Woman is The Nigger of The World
John Lennon
Uma das muitas verdades que Lennon escreveu…
We make her paint her face and dance
If she won’t be a slave, we say that she don’t love us
If she’s real, we say she’s trying to be a man
While putting her down, we pretend that she’s above us
Woman is the nigger of the world…yes she is
If you don’t believe me, take a look at the one you’re with
We insult her every day on TV
And wonder why she has no guts or confidence
…e bate forte pra caralho.

George Harrinson learning to play the sitar in India with Ravi Shankar, who said:
It is strange to see pop musicians play sitars. Have us confused at first… it was so little to do with our classical music.

What a Life
Los Mockers
I have got to eat, so every day I work.
And I’ve have to dress, so I must do my job
I don’t want to work, but I must to feed you
I don’t like my job, but I’ve got to dress you
(oh,) What a life.

I Put A Spell on You
Screamin’ Jay Hawkins
Essa música ficou conhecida com versões famosas de gente conhecida, como Ray Charles, The Animals, Creedece Clearwater Revival, Manfred Mann e Pete Townshend, mas a original é mesmo do Screamin Jay Hawkins!
Hawkins had originally intended to record “I Put a Spell on You” as a refined love song, a blues ballad. He reported, however, that the producer “brought in ribs and chicken and got everybody drunk, and we came out with this weird version.[4] I don’t even remember making the record. Before, I was just a normal blues singer. I was just Jay Hawkins. It all sort of just fell in place. I found out I could do more destroying a song and screaming it to death.”
