De volta a 2008

E hoje continuo com a retrospectiva do ano passado que havia parado pouco antes do natal. E amanhã nós dOEsquema começamos uma retrospectiva geral de 2008 apontando para o ano que começa: cada um dos quatro escreverá um texto sobre um determinado assunto por semana, até o carnaval, quando o ano começa de fato. Enquanto isso, vou acrescentando aos melhores discos e músicas do ano passado listas com 20 itens dos melhores mashups, filmes e shows de 2008, todos estes apresentados sem ordem específica.

50 anos de Motown: Smokey Robinson and The Miracles – “Shop Around”

Hoje também é dia de capricorniano ilustre: quem completa meio século de vida é ninguém menos que a Motown e eu vou passar a semana linkando vídeos da gravadora que apresentou o soul ao mundo em escala industrial. Começando com o primeiro hit:


“Shop Around”
(William “Smokey” Robinson & Berry Gordy)

When I became of age my mother called me to her side
She said ‘son you’re growing up now, pretty soon
You’ll take a bride’…

[Sings:]
And then she said…
‘Just because you’ve become a young man now
(Man, now)
There’s still some things that you don’t understand now
(Son, now)
Before you ask some girl for her hand now
(My son)
Keep your freedom for as long as you can now’

My mama told me…’you better shop around’
(Shop, shop around) a-whoa-yeah
You better (uh-huh) shop around!
(Shop, shop around)
Uh-uh-uh

‘There’s some things that I want you to know now
(Uh-huh-…ooo)
A just as sure as the winds gonna blow now
(Uh-huh-…ooo)
The women come and the women gonna go now
(Uh-huh…ooo)
Before you tell ‘em that you love ‘em so now
My mama told me…’you better shop around’
(Shop, shop around) whoa-yeah
You better (uh-huh) shop around
(Shop, shop around)

‘A-gotta get yourself a bargain son
Don’t be sold on the very first one
A-pretty girls come a dime a dozen
A-try to find one who’s gonna give ya true lovin’
(Uh-huh…ooo)
‘Before you take a girl and say I do now
A make sure she’s in love with-a you now’
My mama told me
(You better shop around)

Oh-hey-hey-hey
(ooooooh)
‘Try to get yourself a bargain son
Don’t be sold on the very first one!
(First one, first one)
A pretty girls come a dime a dozen
A try to find one who’s gonna give ya true lovin’
(Uh-huh…ooo)
Before you take a girl and say ‘I do’ now
Make sure she’s in love with a-you now
Make sure that her love is true now
I’d hate to see you feelin’ sad and blue now’
My Mama told me
‘You better shop around’
(Shop, shop around)
(Uh-huh ‘don’t let the first one get you’)
(Shop, shop around)
On no,cuz I don’t wanna see ya ‘wicher’
(Uh-huh shop, shop around)
Uh-huh ‘before you let ‘em hold you tight’
(Shop, shop around)
A-yeah-yeah (shop around)
‘Make sure shes alright’
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
‘Uh-huh before you let ‘em take your hand my son’
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
‘Understand my son’
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
‘Be a man my son’
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
‘I know you can my son’
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
I love it
(Uh-huh shop, shop around)
A shop around…

O comercial é legal, mas não dá pra não perceber uma metáfora sinistra por trás dessas cores e sorrisos todos…
