About half way through this song will grab ahold of you, and it won't let go.

1. OMG!

It didn't take half way, it grabbed me from the very beginning and never let go. Can't wait to listen to it again and share it with some folks I know who will love it!

Thanks so much, patphil!

4. The whole song is great, but when she goes into the chant, your spirit starts to soar.

5. It truly does!

I live in OK and have had some opportunities to learn about, and experiences with, Native American culture through friends and acquaintances. But this just wrapped all of that up and really sold it!

I've not seen her in a very long time and I'm telling you, this just blew me the fuck away!

2. Excellent Video With Top-Notch Vocals

So why not sing along...

Whether you're woman or whether you're man
Sometimes you got to take a stand
Just because you think you can
You got to run
You got to run...

3. I'm so happy to know she's still making music.

She was one of the heroes of my childhood.

6. Wow!

That was awesome

8. Here's the entire compilation.

A friend I shared this with found it on YT. She also pointed out the shout out to Standing Rock by Tanya toward the end, too. I'd missed it, so focused on BSM.

9. Have been doing a lot of reading about her this morning.

I figured I had lost track of her because I love so much music and so many musicians, but no! In an interview in 2008 at the Museum of the American Indian, she said that she and other indigenous artists were actually blacklisted by American radio stations back in the 1970s.

There's an authorized biography about her that was published in 2018. I just put a hold on it at my library.
