Samuel’s Musician Of The Week: Van Morrison

August 16th, 2009 at 06:43pm

This week’s award goes to Van Morrison (aka George Ivan Morrison) and the feature song is Jackie Wilson Said, which is also the theme song for Tim Webster’s afternoon show on 2UE. 2CC also use an extract from the tail end of the song for Tim’s pre-recorded goodbye message at the end of each show.

Unfortunately the only video I can find of Van Morrison performing this song is of one of his later “I’ve really forgotten how to sing this song, but I’ll try and fail anyway” efforts, so instead you get a cut down version of the song on some bloke’s skiing video!

Jackie Wilson said, it was reet petite
Kind of love you got, knocks me off my feet
Let it all hang out, oh let it all hang out

Ahh you know, I’m so wired up
Don’t need no coffee in my cup
Let it all hang out, let it all hang out

Watch this
Dang a lang a lang, dang a lang a lang a dang
Dang a lang a lang, dang a lang a lang a dang
Doo doo doo doo doo

I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven
When you smile, when you smile
When you smile, when you smile

And when you walk across the road, it make my heart
go BOOM BOOM BOOM
Let it all hang out
Baby let it all hang out

There are times, you look my way
Heaven child, you’d make my day
Let it all hang it out
Like the man said let it all hang out

Watch out
Dang a lang a lang, dang a lang a lang a dang
Dang a lang a lang, dang a lang a lang a dang
Doo doo doo doo doo

I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven
When you smile, when you smile
I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven
When you smile, one more time

I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven
When you smile, when you smile

Bop, jop duop, jop jop, jop jop, jop duop duop duop duop
Doo-doop doo-doop doo-doop doo-doop doo-doop doo-doop doo-doop
Doo doo doo
