Artful Dodger - альбом "It's All About the Stragglers" (2000)

Apr 23, 2014 23:56



"It's All About the Stragglers" - первый и единственный полноценный альбом, выпущенный группой Artful Dodger (в оригинальном составе)
Был ещё смикшированный двухдисковый сборник, но это - отдельная история (расскажу позже)

Интересной особенностью данного альбома является то, что для его записи было задействовано 9 различных вокалистов, включая Крэйга Дэвида.



Стиль: 2 step garage
Записывался: 1999-2000
Выпущен: 27 ноября 2000
Лэйбл: London records

Artful Dodger - "Rewind"/"Movin' Too Fast" Live

Трэк-лист:

1. "Think About Me" (feat. Michelle Escoffery)
2. "Re-Rewind" (Radio Edit) (feat. Craig David)
3. "Outrageous" (feat. Lyn Eden)
4. "Please Don't Turn Me On" (Radio Edit) (feat. Lifford)
5. "TwentyFourSeven" (Radio Edit) (feat. Nicole)
6. "Something" (feat. Lifford)
7. "Movin' Too Fast" (feat. Romina Johnson)
8. "R U Ready" - (feat. MC Alistair)
9. "I Can't Give It Up" (feat. Nadia)
10. "Woman Trouble" (Radio Edit) (feat. Robbie Craig & Craig David)
11. "What You Gonna Do?" (feat. Craig David)
12. "It Ain't Enough" (Radio Edit) (feat. MZ May & MC Alistair)
13. "We Should Get Together" (feat. Nadia)
14. "Think About Me" (Artful Dodger 3 Step Mix)
15. "Please Don't Turn Me On" (Artful Dodger UK Garage Remix)

Итого, в альбом включили 3 трэка с участием Крэйга Дэвида.
Вообще говоря, их могло быть больше.
Потому что первоначальные версии "Something" и "Are You Ready" были записаны тоже с Крэйгом.
Это были одни из самых первых записей, сделанные Artful Dodger.
К примеру, трэк "Something" (с Крэйгом Дэвидом) впервые увидел свет в 1997 году.
Если не ошибаюсь, мне также приходилось слышать трэк "It Ain't Enough", исполненный при участии Крэйга Дэвида
Однако, в "It's All About the Stragglers" решили добавить другие версии, чтобы альбом звучал более разнообразно.

Оригинальные версии "Something" и "Are You Ready" существуют. Но это раритеты. Покажу их чуть ниже.

На моей версии альбома отсутсвуют трэки 12,14,15

P.S.
На данный момент группа Artful Dodger в первоначальном составе больше не существует.
Марк Хилл потерял право использовать это название
Теперь он выступает под псевдонимом Artful !

Помимо трэков с участием Крэйга Дэвида хотелось бы выделить такие вещи как "Think About Me", "Please Don't Turn Me On", "Outrageous" (feat. Lyn Eden), "It Ain't Enough"
Отличная музыка, прекрасный вокал!
"We Should Get Together" (feat. Nadia) - тоже ничего!

Тексты песен альбома "It's All About the Stragglers":

1. "Think About Me"
(Escoffery / Mark Hill)

Did you think that
You could turn away
From the love I gave
Did I really hear
You say it's over
Baby, you found
Another lady
After everything
I did for you
Did you think you
Found the same
In someone new
There's only one me
And you cannot replace me
So tell me who you run to
When times are hard
And you need
A love to turn to
Now you know
How it feels when
Young hearts break
Think about me
When you're lonely
Do you ever
Think about me
Think about me
me only
Do you ever
Think about me
When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call
When you're on your own
Does it hurt at all
Do you ever
Think about me
Do you think about me

Heard that she
Found another guy
Heard he made you cry
And you can't believe
How much it hurt you
You, thought she'd
Be true, for you
Now I hear that
You want me back
But you ain't really sure about me
I'll be down with that
'Cause when you left me
It didn't matter that
You left me, lonely
Tell me, how
Does it feel
To be the one who's hurting
Now you know
How it feels when
Young hearts break

Think about me
When you're lonely
Do you ever
Think about me
Think about me
me only
Do you ever
Think about me
When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call
When you're on your own
Does it hurt at all
Do you ever
Think about me
Do you think about me

When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call me
When you're on your own
Are you feeling lonely
When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call me
When you're on your own
Are you feeling lonely

Think about me
When you're lonely
Do you ever
Think about me
Think about me
me only
Do you ever
Think about me
When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call
When you're on your own
Does it hurt at all
Do you ever
Think about me
Do you think about me

Think about me
When you're lonely
Do you ever
Think about me
Think about me
me only
Do you ever
Think about me
When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call
When you're on your own
Does it hurt at all
Do you ever
Think about me
Do you think about me

