Bonnie Raitt tekst
Fra : Søren Olsen


Dato : 02-09-04 08:08

Jeg har smidt følgende i en engelsk nyhedsgruppe, men tit får man
hurtigere og bedre svar her, så:


I have been presented with a sheet of music, 'Something To Talk About',
by Shirley Eikhardt. I know the song as performed by Bonnie Raitt.

The lyric goes:

"People are talkin',
Talkin' 'bout people,
I hear them whisper,
You won't believe it,
They say we're lovers,
Kept under cover,
...."

I have searched for the lyrics on the internet, and everywhere the last
line reads "Kept under covers" - with an s.

'Covers' must be right according to the original text, and the text I
have been presented with must be erratic. Wouldn't it be unnatural to
try to rhyme 'lovers' with 'cover', if you have got the other option?

Can you use 'under cover' and 'under covers' indiscriminately, or is
there a difference?

I will post this on a music newsgroup, but just in case any of you know it:

- did Bonnie Raitt sing 'covers'?
- did the person in the movie sing 'covers'?
- did Bonnie Raitt sing the song in the movie?

Rettelse: Jeg skulle have skrevet 'think' i stedet for 'say'

Allo

Bonnie synger cover (altså uden s), og hvis du lytter intenst til
originalindspilningen, så udelader hun også s'et i lovers. I hvert fald på
den udgave jeg har på min pc.

Men det har jo unægteligt 2 forskellige betydninger :)

coverS

Enjoy :)
