Nowhere Boy

13. december 2009

En af de smukkeste kærlighedssange, der nogensinde er blevet skrevet. Fortæller Wanda Jackson i nedenstående sort-hvide video som introduktion til sin forrygende udgave af Hard Headed Woman. Vi danskere plejer at bryste os af vores ironi, men der er også andre, der mestrer den disciplin.

Wanda Jacksons sang er en af de sange, der indgår i den ny film Nowhere Boy om John Lennons unge år – før The Beatles. Hard Headed Woman er også  en af de mange klassiske sange, der indgår på det lydspor til filmen, som udkommer i næste uge, og som giver en række eksempler på den rock’n roll og rockabilly, som unge Lennon lagde øre til. Kun numrene på den første plade indgår i filmen, resten er sange, der også inspirerede Lennon. De fleste vil være bekendte. The Nowhere Boys er den gruppe, der i filmen spiller The Quarry Mens repertoire. Quarry Men var som bekendt Lennons første rigtige gruppe.Her er listen over de to sider:

Wanda Jackson – Hard headed Woman
by rockabilly63

Well a hard headed woman a soft hearted man
Been the cause of trouble ever since the world began
Oh yeah ever since the world began ah oh oh oh oh
A hard headed woman is a thorn in the side of man

Now Adam said to Eve listen here to me
Don’t you let me catch you messin’ round that apple tree
Oh yeah ever since the world began…
[ guitar ]
Now Samson told Delilah loud and clear
Keep your cotton pickin’ fingers out of my curly hair
Oh yeah ever since the world began…
[ piano ]
Well I heard about a king who’s doing swell
Till he started playin’ with that evil Jezabel
Oh yeah ever since the world began

    @AagePK: Ja, Dickie Valentine (1929-1971), som var en meget populær sanger i halvtredserne i England. Med hele to nr. 1 hits – Christmas Alphabet og Finger of Suspicion. Lidt i stil med de amerikanske croonere. Langt ind i tresserne var han en populær live-underholder, men en bilulykke satte en stopper for hans liv i 1971.
