Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

歌手簡介

Nina Simone

妮娜·西蒙（Nina Simone；1933年2月21日－2003年4月21日），美國歌手、作曲家與鋼琴表演家。原名尤妮斯·凱瑟林·偉蒙（Eunice Kathleen Waymon）、以藝名妮娜·西蒙著稱。雖然一般人認為她是一位優秀的爵士女伶、但妮娜不喜歡被這樣歸類。她的創作歌曲類型主要包括有藍調、節奏藍調和靈魂樂。她的演唱方式則以富有情感、帶有氣息的變化音（tremolo）為主要特色。

The Animals

動物樂隊是60年代初興起於英國節奏布魯斯舞台上的最重要的樂隊之一。在英國入侵的第一次浪潮中，動物樂隊是僅次於滾石樂隊的以節奏布魯斯為基礎的樂隊。他們所處的年代正是所謂的英國入侵時代，眾多來自英國的樂隊占據了美國的音樂舞台。在這次改變了美國搖滾音樂格局，甚至改變了整個搖滾音樂發展走向的運動中，動物樂隊一直是一股重要的力量。

歌詞

Baby, do you understand me now
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to be bad
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems that all I have do is worry
Then you're bound to see my other side
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I get my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do
Because I love you
Oh, Oh baby don't you know I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing some little simple thing I've done
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
