song of the day : The Mamas & The Papas - California Dreamin




azi am fost toata ziua asa, mai mult sau mai putin California, dar cu siguranta Dreamin 8-> . mai jos avem si o varianta mai moderna a melodiei + videoclip :






Piesa a fost lansata de The Mamas & The Papas in 1965 (nici maica-mea nu era nascuta pe-atunci:|) si de-a lungul timpului a fost cover-uita de : Jose Feliciano (in 1968), America, The Beach Boys (doua versiuni), The Carpenters, The Four Tops, Bobby Womack, Queen Latifah, Wes Montgomery, George Benson, Eddie Hazel, John Phillips, Royal Gigolos, Benny Benassi si DJ Sammy. The John Mayer Trio a folosit California Dreamin' pe 4iunie2009 in The Tonight Show impreuna cu Conan O'Brien.

Cam asa se comporta un hit, parerea mea ;)




Lyrics for The Mamas & The Papas - California Dreamin :

All the leaves are brown
(All the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray.
(And the sky is gray).
I've been for a walk
(I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day.
(On a winter's day).

I'd be safe and warm
(I'd be safe and warm)
if I was in L.A.
(If I was in L.A.)
California dreamin'
(California dreamin') on such a winter's day.

Stopped in to a church I passed along the way.
Well I got down on my knees
(got down on my knees)
And I pretend to pray.
(I pretend to pray).
You know the preacher likes the cold.
(preacher likes the cold).
He knows I'm gonna stay.
(knows I'm gonna stay).
California dreamin'
(California dreamin') on such a winter's day.

(Bridge)

All the leaves are brown
(All the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray.
(And the sky is gray).
I've been for a walk
(I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day.
(On a winter's day).

If I didn't tell her
(If I didn't tell her)
I could leave today.
(I could leave today).
California dreamin' (California dreamin')on such a winter's day,
California dreamin' on such a winter's day,
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.
