Every now and then an artist emerges on the scene as if fully formed. The voice is distinct, immediate in its character. The songs feel like they truly belong to the singer. A level of self-possession animates the performances, delivers them right to your doorstep. Nothing feels forced . . . it just is. Theres an aura of inevitability that surrounds the emergence of such artists. With the release of So Much More, Brett Dennen joins the ranks of those who fit this description. Others? Joni Mitchell. Rufus Wainwright. James Taylor. Patty Griffin. Steve Earle. John Mayer. Its a class of artists defined not by genre or by a level of success but by the character of their entrance. We open the door when they appear, and its as if we were expecting them. No doubt, none o More... (Submit New Brett Dennen Lyrics) (Submit New Brett Dennen Lyrics) Review about Brett Dennen meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen i feel as if the meaning of this song is not necessarly about a certain person but an idea. It could be about a person depending on who you are and how you interpret it. I think Brett is leaving it up to us to decide what we want this to mean. In my opinion, knowing that i have lost someone who i was in a long relationship with, i think it is about a couple and that "she" will always be there for you if she meant that much to you. Shes Mine could be interpreted many ways and i think that the girl you love or loved will always be apart of you and you will always have her with you in some way. She's Mine - Meaning | Reviewer: Dave ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen I think the verse "midnight moves across the people's park" is about the 1969 death of Berkley students James Rector during a clash between Alameda County police and protesting students. Rector was died from a shotgun wound to the abdomen fired by a deputy. What does Dennen mean by "fled the fire"? Several cars were torched at the protest and when police began using agressive force, many fled the scene. Just some takes on meaning | Reviewer: What it do? ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen For anyone who's interested in the meaning, I have a few shots in the dark. First, the song is overall about going against the crowd and being confident in your devotion to something (she), be it a person, an ideal, or whatever else. Looking at the first paragraph, it's somewhat reminiscent of the three witches in Macbeth. They basically offered power in return for morality, and Macbeth followed. The second paragraph is laden with the distrust Brett exhibits of organized religion. This can also be seen in the third verse. Think KKK southern baptist fire-and-brimstone preaching. As for the second verse, I can't really say much other than it makes me think of a poor boy running up to his girlfriend's porch in a rich district late at night, only to be greeted with a kiss while all the neighbors are scandalized. "The court of canes" and "the furnace flames" are pretty darn blatant, but being a Christian and knowing the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abendigo kinda adds to it for me. And this my friends, is what happens when you're home sick and feel like writing. attn: steve | Reviewer: ali ------ About artist/band Brett Dennen steve --- if you can be so quick to point out brett's faults I assume you've taken the long, long road to developing a following of fans. I suppose you've filled hundreds of pages of countless notebooks and scribbled on napkins and looseleaf you find kicking around with profound thoughts -- or any thoughts. have you taken stage in front of even a dozen people with songs you've written? you claim brett dennen is trite and simple and that his message has been retold hundreds of times since the 60s.... try again friend. prove to me you're so original and so worthy. just chill out and listen to the music, and the (as you claim) trite lyrics. Brett Dennen is singing a message for those who want to hear -- turn away if he's so simple to you. I disagree with you, Steve. I am a Brett Dennen fan. Not impressed one bit | Reviewer: Steve ------ About artist/band Brett Dennen Never heard of this guy until I saw him on Leno. He has one of the most grating voices I've heard in a long, long time. He sounds like someone crossed a kazoo with fingernails on a chalk board. And I keep seeing people commenting about how wonderful his lyircs are. They are simple, trite, full of treacle, and there is nothing in them that has not been said hundreds of times in hundreds of songs since the 60s. Perfect in Every Way | Reviewer: Sam ------ About artist/band Brett Dennen Brett Dennen is, simply put, the perfect musician. His lyrics and vocals are beautifully true and raw. With every word, every syllable sung in every song you can hear the emotion he pours into it. When I first heard Brett sing - the first song I'd heard by him was Ain't No Reason - I listened to his voice and thought "Why is this guy singing? His voice is so weird!" But by the end of the song I was in love. His vocabulary is descriptive and well thought out, but at the same time, never seems calculated. He just opens his mouth and a waterfall of imagery and poetry just falls untamed and untainted into the ears of all his listeners. He's perfect. My favorite by far! well | Reviewer: raghda ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen on and interview i heard he came up with the chorus first. he was in his girlfriends parking lot, the large kind you have to drive into, and when he would sing the words "shes mine" he loved how it sounded with the acoustics in the garage. then he decided to work on the rest of the song. GREAT SONG | Reviewer: Charlene ------ About the song The One Who Loves You The Most performed by Brett Dennen I finally found this song ... every time the Roger's Commercial comes on my two sons and I sing to each other ... FINALLY FOUND THE LYRICS and they are so amazing. Brett's voice is sooooooooo great! Want to hear more! it just puts you at ease | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About artist/band Brett Dennen Brett dennen! I don't even know where to start! His music is like no other!!! Once you hear it, it just changes your mood in an instant (FOR THE BETTER) he has a sound that hypnotizes you and its amazing!! Brilliant, but Confusing | Reviewer: Everett ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen I love this guy's voice and guitar playing, and his lyrics are full of imagery, but I feel they tend to be unfocused. If you have to scratch your head too much to figure out what the song is about, then it's not clear as it probably should have been. I mean, I love this type of desultory lyric, but I don't feel they can age as well as more coherent ones... Brett's songs "Oh the Glorious" or "Just Like the Moon" are more coherent songs, in my opinion. brett dennen...bob dylan | Reviewer: j ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen i love the guy, his lyrics are inspiring but i have to comment that he shares not only the same initials as bob dylan but a song as well, think about it, play this somg and then play bob dylans "I want you" meaning | Reviewer: Susan ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen I was reading something about BRett Dennen and he said the lyrics didn't have to do with a loe song at all. He says it could be defined as just a happy word like a "yes!" or a "good job to myself!" Jess | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song There Is So Much More performed by Brett Dennen These lyrics aren't entirely correct. He doesn't say "of sorts" he says "of salt". The part about the salt monument is true. www.saltmonument.org Beautiful. | Reviewer: Brian J. ------ About the song The One Who Loves You The Most performed by Brett Dennen These lyrics ring so amazinly true and are so perfectly written, it makes me smile and dance along every single time I hear it. Amazing work once again my Brett Dennen. to Anonymous | Reviewer: Susana ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen hey, i heard (not saw) a live recording of this song, and he explains what the song is about. If I remember correctly, he said that it's about a person that, even if there are all these tempting things around him/her, the person knows that he/she has something special and better than that. so i don't think it's about a real person or anything like that. well, i guess it could be, but it's not specifically about one.

A Thanks and Question on lyrics | Reviewer: Susana ------ About the song She's Mine performed by Brett Dennen Thanks for posting the lyrics up! these lyrics are really unique and beautiful, along with the song :) I have a question though, towards the end, does he say "our bodies pressed endlessly" or "our bodies pressed seamlessly?"
