時代は1929年の株価大暴落に始まる世界大恐慌によって多くの人々が貧困にあえいでいた時代。
コートをつかみ、帽子を取ったなら
悩みはひとまず置いといて、ドアをあけよう
明るい表通りをあるけば
何もかも良くなるさ
君と出会い何もかも変わったんだ
幸せな曲でステップを踏み鳴らして
明るい表通りをあるけば
全てがうまくいく
今まで暗い道ばかり歩いてきたんだ
でも今は恐くない
たとえ1セントも持っていなくとも
気分はロックフェラーみたいな金持ちさ
明るい表通りをあるけば
足元の塵もいつか金に変わるんだ

後半のスキャット、なかなかできるものじゃない。彼女のセンスをとても感じる動画です。バックをやっていてとてもグイグイと来る感じが素晴らしかった。ドラムのキューリさんも好サポート。

"On the Sunny Side of the Street" is a 1930 song composed by Jimmy McHugh with lyrics by Dorothy Fields. Some authors say that Fats Waller was the composer, but he sold the rights to the song. It was introduced in the Broadway musical Lew Leslie's International Revue starring Harry Richman and Gertrude Lawrence.Richman and Ted Lewis enjoyed hit records with the song in 1930.
The era was a time when many people were in poverty due to the Great Depression that began in 1929.
Grab your coat
And get your hat
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Can't you hear a pitter-pat
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But no, I'm not afraid
This rover crossed over
If I never have a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Can't you hear a pitter-pat
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But no, I'm not afraid
This rover crossed over
If I never have a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
The latter half of the scat is not something we can easily do. It is a video that feels her sense very much. I was doing the back and it was great to feel really coming. Kuri's drum is also a good support.
