Josh Rouse - 1972...

Josh Rouse - 1972...



Grande álbum, grande artista!!! Este já o vi na aula magna com big band. De sonho. Checked!
De ouvir do início ao fim e fazer repeat!

1. "1972" 3:48

"She was feeling 1972
Grooving to a Carole King tune
Is it too late, baby?
Is it too late?

That boy was always up to no good
Smoking pot and playing pool
In the afternoon
Unemployed and high

We're going through the changes
Hoping for a replacement
Until we find a way out of this hole

Spanish girl with the tattoo
Working nights at the drive through
And she asks herself
Could this be all?

Screwing in a motel room
Watching news on channel two
Victoria, tell me
Where is your dream?

We're going through some changes
Hoping for a replacement
Until we find a way out of this

We're going through the changes
Hoping for a replacement
Until we find a way out of this
A way out of this hole

Out of this hole
Out of this hole, ah ah"


2. "Love Vibration" 4:51
youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRdSG31DVqw

"Step out into the sun
Step out into the world and love someone
Save yourself from hate
Save yourself from hate and all the hassle

And you people all know what I'm talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what he's talkin' about
And you people all know what I'm talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what he's talkin' about

Spread the love vibration
Spread the love vibration

Now everybody's scared
Scared of being lonely and abandoned
If you find someone who cares
If you find someone to love and understand you

Then you people all know what I'm talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what he's talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what I'm talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what he's talkin' about

Spread the love vibration
Spread the love vibration

Yeah, you people all know what I'm talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what he's talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what I'm talkin' about
Yeah, you people all know what he's talkin' about
If you people all know what I'm talkin' about

Spread the love vibration
Spread the love vibration
Spread the love vibration
Spread the love vibration"




3. "Sunshine (Come on Lady)" 2:54
youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XUR9JoTW1E

"Forget all your little problems
Forget the boy you left at the bar
I got a stash been savin' for months now
California's not very far

Come on lady
Take this bum and make him right
You're my steady
You're the one who makes me feel
Sunshine

One that makes me feel sunshine

I want to be your baby daddy
I want to be your self-employed
So pack up the van and we'll go drivin
To the coastal state
Uh-huh

Come on lady
Take this bum and make him right
You're my steady
You're the one that makes me feel

So come on lady
Give this bum a sense of pride
You're my steady
You're the one that makes me feel
Feel
Sunshine

One that makes me feel sunshine
One that makes me feel sunshine

One that makes me feel sunshine"



Mega tema, leva-nos até 1972... Como se estivéssemos lá. Só consigo imaginar, ma o ritmo está todo lá. A flauta a fazer lembrar Gil Scot Heron. 

"He decided he'd be better off alone
So he left his wife and child and went solo
It is summertime, Atlanta's hot as hell
He thinks back to what he had, and where he's now

James can't stop hangin' out in the bars
He's on top, breakin' all the ladies hearts
James ain't got a problem with alcohol
He can't stop, hangin' out in the bars

Found a payphone and the courage it did swell
What to say, James never really knew that well
His apology was more than they could stand
"I'm just a poor excuse for what some call a man"

James can't stop hangin' out in the bars
He's on top, breakin' all the ladies hearts
James ain't got a problem with alcohol
He can't stop, hangin' out in the bars

"So I want you to be spirited and brave
Find someone to love, but never take my place"
He hung the phone up and defeated his own life
Disappeared into the closest neon sign

James can't stop hangin' out in the bars
He's on top, breakin' all the ladies hearts
James ain't got a problem with alcohol
He can't stop, hangin' out in the bars

James can't stop"



5. "Slaveship" 3:10
"A slaveship, lost at sea
A slaveship, lost at sea
And I'm drowning your waters deep
I'm drowning your waters deep

A spaceship in the country
A spaceship in the country
And we're flying into green
We're flying into green

And I told you a thousand times
(Sold you a thousand lies)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?

The city, there's an empty street
The city, there's an empty street
And we're dancing to the lonely beat
We're dancing to the lonely beat

Your building is where we'll meet
Your building is where we'll meet
And I'm hungry, lets get something to eat
I'm hungry, lets get something to eat

'Cos I told you a thousand times
(Sold you a thousand lies)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?

Your daddy, he ain't like me
Your daddy, he ain't like me
I'm striving, I so wanna be
I'm striving, I got to agree

One day girl, you'll be my queen
One day girl, I'll be your king
And we'll reign in a castle supreme
We'll reign in a castle supreme

'Cos I told you a thousand times
(Sold you a thousand lies)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?

'Cos I told you a thousand times
(Sold you a thousand lies)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?"



6. "Comeback (Light Therapy)" 4:38
ao vivo (sim, tão bom como em estúdio!) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22ypyjaeffk
Um dos melhores temas deste disco - Come back!!! Atenção à flauta, aos violinos... todo o ritmo meio disco!!! 1972... O solo de guitarra meio insinuoso, há uma parte que faz lembrar qualquer coisa dos Rolling Stones... o xilofone!!! Que música.. Come back!!!

