[雜說] Abbey Lincoln과 Dinah Washington으로 하루를 보내며..

클래시컬, 재즈, 라틴, 보사노바, 롹, 메탈, 프로그래시브, 판소리...
수많은 카테고리의 음악장르들은 다시 수많은 갈래로 조각 날 것이다.
무한대에 가까운 그 곡들 중 Abbey Lincoln의 Throw It Away와
Dinah Washington의 I Wouldn't Know What To Do 단 두 곡만을
무심하게 윈앰프에 걸어놓고 하루를 보냈다.
가사 내용이야 통속의 범주를 벗어나지 못한다 하더라도
그녀들의 음색과 Throw It Away에 세션으로 참여한 팻 메시니의 어쿠스틱 기타연주가
끝내 나의 귀가 다른 소리들로 전이되는 것을 막아버렸다.
지금도 끊임없이 Rewind되고 있는 이 두 곡은
어둠이 깊어지고 취객들의 소란이 잠잠해 질때 쯤까지 계속되리라...

[A Turtle's Dream (1994)]

 

Throw It Away
I think about the life I live
A figure made of clay
And think about the things I lost
The things I gave away

And when I'm in a certain mood
I search the house and look
One night I found these magic words
In a magic book

Throw it away
Throw it away
Give your love, live your life
Each and every day

And keep your hand wide open
Let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you

There's a hand to rock the cradle
And a hand to help us stand
With a gentle kind of motion
As it moves across the land

And the hand's unclenched and open
Gifts of life and love it brings
So keep your hand wide open
If you're needing anything

Throw it away
Throw it away
Give your love, live your life
Each and every day

And keep your hand wide open
Let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you

Throw it away
Throw it away
Give your love, live your life
Each and every day

And keep your hand wide open
Let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you

'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
You can never ever lose a thing
If it belongs to you

You can never ever lose a thing
If it belongs to you
You can never ever lose a thing
If it belongs to you

 

[The Complete Roulette Jazz Sessions (2004)]

 

I Wouldn't Know What To Do

Well, If you take
Take your love from me
And give it
To someone new
I Wouldn't know
I Wouldn't know which way to go
And don't you know I Wouldn't Know
Lord knows, Wouldn't Know What To Do

Say If you have

Ever have a change in heart

Don't you know it would break

Break my heart in two

'Cause I Wouldn't know

Which way to go

And I Wouldn't Know

I Wouldn't Know What To Do

 

Every minute Of the hour

Baby, every day Every day of the year

 

I want you to hold me

And tell me

I never Have a don't ???

 

Oh, I'd be lost

If we should part

Life for me

Would all be through

'Cause I Wouldn't know

Which way to go

And I Wouldn't Know

I Wouldn't Know What To Do
