Calvi, Anna - Jezebel Lyrics






Jezebel... Jezebel...
Ce démon qui brûlait mon cœur
Cet ange qui séchait mes pleurs
C'était toi, Jezebel, c'était toi.
Ces larmes transpercées de joie,
Jezebel, c'était toi... Jezebel, c'était toi...

Mais l'amour s'est anéanti.
Tout s'est écroulé sur ma vie,
Écrasant, piétinant, emportant mon cœur,
Jezebel... Mais pour toi,
Je ferais le tour de la terre,
J'irais jusqu'au fond des enfers.
Où es-tu? Jezebel, où es-tu?

Les souvenirs que l'on croit fanés
Sont des êtres vivants
Avec des yeux de morts vibrants encore de passé
Mais mon cœur est crevé d'obsession.
Il bat en répétant
Tout au fond de moi-même
Ce mot que j'aime,
Ton nom...
Jezebel... Jezebel...

Mais l'amour s'est anéanti.
Tout s'est écroulé sur ma vie,
Écrasant, piétinant, emportant mon cœur
Jezebel... Mais pour toi,
Je ferais le tour de la terre,
J'irais jusqu'au fond des enfers
En criant sans répit,
Jour et nuit,
Jezebel... Jezebel...
Jezebel...

    Big Mout intro 

  19. S.... ....

    Oh God !!!!!

  20. m.... c....

    OK! But I prefer Frankie Laines version.

  21. L.... W....

    What was the inspiration for this ballad on Jezebel?

    L.... W....

    I'd wager it was a woman called Jezebel.

    L.... W....

    @Luke Wilbur It's Frankie Laine plus a smattering of Ennio Morricone twangs

    L.... W....

    We'd have to ask Wayne Shanklin - he wrote the song.

  22. j.... ....

    Mi ricorda i primi Jefferson Airplane...

  23. J.... ....

    Even better than Shakin' Stevens version.

  25. P.... ....

    Mother of fucking God D:

  27. D.... ....

    written by Wayne Shanklin ;)

  28. L.... R....

    I think so, yep

  29. G.... ....

    It's an Edith Piaf song no ?

    G.... ....

    Wayne Shanklin actually, but Edith made it famous.

  30. M.... M....

    I was looking for a song I thought was called Jesabell and got this one. Totally different but great. Reminds me of Nona Hagen

  31. j.... T....

    WOW!!!, I'm speechless... she's absolutely amazing!

  32. A.... ....

    whats the very last freaking chord in this song, i cant figure it out??

  33. W.... W....

    The Edith Piaf rendition is the definitive and best!

  34. E.... D....

    SUCH AN AMAZING CHARACTER!!

  35. T.... ....

    this song was composed in the fifties , it was first recorded by Frankie Laine . Get your head out of your ass , I know it's too much asking you to have some culture , but at least use Google beforen posting shit comments

  36. D.... ....

    God awful. Just awful.

  37. D.... S....

    Reminds me of Nick Cave in his Elvis period

  38. D.... S....

    Beloved Siouxsie, beloved PJ, beloved White Stripes! This woman is also a major starr I love watching her do magic on that telecaster. And you'd have to be a big baby if you use the word "bitch" Scared of pussy, huh?

  39. D.... ....

    Don't call her a bitch, bitch!

  40. C.... ....

    SEXIEST SONG EVER!

  41. I.... A....

    She's no bitch, she's classy.

  42. F.... ....

    You could have chosen a better wort that bitch. And you are actually comparing her to Polly....

  43. L.... ....

    If this track isn't on Mafia II, you truly are one of the biggest dumb-ass muthafuckaz in the world. If it's not, I apologize...

  44. D.... W....

    She's great, but there's something touchy about covering Herman's Hermits songs.

  45. A.... ....

    REMINDED ME OF BELOVED SIOUXSIE I WAS READY TO WRITE ABOUT IT!
    SHE SEEMS TO BE REALLY SOMETHING THIS ANNA GIRL! I HOPE SHE FINDS HER PATH TO SUCCESS WITHOUT LOSING HERSELF!

  46. K.... M....

    MAFIA II RULES!

  47. D.... ....

    there are some haters on you tube. shes great.. love her looking forward to see her live.

  48. p.... ....

    siouxsie meets the doors meet the white stripes kind o thing…

  49. m.... l....

    awful this is so ugly i think jezebel in marty wilde's version is the best

  50. A.... ....

    davvero ... Anna ... unica ... in questa interpretazione poi .. oltre ... :) grz

  51. A.... B....

    anna sei fantastica, così sensuale. la migliore per sempre

  52. A.... P....

    She really is super, and well done for bringing some of the rest of the band in this video! Such a beautiful lady too, though I really like the different music. Brilliant live they are!

  53. n.... ....

    poor aznavour

  54. D.... D....

    @Baskerville22 Wtf are you talking about? Define singing please.

  55. n.... ....

    @Baskerville22 Pretend singing? I'm pretty sure she's not pretending.

  56. p.... x....

    112 people need to see the ear doctor.

  57. T.... M....

    I love it.

  58. L.... ....

    110 justin bieber fans saw this video ...

  59. c.... ....

    cross beteween Tea Leoni and Dolores O'Riordan (a random thought)

  60. c.... ....

    Is this a Siouxsie rip-off or what?

  61. f.... ....

    suzanne and I hehehe

  62. G.... F....

    @MariannaNimega If you really think this, you should see "Rider To Sea" which better demonstrates not only her competence as a guitarist, but also her original circular strumming technique which produces a harp-like sound. Jezebel is a cover and she hasn't really strayed too far from the original, but I personally don't think it's necessary for every song to showcase her guitar playing in order for it to be considered 'good'.

