洋楽Official Video その1

2021年2月21日

英語に最初に触れたのって、たぶん音楽かなぁ。
これって何って言っているんだろ、意味はなんだろ、とかで辞書で調べたりして、それから英語が好きになったってな人も多いかと思います。今の若い子はYotubeとかなのかなぁ、どうなんでしょ。
てなわけで、有名な洋楽の歌のOfficial Video(音符マークがついているチャンネルの動画)を紹介していこうかなと思います。まぁ自分が好きな歌を紹介するだけです。ジャンルとか時代とかはバラバラです。尚、多分に私の趣味が含まれております(笑)

You Raise Me Up / Celtic Woman

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yfwlj0gba_k

ケルティック・ウーマン(Celtic Woman)は、アイルランド出身の女性で構成される音楽グループ。カバー曲なんですけど、このグループの歌が一番知られていると思います。元曲はこちら

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me

[Chorus]
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

[Chorus]
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

[Chorus]
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
[Chorus]
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

[Outro]
You raise me up to more than I can be

Take Me Home, Country Roads / John Denver

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vrEljMfXYo

ジブリアニメのおかげ?というか日本語の歌のほうで知っている人は多いかと思います。カントリー・ミュージックってマイナーなイメージがあるかもですが、実はめちゃくちゃ人気あるんですよねぇアメリカでは。アメリカの音楽といえばカントリーミュージック。これってあまり知られていないことかなと思います。

公式チャンネル

おまけ
私の好きなグループがカバーしているのでついで紹介。この曲が一番再生数多いんだと初めて知りました。ちなみにこちらはカントリーミュージックではなくブルーグラスミュージックという別ジャンルになります。

Take Me Home, Country Roads - The Petersens (LIVE) / The Petersens

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qap9Qm-Q894

[Verse 1]
Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze

[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

[Verse 2]
All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

[Bridge]
I hear her voice in the morning hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road, I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

[Outro]
Take me home, (Down) country roads
Take me home, (Down) country roads

Let It Be / The Beatles

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDYfEBY9NM4

ビートルズ、好きな歌は色々あるけど、ひとつあげるとするとこれかなということで。

[Verse 1]
When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, "Let it be"
And in my hour of darkness, she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, "Let it be"

[Chorus]
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

[Verse 2]
And when the brokenhearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

[Chorus]
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
[Verse 3]
And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me
Shine on 'til tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, "Let it be"

[Chorus]
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Oh there will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Don't Stop Me Now / Queen

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgzGwKwLmgM&list=LL&index=3&ab_channel=QueenOfficial

クイーンと言えばBohemian Rhapsodyのほうが代表曲かなとは思いますが、個人的に一番好きな曲なのでこちらを。

[Intro]
Tonight I'm gonna have myself
A real good time, I feel alive
And the world, I'll turn it
Inside out, yeah
I'm floating around in ecstasy
So, (Don't stop me now)
(Don't stop me) 'Cause I'm having
A good time, having a good time

[Verse 1]
I'm a shooting star leaping
Through the sky
Like a tiger defying
The laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing
By like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go
There's no stopping me

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm burning through the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees, that's why
They call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic
Man outta you
[Chorus]
(Don't stop me now)
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
(Don't stop me now)
If you wanna have a good time
Just give me a call
(Don't stop me now)
'Cause I'm having a good time
(Don't stop me now)
Yes, I'm having a good time
I don't wanna stop at all, yeah

[Verse 2]
I'm a rocket ship on my way
To Mars on a collision course
I am a satellite, I'm out of control
I'm a sex machine ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, explode!

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm burning through the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees, that's why
They call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic
Woman of you
[Bridge]
(Don't stop me, don't stop me
Don't stop me) Hey, hey, hey
(Don't stop me, don't stop me
Ooh, ooh, ooh) I like it

Have a good time, good time
(Don't stop me, don't stop me) Woah
Let loose, honey, all right

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm burning through the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees, that's why
They call me Mister Fahrenheit, hey
Travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic
Man outta you (Yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
(Don't stop me now)
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
(Don't stop me now)
If you wanna have a good time
Just give me a call (Ooh, alright)
(Don't stop me now)
'Cause I'm having a good time (Yeah, yeah)
(Don't stop me now)
Yes, I'm having a good time
I don't wanna stop at all
[Outro]
Ah, da da da da
Da da ah ah
Ah da da, ah ah ah

I Don't Want to Miss a Thing / Aerosmith

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkK8g6FMEXE&list=LL&index=11&ab_channel=AerosmithVEVO

Walk This Wayかこちらかどっちか迷ったけど、こっちほうが好きかなってことで。

[Verse 1]
I could stay awake just to hear you breathin'
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

[Chorus]
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you (even when I dream)
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing

[Verse 2]
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wonderin' if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just want to stay with you
In this moment forever
Forever and ever
[Chorus]
I don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you (even when I dream)
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't want to miss a thing

[Bridge]
I don't want to miss one smile
I don't want to miss one kiss
Well, I just want to be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close
I feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Yeah (yeah)
Yeah (yeah)
Yeah!

