Sheena Easton - Telephone (1983)

사실 영화 [댄싱퀸]에 별로 관심도 없었는데, TV에서 광고가 나오길래 봤다가 뒤에 흐르는 엄정화의 목소리의 멜로디가 낯익어 찾아 봤더니... 아......... 이럴수가..... 시나 이스턴(Sheena Easton)의 대표 히트곡 중 하나인 <Telephone>을 어떻게 이렇게 뒤죽박죽 망쳐서 커버할 수 있단 말인가... 영화 속에서야 모르겠지만, 노래만 들었을 때의 느낌은 그렇다. 그래서 원곡을 오랜만에 찾아들었다. 그리고 포스팅해본다.

Sheena Easton - Telephone (Videoclip)

I've been away from you for far too long
Too much chances make my heart go frantic
I wanna tell you what's been goin' on
Operator, give me Trans Atlantic
I sit alone as the night goes by
Stare at the phone and wait for your reply

Chorus:
Long long distance love affair, woh
I can't find you anywhere, woh
I call you on the telephone
But you're never home
I gotta get a message to you
I wanna tell you what I'm going through

What in the world's comin' over you
How come you're acting like a total stranger
I try to reach you but I can't get through
I got this feeling that my heart's in danger
I got your letter it was perfectly clear
Havin' a ball, and wishin' you are here

Chorus

Premonition is a funny thing
a familiar kind of pain and easy
Like knowin' when the phone is gonna ring
Too many times and it'll drive you crazy
I hear your echo in the longer hall
Call out your name, but no one's there at all

Chorus repeats out

(허걱... 너무 늙으셨어...쩝.)
