Nothing's gonna change my world

One of my favourite songs is "Across the universe" by Fionna Apple, this song was written by John Lennon & Paul McCartney and it was originally performed by The Beatles in the album "Let It Be". I first heard it around the year 2003, i was at school, sometimes my friend isabel and i used to hear music together, one day she was hearing an album of Fionna an she said...hey! Have you heard this song?. When i put the headphones on my ears i started to hear this beautifull song. it was like hearing someone talking quietly to my mind, the music inmerse me in a deep state of mind, everytime a heard it, provokes me the same feeling between happyness, sadness, nostalgic and peace.
I really liked that song, im still not sure about if i have heard that song before that time, i think it was in my unconscious. Maybe i heard it before because the Beatles will be always popular and i knew some song of her song but i didnt knew that she was the perfomer.
Like two moths after, at my birthday my friend gave me the album that she
had. I really liked it.
Then i saw the video on mtv, it was like been watching the really it other way. i really love when everything its upsi
de down, and she sings in front of the camera so calm and at the back there are lot of people around chaos and destruction.
A song that will always will remind me a stage of my lyfe.



here are the lyrics

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind
Possessing and caressing me
Jai guru de va om

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe
Jai guru de va om

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing
Through my open ears inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me
Like a million suns, it calls me on and on across the universe
Jai guru de va om

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Jai guru de va om, Jai guru de va om
Jai guru de va om, Jai guru de va om
Jai guru de va om

Jai guru de va om
Jai guru de va om

Have you heard Bowie's version from his 1975 album "Young Americans"?

I'm going to Check out Ms Apples version. I have 1 or 2 tracks by her which are fairly groovy.