[Chorus]
Don't want to close my eyes
Don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you (even when I dream)
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
[Chorus]
I don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't want to miss a thing

[Outro]
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep, yeah
I don't want to miss a thing

Man! I Feel Like A Woman / Shania Twain

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJL4UGSbeFg

カントリーの女王ですね。シャナイア・トゥエイン。しばらくの間、名前の読み方がわからんかった人(笑)
日本に居るときには存じ上げなかった方なんですが、私はこの歌で知りました。ケーブルテレビ(カントリー専門チャンネルだったかな)でずっとこの曲がランキング1位になっていて、何回も聞くうちにいつの間にか覚えた曲。アルバム『Come On Over』の売上枚数は確か女性単独の史上最高記録だったかと思います。

[Intro]
Let's go, girls!
Come on!

[Verse 1]
I'm going out tonight
I'm feelin' alright
Gonna let it all hang out
Wanna make some noise
Really raise my voice
Yeah, I wanna scream and shout
No inhibitions
Make no conditions
Get a little outta line
I ain't gonna act politically correct
I only wanna have a good time

[Pre-Chorus]
The best thing about being a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun and...

[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, go totally crazy
Forget I'm a lady
Men's shirts, short skirts
Oh-oh-oh, really go wild
Yeah, doin' it in style
Oh-oh-oh, get in the action
Feel the attraction
Color my hair, do what I dare
Oh-oh-oh, I wanna be free
Yeah, to feel the way I feel
Man! I feel like a woman!
[Verse 2]
The girls need a break
Tonight we're gonna take
The chance to get out on the town
We don't need romance
We only wanna dance
We're gonna let our hair hang down

[Pre-Chorus]
The best thing about being a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun and...

[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, go totally crazy
Forget I'm a lady
Men's shirts, short skirts
Oh-oh-oh, really go wild
Yeah, doin' it in style
Oh-oh-oh, get in the action
Feel the attraction
Color my hair, do what I dare
Oh-oh-oh, I wanna be free
Yeah, to feel the way I feel
Man! I feel like a woman!

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
The best thing about being a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun (Fun, fun)

[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, go totally crazy
Forget I'm a lady
Men's shirts, short skirts
Oh-oh-oh, really go wild
Yeah, doin' it in style
Oh-oh-oh, get in the action
Feel the attraction
Color my hair, do what I dare
Oh-oh-oh, I wanna be free
Yeah, to feel the way I feel (To feel the way I feel)
Man! I feel like a woman!

[Outro]
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah
I get totally crazy
Can you feel it?
Come, come, come on, baby!
I feel like a woman!

もう25年近く前なんですね、これ。この可愛らしい女の子達も……って同級生だったわ。これは当時、世界的にものすごくヒットした歌だったと思います。最初何言っているのかさっぱりわからなかったなぁ。wannaって何?というレベルだったのでそれも当然かな(笑)

[Intro: Scary, Ginger]
Hahaha
Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want

If you want my future, forget my past
If you wanna get with me, better make it fast
Now don't go wasting my precious time
Get your act together, we could be just fine

[Pre-Chorus: Scary, Ginger]
I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
I wanna (Hey!), I wanna (Hey!), I wanna (Hey!), I wanna (Hey!)
I wanna really, really, really wanna "zig-a-zig", ah

[Chorus: All, Baby]
If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends
(Gotta get with my friends)
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is
[Verse 2: Sporty, Baby, Scary, Ginger, (Posh)]
Oh what you think about that, now you know how I feel
Say you could handle my love, are you for real?
(Are you for real?)
I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try
If you really bug me, then I'll say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus: Scary, Ginger]
Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
I wanna (Hey!), I wanna (Hey!), I wanna (Hey!), I wanna (Hey!)
I wanna really, really, really wanna "zig-a-zig", ah

[Chorus: All, Baby, Scary]
If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends
(Gotta get with my friends)
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give
(You've got to give)
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is

