wsn0007 Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 There's a song I heard a while back and I just can't seem to place it. I've heard it numerous times before. But I think it is from the seventies. Has a very soul/funk feel to it. I think a black band. Might be a woman singing? (or a high pitched) Has a sigh/grunt as a kind of hook. VERY STACCATO!!! And the main singing hook is along the lines of "i'll get you back"... i think haha Any ways, thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcM Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Maybe it's "I Want You Back" by The Jackson 5...Michael kinda sounds like a chick.... Uh-huh huh huh huh Let me tell ya now Uh-huh VERSE 1: When I had you to myself I didn't want you around Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd But someone picked you from the bunch one glance was all it took Now it's much too late for me to take a second look CHORUS: Oh baby give me one more chance (show you that I love you) Won't you please let me (back in your heart) Oh darlin' I was glad to let you go (let you go baby) But now since I see you in his arms (I want you back) Yes I do now (I want you back) Ooh ooh baby (I want you back) Ya ya ya ya (I want you back) Na na na na VERSE 2: Tryin' to live without your love Is one long sleepless night Let me show you girl That I know wrong from right Every street you walk on I leave tearstains on the ground Following the girl I didn't even want around Let me tell you now CHORUS: Oh baby all I need is one more chance (show you that I love you) Won't you please let me (back to your heart) Oh darlin' I was glad to let you go (let you go baby) But now since I can't see you any more Uh-huh A buh buh buh buh (2 times) All I want A buh buh buh buh All I need A buh buh buh buh All I want A buh buh buh buh All I need (Jermaine): Oh just one more chance to show you that I love you baby! (6 times) (I want you back) (Jackie): Forget what happened then (I want you back) (Jermaine): Let me live again Oh baby I was glad to let you go But now since I see you in his arms (I want you back) (Jackie): Spare me of this cause (Jermaine): Gimme back what I lost Oh baby I need one more chance ha I tell ya that I love you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
