With a Little Help From My Friends

Em 1967 os Beatles lançaram uma das obras mais espetaculares da música pop: Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, meu álbum favorito dos Fab Four, quiçá meu álbum favorito de todos.
Em 1969 houve um dos festivais mais famosos de rock: Woodstock, que dispensa apresentações. Nele, Joe Cocker fez uma apresentação antológica que fez sua carreira decolar, principalmente por conta da versão explosiva de A Little Help From My Friends (música do álbum dos Beatles citado acima, que ele gravou em 1968).



E como quase sempre faço quanto coloco covers, eis a versão original:



What would you do if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day,
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)

No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine,

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
with a little help from my friends.
