1a canzone al giorno

Aspettando Aretha


Cinque giorni fa ci ha lasciato Aretha Franlin. I post erano già pronti e poi, conoscendola, poco, non avrei saputo cosa mettere. Mi ha aiutato oggi la solita Radio Capital che ha mandato in onda un bellissimo duetto incirso nel 1986 con George Michael dal titolo "I knew you were waiting (for me)" pubblicato nell'album "Aretha". Appena iniziata mi sono ricordato benissimo della canzone e di chi la cantava anche senza presentazione dello speaker di turno.. L'attesa di tutti e due purtroppo è finita e si sono ricongiunti nel paradiso dei cantanti. Con questa perla vi risparmio anche una possibile novità e anche domani vi va di lusso visto che ho già deciso cosa mettere e non è un nuovo brano. Buon asccolto e buona giornata!!I knew you were waiting (for me) (Aretha Franklin & George Michael)Like a warrior that fightsAnd wins the battleI know the taste of victoryThough I went through some nightsConsumed by the shadowsAnd was crippled emotionallySomehow I made it through the heartace, yes I didI escapedI found my way out of the darkness, kept my faithKept my faithAnd the river was deep I didn't falterWhen the mountain was highI still believedWhen the valley was lowIt didn't stop me, no noI knew you were waitingKnew you were waiting for me, uh uhWith and endless desireI kept on searchingSure in time our eyes would meetAnd like the bridge is on fireThe hurt is overOne touch and you set me freeNo, I don't regret a single moment, no, I don'tI know you don't, looking backWhen I think of all those disappointmentsI just laugh (I know you do) I just laughWhen the river was deep, I didn't falterWhen the mountain was highI still believedWhen the valley was lowIt didn't stop meI knew you were waitingI knew you were waiting for meSo we were drawn together through destinyI know this love we share was meant to be(I knew you were waiting)(I knew you were waiting)I knew you were waiting, (I knew you were waiting for me)I even thought that love(I still believe) when the valley was low(It didn't stop me) nothing can stop me now(Knew you were waiting, know I knew you were waiting for me)when the mountain was high(I still believe) oh, when the valley was low(It didn't stop me) no, it didn't stop me(Knew you were waiting for me, knew you were waiting for me)oh yeah(I still believe) oh, I still believe(It didn't stop me) do you know it didn't stop me, now?(Knew you were waiting) somewhere, some way, some place, somehowFor mewhen the valley was low(I still believe) I still believe(I believe, I believe, I believe) it didn't stop me now (oh, it couldn't stop me now)
