音楽三昧

この曲は1979年発表の売れに売れていたドナ・サマーと

女王バーバラ・ストライサンドのデュエット曲

曲調はいかにも当時のディスコナンバーという感じだが、互いのプライドをかけた

火花散る歌の掛け合いは、ぞくぞくするほどに畳み掛けてくる

当時の二人のスケジュールは忙しくて、全く調整できず、ヴォーカルは別録音したと

いうエピソードつきの曲です

今日はwestlifeとのデュエットで聴いてください

歌詞です

[Barbra:]
It's raining, it's pouring
My lovelife is boring me to tears, after all these years
[Donna:]
No sunshine, no moonlight, no stardust, no sign of romance
We don't stand a chance

[Barbra:]
I've always dreamed I found the perfect lover
But he turned out to be like every other man
Our love, our love

[Both:]
Raining (raining)
Pouring (pouring)
There's nothing left for us here
And we won't waist another tear

[Donna:]
If you've had enough, don't put up with his stuff, don't you do it

[Barbra:]
If you've had your fill, get the check pay the bill, you can do it

[Donna:]
Tell him to just get out,

[Barbra:]
Nothing left to talk about

[Donna:]
Pack his raincoat show him out

[Both:]
Just look him in the eye and simply shout:
Enough is enough
I can't go on, I can't go on no more no
Enough is enough
I want him out, I want him out that door now

Enough is enough
Enough is enough
That's enough

[Donna:]
If you've reached the end, don't pretend that is right when it's over

[Barbra:]
(it's over)
If the feeling is gone don't think twice just move on, get it over

[Donna:]
(over, over)

[Both:]
Tell him to just get out, say it clearly, spell it out:
Enough is enough is enough
I can't go on, I can't go on no more no
Enough is enough is enough
I want him out, I want him out that door now

Enough is enough
Enough is enough
That's enough

[Barbra:]
I've always dreamed to find the perfect lover,
But he turns out to be like every other man
Our love (I had no choice from the start)
Our love (I've gotta listen to my heart)
Our love (Tearing us apart)

Enough is enough is enough
I can't go on, I can't go on no more no
Enough is enough is enough
I want him out, I want him out that door now

Enough is enough
Enough is enough
That's enough

[Both:]
No more tears (No more tears)
No more tears (No more tears)
No more tears (No more tears)
No more tears (No more tears)
Enough is enough is enough is enough is enough is enough
I've had it, you've had it he's had it, we've had is

[Donna:]
I always dreamed I find the perfect lover,

[Barbra:]
But he turned out to be like every other man

[Both:]
I had no choice from the start
I've gotta listen to my heart
Tearing us apart

Enough is enough is enough
I can't go on, I can't go on no more no
Enough is enough is enough
I want him out, I want him out that door now

Goodbye mister, goodbye, goodbye mister
Goodbye sugar

It's raining, it's pouring,
There's nothing left for us here
And we won't waist another tear

No more tears
Is enough is enough is enough is enough is enough is enough is enough
Is enough!

歌詞です

For your eyes only, you can see me through the night
For your eyes only, I never need to hide
You can see so much in me
so much in me that's new
I never felt, until I looked at you

For your eyes only, only for you
You see what what no one else can see
No one's breaking free
For your eyes only, only for you
The love I know you need in me
The fantasy you freed in me
Only for you, only for you

For your eyes only, the nights are never cold
You really knew me, that's all I need to know
Maybe I'm an open book
Because I know your mind
But you won't need to read between the lines

For your eyes only, only for you
You see what no one else can see
No one's breaking free
For your eyes only, only for you
The passions that collide in me
The wild abandonned side of me
Only for you, for your eyes only

歌詞です

Chorus:
She's a brick----house
Mighty mighty, just lettin' it all hang out
She's a brick----house
The lady's stacked and that's a fact,
ain't holding nothing back.

She's a brick----house
She's the one, the only one,
who's built like a amazon
We're together everybody knows,
and here's how the story goes.

Verse:
1. She knows she got everything
a woman needs to get a man, yeah.
How can she use, the things she use
36-24-36, what a winning hand!


(Chorus)


Verse:
2. The clothes she wears, the sexy ways,
make an old man wish for younger days
She knows she's built and knows how to please
Sure enough to knock a man to his knees


(Chorus)


Bridge:
Shake it down, shake it down now (repeat)
