Karaoke - 12.Auftritt

Petula Clark - Downtown

When you're alone and life is makin' you lonely
You can always go - downtown
When you've got worries all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help I know - downtown

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles forget all your cares

So go downtown - things will be great when you're
Downtown - no finer place for sure
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows - downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close - downtown

Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with him too before the night is over
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

So go downtown - where all the lights are bright
Downtown - waiting for you tonight
Downtown - you're gonna be all right now

(Downtown, downtown)
Downtown (Downtown)
Downtown (Downtown)

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along
So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares

So go downtown - things will be great when you're
Downtown - don't wait a minute more
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

(Downtown, downtown)
Downtown (Downtown)
Downtown (Downtown)

Kommentar: Zu hoch, viel zu hoch! Das war wohl der mit Abstand schlechteste Auftritt. Ich habe mir einfach zu viel zugemutet. Dabei lief die Vorbereitung fast perfekt. Ich habe früh mit dem Proben angefangen, konnte das Lied nahezu auswendig, doch gebracht hat es nichts. Denn es kommt immer noch auf die Stimme an, doch diese hat gänzlich versagt. Klaus sagte nur noch "Da hast Du Dir aber einen hohen Song ausgesucht." Tja, was will man machen. Immerhin bin ich um eine, wenn auch schmerzvolle Erfahrung reicher.
