Julia Holter - Hello Stranger Lyrics






Hello stranger
It seems so good to see you back again
How long has it been?
It seems like a mighty long time

I’m so glad you stopped by to say hello to me
Remember that’s the way it used to be
It seems like a mighty long time

I’m so glad you’re here again
If you’re not gonna stay
Please don’t treat me like you did before
Because I still love you so
Although it seems like a mighty long time.

I’m so happy that you’re here again

Julia Holter Hello Stranger Comments
  1. A.... K....

    She has a gorgeous voice. Absolutely pure and so strong. I would love to see her singe this with a proper band and full studio backing. This is nice but the whole thing sounds like an intro that's about to break out into a full blown jam and it never does. This girl has much more talent than is shown with such a limited arrangement.

    Just sayin...

  2. M.... l....

  27. B.... D....

    When I hear it, I feel the spirit of my old homies gone and past RIP. Like I'm in a dream and we're cruising again in a lowrider pulling up slow. Smoke in the air out that low low...it's a good time all the time with my homies. Seems like a mighty long time.

    B.... D....

  28. V.... H....

    Truely breathe taking vocals and music celestial

  30. M.... G....

  31. P.... B....

    a slick version , i like it.

  32. D.... D....

    Beautiful but haunting.

  33. o.... ....

    With this song I can tell what she is singing. The others not so much.

  34. E.... G....

    It reminds me of the boy I loved, and that he loves me, now he's a stranger. So Beautiful
    I remember This song makes me cry, it's so beautiful, she sings beautiful, and transmits with her song, that sensation and feeling of depth,.
    Of all his songs, this is the one I like the most, the violin is perfect, the tone, everything transports you to a state of peace, melancholy, spirituality.
    The melody is so deep and beautiful, it reminds me of the person I loved, and in the end you're left with nothing, only with yourself, to live in life, this song I hear it every morning as I walk through the woods by the lake being reflected by the rays of the sun, beautiful morning, melancholy, loneliness, sadness, beautiful deep song, makes you cry, makes you travel, you feel alive to breathe the fresh air, close your eyes and imagine your perfect life with the person you love most it is no longer
    The person you love is a complete stranger
    Hello stranger

  35. j.... w....

    Just....Brilliant...!

  36. p.... p....

    Absolutely Beautiful rendition. bravo Brava!

  37. F.... G....

    It sounds like slow motion would sound like if it made noise.

  38. m.... ....

    The singer is good but everything else stinks.

  39. G.... M....

    seems like a long long time but it was only yesterday!!!!!!!  Geronimo   aka G-Mo class of 70/71 Tigers

  40. B.... N....

    ✨✨💕

  41. E.... E....

    es preciosa, ella y su música

  42. 1.... ....

    This lady is Cute ..............

  43. U.... ....

    Another interpretation of a classic song by Barbara Lewis. I love the instrumental background it gives it a musical depth that is wide and a showcase of classical violin, soulful sax and a longing for the stranger who left with the voice of calling to the one that has come and gone with a blink.

  44. w.... m....

    Judith Holter is music and emotion at the pinnacle.

  45. T.... M....

    Incredibly haunting, absolutely beautiful rendition and performance. All of Juilia Holters album are great but this track is a definite favorite. Choice.

  46. J.... A....

    version of elliman and latifah is the best version of this

  47. S.... ....

    Holy cow I never heard of her before you tube suggested her video and I love this song so i played it . What a different take on a classic absolutely a winner in it's approach . Now I want to hear more and find out who and what she's all about .

  48. S.... M....

    heard this on the radio but didn"t  know who did it, until now. Beautifully done song

  49. F.... S....

    Pure magic.....

  50. G.... T....

    I love the gentle touch of this song

  51. C.... O....

    Beyond lovely.

  52. N.... F....

    SUPER VERSION, COMPLETE SOUND OF A GREAT OLD SONG. THANKS

  53. J.... D....

    tremenda ...

  54. E.... E....

    Encantadora

  55. C.... S....

    reminds me of prefab sprout

  56. D.... G....

    Love the Barbra Lewis version but since the first time I heard this a couple months ago I can't stop playing it. So mellow and haunting, an absolutely beautiful version.

  57. S.... B....

    horrível!!!

