Billy Joel's "And So It Goes" is a song full of vulnerability, the universal emotions, in the young and old…of regret, numbness that the pain of loss of love can create...grief, loneliness, and the reality that now you are alone... sorry-ness, kindness, understanding, and finally...deep love.
Therefore…. “and so it goes”…the inevitability of life moving like this.
You can’t always plan your life, you can move forward thru anything, and there’s some underlying comfort in that….
Many times in Cathy Segal-Garcia's singing or writing she comes from a place of open heart…touching vulnerability, sometimes pain, sadness, loneliness…but also a pure love, hope, some faith. She seems to hold all these things in deep respect in humankind, wanting to reflect them and let people know that it’s OK to feel these things.
Paul Jost is an amazing artist…full of depth….intense yet powered by warmth, insight, and love.
Paul and Cathy created a story here that is intimate and deep.
This is another cut from Cathy's upcoming 2021 CD release..."Social Anthems, Vol 1".

Engaging in some hip, wild mood swings – from soft-spoken/subtle to rousing and hopeful - the endlessly inventive L.A. jazz singer, songwriter and interpreter extraordinaire has run the gamut of emotions while re-imagining for our time still relevant classics by Marvin Gaye (“Inner City Blues”), Cannonball Adderley (“Sermonette”) and a slow-burning meditative medley of The Youngbloods’ “Get Together” and Blind Faith’s “Can’t Find My Way Home.” Cathy’s perfectly chosen follow-up, a sparse, gently rendered arrangement of Billy Joel’s “And So It Goes,” originated years after those other songs but is timeless in its understanding of heartbreak and the difficulty and need to move on. Written and originally demoed in 1983, the simple piano and vocal ballad – inspired by the traditional Scottish folk song “Barbara Allen” - was the final track on the singer/songwriter’s Grammy nominated 1989 album Storm Front and was a Top 5 Billboard Adult Contemporary hit. Its masterful simplicity has lent itself to numerous versions over the years by jazz, classical, pop, rock and Broadway artists. And now it lends itself perfectly to Cathy’s penchant for using her formidable musical intuitions and soulful dusky vocal magic to explore the human condition. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Licensing for this song is through Easy Song Licensing.
