今日の一曲:U2 & Mary J. Blige - One
名曲。黒人R&BシンガーがU2をカバーするって意外だけれど、実際に聞いてみると全然違和感がないのにびっくり。もっともU2のこの曲をカバーできるほど力のあるシンガーって、白人でそうそう思いつかない。それにしても、MJBノリすごいな。格好良すぎ。二の腕も太いし。ここまで歌われちゃうと、U2でこの曲やりにくいだろうな。u2が完全にバックバンドになっているよ(笑)。
One
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for itDid I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it'sToo late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
carry each other
hurry each other
OneHave you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your headDid I ask too much?
More than a lot.
You gave me nothing,
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you've got is hurtOne love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each otherOne...
One...extended version
Can You hear us coming Lord
Can You hear us call
Feel us knocking
We're knocking at Your door