Think about me
When you're lonely
Do you ever
Think about me
Think about me
me only
Do you ever
Think about me
When you're feeling low
Do you wanna call
When you're on your own
Does it hurt at all
Do you ever
Think about me
Do you think about me
Think about
Think about me
Think about me
Think about me
When you're feeling low

3. "Outrageous"
(Eden / Mark Hill / Pete Devereux)

My situation never changes
Or very little
My little world
My little world
Is due for a shake up
Or shakedown
Would be acceptable
And I can't understand no I can't understand why people think I'm so
respectable
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
Outrageous
Outrageous
Outrageous
Outrageous things are gonna happen to me
They're gonna happen to the other side
They're gonna happen to somebody
It's gonna happen to the kids to the people next door and it really isn't
funny
And I said my situation never changes
But I'm not too sure
I believe I believe I believe I believe that somethin's gonna happen real
soon
Somethin' scary
I know
I konw
I konw
Yeah
Outrageous
Outrageous
Outrageous
Outrageous things are gonna happen to me
They're gonna happen

Outrageous
Outrageous
Outrageous
Outrageous things are gonna happen to me
Everywhere I go
Outrageous
Oooo everything I see
Everytime I talk
Outrageous
I'm gettin' in trouble
Open my big mouth
Outrageous
Words keep fallin' out
Open my big mouth
Outrageous
Now I'm in trouble
I believe
I believe
I believe
Yeah

4. "Please Don't Turn Me On"
(Mark Hill / Reeves)

Mmm-hmm
I mean it (I mean it)
Don't say it, babe (don't say it, babe)
Hear me now now
Said ah, please don't turn me on
No, no listen, listen

Baby, won't you keep your distance
You're getting too close to me
I've been feeling my resistance
Melting away
But she said she wouldn't mind
If I spent a little time
Said you were a friend of mine
She could trust me out of sight

Now two bottles later on
And I think I stayed too long
I forget where I belong
Saying please don't turn me on

It's getting late I know I should be gone
Don't push me 'cos I'm not that strong (no, no, no, no)
You can never make it right from wrong (no, no, no, no)
Please don't touch me there
Stop playing with my mind it's not fair
When you know I've got another who cares
And she's waiting for me somewhere out there, yeah

Don't say my love is too familiar
'Cos she's everything to me
Don't say what she don't know won't kill her (ooh)
I'm playing away
Put your hands where I can see
Baby, you know what I mean
'Cos you're looking good to me
And you know I feel the heat
As you button up your dress
And I wake up in your bed
With a head full of regrets
Saying please don't turn me on

It's getting late I know I should be gone…

Don't want to lose the love I have
'Cos once it's gone can't take it back
You know that I want to
Doesn't matter what I hear you say
I see the look that's in your eyes (no, no)
Please don't turn me on

It's getting late I know I should be gone (I should be gone)…

It's getting late I know I should be gone…

Come put your lovin' on the line

Take me in your arms and let me know

Someone special, I belong to
I could be yours and you could be mine

Quiet moments, filled with passion
In my heart you know I'm yearning
Long to please you, touch you
Send me your lovin' right on time

Take me in your arms and let me know
That it's all right
(Know that it's all right)
Look into my eyes and let me see you
Deep inside
(See you deep inside)

7. "Movin' Too Fast"
(Mark Hill / Craig David / Mark Hill)

Ooh, you're moving too fast (fast, fast, fast, fast, fast, fast)
Ooh, you're moving too fast and I don't think it's right
I'm not giving you my love tonight
Now, ooh, you're moving too fast
Better sit back, relax
I'm not giving up no love tonight

Made a sound, no understanding
Boy, I know what you're demanding
And it's time for me to let you know (mmm, mmm, mmm)
Never be without hope to play this game
Not too serious within the same
Stop it please 'cos ain't no possibility
Won't you put your dirty hands, dirty hands on me

Ooh, you're moving too fast and I don't think it's right
I'm not giving you my love tonight
Now, ooh, you're moving too fast
Better sit back, relax
I'm not giving up no love tonight

Bad boy, bad boy, you're such a dirty, bad boy
Beep, beep, uh-huh, a-ha, mmm, mmm

I do not see no-one to blind me
Not my kind, nothing does that lose me respect
Not only one night calls, oh, no, no
Never be without hope to play this game
Far too serious within the shame
Stop it please 'cos ain't no possibility
Won't you put your dirty hands, dirty hands on me

Ooh, you're moving too fast and I don't think it's right
I'm not giving you my love tonight
Now, ooh, you're moving too fast
Better sit back, relax
I'm not giving up no love tonight

Ooh, you're moving too fast and I don't think it's right
I'm not giving you my love tonight
Now, ooh, you're moving too fast
Better sit back, relax
I'm not giving up no love tonight

Ooh, you're moving too fast and I don't think it's right
I'm not giving you my love tonight
Now, ooh, you're moving too fast
Better sit back, relax
I'm not giving up no love tonight

