Paint

from Kind of Jazz by Norine Braun

/

about

From the album No.8

"Paint"continues to show off Norine's powerful vocal delivery. Once again, I must compare it to kd lang's style, especially when talking about a more soulful jazzier sound. A brilliant song, sang brilliantly. - John Vermilyea Blues Underground Network

“Paint” opens with a sweet classical guitar and Braun becomes that nightclub jazz singer. She owns it. You can feel the pause and then the band comes in louder and the song is full of the colors described in the lyrics and Braun’s voice, so soft and smoky in the beginning before becoming big and bold. Think Sade on steroids. - Vinny "Bond" Marini

lyrics

PAINT
©Norine Braun SOCAN
Been walking down these streets
So dirty, dark and grey
Looking for a rainbow to chase my clouds away
I always needed sunshine
More than I need pain

An artist man he saw me
And this is what he said
Can always change your blues
Need only paint them red
Never look for details
Look for love instead

Then I saw someone’s eyes
Who wore no disguise
Colours came alive
Vibrant was the night
The moon embraced the sky

Feeling the thick of it
Nothings for sure
I am in spite of things
Fighting the floor

But I’ll get used to this
You know I‘ll beg you for more
And I’ll get rid of it
You know we’ll even the score
If you don’t speak of things
I’ll ask you no more
Yes I’ll get used to this
You know I’ll beg you for more

Her signature funky folk-blues sound simply cannot be matched. Best listened to as loud as your neighbours will tolerate. Abortmag

Her music sounds like the union of Nick Cave with Patti Smith & City and Colour deep in the Canadian forests.

An imaginative display of fine musicianship, potent vocals and heartfelt lyrics, talent like hers doesn't exactly come around too often. Music Emission
