Minne Forget Me Not (feat. Leon J.)
レビュー
1月に新曲”You Got 2 Love”、4月に同曲のUK Remix、6月にはラスベガスで行ったライブ音源2曲をリリースと精力的に活動しているセント・ポール・ピーターソン。
Minneapolis Media Instituteのレオン・J(Leon J)とfDELUXEのアルバムにも賛歌したブライアン・パワーズ(Brian "Snowman" Powers)が参加した新曲は、'18年にダリル・ホール&ジョン・オーツがトレインと組んで、生まれ故郷のフィラデルフィアの事を歌った”Philly Forget Me Not”をカヴァーです。
カヴァーと言ってもタイトル通り”Philly=フィラデルフィア"ではなく”Minne=ミネアポリス"に変え、歌詞もホール&オーツの代表曲"Rich Girl"の部分を”uptown”に変更したり、ファースト・アヴェニュー等ミネアポリスの地名に変更されてます。
特に終盤のラップ部はミネアポリスとプリンスを讃えていてグッっと来ます。
I've been living outside of minne
Yeah, I'm so far away
I've been gone for more than a minute
Is the neighbourhood the same?All the kids on the corner
California never had that thing
I remember uptown in the summer
Like yesterdayMinne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
(Come on Minne don't forget me now)
(Whooo whooooooo heeeeeeeeeeeee)
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me notGoing back on first ave and 7th
There was music all night
Baby when the hands hit eleven
Minnesota came to life
(Gotta play the funk 'till ya get off)All the kids on the corner
California never had that thing
(baby they got no greave)
I remember uptown in the summer
Like yesterday
(yeahhh)Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
(Come on Minne don't forget me now, oooh uhooo)
Don't forget me
(Heeeeeeeeeeeee)
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me notEvery time I go away from ya
I can feel my mama wait for me
Minne I would never change on ya
You ain't always sunny honey
But you love me backOne of the blessings we've been given
Is that summer time livin'
Overdue sunshine, but we'll always be chillin'
I Wasn't born in the midwest, but it's where my heart rests
I wear on my chest
(Baby let me show ya)
Minneapolis family style metropolis
Cities twin an element, history a testament
Just look at our prince
I'll never forget him, formerly know as and fearless
He Became a legend
Whole world shedding purple tears together
(Purple Rain,Purple Rain)
Rain down upon us and live in our hearts forever
In the park of paisley
(Paisley)
Musical genius lovked away in the vault we
(Wait for the music)
May never get to hear the songs of yesteryear
But i'm grateful for all of the music given to our ears
(We're so grateful)
And we're all about the music that be trending in our time
Out of minnesota
Party like it's Nineteen ninety nineMinne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
(Come on Minne don't forget me now, ooh whoo)
Don't forget me
(Heeeeeeeeeeeee)
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
(Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah)
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me not
(Come on Minne don't forget me now, ooh whoo)
Don't forget me
(Heeeeeeeeeeeee)
Minne forget me not, forget me not, forget me notBaby let me show ya
(Prince)
(We could never forget you)
(Purple rain,Purple rain)
(Ohhhhhhhhhhhh)
Paisley
Wait for the music
(We're so grateful)

懐かしい話をするため左下の時刻を1984年7月16日にして画質も劣化させてる感じも良いですね😃
