Joe’s Legacy: A Tribute by Bob Adamski
Bob Adamski adds his magic to “It’s Only Love”, written by Jon Lennon and Paul McCartney.
We will post Bob’s original stuff too, soon. What a night. What a legacy.
Thank you Bob…
As for Joe, The Boys wrote it, Bob sang it, played it – I feel it, whenever I revisit with Joe in a song or in a video:
I get high when I see you go by…
My oh my.
hy
I get high when I see you go by
My oh my.
When you sigh, my, my insides just fly,
Butterfly.
Why am I so shy when I’m beside you?
It’s only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It’s only love, and that is all,
But it’s so hard loving you.
Is it right that you and I should fight
Every night?
Just the sight of you makes nighttime bright,
Very bright.
Haven’t I the right to make it up girl?
It’s only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It’s only love, and that is all
But it’s so hard loving you
Yes it’s so hard loving you — loving you.
Nice to be able to read the lyrics along with hearing him sing and play. Beautiful lyrics.
Thanks for sharing.
It’s like a completely different song, the way Bob sings and plays it. “Haunting” is the word, as you put it so well, Hy. I just love Bob’s interpretation of this song. I’ve had it in my head ever since I heard him sing it at the Host Hotel – and I’ve played it over and over. So glad you got it on video, Hy. Thank you Hy and Bob!
Bob…pitch perfect and great picking!
