Orianthi Performing Jimi Hendrix’s “Voodoo Child”
Orianthi – “Voodoo Child” – Live
I don’t know why people would even try to compare this to one of Jimi’s or SRV’s versions. It’s her interpretation. She nailed it adding her own unique flavour with passion and confidence. That’s what music is all about!
Lyrics:
Well, I’m standing next to a mountain
Chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, I’m standing next to a mountain
Chop it down with the edge of my hand
Pick up all the pieces, make an island
Might even raise a little sand
‘Cause I’m a voodoo child yeah
Lord knows I’m a voodoo child
I didn’t mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it right back to you one of these days
I didn’t mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it right back to you the rest of my days
I won’t see you again in this world
See you in the next one, don’t be late
Don’t be late
‘Cause I’m a voodoo child yeah
Lord knows I’m a voodoo child
Songwriters: Jimi Hendrix

I feel, that she is like Keith Richards is between men.
