20130124 Sly & The Family Stone - If You Want Me To Stay

 

 2013년 1월 24일 오늘의 곡은 60, 70년대 Soul & Funky 락그룹 Sly & The Family Stone 입니다. 뮤직비디오가 없는 관계로 Live 영상보다는 원음그대로의 영상을 링크합니다. 처음 깔리는 베이스 라인이 정말 일품입니다. 60, 70년대에는 잘 없던 흑인 락그룹으로 멜로디 좋은 곡들이 참 많습니다. 우연히 Youtube를 뒤적거리다 알게된 그룹으로 특히 이 노래를 들으면 왠지 모르게 눈물이 맺히는게 짠합니다. 추억들이 생각나는 노래 같아요. Smilin', Running Away, Family Affair, Thank You, Stand!, Dance To The music, Everyday People도 꼭 들어보세요. 즐감하세요!

슬라이 앤 더 패밀리 스톤 - 니가 내 곁에 있길 원한다면

If you want me to stay,
I'll be around today,
to be available for you to see.

But I am about to go,
And then you'll know,
For me to stay here I got to be me.

You'll never be in doubt,
That's what it's all about,
You can't take me for granted and smile.

Count the days I'm gone
Forget reachin' me by phone
Because I promise I'll be gone for a while.

And when you see me again,
I hope that you have been,
The kind of person....that you really are now.

Got to get in straight,
How could I ever be late,
When you're my woman taking up my time.

Whoa, oh how could I ever allow,
I guess I wonder how,
I could get out a pocket for fun. HOW HOW!!

When you know that you're never number two,
Number one's gonna be number one,
ohh oww oohh

I'll be good,
I wish I could
I get this message over to you now.

ahhh, yeah, message, mmmm

When you see me again,
I hope that you have been,
The kind of person you really are now.

I'll be so good, oh
I wish I could,
I get this message over to you now.

ahhh, yeah.....
