¡Piensa! Aretha Franklin y los lóbulos frontales de Goldberg

Hay que pensarse las cosas pero que muy bien antes de actuar. Así nos lo aconseja Aretah Franklin. Y más me hubiera gustado a mí poder colgar la actuación de esta excepcional cantante en la película The blues brothers (1980), dirigida por John Landis y protagonizada por John Belusi y Dan Aykroyd, pero lo que he visto en la red no tenía suficiente calidad. Así que cuelgo este vídeo, pero os aconsejo que veais Granujas a todo ritmo, que es el título en español de The blues brothers. En la película aparecen, además de Aretah Franklin, James Brown, Ray Charles y John Lee Hooker [por lo que aconsejo verla en su versión original, al fin y al cabo es un musical].

Qué bonito cuando un cerebro ejecutivo va unido a una garganta ejecutora... Espero que os guste (imposible que no, pero bueno) y que disfruteis durante este ratito. Hasta la siguiente entrada. 




Think

You better think! (Think!)
Think about what you're tryin' to do to me
Think! (Think! Think!)
Let your mind go let yourself be free

Let's go back, let's go back
Let's go way on way back when
I didn't even know you
You couldn't a been too much more than ten (just a child)

I ain't no psychiatrist
I ain't no doctor with degrees
But it don't take too much [high] I.Q.
To see what you're doin' to me

You better think! (Think!)
Think about what you're tryin' to do to me
Yeah-eah think! (Think! Think!)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

Oh freedom! (Freedom!)
Said some freedom! (Freedom!)
Oh freedom!
Yeah freedom! (Ah!) Ah right now!

Freedom! (Freedom!)
Oh freedom! (Freedom!)
Need you some freedom!
Oh freedom! (Ah!) Ah right now!

Yeah! Think about it
You! Think about it

There ain't nothin' you could ask
I could answer you with I won't (I won't)
But I was gonna change-ah my mind if
You keep doin' things I don't (don't)

You better think! (Think!)
Think about what you're tryin' to do to me
(what you're tryin' to do to me)
Oh-oh-oh-oh think! (Think!)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

People walkin' around everyday
Playin' games and takin' scores
Tryin' to make other people lose their minds
Well be careful you don't lose yours

Oh-oh! Think! (Think!)
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Woo-ooh! Think! (Think!)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

You need me (need me), and I need you (you know)
Without each other, there ain't nothin' neither can do

Oh-oh yeah!
Think about it baby
(what you're trying to do to me)
To the bone baby
Think about it right now

Yeah-eah right now! (to the bone, you need me)
Oh-oh right now! (to the bone, you need me)
Yeah said right now (to the bone, you need me)
Need to change your mind (think about it) baby baby baby
Woo! (to the bone, you need me)
To the bone baby (to the bone, you need me)
Yeah-eah, woo-ooh! (to the bone, you need me)
To the bone (think about it) baby baby baby