[Verse 3: Scary, Ginger, All]
So here's a story from A to Z
You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully
We got Em in the place who likes it in your face
We got G like MC who likes it on an-
Easy V doesn't come for free, she's a real lady
And as for me, haha, you'll see
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
[Chorus: All, Baby, Scary]
If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends
(Gotta get with my friends)
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give
(You've got to give)
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is

[Outro: All, Scary]
If you wanna be my lover
(You gotta, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta slam)
Make it last forever
(Slam, slam, slam, slam)
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and "zig-a-zig", ah
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
If you wanna be my lover

I Want It That Way / Backstreet Boys

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fndeDfaWCg

アイドル繋がりということで、1999年だったかな、この歌のときが絶頂期だったグループ。今でも活動していたかと思います。非常に聞き取りやすく、英語リスニングの練習ってことで当時よく聞いてました(TVで流れていたので聞いていただけですが)。

[Intro: AJ]
Yeah-eh-eh

[Verse 1: Brian & Nick]
You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

[Chorus: Nick & All]
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

[Verse 2: AJ with Brian]
Am I your fire?
Your one desire
Yes, I know it's too late
But I want it that way
[Chorus: AJ, All & Brian]
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

[Bridge: Kevin with AJ]
Now I can see that we're falling apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me

[Reprise: Howie & All]
You are my fire
The one desire
You are (you are, you are, you are)

[Interlude: Nick & All]
Don't wanna hear you say
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say (oh, yeah)
I want it that way
[Chorus: Brian, All, (Nick) & AJ]
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say (don't wanna hear you say)
I want it that way
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say (never wanna hear you say, yeah)
I want it that way

[Outro: AJ]
'Cause I want it that way

Smooth Criminal / Michael Jackson

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_D3VFfhvs4

このVHSテープ持ってたなぁ。当時擦り切れるほど繰り返し見てました。スリラーとかBADとかのほうが有名ですけど、ビデオではこの曲が一番好きでした。この曲の有名な部分は「パン」「茶」「宿直」(空耳アワー見た時、爆笑しました)と7:05用あたりのダンスですね。MJの歌は好きなのが多いのですが、特に好きなのは、同ビデオに収録されていた「Man In The Mirror」と後年出した「Heal The World」かな。どれも一度は聞いてもらいたい名曲です。

[Intro]
Aaow!

Cha!
Shoo-cha-choo-cha!

[Verse 1]
As he came into the window
Was a sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
She ran underneath the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down, it was her doom

[Pre-Chorus]
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
[Chorus]
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you're okay?
There's a sound at the window
Then he struck you — a crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom

[Post-Chorus]
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?

[Refrain]
You've been hit by—
You've been hit by—
A Smooth Criminal

Aaow!
[Verse 2]
So they came into the outway
It was Sunday, what a black day
Every time I tried to find him
There were no clues, they’re behind him
And they end up never knowing
Who’s the suspect or what to expect
Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Sounding heartbeats, intimidation

[Pre-Chorus]
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
Annie, are you okay? Are you okay?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?

[Chorus]
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you're okay?
There's a sound at the window
Then he struck you — a crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
[Post-Chorus]
Annie, are you okay? Annie, are you okay?
Are you okay, Annie?

[Refrain]
You've been hit by—
You've been struck by—
A Smooth Criminal

[Interlude]
Choo-cha, choo-cha
Aaow!

Okay, I want everybody to clear the area right now!

Aaow!
Hoo!
Hoo!
Hoo!
Hoo!
Aaow!

[Outro]
Annie, are you okay? (I don't know)
Will you tell us that you're okay? (I don't know)
There's a sound at the window (I don't know)
Then he struck you, a crescendo Annie? (I don't know)
He came into your apartment (I don't know)
Left bloodstains on the carpet (I don't know why, baby)
And then you ran into the bedroom (Help me)
You were struck down
It was your doom Annie (Dag gone it)
Annie are you okay? (Dag gone it-baby)
Will you tell us that you're okay? (Dag gone it-baby)
There's a sound at the window (Dag gone it-baby)
Then he struck you, a crescendo Annie (Hoo! Hoo!)
He came into your apartment, (Dag gone it)
Left bloodstains on the carpet (Hoo!)
And then you ran into the bedroom (Hoo! Hoo!)
You were struck down (Dag gone it)
It was your doom Annie (Aaow!)

[Outro]
Aaow!

Aaow!
Shoo-cha-choo, shoo-cha-choo!
Aaow!

Aaow!