    S.... B....

    Não. Não é horrível, apenas diferente.

    Barabara Lewis has the definitive, better version but this one is an interesting interpretation.

    S.... B....

    Essa versão me da sono.

    S.... B....

    Versão new age?

  58. t.... ....

    My God!

  59. C.... C....

    super :)

  60. k.... ....

    a so good version!

  61. C.... f....

    What A Singer Love it

  62. N.... A....

    Buena versión

  63. C.... o....

    Nectar.

  64. o.... ....

    SO beautiful =)

  65. M.... A....

    I don't care for this version not like the original does not sound the same i think she ruined it. the original was better as written

    M.... A....

    You just don't get it. This is great. The original should pick up right after this fades

  66. C.... o....

    Beautiful version..

  67. t.... d....

    What a stunning performance. I love the space which the musicians have created for Julia's voice to unfurl and soar within.

    t.... d....

    +the deeliciousplum What a stunning comment (of yours). So inspiring. Thank you

    t.... d....

    SIMPLY EPIC EXTREMELY EPIC GREAT TITANIC EPIC

  68. C.... L....

    De todas las versiones que he escuchado de esta canción es la que menos me gusta, está muy lenta.

    C.... L....

    A chingar a su madre entonces

  69. B.... K....

    A dirge!

  70. M.... T....

    This is just great ...

  71. i.... ....

    so bill wilstein did you enjoy the song then? i am seriously not relating to your point! i went into this ethereal space that involved candles,inscents a beutifull woman and a very erotic moment in time! i guess that's just the way my brain works! i hate to assume anything about total strangers but i would bet you get out of the shower to go pee friend!

    i.... ....

    You pee in the shower? You animal!

  72. C.... B....

    Extraordinário !

  73. R.... ....

    This is, frankly, stunning.

  74. R.... ....

    I am SO excited about Julia Holter's new LP coming out tomorrow.

  75. M.... K....

    much love!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  76. J.... T....

    In a world like this, Julia es an extraterrestrial art been... Welcome to the planet of polution, war and crimes.
    Thanks a lot for songs like this

  77. R.... N....

    Well it is a rather interesting interpretation. I can't relate, but it is music...Peace.

  78. t.... ....

    Such a good interpretation. Brilliant.

  79. S.... ....

    Boring.

  80. Z.... D....

    It's refreshing when a young artist does an "old" classic like this. It's a sweet (and a little melancholy) rendition.

  81. Z.... F....

    BEAUTIFUL COVER

  82. F.... ....

    lightened to this after Barbra version i wouldn't call this a cover but a ruination of the song

  83. C.... J....

    LOVE it her style is unique and her voice is BEAUTIFUL

    C.... J....

    My Sister in Christ,

  84. m.... ....

    Simplement brutal. Pur extasi. Si la versió original de Barbara Lewis és extraordinària, aquesta de na Julia Holter és realment súblime, onírica. Thanks so much Julia, you sound like an angel.

  85. c.... B....

    She is lovely, but it's just to slow and draggy for me. 

    c.... B....

    @cowgirlinheels Boyd to me Yvonne ellimans version is the best, even better than the original!!!

    c.... B....

    That's okay with me, honest. We need to agree to disagree. @dettigs

    c.... B....

    Think of it as another version. It seems perfect for a slow loving, u know what I mean ;)

  86. a.... ....

    Dear Julia & Bowlegs,
    I have always loved this magical song. Stripped of the beat, as you have done here, leaves the pure emotion of the song which is spectacular and powerful. Songs like this are a gift. There's no way a songwriter can make this happen on their own, a perfect combination of melody, lyrics, and the inflections given during the performance. Brought back tears, and I've heard this piece hundreds of times. Thank you, so very much.

  87. A.... P....

    simply amazing

  88. B.... M....

    Relax súper relax

  89. S.... R....

    awesome

  90. A.... R....

    geniallll simplemente grandioso

  91. A.... F....

    so beautiful

  92. d.... a....

    beautiful.

  93. m.... ....

    a lot thats missing compared to the original and very little added..

    m.... ....

    Not the point.

  94. D.... J....

    Beautiful rendition of the original.  Thank you.

  95. C.... M....

    She has a good voice, but she murdered that song!
