まずはじめ一曲目
Gold Digger/Kanye Westです。カニエといえば、もともとはプロデューサーとして、Jay-Zなどの活動を支えていましたね。
そんなカニエは2004年にアルバム"College Dropout"をリリースします。代表曲は"Through the wire" "Slow Jamz" "Jesus Walks"などでしょうか。
この"Gold digger"は二枚のアルバム"Late Registration"からのリリースです。
この曲はかっこいいす。クラブ感あります。ジェイミーフォックスがレイチャールズをまねて歌っている部分、かっこいいす。さすが元ネタですね。(I Got A Woman/ Ray Charles)歌詞は違って面白いです。
この曲の内容は、「金堀り女」という。(gold digger:金目当てで男と付き合う女性のこと)
Ray Charles版では献身的な彼女についてうたっているのに、このカニエ版では、"She gives me money when I'm in need"という歌詞を"She takes me money when I'm in need..."としているところが面白いです。(参考…songfacts.com)("This samples the 1954 Ray Charles song "I Got A Woman." Quite the opposite of "Gold Digger," Charles sings about a woman who is real good to him and very supportive, so much so that she gives him money when he needs it. So throughout "Gold Digger," Ray Charles is singing, "She gives me money when I'm in need." It works because Jamie Foxx appears on the intro to "Gold Digger" where he channels Ray Charles but changes the lyrics to "She takes my money when I'm in need." Foxx was very adept at impersonating Ray Charles, and for the rest of the song, most listeners will hear Charles' sample as "She takes my money." In 2004, Foxx won an Oscar for playing Ray Charles in the movie Ray. Foxx is an accomplished singer and pianist, and spent a lot of time learning how to portray Charles for the movie.")

Ray Charles - I Got A Woman
Gold digger
[Intro: Jamie Foxx]
She take my money, when I'm in need
Yea she's a trifling friend indeed ※trifling (adj)unimportant,trivial
Oh, she's a gold digger, way over town
That digs on me
(彼女は金をうばっていく、俺が困っているときに)(本当にどうしようもないやつさ)(彼女はこの町の金堀り女、俺は掘られていく)
[Hook]
(She give me money) Now I ain't saying she a gold digger (別に彼女のことを金目当て女だなんて言ってないけど)※(ここではShe give me moneyとなっている)
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messing with no broke niggas (金ないやつとはつるまないんだよな)
(She give me money) Now I ain't saying she a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messing with no broke niggas
Get down girl, go 'head, get down (I gotta leave) (ヨウヨウ、踊ってごらん)(とんずらしよう)
I got a woman
I GOT A WOMAN (Sweetie) way over town, (この町である女性に出会った)
She's (He's) good to me, Oh yeah! (とってもいい娘)
Well, I GOT A WOMAN (Sweetie) way over town,
She's (He's) good to me, Oh yeah!
Now she's (he's) my dreamboat, oh, yes indeed, (もうぞっこんである)
She's (He's) just the kind of girl (man) I need, (まさに僕のタイプ)
I found a woman (sweetie) way over town, She's (He's) good to me Oh
Yeah!
ということでした!
