Escrita por Chet Powers,
foi lançada em julho de 1967 pelos Youngbloods, no compacto que
tinha All my dreams blue como Lado B. A canção é um apelo à paz e
irmandade, apresentando a polaridade amor x medo e a escolha que deve
ser feita entre eles.
Já havia sido
originalmente lançada como Let's get together pelo Kingston Trio em
1 de junho de 1964. Depois foi regravada pelo We Five, em 1965. Essa
versão chegou ao número 31 dos charts pop americanos.
Depois, foi regravada pelo
Jefferson Airplane, em agosto de 1966.
A nossa versão, dos
Youngbloods, mudou o título somente pr Get Together.
Tambem foi regravada por
Dave Clark Five, em 1970, entre outros artistas.
A letra:
Love is but a song to
sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Some may come and some may
go
We shall surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading in the grass
We shall surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading in the grass
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
If you hear the song I
sing
You will understand (listen!)
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at you command
You will understand (listen!)
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at you command
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
