20130414 The Human League - Don't You Want Me

2013년 4월 14일 오늘의 곡은 The Human League의 Don't You Want Me입니다. 휴먼리그는 1977년도에 영국에서 결성된 혼성 뉴웨이브 신스팝 그룹으로 특유의 우울한 분위기지만 경쾌한 뉴웨이브 사운드가 특징입니다. 이 곡은 1982년도에 발매된 4집 앨범 Love And Dancing의 싱글곡으로 휴먼리그의 가장 대표적인 곡인대요. 1982년도 빌보드 차트 1위를 차지할 정도로 큰 인기를 얻었습니다. 필립 오키와 수잔 앤설리, 조안 캐서럴의 보컬이 조화를 이룬 멋진 곡이지요. 이 곡 외에도 Fascination, Human, Tell Me When 등의 노래도 들어보시길 추천합니다. 즐감하세요!

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up
And turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too.

Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me

It's much too late to find
When you think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry

Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew I'd find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good at times
I still love you
But now I think it's time I lived my life on my own
I guess it's just what I must do

Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me

It's much too late find
When you think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry

Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!

[REPEAT x3]
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!
