美國歌壇天后［珍娜傑克森］──Trip-Hop／放克搖滾──［You／你］

 

 

Here I am in your face

Tellin truths and not your old lies

Seems to me that you care

And I know that youre runnin out of time

See ya cant get away

Ill be here forever and again

Whisperin in your ear

Do believe cause you know you cannot win

Spent most your life pretending not to be

The one you are but who you choose to see

Learned to survive in your fictitious world

Does what they think of you determine your worth?

If specials what you feel when youre with them

Taken away you feel less than again

Thats right

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

Theres a feeling inside

No you cannot change it right away

Gotta make a try

And with time itll start to go away

Ill be here when you need

That one to sit and cry to

Cause Im the you you forgot

The only one you know you cannot lie to

Bitter youll be if you dont change your ways

When you hate you you hate everyone that day

Unleash this scared child that youve grown into

You cannot run for you cant hide from you

Cant hide from you

Thats right

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C

(you cant blame nobody but)

C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C

(you cant blame nobody but you)

C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C

(you cant blame nobody)

C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C

(aw thats right)

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

You gotta mean what you say

You gotta say what you mean

Tryin to please everyone

Sacrifice your own needs

Check in the mirror my friend

No lies will be told then

Pointin the finger again

You cant blame nobody but you

 

１９９７年秋天　３１歲的美國歌壇非裔天后珍娜傑克森（Janet Jackson）發行第六張專輯［The Velvet Rope］, 獲得高度評價,被許多人視為其最佳大碟。

商業也成功, 在美國成為其第四張Billboard冠軍大碟　拿到三白金　賣出三百多萬

英國＃６　拿到白金（３０萬張）

其它國家也打入排行榜Top１０, 全球賣出八百萬張

前四首主打順利打入英國排行榜Top２０, 兩首打入美國榜Top３（兩首沒在美國發行）

 

１９９８年９月, 珍娜在歐洲／日本推出大碟第五主打──宣傳單曲［You／你］

此曲由製作人James Harris III ＆Terry Lewis , 珍娜, René Elizondo（珍娜當時未公開的隱婚老公）合寫

由於取樣美國放克搖滾靈魂樂團‘戰爭’（War）的１９７２年單曲［The Cisco Kid］

創作此曲的Harold Brown, Sylvester Allen, Morris Dickerson, Howard Scott, Leroy Jordan, Lee Oskar, Charles Miller也名列［You］詞曲作者。

James Harris III ＆Terry Lewis 與珍娜製作成一首Trip-Hop／放克搖滾

在緩步的節奏中, 珍娜先以壓抑, 再以扎實嗓音──幾乎類似其兄麥可傑克森（Michael Jackson）──演繹, 充滿爆發感。

 

［You／你］在英國以宣傳主打發行, 但無迴響

另外在日本以實體推出, 反應冷淡

儘管在珍娜眾多金曲中名氣不高, 卻仍是首被樂評讚美的佳作。
