Free Download: Tracy Chapman - Fast Car (Jolique Remix)

Tracy Chapman is an amazing storyteller and her voice seems to have magical powers to carry emotions in a way that is truly outstanding. Fast Car was the lead single to her self-titled 1988 debut album. When she performed it at Nelson Mandela's 70th birthday tribute at a packed Wembley Arena she, in a very understated way, sang herself into the history books. Her debut album is one of those that is a gem that will never stop selling. The story of a checkout girl dreaming of getting away from her hopeless surroundings and finding a new better life brings tears to our eyes every time we hear it. The original's iconic guitar riff is kept front and center in this Jolique bootleg and the added club vibe is really interesting. Like Tracy's girl perhaps finally gets a break and can go out and have some fun with friends and finding that elusive happiness that somewhere is lurking around the corner.