Underneath Your Clothes / Shakira

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwBwKcQ1k84

Shakira 超有名な方ですね。この歌というかこの人はノキアのCMで知りました。英語がなんとなく違うなぁ、ヨーロッパの人が歌っているのかなぁというイメージだったんですが、まさかのコロンビア。わかるかい(笑)

ちなみにノキアのCMですが、公式ではないのですが動画あったのでリンクはっておきます。有名なCMなので見たことある人も多いんじゃないかなと思います。

[Verse 1]
You're a song
Written by the hands of God
Don't get me wrong
'Cause this might sound to you a bit odd
But you own the place
Where all my thoughts go hiding
And right under your clothes
Is where I find them

[Chorus]
Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl, honey

[Verse 2]
'Cause of you
I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you
I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone
When the party's over
We will still belong to each other
[Chorus]
Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl, honey
Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl
For being such a, ah, ah

[Bridge]
I love you more than all that's on the planet
Movin', talkin', walkin', breathin'
You know it's true
Oh, baby, it's so funny
You almost don't believe it
As every voice is hanging from the silence
Lamps are hanging from the ceiling
Like a lady tied to her manners
I'm tied up to this feeling
[Chorus]
Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl, honey
Underneath your clothes
Whoa-oh-oh
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl
For being such a good girl

All Star / Smash Mouth

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jWHffIx5E

この系統の音楽で私がカラオケで唯一歌える歌。当時すんげー練習した記憶があります。今でも印象深い歌。最初は舌が回らない?口がついていかなくて非常に苦労しました。こちらで練習できるみたいです。興味ある方はどうぞ(笑)

[Verse 1]
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

[Verse 2]
It's a cool place, and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how 'bout yours?
That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored
[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
All that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

[Interlude]
Go for the moon
Go for the moon
Go for the moon
Go for the moon

[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars

[Verse 3]
Somebody once asked, “could I spare some change for gas?
I need to get myself away from this place"
I said, "Yep, what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself and we could all use a little change"
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
You'll never know if you don't go (Go!)
You'll never shine if you don't glow

[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

[Outro]
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

Lets Get Rocked / DEF LEPPARD

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkWyLZ3AaLU&ab_channel=DefLeppardVEVO

第1段ラストは私の青春バンド(笑)デフ・レパードは二年ほど前に来阪したんですよね。もう来ることないだろうなぁと思ったのでZepp Namba行きました。まわりみんな同世代のおっさんばっかりでした(笑) 今の若い人はたぶん知らないと思うけど、世界的にもすごいバンドなんですよーこの人達。Do you wanna get rocked?  最高です。

[Intro]
Do you wanna get rocked?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

[Verse 1]
I'm your average ordinary everyday kid
Happy to do nothing, in fact that's what I did
I got a million ways to make my day but daddy don't agree
Because when I try to get away, he says, he got plans for me
"Get your butt right out of bed"
Stop bugging me
"Get up and move your sleepy head"
Don't shake my tree
He said, "Mow the lawn", who me?
"Walk the dog", not my style, man
"Take out the trash", no way
"Tidy your room", come on, get real
Sorry Dad, got to disappear
Let's get the rock out of here

[Chorus 1]
Seven day weekend, up all night
In at the deep end, hang on tight
It won't take a minute, it won't take long
So get on in it, come on, come on, come on
[Chorus 2]
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way, get it night and day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

[Verse 2]
I'm your average ordinary everyday dude
Driving with my baby to get her in the mood
She's dialing through my radio and I'm ready to make my move
What she got ain't rock 'n' roll and it really blew my groove
It was Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven
It makes me want to scream
Bach, Tchaikovsky, violins
Turn it off, that ain't my scene
Well, I'm sorry, girl, here's my confession
I suppose a rock's out of the question

[Chorus 1]
Seven day weekend, up all night
In at the deep end, hang on tight
It won't take a minute, it won't take long
So get on in it, come on, come on, come on

[Chorus 2]
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way, get it night and day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
[Verse 3]
Hey, all I want to do is take a ride into the blue
Every time I want to love you, I get stuck inside my room
Heaven knows I'm sick and tired of dancing with this broom
I feel lucky today
Hey, look at that, man
Do you want to get rocked?
Do you want to get rocked?
Ho, it won't take you a minute
It won't take that long
So get on, get with it
Oh, come on everybody

[Chorus 2]
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Get on top baby
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Do you wanna, do you wanna?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Get on top of it
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Love to rock your body baby
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way, get it night and day
Let's get out and play, rock the night away
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
[Outro]
Do you want to get rocked?
