DVD Reviews of Sheryl Crow: C'mon America 2003

DVD Review: Great music and words on stage
Summary: 5 Stars

I truly think more people should own this DVD than will ever go to a Sheryl Crow concert. As the population ages, such an easy form of entertainment ought to replace the more vigorous partying that young people engage in. Millions of people know some of the songs on this DVD. One of the big questions in American culture seems to be: if a million people never heard of you, what good are you? On a scale from nowhere to the top of the charts, crowds love those people who have been at the top of the chart, and concerts are an ideal situation for performers who want to get up in front of a crowd and bask in euphoria. A DVD like "C'mon America 2003" shows how far a star like Sheryl Crow can go in music and spectacle.

It helps to know the music and words of some of the songs already. When Sheryl Crow tells the crowd, "You guys are awesome!" after the second song, it must be because the presence of so many people who know exactly what is going on, word for word and note for note, is an inspiring experience. I consider the words to be better than my usual reading, if music can be compared to philosophy. Starting the concert with a guitar line from a relatively new song, "Steve McQueen," which challenges the crowd to remember when have they ever heard this before, while she rhymes "have some fun" with "how the West was won" in an ode to a fast machine with rock stars in the White House, pop stars who look like porn. I think she is taunting the crowd with "underneath your radar screen, you'll never catch me tonight."

The second song, "There goes the neighborhood," starts with a line that tells the crowd where she is heading, "Let's party!" This goes to extremes: "This is the meltdown." A typical joke in this song is about the police dusting her mother's plastic flowers. They could be looking for fingerprints or collecting samples of some chemical dust, for all I know. The ambiguity is obviously the main topic in the line that we "can't be certain who the villains are cause everyone's so pretty." The music builds to a crashing ending. Then I think the daylight video with empty chairs, a dog and baby for the song "Riverwide" was made during the sound check. There are also a few soft songs during the concert. "Redemption Day" seems a bit spooky, rhyming Heaven's gate with watch and wait and pontificate. "Home" has a lovely blend of voices, finally putting a lot of slide guitar before the "I'm going crazy" verse, then using the piano to bring the music to a soft conclusion.

In between the soft songs, "If It Makes You Happy" and "A Change Would Do You Good" really rock. After a lot of weird lines like "wear your fake fur on the inside," she finally gets to a message machine by the radar range that says, "Leave me alone." The best dancing sequence is in the song "Everyday is a Winding Road."

After a little dressing room break, the song "You're an Original" shows some thought about how being unique does not last long. Then she invites the crowd to quit their jobs and go on the road with her. Watching this on a DVD, it seems a bit late to be so involved in a concert, but there are still a few more songs. "Let's Get Free" suggests "digging within to find the truth" and "Truth is what you need." The videos shown on a screen behind the stage don't usually detract from the concert, but the mushroom cloud doesn't show up until the end of "Safe and Sound." If you miss it the first time, it might be because you were so interested in how much this DVD shows about how five musicians are able to make the music. Once you know that you want to learn these songs, you are sure to watch this DVD again sometime.
