Perfil

Rick James, nascido James Ambrose Johnson, Jr. (Buffalo, 1 de fevereiro de 1948 - Burbank, 6 de agosto de 2004), foi um cantor, compositor, multi-instrumentista e produtor norte-americano de funk e soul. Após iniciar sua carreira no The Mynah Birds, onde ficou de 1964 a 1966, e perambular por várias bandas locais, James seguiu uma prolífica carreira solo, iniciada em 1977, na qual destacam-se as músicas "You & I", "Mary Jane", "Give It to Me Baby" e "Super Freak". No início da década de 1990, a carreira de James foi prejudicada por seu vício em drogas e por problemas com a lei, chegando inclusive a ser preso. Em 2004, a carreira de James retornou à cultura pop mainstream depois que ele apareceu em um episódio do Chappelle's Show. O segmento envolveu uma esquete no estilo Charlie Murphy True Hollywood Stories que satirizou o estilo de vida selvagem de James nos anos 1980. Isso resultou em um interesse renovado por sua música e naquele ano ele voltou a se apresentar na estrada. James morreu alguns meses depois, de insuficiência cardíaca, aos 56 anos. == Biografia == James era o terceiro de oito filhos de um ex-dançarino que trabalhava na indústria automobilística. Era sobrinho de Melvin Franklin, vocalista do grupo The Temptations.

Versões de "Ebony Eyes"

Letra

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

Wind in your hair, sun on your skin
You're looking good, girl, all over again
Hey there, Miss Brown
I want you to know I love you

Brown as the sand, you're soft as the shore
You're leaving me hungry, I'm crying for more
Oh, we, baby, girl, you're such a score
And I want you to know that, you know what, girl

I love you
I bet you didn't know that, girl
You didn't know that
I need you
Right now, baby, right now, baby
And I bet you didn't know that ebony eyes

Ooh, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Ooh, hoo, hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh.

Lips soft and tender, ready to speak
Her voice says, "I love you" (I love you)
And it's making me weak
Hey there, little girl, may I just say I love you
Tell 'em how you feel, Rick

Love is the brown skin girl in my eyes
Think it's time that I told you, don't you realize
You´re such a queen, woman, you're such a prize
And I want you to know that, you know what, girl

I love you
And I bet you didn't know that, girl
You didn't know that
I need you
Right now, baby, right now, baby
And I bet you didn't know that ebony eyes

I love you ebony eyes, oh, my
I need you, woman
I need you (Oh)
Oh, and I bet you didn't know that ebony eyes

I really love you (Oh, oh), woman, I love you (Love you)
Ebony eyes (Ooh), oh, my
I want to say that I need you (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh), honey, I
Need you
And I bet you didn't know that ebony eyes

Ebony eyes (Woo, woo, ooh, woo, hoo)
Ebony eyes, oh, my (Hoo)
Ebony eyes (Hoo, hoo, hoo)
Girl, and I bet you didn't know that ebony eyes

Love you (Love you, love you)
Ebony eyes
