🎙️ARTIST: Labi Siffre
📣TITLE: I Got The …
💿ALBUM: Remember My Song
📆RELEASED: (1975)
Écrite et composée par Labi Siffre, « I Got The » figure sur le cinquième album de l’artiste, Happy, sorti en 1975.
Surtout connu pour son beat souvent samplé, notamment dans « My Name Is » de Eminem (écoutez-le à partir de 2’09),et sur « Street is Watching » de Jay-Z, le morceau a tout d’un classique de la soul des années 70. Dansant, il est richement orchestré, avec ces nappes de violons très caractéristiques de l’époque. Un génie qui à construit énormément de carrière
Lyrics📍📍📍
[Verse 1]
I got the blues but I don’t mind
All I have to do is get to you
And then I feel just fine
You’re so good, the way you give
So good, you’re the best there is
[Verse 2]
I got the blues, got it oh so bad
When I think of me it’s hard to be
A person quite so sad
You got the answer and it makes me glad
When I’m feelin’ small you give me rock n’ roll
And then I feel laid back
You’re so good, the way you give
So good, you’re the best there is
[Verse 3]
Just a lonely soul
Slowly dyin’
I was smilin’ hard
But I was lyin’
Then you sailed along
With your sweet dream
When you stole my heart
I was livid
Mornin’ come, sun don’t shine
I’ll get by without you
I was lost, but now I’m found
Tell me love it was you
Mornin’ come, sun don’t shine
I’ll get by without you
I was lost, but now I’m found
Tell me love it was you
Just a lonely soul (Mornin’ come, sun don’t shine)
Slowly dyin’ (I’ll get by without you)
I was smilin’ hard (I was lost, but now I’m found)
But I was lyin’ (Tell me love it was you)
Then you sailed along (Mornin’ come, sun don’t shine)
With your sweet dream (I’ll get by without you)
When you stole my heart (I was lost, but now I’m found)
I was livid (Tell me love it was you)
