MEN WHO DANCE pt. 2 - JONATHAN RICHMAN: 'I WAS DANCING IN THE LESBIAN BAR'

Ky quhet Jonathan Richman dhe para se te kendonte lirikat e tij nga me fantastiket dhe femijore, ka qene lider i Modern Lovers, nje grupi new-wave nga Bostoni qe nxorri nja dy albume te mira ne vitet 1976-1986...
Po kjo gjurma qendron me vehte. Jo thjesht per nga titulli ('I Was Dancing In The Lesbian Bar'), qe mbetet mjaft ftues dhe interesant, por kryesisht per nga thjeshtesia dhe fluiditeti i tekstit 'provokues'. Nje rrjedhje vezhgimesh e lirshme dhe njekohesisht moderne, dedikuar bareve gay/lesbian-friendly... Per te mos folur pastaj per kercimin alla-kabaretist te artistit naiv/neoklasik.
Nje tjeter mashkull qe kercen mire dhe nje tjeter videoklip qe meriton! Nese preferoni mos me besoni, por per mendimin tim kemi nevoje per artiste te tille sot, aspak 'te rende' dhe me personalitet te hapur e unik:
















Well I was dancing at a night club one Friday night
And that night club bar was a little uptight
Yeah, I was dancing all alone a little self conscious
When some kids came up and said, "for dancing come with us."
And soon...
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
Well I was dancing in the lesbian bar
In the industrial zone.
I was dancing with my friends
And dancing alone.
Well the first bar things were alright
But in this bar, things were Friday night.
In the first bar things were just alright.
This bar things were Friday night.

I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
Well I was dancing in the lesbian bar
Way downtown
I was there to check the scene
And hang around
Well the first bar things were stop and stare
But in this bar things were laissez faire
In the first bar things were stop and stare
In this bar things were lassez faire.
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
In the first bar folks were drinking sips
But in this bar they could shake their hips,
In the first bar they were drinking sips
In this bar they could shake their hips.
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
I was dancing in a lesbian bar.
