Understated genius. True Originality. I had no idea this woman was so physically beautiful.

I did a version of this great song on my chromatic harp. I try to be close to Bobbie Gentry´s version. It´s om my YouTube page, hope you like it.

Was it really supposed to be an aborted fetus they threw off the bridge? I suppose the song is about Billy Joe's suicide.

Fully agree, KudzuRunner. I could not have said it better.

Just a woman and a guitar, with a few strings sweetening the background. This is an astonishing bit of music. She never strains, she never rushes, she never postures. This lady--and this song--deserved every bit of success they enjoyed.
