Always in Charts:Aerosmith-Janie's got a gun:


Lansata in '89 si extrasa de pe albumul Pump,"Janie's got a gun" este una dintre cele mai bine structurate melodii din istoria rock'ului.A fost scrisa de Steven Tyler si Tom Hamilton,initial fiind lansata sub titlul "Danny's got a gun",Danny find un prieten apropiat de'a lui Steven,dealer de droguri.
Primele 10 secunde ale cantecului sunt o combinatie de sunete care se numeste "Water Song",sunete produse de o mzuica speciala din sticla si un gong.
Steven Tyler a venit cu riff'ul si Joe Perry cu solo'ul.

Povestea din spatele canteclui se refera sa o fata violata de tata care vrea razbunare,poveste inchipuita de Tyler.Mai apoi a citit in Newsweek un articol despre victime impuscate.Odata cu acesta i-au venit versurile "He jacked a little baby" cele originale fiind "He raped a little baby".Mai tarziu a declarat ca i-a luat 9 luni sa compuna acest cantec.

A fost pe locul 2 in Mainstream rock,1 in Billboard,1 in UK,1 in Australia si VH1 l-a numit al 37'lea cel mai bun cantec rock.

Versuri:

Dum, dum, dum, honey what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum it's the sound of my gun.
Dum, dum, dum, honey what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum it's the sound

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun
What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They said when Janie was arrested
they found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin' Now that Janie's got a gun
she ain't never gonna be the same.

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Tell me now it's untrue.
What did her daddy do?
He jacked a little bitty baby
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under the lightning and the
thunder knew that someone had to stop the rain

Run away, run away from the pain yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Run away run away from the pain yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
What did her daddy do?
It's Janie's last I.O.U.
She had to take him down easy and put a bullet in his brain
She said 'cause nobody believes me. The man was such a sleeze.
He ain't never gonna be the same.

Run away, run away from the pain yeah, yeah
yeah yeah yeah
Run away run away from the pain yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Everybody is on the run

Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Because Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Janie's got a gun

  2. Ohh, imi era dor de o postare despre Aerosmith:)). Cat despre melodie, este una dintre preferatele mele, la fel si videoclipul. Tin minte ca am ascultat-o odata in autobuz... a fost o adevarata alinare, avand in vedere ca mi-e rau pe masina.
    Serios i-a luat 9 luni sa o compuna?

    1. Da,si in aceste 9 luni s-a documentat referitor la tot felul de crime,violuri pentru ca sentimentul de "sange" a acestui cantec sa fie cat mai puternic.
      A povestit in cea mai recenta biografie ca a aflat atat de multe chestii "urate" in acest timp incat nu a mai avut un somn linistit multe luni la rand.

  3. Orice ar fi, melodia rămâne melodia mea preferată de la Aerosmith.
