私の昔のお気に入り、80’sの曲の1つ[ Holiday Rap]をご紹介したので、今回は今現在お気に入りの曲をご紹介します。
Sean Kingstonという人の「Take You There」という曲。
私は音楽にあまりこだわりがなくて(節操がないとも言う。 笑)耳障りがよく、ノリの良いダンス曲なら、ラップであろうとロックであろうとすぐに気に入ってしまいます。あまり曲のジャンルも区別がつきません。この曲もカーラジオで聞くだけで、今回 You Tubeで検索するまでどんな人が歌ってるかさえ知りませんでしたが、リズムがなんとも心地良い♪本物なのか歌の中でだけなのかわかりませんけど、ジャマイカ訛りもなんとも言えないいい感じ。(笑)
やはり自然と踊りたくなってしまいます。
でも詞を読んでみたら、とてもとても哀しい詞でした。
We can move to the tropics
Sip pina coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can move to the slums
Where killers get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take you(I could take you...)
I could take you(I could take you...)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take you (I could take you...)
I could take you(I could take you...)
Shorty I could take you there
Baby girl I know it's rough but come with me
We can take a trip to the hood
It's no problem girl it's my city
I could take you there
Little kid with guns only 15
Roam in the streets up to no good
When gun shots just watch us, run quickly
I could show you where
As long you're with me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Baby it's up to you
It's whatever you like
Shorty come with me it's no worry
I know the bad men them where they ah stay
Police fly pursuit in a hurry
this is no gun play
Don't be scared in a deh West Indies
I's Jamaica, that's where I'm from
Might see something you're not used to
Welcome to the slums
As long you're with me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradaise
Baby It's up to you,
It's whatever you like
Oh me(oh me)
Can go(can go)
To a place(to a place)
I know you're gonna like(oh oh oh)
The beach(the beach)
The breeze(the breeze)
West Indies, I call it paradice
