Black Velvet
 
Ich wusste nicht in welches unterforum dieser thread hier passt. deshalb ist er jetzt hier gelandet. ich hoff, das ist ok.

ich habe vorhin bei You Tube ein "tribute to elvis"-video gesehn. im hintergrund lief der song "black velvet" von allanah myles. ich fragte mich, in welchem zusammenhang dieser song zu elvis steht und suchte den songtext raus:

Black Velvet
Alanah Myles

Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

Chorus:
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

chorus

Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could
you do?

(Solo)

chorus repeats 2x

If you please, if you please, if you please

kann man diesen text auf mehrere sänger übertragen oder spielt das lied tatsächlich auf elvis an?

Soweit ich weiß, hat sie den Song auf Elvis bezogen, habe ich jedenfalls schon mehrmals gelesen!

Es gibt da ja ne ganze Reihe von "Songs über Elvis", angefangen von

Paul Simon "Graceland" bis zu Robbie Williams "Advertising Space" und viele, viele andere.....

Wenn mich nicht alles täuscht, ist diese Black Velvet auch eine Marke für Haargel, bzw. die "Schmiere", wie es im Volkmund heißt und bezieht sich auf den Style vom jungen Elvis. Das Lied als solches finde ich klasse :top: .

ich fand den song damals total gut ... war ja ein richtiger Renner ... daß es dabei um Elvis ging, hab ich bis jetzt nicht gewußt :top: jetzt gefällt er mich noch besser ... muß ihn gleich mal wieder hören :-)

Eigentlich schade, dass Alannah Myles nur mit dieser Hommage an den King einen wirklich großen Hit landen konnte, wo sie doch eine sehr charismatische Stimme hatte und auch noch sehr gut aussah. Ich erinnere mich noch an eine weitere tolle Ballade ("Lover Of Mine" :top:), doch danach kam (leider) nicht mehr sehr viel...
