Blogでは It is with great regret that I am unable to perform for you in December as I had hoped to be able to. I am eager to share wonderfully warm and intimate musical experiences with you once again, and intend to return to Japan again soon! Thank you for all of your love and support now and always. It’s reciprocal!! Sophie と。

Beautiful love, you are all mystery
Beautiful love, what have you done to me?
I was contented 'till you came along
Thrilling, my soul with your song
Beautiful love, i've roamed your paradise
Searching for love, my dreams to realize
Reaching for heaven, depending on you
Beautiful love, will my dreams come true
Beautiful love, you are all mystery
Beautiful love, what have you done to me?
I was contented 'till you came along
Thrilling, my soul with your song
Beautiful love, i've roamed your paradise
Searching for love, my dreams to realize
Reaching for heaven, depending on you
Beautiful love, will my dreams come true
Beautiful love, you are all mystery
Beautiful love, what have you done to me?
I was contented 'till you came along
Thrilling, my soul with your song
Beautiful love, i've roamed your paradise
Searching for love, my dreams to realize
Reaching for heaven, depending on you
Beautiful love, will my dreams come true
Reaching for heaven, depending on you
Beautiful love, will my dreams come true
Beautiful love
Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you wont
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
You won't, no you won't
No you won't, I can't make you love me, if you don't
If you don't, no, no, no
No, no cause I can't make you love me
作曲 : Bruce Springsteen
作詞 : Bruce Springsteen
作曲年 1982
「Born in the U.S.A.」でお馴染みのロックミュージシャン、ブルース・スプリングスティーンの曲。アルバムの中に違和感無く溶け込んでいますね。選曲とアレンジの妙に脱帽です。(っていうか、ライナー読むまでブルース・スプリングスティーンの曲と気づかなかった私・・・)
原曲に負けず劣らずクールでカッコよく仕上がっていると思います。
(「Standard Jazz Song」を掘り下げる意味で女性ジャズボーカリストにスポットを当てる企画なので、こういったタイプの曲を取り上げるのは趣旨から外れるかもしれませんが、ジャズとその他のジャンルの音楽の化学反応みたいなものを見ると改めてジャズの懐の深さを感じてしまい、取り上げずにはおられませんでした)
ブルース・スプリングスティーンのオリジナル

Hey baby boy, is your mama home?
Did she go away and leave you all alone?
I got a bad desire
Oh-oh-ohh, I'm on fire
Tell me now, baby, is she good to you?
Does she do to you things that I do?
I'm gonna take you higher
Oh-oh-ohh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh-oh-ohh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul
At night I wake with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh-oh-ohh, I'm on fire
Yeah, I'm on fire
Oh-oh-ohh, I'm on fire
Ohh-oh-oh, I'm on fire

前作「Take Love Easy」で通常仕様になってしまったジャケットも、今回は再び簡易形とはいえデジパック仕様に戻ったのも個人的にはうれしいポイントです。(←そこんとこ、妙にこだわってます)
Taka Lova Easyの紹介で彼女が喉の異変に見舞われた話を書きましたが、本アルバムをリリースする前に彼女はクラシックの歌唱レッスンを受け、改めて自身の歌唱法を見直し、より洗練された声を手に入れたばかりでなく、自らの喉に負担をかけにくい歌唱法もあわせて身につけることで無事に喉の異変も克服したようです。(メデタシ、メデタシ)
Oh, do it again
I may say no, no, no, no, but do it again
My lips just ache to have you take
The kiss that's waiting for you
You know if you do, you won't regret it
Come and get it
Oh, no one is near
I may cry oh, oh, oh, oh, but no one will hear
Mama may scold me 'cause she told me
It was naughty but then
Oh, do it again
Please do it again
Do it agaun
Mmmm,do it again
You won't regret it
Come and get it
Oh, do it again
I may say no, no, no, no, no, no, no but do it again
My lips just ache to have you take the kiss that's waiting for you
You know if you do
You won't regret it
Come and get it
Yes,turn out the light
And hold me close so close in your arms
All through the night
I know tomorrow morning
You will say goodbye and amen
But until then, do it again
Mmmm, yeah, do it again
Oh! do it again
Yeah yeah yeah do it again
