자넷 잭슨의 Whoops Now, 잊혀졌던 잭슨의 향수

최근 컴백을 밝힌 가수 자넷 잭슨은 1966년생으로 지금은 잊혀진 가수지만 한때 큰 인기를 누린적이 있었다.

아주 오래전 저스틴 팀버레이크와의 공연에서 가슴을 거의 드러낸 피어싱 차림으로 등장해 많은 이슈를 만들기도 했던  가수다. 그녀가 내놓는 앨범들은 대부분 중박은 했던것 같은데 지금은 그런가수가 있었나 보다 정도의 기억만 남아 있다.

 

 

가족중 어떤이가 자살이나 사고사등으로 사망하면 주변인도 그렇게 되었던 경우가 많았던것 같다. 고 최진실씨 주변의 사람들도 그랬지만 자넷잭슨은 오빠인 마이클 잭슨의 사망이후에 건재함을 과시하며 가끔 등장하고 있다. 묘하게 마이클 잭슨과 닮아 있는 얼굴 생김새하며 목소리와 춤실력은 그녀가 아직까지 대중속에 기억되는 이유다.

 

 

Friday morning when all my work is done
I pack my bags I'm on the run
I've got a feeling that I'm going to have some fun
In the sun with my friends and it's got me going

Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't
Sorry I can't, sorry I can't go now

Friday noon and the boss is on the phone
He's telling me that I can't leave home
An extra hand at work is what he called for
He says we need you here tell your friends you're not going

Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
I don't know why Jarvis called me here
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
I don't know why Jarvis called me here

It makes no difference if you love work or not
To dream your weekend hand on the door
Now out with your friends having fun in the sun
Now that's when the phone rings


Friday evening and I'm all alone at home
I know my friends are having fun
On the weekend I'm gonna leave the machine on
Next time he calls he'll hear my voice singing loud and clear

Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
I'm out having fun in the sun with my friends
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
I'm out having fun in the sun with my friends
Whoops now, sorry I can't go

With my friends
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
With my friends
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
With my friends

With Ann and Rusty, Dean and Moody,
Ken and Nancy, Lynette and Tony,
Lisa and Jimmy, Ken and Julie,
Bubbles and Michael, Ken and Terry,
John and Kevin......
