Rockapella:Give She was the Cinderella of New York Started out with little just the ghetto-nothing home But soon she's living like rich people do Wielding plastic up and down at Fifth Avenue But first she grew up on the Bowery Only friends were homeless taught her Harlem harmony She'd sing her songs and people stop and smile For a quarter they forgot New York a while And then at night when the people all went home She'd dig out her cardboard house alone And in it she'd wait with coffee cup in hand and sing Give, you know it's Christmas Give, whatever just you can is just enough I need you now to help me help myself Give, yourself at Christmas Love may be the only thing you've got to share The love's enough so give She saved her quarters moved uptown a bit Got a subway gig and in Penn Station was a hit But still she longed to live the underground Maybe CBGB maybe Broadway bound She sang for years til one man came along Signed a record deal, paid big money for her songs So now it's park-view days and sold-out nights All the homeless, all the cardboard's outta sight But still at night when the people all go home She sits in her park penthouse alone She thinks of her home and wonders if her friends still sing Give, you know it's Christmas Give, whatever just you can is just enough I need you now to help me help myself Give, yourself at Christmas Love may be the only thing you've got to share The love's enough so love

1992年？のNHKのクリスマススペシャルで、ロッカペラと柳屋クインテットのコラボで聞いたのが初めてでした。 気になる曲でしたので、ここで聴く事ができて良かったです😊

２０年以上前、高校の時、CDが削れるんじゃないかってくらいRockapellaを聴きました。懐かしい。

「タモリの音楽は世界だ！」ではじめってみたときに衝撃を覚えました。

英語習いたての中学時代、ハモりに憧れて練習したのは良い思い出、、

it's spelled Bass not Base

My thoughts exactly gibson2017....

It is a great song, but the album is titled BASH!.

Thank you! I've been looking for this soooo long!!
