Ah, wat mooi deze vangst bij de Blindelingse Greep nr. 53 uit de RG-Collectie. Een lp simpelweg getiteld The Marvelous Marvelettes. Ik kies deze prachtsingle, het origineel uiteraard van iets wat u misschien van anderen kent. Overduidelijk geschreven door Smokey Robinson, ook door hem geproduceerd en het filmpje slaat lekker helemaal nergens op.
Every day things change
And the world puts on a new face
Certain things rearrange
And this whole world seems like
A new place
Oh, yeah
Secretly I’ve been trailing you
Like a fox that preys on the rabbit
I had to get you
And so I knew
I had to learn your ways and habits
Ooooh
You were the catch that I was after
But I looked up
And I would be in your arms
And I knew I had been captured
What’s this whole world coming to?
Things just ain’t the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
I had laid such a tender trap
Hoping you might fall into it
But love hit me like a sudden slap
One kiss
And then I knew it
Ooooh
My plan didn’t work out like I thought
I had laid my trap for you
But it seems like I got caught
What’s this whole world coming to?
Things just ain’t the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
The hunter gets captured by the game, 1967
