Queen Latifah - California Dreamin

 

Queen Latifah -
California Dreamin

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray.
I've been for a walk on a winter's day.
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.

Stopped in to a church I passed along the way.
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray.
You know the preacher liked the cold.
He knows I'm gonna stay.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray.
I've been for a walk on a winter's day.
If I didn't tell her I could leave today.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.

이 곡은 2004년에 발표한 [The Dana Owens Album] 앨범에 수록되어있다.
이 앨범에서 그녀는 그간 보여줬던 거친 래퍼가 아닌 부드럽고 진한 재즈 싱어의 면모을 보여주었다.
2005년 그래미에서 <베스트 재즈 보컬 앨범> 부문에 노미네이트 되면서 그녀의 또다른 재능이
결코 가볍지 않음을 입증한다.