Ooh, you're moving too fast and I don't think it's right
I'm not giving you my love tonight
Now, ooh, you're moving too fast
Better sit back, relax

9. "I Can't Give It Up"
(Justin Oliver / Brandy / Leo)

I Can't Give It Up
Another night all I can see
You've given up so easily
I'm wondering what
I'm supposed to do
Another dream
I know it's mine
I think about it all the time
But nothing ever
Takes the place of you
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(It's always up to me)

What was it that
You said to me?
I heard you call
But never see
So good to me
I'd like to say
But I caught you out
On Saturday
What was it that
You said to me?
I heard you call
But never see
So good to me
I'd like to say
But I caught you
On a date today

Talking in my sleep I try
To find out all the reasons why
I'm starting all the games
You used to play
You're in and out
My life so much
I'm waiting for that final touch
You know that
You can always count on me

I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(Yeah, yeah)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(It's always up to me)

What was it that
You said to me?
I heard you call
But never see
So good to me
I'd like to say
But I caught you out
On Saturday
What was it that
You said to me?
I heard you call
But never see
So good to me
I'd like to say
But I caught you on
A date today

I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(Yeah, yeah)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(It's always up to me)

I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(Yeah, yeah)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you
Inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
(It's always up to me)

10. "Woman Trouble"
(Pete Devereux / Mark Hill / Robbie Craig / Craig David)

Bubblin' from the left
Yes, we're bubblin' from the right
Craig David and Robbie Craig, bubblin' all night
Bubblin' from the left (woman trouble)
Yes, we're bubblin' from the right
(woman trouble)
Craig David and Robbie Craig, bubblin' all night
(woman trouble)
This is how we do
(Woman trouble)
(Woman trouble)
(Woman trouble)
(Woman trouble)
(Woman trouble)
(Woman trouble)

I feel fantastic, bombastic, ecstatically astounded
How a girl can really lose her brain
I feel surrounded, confounded, emotionally dumbfounded
To think you've nearly won your game, oh yeah

You said that I have been gone too long
Don't try to tell me that I was wrong (re-remix)
You're totally wrong for me
God, the hurt in my face
Now I know the only thing to do
Is to give myself some space
I bet she never told you everything that drifted through her mind
All the secret thoughts
Well, I bet you never caught her sliding with another man
Such as I did, no, no
I hate to see the way the finger points at me
I'm at fault, I don't think so
After all is said and done, girl
You know you had your fun
Why don't you leave it there

I feel fantastic, bombastic, ecstatically astounded
How a girl can really lose her brain
I feel surrounded, confounded, emotionally dumbfounded
To think you've nearly won your game, oh yeah

You said you had a girl with problems, tell me
Did it lead to heartache and confusion (re-remix)
Did you wake up in tears not knowing where you are
Did you get it in the ear like I did, like I did

You said that I have been gone too long
Don't try to tell me that I was wrong (re-remix)
You're totally wrong for me
God, the hurt in my face
Now I know the only thing to do
Is to give myself some space
I bet she never told you everything that drifted through her mind
All the secret thoughts
Well, I bet you never caught her sliding with another man
Such as I did, no, no
I hate to see the way the finger points at me
I'm at fault, I don't think so
After all is said and done, girl
You know you had your fun
Why don't you leave it there

I feel fantastic, bombastic, ecstatically astounded
How a girl can really lose her brain
I feel surrounded, confounded, emotionally dumbfounded
To think you've nearly won your game, oh yeah

I feel fantastic, bombastic, ecstatically astounded
How a girl can really lose her brain
I feel surrounded, confounded, emotionally dumbfounded
To think you've nearly won your game, oh yeah

Bubblin' from the left (woman trouble)
Yes, we're bubblin' from the right

13. "We Should Get Together"
(Justin Oliver / Brandy / Leo)

We Should Get Together
We should get together
We should get together
Take anything you want boy
'Cause you know that
There won't be a second time
Take everything you can girl
'Cause a love like this
So real is hard to find

PRE-CHORUS:
Take anything you want
Take everything you need
'Cause it's time for understanding

If a love is in your heart
Then it's really time to start
And I've got to let you know

CHORUS:
We should get together
Stay this way forever
Echos in my mind
You and me combined

We should get together
Wanna last forever
Taking back what's mine
Love is gonna shine

Repeat chorus

POST-CHORUS:
We should get together
(Gonna shine) (x3)
We should get together
(Gonna shine) (x3)

Just think about the last night
'Cause the future is a light
That shines for you
Don't worry 'bout the answers
Holding on to what you've got
Is all you should do

Repeat pre-chorus
Repeat chorus twice
Repeat post-chorus

Take it or leave it
You gotta believe it
Take it or leave it
It's all up to you

Take it or leave it
You gotta believe it
Take it or leave it
It's all up to you

Repeat chorus twice
Repeat post-chorus twice
(Fades)
