The Rolling Stones-Brown Sugar

  The 2022 Billboard Music Awards「票房雜誌2022年音樂獎」有一個〈Top Tour〉「最叫座的巡迴演唱會」獎，得獎的是The Rolling Stones (No Filter Tour) 。

  The Rolling Stones「滾石合唱團」被樂評人定位為 Blues-influenced rock band「藍調搖滾樂團」，1960年代初期組團於倫敦，被譽為搖滾樂史上最佳樂團，他們第一場全英演唱會早在1964年和the Ronettes女聲合唱團合作演出，「滾石合唱團」主唱Mick Jagger出生於1943年7月26日，如今已年近80歲，但仍幾乎年年四處巡迴演唱，可見其魅力驚人。

  滾石合唱團The Rolling Stones (No Filter Tour)演唱會以’62-‘22當招牌，歷年Show Openers演唱會開場曲以"Street Fighting Man" (#48/68)唱最多次，演唱會主題歌則以"Brown Sugar"(#1/71)最多次，Show Closers 演唱會結束曲則以" (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction"(#1/65)最多次。

  Bob Seger說Rock and Roll Never Forgets，The Rolling Stones「滾石合唱團」有它在圈內一定的份量。

Brown Sugar

作詞/作曲：Michael Phillip Jagger / Keith Richards

 

Gold Coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in the market down in New Orleans
Skydog slaver know he's doin' all right
Hear him whip the women, just around midnight

Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good?
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should, oh no

Drums beatin' cold, English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' when it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doin' all right
You should have heard him, just around midnight

Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good?
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should, yeah

Brown Sugar, how come you dance so good?
Oh, got me quittin'
Brown Sugar, just like a black girl should, yeah

Now, I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet 16
I'm no school boy but I know what I like
You should have heard them, just around midnight

Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good? Oh, no no
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should

I said, yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
How come you, how come you dance so good?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
Just like a, just like a black girl should
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
