She was raised by her mother, who recognized her love of music from a young age, and despite not having much money, bought her a ukulele when she was just three. On her self-titled debut, which had been released on Elektra two months earlier with only modest sales expectations, “Fast Car” is a counterbalance to the weightiness of “Behind the Wall.” The low verses mix bleak recognition with quiet hope before building to a chorus so wistful, so joyfully tender it can transport you to a time in your life when you were younger and maybe a little less scared. Most of the people watching her performance at Wembley did not arrive knowing Chapman’s power, and most likely had never heard of her before. But they experienced in real time her ability to lift hearts into people’s throats. She performed her songs the same way she had on the streets for years: alone and brilliantly exposed.

Chapman was as self-effacing in real life as she was singing from behind the characters in her songs. She hated interviews, almost never bantered on stage, and wasn’t shy about her displeasure at being coded a “protest singer.” And unlike folk artists like Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez, to whom she is often compared, Chapman’s music wasn’t as explicitly confessional as much as it was a portrait of the environment that first fostered her stark but fiercely optimistic worldview.

I love books, I love reading, and I basically grew up in a public library. I’ve always loved poetry, music was always in the house, and there was such a range of different music around."

And as she sang with that magnetic calm, she built an atmosphere as intimate as each listener’s childhood bedroom. “Behind the Wall” was the second of what was supposed to be a three-song set. But then, as the legend goes, serendipity gave the world another glimpse of this commanding artist. Just before Stevie Wonder was supposed to perform, a piece of his sound equipment went missing, and he refused to go on stage. Chapman agreed to take his place. It was in that surprise second set that she played “Fast Car.” Matrix / Runout (Runout side A, variant 4): R/S Alsdorf 960774-1-A2 34 MASTERDISK ST-E-60774-A-DMM-2 SP3-5 Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers!
