"Rock And Roll"
Jenny said when she was just five years old
There was nothin' happenin' at all
Every time she puts on a radio
There was nothin' goin' down at all,
Not at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
You know, she don't believe what she heard at all
She started shakin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by rock 'n' roll
Despite all the amputations you know you could just go out
And dance to the rock 'n' roll station
It was alright
It was allright
Hey baby
You know it was allright
It was allright
Jenny said when she was just bout five years old
You know my parents are gonna be the death of us all
Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars -
Well you know it ain't gonna help me at all
Not just a little tiny bit
Then one fine mornin' she turns on a New York station
She doesn't believe what she hears at all
Ooh, She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life is saved by rock 'n' roll,
Yeah, rock n' roll
Despite all the computations
You could just dance to that rock 'n' roll station
And baby it was allright
And it was alright
Hey it was allright
It was allright
Hey here she comes now!
Jump! Jump!
Like Jenny said when she was just bout' five years old
Hey you know there's nothin' happenin' at all
Not at all
Every time I put on the radio,
You know there's nothin' goin' down at all,
Not at all
But one fine mornin' she hears a New York station
She doesn't believe what she heard at all
Hey, not at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by rock 'n' roll
Yeah rock 'n' roll
Ooh, Despite all the computations
You know you could just dance to the rock 'n' roll station
Allright, allright
And it was allright
Oh, you listen to me now
And it was allright
C'mon now
Little better
Little bit
It was allright
It was allright
And it was allright, allright
It's allright, allright
Baby it's allright, now
Allright, baby it's allright, now
Baby it's allright, allright now
Baby it's allright
Baby it's allright now
Oh baby,oh baby
Oh baby, Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
It's allright, now
Ooh, it's allright now
All, allright.
Als ich diesen Song zum 1. mal in meinem Leben gehört habe, hat er mich tief in meiner Musikseele getroffen.
Das war quasi die pure textliche und musikalische Definition von ROCK AND ROLL - Nomen est omen! Da war nichts mehr
weg zu nehmen und auch nichts mehr hinzu zu fügen. Ein stimmiges Gesamtwerk.
Es war schlichtweg und einfach nur die perfekte Intonation von ROCK AND ROLL.
Absolut stimmig, weil die Band auch das lebte, was sie inszenierte.
Dieser Song hat vielen von uns das Leben gerettet. Oder war die Marschmusik, die die Richtung zu weiterer guter Musik vorgab. Die die inneren Maßstäbe ganz weit nach oben katapultierte. Alles was darunter war, reichte nicht aus, um die Rock and Roll Seele zu füttern.
In einer diesseitigen Hölle wie dieser hier zu leben, in der fühlende Menschen solche Geniestreiche zelebrieren, kann also doch noch Sinn und Hoffnung machen.
Gäbe es sie nicht, diese jungen Heroes und Shakespiros, die wilden Dichter, die scharfsinnigen Denker und die wortgewaltigen Poeten, wäre diese Welt für nicht wenige von uns nicht der Platz, auf dem man länger als unbedingt nötig verweilen sollte.
Der ganze materielle Mist, Fernsehgeräte, Autos ist nicht nötig - Seelenfutter muss her!
Hail Baby! Live will be safed by ROCK AND ROLL!!!
Thanx to Onkel Lou & the Crew... der heute völlig abgeklärt noch immer sein eigenes Ding macht.
Klasse! Oberklasse! Mehr geht kaum...
