I came across Christina Perri not too long ago from Erika Kind’s Blog Share Your Light (https://erikakind.me/2017/05/30/song-of-the-day-525/) and so loved her sound that I bought her “Lovestrong” album, based on hearing a short sampling of “Jar of Hearts”. If it has the same impact on you that it had/has on me, it will be playing in your head for quite a while after hearing it! Enjoy!

Yes she certainly presented an emotional performance didn’t she. I did wander over to your Blog, but it is rather incomplete. When you have the Home Page configured; the About me page completed, and any other area that would assist potential Followers in knowing a little about who you are and what your interest is in Blogging … please let me know and I will drop by again! 🙂

Much as I love the music of the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s), there is some excellent songwriting and performing still going on (thank goodness)! 🙂

I was introduced to Christina and the song by my daughter way back at the beginning of her career. This year is the 10th Anniversary of Jar of Hearts! In this case, you most certainly must agree with the old adage : “Better late than never”. Thank-you for reminding me of this lovely song and the talented songstress!

Hi Ellen. Yes, I saw her 10th Anniversary acoustic version on YouTube … and wondered how I missed out on such talent 10 years ago! As you say “Better late than never”! 🙂

Hi Willow. I suspect that it has deep meaning for quite a few people. She sings it so well and incorporates the drama and the emotional stress of the circumstances very well I thought. Glad you enjoyed it.
