Ode to Billie Joe: Bobbie Gentry's True Crime/Philosophy Masterpiece

In this video we break down Bobbie Gentry's 1967 number-one hit "Ode to Billie Joe," with some background on the artist, some musical and lyrical analysis, and a look at the song's broader context. Subscribe to Inside the Song to be notified of new videos:    / @insidethesong   It's fun to interpret it as a tale of true crime, but in fact "Ode to Billie Joe" is a study in unconscious cruelty — so said former philosophy major Bobbie Gentry, anyway. We're so wrapped up in our own lives and problems that we can't be bothered with the needs of anyone else, not even our loved ones. That's the true crime and the true message of this great song. There's a lot about Bobbie Gentry I reluctantly had to omit for the sake of time: important stuff like the egregious sexism she faced in the music business; sort of boring stuff like the long, complicated lawsuits over who really wrote and produced "Ode to Billie Joe" (she did, no matter what Jim Ford and Kelly Gordon say); the speculation about why she retreated to seclusion more than 40 years ago. If I want to say anything at all about a song, I have to say less about its artist, unfortunately. For a deeper look, start with Tara Murtha's book Ode to Billie Joe (https://tinyurl.com/39cjmaba). There's a handful of shorter but interesting articles online too. And although I used still images from the movie Ode to Billy Joe, I chose not to discuss it in any detail. The movie (which was made with Bobbie Gentry's participation) offers an explanation for Billie/Billy Joe's suicide and specifies what was thrown from the bridge. But in these videos, I want to hew as closely as possible to the original texts.
