| Ute Lemper in Paris- Youkali-tango (Weill) - 338 sec Ute Lemper sings my favorite Kurt Weill song, "Youkali" (tango/habanera), about man's yearning for a utopian paradise of his most profound dreams and desires, ending in inevitable disillusionment.
Lemper's voice has been called an acquired taste, but it's one well worth acquiring. She certainly doesn't have the polish or refinement of some classically-trained divas who have recorded Weill (i.e. Stratas, von Otter, Farley, Reaux). Lemper easily eclipses them, however, when it comes to phrasing, mood painting, and diction. She gets the FEELING just right, and that makes her two Weill albums on Decca (as well as her recording of The Threepenny Opera) essential listening for any Weill enthusiast.

A dance permormance
1. It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
A composition by Duke Ellington (1931)
What good is music,
what good is melody,
if it aint possessing something sweet.
It aint the music,
it aint the melody,
theres something else that makes that tune complete.
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing,
doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah
It don't mean a thing, all you gotta do is sing,
doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah
Makes no difference if its sweet or hard,
you just give that rhythm everything you got.
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing,
doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah
Makes no difference if its sweet or hard,
you just give that rhythm everything you got.
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing,
doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.
2. 'The Color Purple' soundtrack (1985)
Sister, you've been on my mind
Sister, we're two of a kind
So Sister, I'm keeping my eyes on you
I betcha think I don't know nothin'
But singin' the blues
Oh Sister, have I got news for you
I'm somethin'
I hope you think that you're somethin' too
Scufflin' I been up that lonesome road
And I seen a lot of suns goin' down
Oh, but trust me
No low life's gonna run me around
So let me tell you somethin'
Sister Remember your name
No twister, gonna steal your stuff away
My sister, sho' ain't got a whole lot of time
So shake your shimmy, Sister
'Cause honey this shug is feelin' fine Auteur : fritz51176 Tags: Cabaret Musical 80s DE Ute Lemper 1987 It don't mean thing if it ain't got that swing The Color Purple soundtrack Sister you've been on my mind  |
