charlottetaya.blogg.se - Stuck in the middle with you chords

luckily my Boston Pandora station played it and now I can't stop listening to it.Stealers Wheel is genius! Itzel from Mount Pleasant, TxI first heard it on Gilmore Girls and fell in love but I didn't know the name.Wayne from Crockett, TxOne half of Stealers Wheel, Gerry Rafferty, recently died of liver failure.Rafferty apparently indicated that was the case during an 1978 interview with Rolling Stone. Gordon from Philadelphia, PaThe New York Times' article reporting Rafferty's death repeats the anecdote mentioned on this page that "Stuck in the Middle with You" was intended as a Dylan parody.J from Marshfield, WiEagan sang lead on this song, Gerry Rafferty did the backup vocals.You should check out Jeff Healey's version,it is great as well.RIP GERRY. Sad to say, Gerry Rafferty is gone now, but his two major hits will be here for decades to come. That scene is so disturbing, with horrific violence being committed while this upbeat song with the handclap percussion section and Gerry's nice little bluesy guitar thrown in, and the perpetrator dancing along while doing it. Oldpink from New Castle, InWonderfully infectious song, and I have to say the use of it in "Reservoir Dogs" was jarring to put it mildly.The song was co-written by Gerry and Joe Egan and NOBODY recorded it prior to them in 1973. If you search on Youtube under AlanRafferty (no spacces) you can see a performance of it from Top of The Pops, which was a very popular weekly music chart show in the U.K, and here you can see Gerry singing the lead. In the music video for the song, Joe is seen miming to Gerry's vocal, as Gerry left the band for a few months, during which time the song started to climb the charts and the video was commissioned. Alan from Prestwick, United KingdomThe lead vocal on this song is sung by GERRY RAFFERTY, not Joe Egan.Alan from Prestwick, United KingdomAnd Gerry's lead vocal was done in one take.Alan from Prestwick, United KingdomAnd no, Bob Dylan never covered it.It was not written for or by them as someone else said here. Terry from Colchester, VtThis song was covered by The Hedgehoppers Anonymous and I found it on a compilation called Classic Rock Cover Versions on Amazon UK.Kirk from Fredericksburg, VaI went to youtube and here is the Greatful Dead's version that I got.I was wondering how come Gerry Rafferty sung the lead vocals, yet he was not in the official video Eduardo from San Jose, Costa RicaThank you, Alan, from Prestwick, UK, for the information about the video.

Listen to it on the radio, tho, and the excitement of the song starts when that bass pops out as you listen. In this video, and the other one mentioned by Alan that's on YouTube, the bass doesn't seem to play a part in the sound, and it's much to bland that way. It's that wonderful music magic that happens when the right instruments striking the right chords at the right time blend together to make an unforgettable tune.

Camille from Toronto, OhFirst thing that grabs your listening ear is the strumming of the guitar.

As does Johnny Depp appearing out of nowhere at the 1:27 mark :-P

Zack Murphy from Foster City, California Knowing that it's being lip-synced by Egan makes that YouTube video that much more amusing.

David from HarrogateAgree the Paul of Salford similar storey from ex manager of Billy Connolly.

Unfortunately, Gerry is dead and the band doesn't have an official web site since the band no longer exists, so there's no official word on this to refer to, but simply use your bloody ears & count the beats, fer crissakes. "Los - ing - con - trol - yeah - i'm" is 6 beats "cause - I'm - throw - ing - up" is 5 beats. There's not enough beats for "Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place" because you'd need 6 beats before "all over the place" for those lyrics. If you'll count the beats in the lyric, you can see there are 5 syllables/beats before he says "all over the place". Somebody somewhere posted the wrong lyrics years ago and the internet is self-perpetuating those incorrect lyrics by repeating the mistake. Some Scottish folks pronounce "throwing" as "tro-wing". from Pasiley ScotlandCorrect lyric: "Cause I'm throwing up all over the place".

Cool N The Mark from Cleveland OhThe lyric is “Losing control yeah I’m all over the place”…check the top of the pops video with Gerry singing, it’s crystal clear…so maybe you’ll get it right next time….
