1a canzone al giorno

Cinque giorni fa ci ha lasciato Aretha Franlin. I post erano già pronti e poi, conoscendola, poco, non avrei saputo cosa mettere. Mi ha aiutato oggi la solita Radio Capital che ha mandato in onda un bellissimo duetto incirso nel 1986 con George Michael dal titolo "I knew you were waiting (for me)" pubblicato nell'album "Aretha". Appena iniziata mi sono ricordato benissimo della canzone e di chi la cantava anche senza presentazione dello speaker di turno.. L'attesa di tutti e due purtroppo è finita e si sono ricongiunti nel paradiso dei cantanti. Con questa perla vi risparmio anche una possibile novità e anche domani vi va di lusso visto che ho già deciso cosa mettere e non è un nuovo brano. Buon asccolto e buona giornata!!

I knew you were waiting (for me) (Aretha Franklin & George Michael)

Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows

And was crippled emotionally
Somehow I made it through the heartace, yes I did
I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness, kept my faith
Kept my faith

And the river was deep 
I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me, uh uh

With and endless desire
I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
And like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over
One touch and you set me free
No, I don't regret a single moment, no, I don't
I know you don't, looking back
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do) I just laugh

When the river was deep, I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting for me

So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we share was meant to be
(I knew you were waiting)
(I knew you were waiting)
I knew you were waiting, (I knew you were waiting for me)

I even thought that love
(I still believe) when the valley was low
(It didn't stop me) nothing can stop me now
(Knew you were waiting, know I knew you were waiting for me)

when the mountain was high
(I still believe) oh, when the valley was low
(It didn't stop me) no, it didn't stop me
(Knew you were waiting for me, knew you were waiting for me)

oh yeah
(I still believe) oh, I still believe
(It didn't stop me) do you know it didn't stop me, now?
(Knew you were waiting) somewhere, some way, some place, somehow
For me

when the valley was low
(I still believe) I still believe
(I believe, I believe, I believe) it didn't stop me now (oh, it couldn't stop me now)
