El otro día, escuchando el disco debut de Florence + The Machine, una canción me sonaba especialmente. Y era esta versión de You Got The Love. Si os gustaba el programa de televisión Planeta Finito (famosos recorriendo ciudades del mundo), conoceréis de sobra esta melodía, pues era la cabecera del mismo.
Pero yo me sigo quedando con el remix que hizo The Source junto a la voz de Candi Staton, una cantante soul que brilló con fuerza en la época de los 70 y que volvió a la escena en 1991 con esta canción. La versión original fue escrita en 1986 por Anthony B. Stephens, Arnecia Michelle Harris y John Bellamy. Un poco de ritmo para terminar la semana.
Letra:
Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don’t care
But you’ve got the love I need
To see me throughSometimes it seems that
The going is just too rough
And things go wrong
No matter what I do
Now and then I feel
That life is just too much
But you’ve got the love
I need to see me throughSometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don’t care
But you’ve got the love I need
To see me throughTime after time
I say oh Lord whats the use
Time after time
I say this just won’t do, but
Sooner or later in life the things you love you loose,
Just like before I know i’ll call on youOccasionally
my thoughts are brave and friends are few
Occasionally
I cry out Lord what must I do
Occasionally
I call up Master make me new
You’ve got the love
I need to see me throughSometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don’t care
But you’ve got the love I need
To see me throughYou got the love
You got the love
You got the love
…
