까마구둥지 : 포리너- Urgent (4, 1981)

80년대초-중반 팝락보컬중, 저니의 스티브 페리와 함께 최고의 1인자 보컬을 다투던 포리너의 루 그램의 목소리와 킬러 색소폰의 연주가 끝내주는 명곡.

(시카고, ELO, REO speedwagon, 스타쉽, 제네시스등은 팝락이 되었지만 태생이 다른 그룹들이라고 치고) 80년대 수많은 팝락그룹중에서 Journey, Boston과 함께 그야말로 독보적이던 대단한 그룹이었다, Foreigner.

그나저나 왜 노래방에 이런 좋은 곡들은 없는걸까 (예전 팝송은 순전히 구색맞추기 맥없는 노래뿐).

Foreigner- Urgent (1981년)

You're not shy, you get around
You wanna fly, don't want your feet on the ground
You stay up, you won't come down
You wanna live, you wanna move to the sound
Got fire, in your veins, burnin' hot, but you don't feel the pain
Your desire, is insane, you can't stop, until you do it again
But sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes
That maybe you're thinking of some other guy
But I know, yes I know, how to treat you right
That's why you call me in the middle of the night

You say it's urgent, so urgent, so-oh-oh urgent...
Just you wait and see, how urgent, my love can be, it's urgent...

You play tricks, on my mind, you're everywhere
But you're so hard to find, you're not warm, or sentimental
You're so extreme, you can be so temperamental
But I'm not looking for a love that will last
I know what I need and I need it fast
Yeah, there's one thing in common that we both share
That's a need for for each other anytime, anywhere

It gets so urgent, so urgent, you know it's, urgent
I wanna tell you it's the same for me, ooh-oooh, so-oh-oh urgent...
Just you wait and see, how urgent, our love can be, it's urgent...

You say it's urgent, make it fast, make it urgent
Do it quick, do it urgent, gotta rush, make it urgent...Want it quick
Urgent, urgent, emergency...Urgent, urgent, emergency...
Urgent, urgent, urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, urgent, urgent, emergency, so urgent, emergency
Emer-(ooh-oooh) emer-(ooh-oooh) emer-(ooh-oooh) It's urgent
So urgent...

훨씬 고음질 버젼 (쉬워보여도 불러보면 이 보컬이 얼마나 대단한지 알수 있다)