  63. C.... G....

    any other gay guys feeling an unnatural sexual attraction toward her? O.o

  64. M.... ....

    Awful shit.

  65. w.... ....

    @913charlotte = thanks2many live clips we can see what range she presents vocally & guitarwise. Not unlike early PJ Harvey, another blues influenced guitarist w/powerful voice =has 2 instruments=vox & guitar that both seem to be able to be expressive from whisper/twang to scream/belt out/wail & thunder range. So for restrained yet great guitarchops tune= go to youtube clip ending with /TDQVJ5CQimM & for noguitar but full on chanteusepowered vocals= go2 youtube clip ending in /cb9fAs1AfIM

  66. w.... ....

    @chrisspitzman =as there seem to be very few women who sing in this vocal range it is great to hear another.
    ...and as Anna is covering the incredible Edith Piaf who sang in this range long long ago (listen to the clip Edith Piaf - Jezebel..or the infamous one of the greatest torchsongs of all time=La Vie en Rose) so she may be influenced by Siouxsee who probably was influenced by Edith too. Thank goodness for Edith & Siouxsee and..esp since those 2 arent active anymore..Anna. Brava ladies!

  67. p.... ....

    considering she is so softly spoken, she has an amazing singing voice!

  68. C.... W....

    @lordtuck39
    I agree. This is painful to listen to. Its like a Chavvy Lorry driver in the Valleys following a pit pony

    C.... W....

    Do you even know what that means?

  69. l.... ....

    " A truly awful singer"!! I saw her live last sunday. It was the best gig I have been to in twenty years. I was absolutely mesmerised by her incredible voice and music.
    "You'd nail her" - don't reckon you're going to get many thumbs up with comments like that . Anyway, she's gay.

    l.... ....

    In the lineage with Diamanda

  70. M.... W....

    @oleumpancake Youve got no ear for it mate..........shes got a very powerful voice and great range....go see her live then make a comment....youll be blown away....believe me.

  71. M.... R....

    @oleumpancake She's an amazing singer you sexist dickweed

  72. c.... ....

    So Siousxie Sioux...

  73. T.... ....

    @EverWatchfulEyeXIX
    1- A parte che nn sei te che puoi giudicare cosa fanno le persone e "perchè" lo fanno!
    2- cosa centra adesso quello che facciamo noi?
    3- se hai 31 anni e ti esprimi ancora così vuol dire che sei stato educato male (nn prenderlo cm insulto ma semplicemente come constatazione del fatto che 6 maleducato..)
    4- resta che il paragone era assurdo.. mettila come t pare grande esperto!
    Ciao! Impara a non insultare la gente poi potrai parlare di tutto il resto! :)

  74. T.... ....

    @EverWatchfulEyeXIX
    Si vabbè!, io questa manco la conosco, la vado a vedè stasera x scriverci 1 articolo... ma m'ha fatto ridere il tuo commento! sei uno di quei ragazzini esaltati che conoscono a memoria 4 gruppi in croce vero? :)
    Se devi fare 1 paragone fallo almeno pertinente! MA COSA CENTRANO I DREAM CON QUESTA???
    ahahahahahahah!!!! che pischelli!!!!!!! xD

  75. C.... ....

    She reminds my of Kelli Garner a bit.

  76. B.... G....

    Original is from Edith Piaf I think

  77. M.... M....

    what a classy bitch, proudly strumming her telecaster, just like pj, not comparing.

  78. J.... ....

    @jefflaurents - What do you want? She does a completely different version to Frankie Lane. If a modern artist is doing a cover, I'd rather they do their own interpretation than do a carbon copy of the original just to satisfy people who miss the point. As for saying she is "weak", try listening to the original "dramatic and fiery" version again because Calvi's vocal range and projection is far more powerful. This is also a live performance and you're comparing it to Lane's studio recording!!?

  79. C.... M....

    @DWJTX
    Sorry I made a mistake : Aznavour and Piaf were just the singers of a french cover of this song which was written by Wayne Shanklin and sung by Frankie Laine....

  80. C.... M....

    @JBNewman85
    Sorry you are right ! Aznavour and Edith Piaf were the singers of the french cover...

  81. J.... N....

    @LEGOFFMARTINEAU The song was written by Wayne Shanklin. I don't know where you got Charles Aznavour from.

  82. C.... M....

    @DWJTX
    No Charles Aznavour as composer and Edith Piaf as singer..

  83. R.... ....

    @Filledudragon76 Duty and pleasure

  84. M.... ....

    edith piaf

  85. s.... ....

    i think im in love, she looks like a blend of Elvis & Angelina Jolie

  86. P.... ....

    @carlitocarlite My personal favorite version is Reverend Horton Heat's cover. But this one is pretty amazing as well.

  87. C.... P....

    She's terrifying, and that's exactly why I love her.

  88. t.... ....

    Her voice's so amazing and what a presence she has... Best wishes from São Paulo, Brazil.

  89. J.... J....

    @Filledudragon76 This song is from the 30's or 40's. I performed it in a group about 14 years ago. There are recorded versions going back o 1951, waaaaayy before Horton Heat.

  90. x.... ....

    That last noteeeeee.
    How beautiful.

  91. Y.... D....

    music from the desert

  92. K.... O....

    Hypnotic

  93. R.... ....

    @Filledudragon76 it was frankie lane

  94. m.... ....

    She's so unbelievably beautiful that i can't belive it