"I've been waiting for the longest time
I want you to come back
Maybe if the sun would shine
It'd bring my happy back
In the dark
So tired of waking up and it's dark
So tired of being stuck on my own here
Norway is cold dear
And here comes june
The sun is gonna shine in june
The doctor says I'll feel better soon

Fills my vitamin D pills
He hands me the big bill
Cause I've been waiting for the longest time
I want you to come back
Maybe if the sun would shine
You'd bring my happy back
I'm gonna stay on this mountain high
Til you come running back
Don't leave me hangin' out on that line
I want you to come back
I want you to come back
I miss my serotonin
And my days are goin nowhere fast
The language is so foreign
And I can never understand
Understand
Come back (x 11)
Yeah cause I've been waiting for the longest time
I want you to come back
Maybe if the sun would shine
You'd bring my happy back
I'm gonna stay on this mountain high
Til you come running back
Don't leave me hanging out on that line
I want you to come back
I want you to come back
I want you to come back
I want you to come back
Yeah
Waiting for the longest time
Waiting for the longest time
I want you to come back"



7. "Under Your Charms" 3:45
youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiChRckK8zM

"Only half of the time do you tell me just what you want
Only half of the time do you tell me just what you want
Can I get some contact? Can I get some contact from you?
Can I get some contact with what is real?

It's the end of the night and I'm feelin' sexual
It's the end of the night and I'm feelin' sexual
Can I get some love back? Can I get some love back from you?
Can I get some love back that you conceal?

And now I've fallen under your charm
And now I fall into your arms
Where I feel alright

In the blink of an eye do we do what's natural
Maybe once or twice do we do what's natural
Is it just a love task? Is it too much to ask from you?
Is it just a love task or do you feel?

And now I've fallen under your charm
And now I fall into your arms
And now I've fallen under your charm
And now I fall into your arms
Where I feel alright, it's where I'll stay tonight

It's only half of the time do you tell me just what you want
Only half of the time do you tell me just what you want
Can I get some contact? Can I get some contact from you?
Can I get some contact with what is real?"



8. "Flight Attendant" 4:46
Muito bom, parece música de um baile!!! Meio valsa, meio rumba!!! O piano insinuante!!!

"When I was
A little baby
A mamma's boy
No one could save me
From those kids at school

They would bully
They would tease
They would taunt me
Haunt me

You're such a pretty boy
You're such a pretty boy
You're such a pretty boy
You're such a pretty boy

Fear
I grew up so scared
The bible belt
Redneck lifestyle
One day I'll fly free

In the airplane
Where's my seat?
Where's my champagne?
Champagne

I'm such a pretty boy
I'm such a pretty boy
I'm such a pretty boy
I'm such a pretty boy

Heaven knows the lengths I go to please them every day
And they don't even notice when I'm
Down

Such a pretty boy
Such a pretty boy
Such a pretty boy
Such a pretty boy

Such a pretty boy
Such a pretty boy
Such a pretty boy
Such a pretty boy

Hotels were closed
And the airport was clean
He was stranded alone
In his southwest dream

Hotels were closed
And the airport was clean
I was stranded alone
In my southwest dream"



9. "Sparrows Over Birmingham" 4:59
youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRWf4KyKW8o
Muito boa, meio gospel - e faz parte de uma banda sonora de um filme engraçado The Girl Next Door.

"Fell down on both knees
You were young
Bones still soft
Legs fell numb

Oh how those sparrows sang for you

So you grew up
An isolated pup
You had some books
You had some love

Oh God was watching over you
Oh how those sparrows sang for you

You witnessed a man
A holy man
Touched your head
With his gentle hands

Oh God was watching over you

Lived in a house
In birmingham
A preacher's son
The Lord's plan

Oh God was watching over you
Oh how those sparrows sang for two

When you arrived
He carried you there
Near the preacher's son
Your only love

Oh God was watching over you

Wedding bells rang
(Wedding bells ring)
Church choir sang
(Church choir sing)
A gospel song
(Whoa-oh oh whoa)
A beautiful one
(A beautiful one)

Oh such a melancholy tune
(It's a sad tune mmmm-mmm)
Oh how it reminds me of you"



10. "Rise" 5:10
Boa música para terminar, Catch the last ride on a Brooklyn train (segundo os actores do How I M;et your mother) subúrbios que nem fazem parte da cidade NY!!!

"Think I'm gonna pass out
Think I'll just lay down right here
Would someone turn the light out?
I'll cover myself with a jacket, I'll still
Catch the last ride on a Brooklyn train
30 years old and nothing's changed
Spent hours on a landline,
Hopin' you would find time for me
Showed up at your door, it was a scene
I was so sure,
You would be free
I should have caught a ride on a Brooklyn train
30 years old and nothing's changed
And I'll rise to greet you in the morning... Time
And I'll rise to greet you in the morning
Tried so hard to ignore
All the feelings I have for you,
They won't leave
I'm so crazy
How I wish you would come around
And we could meet
So catch the last ride on the Brooklyn train
Meet me on a corner and I'll entertain
And I'll rise to greet you in the morning... Time
And I'll rise to greet you in the morning
It's an honest thing, and honest things they last
I think they're gonna come and carry me away...
I think they're gonna come and carry me away...
I think they're gonna come and carry me away...
From you...
I think they're gonna come and carry me away...
I think they're gonna come and carry me away...
I think they're gonna come and carry me away...
From you... From you... From you..."
