Písně, jak je (možná) neznáte

Jessica Simpson - ANGELS

Tuhle píseň nazpívalo víc interpretů, nejpopulárnější je ovšem v podání Robbieho Williamse. Podle mě se ale víc povedla tahle verze zpěvačky Jessicy Simpson. A netvrdím to jen kvůli její hezké tvářičce.

Text

I sit and wait does an angel contemplate my fate

And do they know the places where we go when we're grey and old
'cos I've been told that salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead I'm loving angels instead

Ref.
And through it all he offers me protection

a lot of love and affection whether I'm right or wrong

And down the waterfall wherever it may take me

I know that life won't break me when I come to call

He won't forsake me I'm loving angels instead

When I'm feeling weak and my pain walks down on one way street

I look above and I know I'll always be blessed with love

And as the feeling grows he breathes flesh to my bones

And when love is dead I'm loving angels instead

Ref.

Michael W. Smith - BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER

Slavný hit Simona a Garfunkela se mimořádně povedl také známému křesťanskému interpretovi Michaelu W. Smithovi. Verze s textem ve videu.

Village People - GO WEST

Nakonec pořádná vykopávka, ale skvělá. Tentokrát případ, kdy kopie (v podání Pet Shop Boys) je dnes už známější než originál. Originál je ale jen jeden, a proto, i když klipově to není nic moc (co taky chtít v 70. letech), za poslech to stojí.

Together we will go our way, together we will leave some day.
Together your hand in my hand, together we will make the plans.
Together we will fly so high, together tell our friends goodbye.
Together we will start life new, together this is what we'll do.

ref.

Go west, life is peaceful there.
Go west, lots of open air.
Go west to begin life new.
Go west, this is what we'll do.
Go west, sun in winter time.
Go west, we will do just fine.
Go west where the skies are blue.
Go west, this and more we'll do.

Together we will love the beach, together we will learn and teach.
Together change our pace of life, together we will work and strive.
I love you, I know you love me; I want you happy and carefree.
So that's why I have no protest when you say you want to go west.

ref.

I know that there are many ways to live there in the sun or shade.
Together we will find a place to settle down and live with the space
without the busy pace back east, the hustling, rustling of the feet,
I know I'm ready to leave too, so this is what we're going to do,

ref.

Together, together, we'll go on our way

Together, together, we're leaving today...
