聴き比べ フリーとロッド『オール・ライト・ナウ(All Right Now)』

今日の「聴き比べ」は『オール・ライト・ナウ(All Right Now)』です。

この曲はフリー(Free)が１９７０年にシングルとして先行発売した曲で、彼らの最大のヒット曲となりました。全英では２位、全米でも４位になりました。この曲の影響か収録アルバム『Fire and Water』もフリーの最高売り上げを記録しました。

All Right Now

by  Andy Fraser & Paul Rodgers

There she stood in the street

Smiling from her head to her feet

I said-ah, hey, what is this?

Now baby, maybe, maybe she's in need of a kiss

I said-ah, "Hey, what's your name baby?

Maybe we can see things the same

Now don't you wait or hesitate

Let's move before they raise the parking rate."

All right now

Baby, it's-ah all right now

All right now

Baby, it's-ah all right now

Let me tell you all about it now

I took her home to my place

Watching every move on her face

She said, "Look, what's your game, baby?

Are you tryin' to put me in shame?"

I said, "Slow, don't go so fast

Don't you think that love can last?"

She said, "Love, Lord above

Huh, now you're trying to trick me in love"

All right now

Baby, it's-ah all right now

All right now

Baby, it's-ah all right now

Yeah, it's all right now

Let me tell you all about it, now

Took her home, yeah, to my place

Watching every move on her face

She said, "Look, uh, what's your game?

Are you trying to put me in shame?"

"Baby," I said, "Slow, slow, don't go so fast, huh

Don't you think that love can last?"

She said, "Love, Lord above

Now he's trying to trick me in love"

All right now

Baby, it's-ah all right now, yeah

All right now

Baby, it's-ah all right now

All right now

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right

All right now

All right now

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right

Free - All Right Now

ポール・ロジャースはソロになっても歌い続けました。

Paul Rodgers - All Right Now (Live in London)

この曲をロッド・スチュワート(Rod Stewart)がカバーしました。１９８４年のアルバム『カムフラージュ(Camouflage)』です。この曲はシングルカットされアメリカでもそこそこのヒットをしました。この曲は先日紹介したロッドのカバーアルバムでは歌っていません。

All Right Now (2008 Remaster)

この曲はフリーがまだ人気が出ない頃、自分たちを鼓舞するために作った曲です。元気づけられます。

それでは今日はこの辺で。
