Les pépites introuvables sur Spotify no.2 : ‘Will The Circle Be Unbroken’ featuring Jeff Beck & Joss Stone

Hello Folks,

Après l’excellent ‘A Kind Of Peace’ de Faithless featuring Cat Power, nous poursuivons la lutte pour une réintégration immédiate des plus belles pépites musicales dans la bibliothèque de nos plateformes préférées et pour un accès illimités… non mais !!

Cette semaine, je vote pour ‘Will The Circle Be Unbroken’, une chanson Gospel des plus populaires aux US, composée en 1907 par un certain Charles H. Gabriel (le Mozart du Gospel, avec plus de 7000 compositions à son actif), et dont je vous ai trouvé une version inoubliable avec l’inégalable Jeff Beck et la charismatique Joss Stone.

Bonne écoute…

Will The Circle Be Unbroken

I was standing by my window

On one cold and cloudy day

When I saw that hearse come rolling

For to carry my mother away

Will the circle be unbroken

By and by, Lord, by and by

There’s a better home a-waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

I said to that undertaker

Undertaker please drive slow

For this lady you are carrying

Lord, I hate to see her go

Will the circle be unbroken

By and by, Lord, by and by

There’s a better home a-waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Oh, I followed close behind her

Tried to hold up and be brave

But I could not hide my sorrow

When they laid her in the grave

Will the circle be unbroken

By and by, Lord, by and by

There’s a better home a-waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

I went back home Lord, my home was lonesome

Missed my mother, she was gone

All of my brothers, sisters crying

What a home so sad and lone

Will the circle be unbroken

By and by, Lord, by and by

There’s a better home a-waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Will the circle be unbroken

By and by, Lord, by and by

There’s a better home a-waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky
