Song in Rush Hour / Pro7

Hi

Eben kam im Film Rushhour immer wieder ein Song, den der Jackie als Ohrwurm hatte…nein nicht die Beachboyse, sondern der den Text „Oh. jeeh…absoluty nothing“ oder so ähnlich als Refrain hatte…

Klingt irgendwie ähnlich wie Tom Jones vom Still her,

Kennt jemand den Titel und Sänger?

THX!

‚War‘ von Edwin Starr (1970)
Hi Franky!

Mehrfach gecovered worden. U.a. von Bruce Springsteen und Frankie goes to Hollywood.

Die letzte bekanntere „Coverversion“ war von Bone-Thugs-n-Harmony feat. Henry Rollins fuer den Soundtrack des Filmes „Small Soldiers“.

Empfehlenswert fuer alle Fans des etwas haerteren Genres.

Carpe noctem,

Lyrics (not-confirmed)
War (what is it good for)
Edwin Starr

Oh no-there’s got to be a better way
Say it again
There’s got to be a better way-yeah
What is it good for?
War has caused unrest
Among the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die?
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Yeah
War-I despise
'Cos it means destruction
Of innocent lives
War means tears
To thousands of mothers how
When their sons go off to fight
And lose their lives
I said
War-huh
It’s an enemy of all mankind
No point of war
'Cos you’re a man
(Repeat)
Give it to me one time-now
Give it to me one time-now
War has shattered
Many young men’s dreams
We’ve got no place for it today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord, there’s just got to be a better way
It ain’t nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War
War
War-Good God, now
Now
Give it to me one time now
Now now
What is it good for?

Carpe noctem,
