James Taylor – Wonderful World

Almocei ontem com meus pais no Outback. Todos os 28 mil televisores de plasma mostravam imagens de um especial com James Taylor – One Man Band, creio eu – mas o som ambiente era de coisas variadas e completamente diferentes – vai entender…

Adoro JT. Quando teve o primeiro Rock’n'Rio, o único dia em que eu quis ir foi o que ele se apresentava, mas fui vetado.

Acordei com algumas músicas na cabeça e escolhi Wonderful World para colocar aqui, apesar de não ser um vídeo com ele. Dei uma olhada na Internet e, “por acaso”, exatamente ontem foi disponibilizado um torrent deste show – considerarei um presente de aniversário! :)

Don’t know much about history,
don’t know much biology.
Don’t know much about a science book,
don’t know much about the french I took.
But I do know that I love you,
and I know that if you love me, too,
what a wonderful world this would be.

Don’t know much about geography,
don’t know much trigonometry.
Don’t know much about algebra,
don’t know what s slide rule is for.
But I know that one and one is two,
and if this one could be with you,
what a wonderful world this would be.

I don’t claim to be an ‘A’ student,
but I’m tryin’ to be.
For maybe by being an ‘A’-student, baby,
I can win your love for me.

Don’t know much about history,
don’t know much biology.
Don’t know much about a science book,
don’t know much about the french I took.
But I do know that I love you,
and I know that if you love me, too,
what a wonderful world this would be.
