Top 100 Best Music Videos of All-Time

22. YOU CAN CALL ME AL

PAUL SIMON

1986

Simon did not like the original music video for the song, which was a performance of the song Simon gave during the monologue when he hosted Saturday Night Live in the perspective of a video monitor. A replacement video directed by Gary Weis was conceived partly by Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels, in which Simon's friend and Saturday Night Live alumnus Chevy Chase lip-synced Simon's vocals as Simon lip-synced to the backing vocals and brought in various instruments to mime playing when they respectively appear in the song. The height difference between the 6 ft 4 in (193 cm) Chase and the 5 ft 3 in (160 cm) Simon serves as a comical juxtaposition

Letra

There comes a time When we heed a certain call When the world must come together as one There are people dying Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life The greatest gift of all

We can't go on Pretending day-by-day That someone, somewhere soon make a change We're all a part of God's great big family And the truth, you know, love is all we need

We are the world We are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

Oh, send them your heart So they know that someone cares And their lives will be stronger and free As God has shown us by turning stones to bread And so we all must lend a helping hand

We are the world We are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving Oh, there's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all But if you just believe there's no way we can fall Well, well, well, well let us realize Oh, that a change can only come When we stand together as one, yeah, yeah, yeah

We are the world We are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

We are the world We are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and mee

We are the world (are the world) We are the children (are the children) We are the ones who'll make a brighter day, so let's start giving (so let's start giving) There is a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

Oh, let me hear you!

We are the world (we are the world) We are the children (said we are the children) We are the ones who'll make a brighter day so let start giving (so let's start giving)

There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me, come on now, let me hear you

We are the world (we are the world) We are the children (we are the children) We are the ones who'll make a brighter day so let's start giving (so let's start giving) There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me, yeah

We are the world (we are the world) We are the children (we are the children) We are the ones who'll make a brighter day so let's start giving (so let's start giving)

There's a choice we're making And we're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

We are the world (are the world) We are the children (are the children) We are the ones who'll make a brighter day so let's start giving (so let's start giving)

There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

We are the world, we are the world (are the world) We are the children, yes sir (are the children) We are the ones that make a brighter day so let's start giving (so let's start giving)

There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me, ooh-hoo!

Aretha Franklin Live At Filmore West 1971年3月5,6,7日 at Fillmore West Concert Hall, San Francisco, California録音、1971年5月19日リリース、Atlantic SD 7205。 ソウルのライヴ名盤｢フィルモア・ライヴ｣の名で、歴史的名作として後世に語り継がれる、絶頂期のアレサ・フランクリンを捉えたライヴ作品です。 3日間のライヴから厳選されたこの10曲に本ライヴの魅力が凝縮、R&B1位・POP7位を記録！ ライヴでのアレサのハンパない歌唱力をフルに堪能したいのなら、間違いなく本アルバムを選ぶべきでしょう。 録音音質もクリアで、分解能も素晴らしく、スカッと気持ちいい！ 1-3 "Bridge Over Troubled Water" (Paul Simon) - 前年にSimon & Garfunkelのオファーがあってグラミー賞でライヴカヴァーした事からアレサのシングルヒット（R&B1位・POP5位）に。グラミー賞最優秀女性R&Bボーカル・パフォーマンス賞獲得。本ライヴではレコード以上にゴスペル度高めた、まさにアレサ流カヴァー。 #ArethaFranklin #RayCharles #KingCurtis #PaulSimon #TomDowd #JohnLennon #PaulMcCartney 結果的にはソウルのライヴ・アルバムとしては最高の作品のひとつとされますが、彼女にとって｢フィルモア・ウェスト｣でのこの3日間は新たな挑戦だったそうです。さて、その逸話は... 1960年代後半、Columbiaからブラック・ミュージックの名門Atlanticに移籍したアレサ... 敬愛するオーティス・レディングの"Respect"をカヴァーして全米1位を記録、｢クイーン・オブ・ソウルと呼ばれるようになり、オーティスも｢この曲はもう彼女のものだ｣と高く評価... 全米の黒人たちの心を掴んだが、アレサとプロデューサーのJerry Wexler(ジェリー・ウェクスラー)は満足することなく、白人のファンも開拓したいと... そのための足掛かりとして西海岸サンフランシスコを代表するライヴ・ハウス｢フィルモア・ウェスト｣でのライヴを企画... ここは、グレイトフル・デッドやジェファーソン・エアプレインを抱え、数多くのロック・バンドを排出してきたロックの聖地、ヒッピー・ムーヴメントの中心地... 当時の西海岸は、NYと違いブラック・ミュージックは浸透しておらず、観客はほとんど白人... ビートルズ、サイモン＆ガーファンクルなどの楽曲、バック・バンドは、アレサのツアー・メンバーではなく、Atlanticが誇る世界最高のリズム・セクション、キング・カーティス＆キングピンズを起用、オルガンにはビートルズのゲット・バック・セッションに参加したことでも知られるBilly Preston(ビリー・プレストン)を... さらにアレサの歌唱に負けないホーン・セクションとしてメンフィス・ホーンズを用意、磐石の布陣で臨んだ... どんな曲でも自分のモノにしてしまう熱くソウルフルな歌唱は、ジャンルを軽々と超越し、白人聴衆を完全にロックしてしまったと。 注目曲は... 1-1 "Respect" - 全米1位Otis Reddingの名曲。 1-4 "Eleanor Rigby" (John Lennon & Paul McCartney) - The Beatlesのカヴァー。 1-6 "Don't Play That Song" - Horns Arranged By Tom Dowd - アレサの人気曲。 2-2 "Spirit In The Dark" - アレサのオリジナル代表曲で、次の2-3 "Spirit In The Dark" は何とRay Charlesとの共演！ #soulmusic #fuzey #soulsinger #queenofsoul #vinyl #vinylcollection #soulrecords #recordcollection #arethafranklintribute #gospel  #アレサフランクリン #ソウルミュージック #ゴスペル #レコード ※作品を知り、ソウルの素晴らしさを伝えたい。様々なソースをアレンジ、先輩諸氏に感謝。 https://www.instagram.com/p/COmejgrMrve/?igshid=1ndtaxaizntii
