20130322 Scatman John - Scatman's World

 

2013년 3월 22일 오늘의 곡은 Scatman John의 Scatman's World입니다. 스캣맨 존은 1995년 53세라는 늦은 나이에 데뷔했는데요 그의 데뷔곡 Scatman이 전세적으로 메가 히트하여 세계적인 스타가 됩니다. 어릴때부터 말더듬 버릇이 있어 우울한 인생을 살았는데 이러한 그의 컴플렉스를 극복하고 스캣이란 장르로 그의 역량을 맘껏 펼치죠. 1999년 아쉽게도 폐암으로 돌아가시지만 그의 곡은 아직까지도 사람들에게 희망을 주고 있네요. Scatman's World는 그의 두번째 앨범 Scatman's World의 동명 타이틀곡으로 뭔가 슬프면서도 발랄한 느낌이 더욱 짠하네요. 눈물납니다. 가사도 너무 좋네요 ㅠ 우리나라에서도 누네띠네 광고에 나왔었는데 스캣맨존. 스캣맨존을 슈퍼마켓에서 찾으라고 했었는데 ㅠ 즐감하세요!

I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.

I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.

Everybody's talkin' something very shockin' just to
Keep on blockin' what they're feelin' inside but
Listen to me brother, you just keep on walkin' 'cause
You and me and sister ain't got nothin' to hide.
Scatman, fat man, black and white and brown man
Tell me 'bout the colour of your soul.
If part of your solution isn't ending the pollution
Then I don't want to hear your stories told.
I want to welcome you to Scatman's world

I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.

Everybody's born to compete as he chooses
But how can someone win if winning means that someone loses.
I sit and see and wonder what it's like to be in touch.
No wonder all my brothers and my sisters need a crutch.
I want to be a human being not a human doing.
I couldn't keep that pace up if I tried.
The source of my intention really isn't crime prevention.
My intention is prevention of the lie (yeah)
Welcome to the Scatman's world

I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.

I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy
