jennifer warnes: song of bernadette This was a song that Jennifer co-wrote with Leonard Cohen and appears on her album "Famous (More) This was a song that Jennifer co-wrote with Leonard Cohen and appears on her album "Famous Blue Raincoat". One of the great overlooked albums of the 80's. Highly recommended. Jennifer Jean Warnes (born March 3, 1947 in Seattle, Washington) is an American singer and songwriter. She was told by industry advisers that her surname "Warnes" was too difficult and suggested that she change it to the more common "Warren". As this eventually led to confusion with actress Jennifer Warren, she adopted the stage name "Jennifer" (no last name) briefly in the 1960s, and subsequently returned to "Jennifer Warnes" as her professional name. Her desire and ability to sing came early and at age seven she was offered her first recording contract which her father turned down. However, she did make a spectacular professional debut. Wrapped in the American flag, and accompanied by 300 accordions, nine-year-old Warnes sang The Star Spangled Banner at the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium. After graduating from high school she was offered an opera scholarship but chose to sing folk songs, popular at the time. In 1968 she signed with Parrot Records (a Decca subsidiary) and recorded her first LP. That same year, she joined the cast of the television show, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. In November 1968, Warnes (known then as "Jennifer Warren") signed on to play the female lead, "Sheila" in the Los Angeles, California production of the stage musical Hair. In 1970 she met Canadian poet/songwriter Leonard Cohen who profoundly influenced her career and became a life-long friend. She would eventually tour Europe with Cohen's band as a back-up singer and would record guest vocals for Cohen's albums Live Songs, Various Positions, I'm Your Man, and The Future. Cohen's Recent Songs included a duet on "The Smokey Life". In 1972, Reprise released her third album, "Jennifer" produced by John Cale. To date, it has never been reissued. In January 1987, Warnes released her critically acclaimed album Famous Blue Raincoat: Songs of Leonard Cohen; Cohen himself performed with her as a guest vocalist on two of the songs featured. Her 1977 breakthrough single "Right Time of the Night" brought her worldwide acclaim with the song hitting #1 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart as well as #6 on the Hot 100. It just missed the million-selling sales mark (selling over 900,000 copies). The song also plays in the background of one of the scenes from the film When Harry Met Sally.... In 1980 she sang the Academy Award winner for Best Original Song"It Goes Like It Goes" from the motion picture Norma Rae (1979). Warnes' 1981 song "One More Hour", composed by Randy Newman and recorded as part of the soundtrack album from the motion picture Ragtime, was nominated for an Academy Award. The following year she teamed up with Joe Cocker to sing Buffy Sainte-Marie's song "Up Where We Belong". Written for the motion picture An Officer and a Gentleman, the song would be released as a single and hit #1 (for 3 weeks running) on Billboard's Hot 100 chart. It stands as Warnes' biggest selling disc ever, being certified 'Platinum' for sales of 2 million US sales. The same year she recorded a moving performance of James Taylor's Millworker in the American Playhouse production of Working on PBS. In 1983 she and Cocker won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for "Up Where We Belong", while earning the songwriters (Buffy Sainte-Marie and Will Jennings) the Golden Globe Award and the Academy Award for Best Original Song. In 1987, at the Cocoanut Grove in Los Angeles, she sang female background vocals with k.d. lang and Bonnie Raitt for Roy Orbison's television special A Black and White Night. That same year her duet with Bill Medley for "(I've Had) The Time of My Life", was included on the Dirty Dancing motion picture soundtrack album and reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent 4 consecutive weeks at #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. The song won the 1988 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and the Academy Award for Best Original Song. It was also certified 'Gold' for 1 million US sales. She performed many songs for film and sang a duet with B. J. Thomas for the theme song for Growing Pains. In August 2007, Shout Factory Records re-released the 20th anniversary edition of Famous Blue Raincoat, with a 24 page booklet and 4 additional songs. Jennifer also contributed to a tribute album of Ian Tyson songs [edit] Discography * I Can Remember Everything (Less)
Enjoy Every Sandwich This is a video I put together for the album Enjoy Every Sandwich which is a Warren Zevon tribute (More) This is a video I put together for the album Enjoy Every Sandwich which is a Warren Zevon tribute album. I recently bought this in the last 1 1/2 months. I know it's been out for about 3 years now but this album has ment a lot to me. I mainly wanted to put this up for those who haven't gotten a chance to hear the album yet. The intro was a tribute done by Bruce Springsteen live in Toronto (before he sang the song on track 5 that I'll get to). The video then features the artist with a clip of the song they sing in order as it appears in the album. 1. Don Henly - Searching For A Heart 2. Adam Sandler - Werewolves Of London 3. Steve Earle & Reckless Kelly - Reconsider Me 4. Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt - Poor, Poor Pitiful Me 5. Bruce Springsteen - My Ride's Here 6. The Wallflowers - Lawyers, Guns and Money 7. Jordan Zevon - Studebaker 8. Billy Bob Thornton - The Wind 9. Pete Yorn - Splendid Isolation 10. Bob Dylan - Mutineer 11. David Lindley & Ry Cooder - Monkey Wash, Donkey Rinse 12. Jill Sobule - Don't Let Us Get Sick 13. Pixies - Ain't That Pretty At All 14. Jorge Calderon & Jennifer Warnes - Keep Me In Your Heart I just want to say that this is not supposed to be humorous...like most of my other videos. If you start laughing, it's probably bad pic selection. (Less)
