Put Your Records On ~ Corrine Bailey Rae

Posted by: gretchen on August 27, 2007 |

Here’s another gem of a tune from Corrine Bailey Rae for your Monday morning…

Put Your Records On Corinne Bailey Rae lyrics


Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don’t need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.

Maybe sometimes, we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don’t you hesitate.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the roadside,
(just relax, just relax)
Don’t you let those other boys fool you,
Got to love that afro hair do.

Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it’s alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don’t you think it’s strange?

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

‘Twas more than I could take, pity for pity’s sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don’t even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

Oh, you’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

    I love her so much. She is so cute and her voice is just wonderful. When I first heard the song I wasn’t too sure about it, it is really different sound but I have come to love her a lot. She is very unique.

    Its like a sweet, innocent teenage girl hanging in the woods, with her friends in a warm summer afternoon.The sun is setting and she is boosting her friends and singing to them “I hope u get your dreams” and out there to every girl she is hoping that everyone reaches for their dreams with their destiny.Its so cool.Its like she is telling all of us just to play one of our favorite songs and forget all what other try to say by discouraging us and just focus on what you what from life.

    I like this song, although i like her song, “like a star” better. I like her as well, I like to hear good music by other black women thats empowering. I think she’s kind of cute. Although, as far as looks go I prefer someone like Beyonce or Amerie. They do the natural thing sometimes, but also know how to dress up and do the glam thing which I love.

    Why would you judge someone on their appearance?

  6. 6. imani Says:

    lol because I am human. To actually tell someone that they will never judge or be judged on their appearance is very naive. All humans are judged on their appearance and I personally dont find anything wrong with it!;)

  7. 7. gretchen Says:

    I agree we can’t avoid being judged by our appearances, but I am not interested in how an artist looks. I am much more interested in her music. That’s all I was trying to get at there. ;)

  8. 8. Charms16 Says:

    well imani it seems like u and me got lot in common,because i like so many black singers too and beyonce is one of my favorite too.and whatever u said earliar was so right but i consider Corinne Bailey Rae still cute.
    love

    Well it’s great to know what you are much more or less interested in.
    I, on the other hand, am interested in artists as a whole person. And looks are included in that. All successful artists know that in order for them to stay there they have to be able to market themselves as a whole.

    gretchen u are right too:)
    love
