Miley Cyrus e la cover di Hey Ya al Bangerz Tour (video)

Miley Cyrus -autocelebrativa sul palco mentre indossa una maglietta con il proprio volto stampato- si è lanciata in una cover, durante una sua recente tappa a Washington del Bangerz Tour. Il brano scelto è stato “Hey Yah” degli Outkast per un risultato finale che non rende particolare giustizia al pezzo originale. Con un ritmo molto più lento rispetto al brano che tutti conosciamo, la reinterpretazione non ha sicuramente convinto. Se volete farvi un’idea più precisa potete guardare l’esibizione in apertura post.

A seguire il testo del pezzo originale degli Outkast.

[Intro]
One, two, three, uh!

[Verse One – Andre 3000]
My baby don’t mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure.
Uh, But does she really wanna
But can’t stand to see me
Walk out the door.
Don’t try to fight the feelin’
‘Cause the thought alone is killing me right now..
Uh, thank god for mom and dad
For sticking two together
‘Cause we don’t know how…
UH!

[Chorus:]
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.
Hey… ya.
Hey ya.

[Verse Two – Andre 3000]
You think you’ve got it
Oh, you think you’ve got it
But got it just don’t get it
‘Til there’s nothing at all
We get together
Oh, we get together
But separate’s always better when there’s feelings involved
If what they say is “Nothing is forever”
Then what makes, then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes, what makes, what makes love the exception
So why you, why you
Why you, why you, why you are we so in denial
When we know we’re not happy here…
Y’all don’t want me here you just wanna dance

[Chorus]
Hey… ya. (OH OH)
Hey ya. (OH OH)
Hey… ya. (Don’t want to meet your daddy, OH OH)
Hey ya. (Just want you in my Caddy OH OH)
Hey… ya. (OH OH, don’t want to meet yo’ mama OH OH)
Hey ya. (Just want to make you cumma OH OH)
Hey… ya. (I’m, OH OH I’m, OH OH)
Hey ya. (I’m just being honest OH OH, I’m just being honest)

[Bridge – Andre 3000]
Hey, alright now
Alright now fellas yeah!
Now what’s cooler than bein’ cool?
(ICE COLD!)
I can’t hear ya’
I say what’s, what’s cooler than bein’ cool?
(ICE COLD!)
Whooo…
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright,
OK now ladies (yeah!)
Now we gon’ break this thing down in just a few seconds
Now don’t have me to break this thing down for nothing
Now I wanna see y’all on your baddest behavior
Lend me some sugar, I am your neighbor
Uh!Here we go know…
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it (oh oh)
Shake it, shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake it (oh oh)
Shake it, shake it like a Polaroid Picture, shake it, shake it
Shh you got to, shake it, shh shake it, shake it, got to shake it
(Shake it sugar) shake it like a Polaroid Picture

[Verse Three – Andre 3000 (Repeating “Shake it” in background)]
Now all Beyoncé’s and Lucy Liu’s
And baby dolls, get on the floor
(Get on the floor)
You know what to do.
You know what to do.
You know what to do!

[Chorus]
Hey… ya. (OH OH)
Hey ya. (OH OH)
Hey… ya. (OH OH)
Hey ya. (Uh oh, Hey ya)
Hey… ya. (OH OH)
