Uma música do Paul MCartney por dia - # 157 I'll Get You



Versão atualizada de uma música dos Beatles de 1963: I´ll Get You. Muito legal.

I'll Get You
Lennon / McCartney

Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Imagine, I'm in love with you,
It's easy because I know,
I've imagined I'm in love with you,
Many, many, many times before.
It's not like me to pretend,
But I'll get you in the end,
Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah.

I think about you night and day,
I need you and it's true.
When I think about you, I can say,
I'm never, never, never, never blue.
So I'm telling you, my friend,
That I'll get you, I'll get you in the end,
Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah.

Well, there's gonna be a time,
Well I'm gonna change your mind
So you might as well resign yourself to me, oh yeah.

Imagine, I'm in love with you,
It's easy because I know,
I've imagined I'm in love with you,
Many, many, many times before.
It's not like be to pretend,
But I'll get you in the end,
Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Woh yeah.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #156 Figure of Eight



Figure of Eight não é das minhas favoritas, mas vale entrar aqui, porque é de uma fase dele de que gosto muito.

Figure Of Eight
Paul McCartney

(Well) You've Got Me Dancing In A Figure Of Eight,
Don't Know If I'm Coming Or Going, I'm Early Or Late.
Round And Round The Ring I Go,
I Want To Know, I Want To Know,
Why Can't We Travel A Continuous Line?
Make Love Reliable Convenant All The Time.
Up And Down The Hills I Go, I Got To Know, I Got To Know.

Is Is Better To Love Another
Than To Go Go For A Walk In The Dark?
Is It Better To Love Than To Give In To Hate?
Yeah We'd Better Take Good Care Of Each Other
Avoid Slipping Back Off The Straight And Narrow,
It's Better By Far Than Getting Stuck In A Figure Of Eight.

(Well) Figure It Out For Yourself Little Girl,
It Don't Go Nowhere At All,
It's Nothing More Than A Tape Loop In A Big Dance Hall.

You've Got Me Running...
You've Got Me Running...

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #155 That Was Me



Música legal do disco memory Almost Full.

That Was Me
Paul McCartney

That was me, in the scout camp, in the school play
Spade and bucket by the sea, that was me

That was me, playing conkers at the bus stop
On a blanket in the blue bells, that was me

The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me

Well that was me, royal iris, on the river
Mersy beat n' with the band, that was me

Yeah that was me, sweating cobwebs under contract
In the cellar, on TV, that was me

The same me that stands here now
If fate agreed that all of this
To make a lifetime, who am I to disagree, that was me

That was me, accapella at the alter
in the middle of the picture, that was me

That was me at the party, sweatin' cobwebs
In a cellar on TV ya that was me

The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me
That was me, ya, that was me!

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #154 Follow Me



Follow Me é bem típica do Paul, na letra e na melodia. Para começar bem a semana.

Follow Me
Paul McCartney

You lift up my spirits, you shine on my soul
Whenever I'm empty, you make me feel whole
I can rely on you, to guide me through, any situation
You hold up a sign that reads, follow me.

You give me direction, you show me the way
You give me a reason, to face every day
I can depend on you, to send me to, any destination
You hold up a sign that reads, follow me, follow me.

Down the track of lonelines, down the path of love
Through the words of heartache, to the end
On the shores of sorrow, where the waves of hope crash in
The perfect place for me to find a friend. ahh yeah yeah yeah, oh

You lead to places, that I've never been
Uncovering secrets, that I've never seen
I can rely on you, to guide me through, any situation
You hold up a sign that reads, follow me, follow me,
Follow me, follow me,
Follow me, follow me

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #152 Hey Jude



Hey Jude volta aqui, na versão tocada no RJ agora em maio, por recomendação do Chico Mazali. Maravilhosa, como sempre! Embaixo, a versão de 1993 no Pacaembu, em São Paulo, a que tive o privilègio de assistir, colada no palco. E com direito a um pedacinho da tolaha que ele jgou na plateia. Inesquecível!

Hey Jude
Lennon/McCartney

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid,
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain,
Hey, Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

Da da da da da da da da da.

Hey, Jude, don't let me down,
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with.
And don't you know that it's just you,hey Jude you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Da da da da da da da da da.

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better...

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #151 Wild Life



Wild Life é a música que dá nome ao primeiro álbum dos Wings. Muito boa, assim como o vídeo, uma raridade de 1973. E continua atualíssima.

Wild Life
Paul McCartney

While take a walk thru an African park one day,
I saw a sign say, "The animals have the right of way".

Wild life, whatever happened to,
Wild life, the animals in the zoo?

We're breathing a lot,
a lot of political nonsense in the air.

You're making it hard for the people who live in there.
You're moving so fast, but, baby, you know not where.
Wild life, (wild life), what's gonna happen to
Wild life, (wild life), the animals in the zoo?

You'd better stop, there's animals ev'rywhere,
And man is the top, an animal too,
And, man, you just got to care.

Wild life, what's gonna happen to,
Wild life, the animals in the zoo?

You're breathing a lot of polical nonsense in the air.

Wild life, (wild life), what's gonna happen to
(what's gonna happen to) (what's gonna happen to)
Wild life, (wild life), the animals in the zoo?
(what's gonna happen to) (what's gonna happen to)
Wild life, what ever happened to?
What ever happened to?
