who will always give more then 100% at a show. Unfortunately the voice problems are worse then she probably thought and wanted us to hear; she canceled three shows: one last week and two other shows.
Beth Hart pulled a ‘Dixie Chick’, for all of you music lovers out there I am pretty sure that you know what I mean by that. Let’s put it like this, I won’t say what she said exactly but she told us what her opinion was on a certain subject. It surely got a good response from the crowd.
The songs
The show was a good mix between old and new songs, which also showed who where the new fans and who where the fans from the first hour. The only songs I didn’t know where ‘Sauce’ and ‘Catalina’, which have never been recorded before.

Well of course she did my favorite songs, okay I know that I love most of her songs. But my absolute favorites where on that set list. She did ‘Easy’ as the second song that evening, I love that song.
She told the story behind ‘Jealousy’; saying that she wrote it because she is jealous when Scott looks at other women. She told a story about a park, where she and Scott were and where she got so frantic when she saw him look in a different direction and asked him who he was looking at. Later that day she went back and drove around the park for hours to see who he could have been checking out. She wrote that song a couple of years ago when she was just married. It is about her own insecurities and how they make her jealous.
‘Stinky feet’ that is the song that she always uses to tell people that she loves her husband but that he should really wash his feet. She kind of asked him if it was okay for her to tell the story, he stepped up to the mic and asked the audio people kindly to kill her mic. Which they didn’t and Beth told the story and played the song. At the end of the song Scott came back onto the stage minus one of his shoes and held his sock up to her face. Which was pretty funny of course, right back at ya Beth.
She broke a guitar string during ‘By her’, she finished the song with one less guitar string and then they ran off with the guitar to fix it for her. They brought it back onto the stage fixed and all.
She added ‘Soulshine’ in the encore, which made me really happy; that is also one of my favorites from the ’37 days’ album.
And of course she did an old favorite of the crowd, ‘Broken and Ugly’, everyone always loves that song. The crowd goes crazy every time she plays it.
Although I would have loved to hear every song of the ’37 days’ album, I personally was glad to see a mix between new and old songs and even some songs that have never been recorded. Beth was awesome, what more can a fan ask for.
Support act
Normally I don’t tell much about the support acts, truth be told usually I don’t even know who the hell was on the stage before Beth. But this girl has to be mentioned.
Her name is Wies, she is a Dutch girl, and check out her website if you would like to know more about her you can also listen to some of her songs on her MySpace. Her first CD comes out in January 2008 and I definitely interested to hear more of her songs.
There has never been a support act that I loved as much as this woman; she is talented, cute and well beautiful. And yes I am aware that you probably expected that comment from me seeing how she looks kind of like a mix between Maria Mena, Katie Melua and Norah Jones and has an awesome voice.
