I died last night
I had a bad dream
A ghostly air surrounded my bed
Demons gripped me
A blue demon stuck me his fork in me
Red blood trickles
Ah, this is
it’s hell, it’s hell
I died last night
I had a bad dream
A ghostly air surrounded my bed
The demons threw the sinner into the flames
Ah, this is
it’s hell, it’s hell
I had a dream last night
I had a bad dream
But this is
my fate
From this kind of fate
escape, escape, escape
Someone will
wake me before then

母がこの歌が好きで探していました。
母はスマホデビュー5日目なので変わりにコメント打ってほしいと言われました。

４０数年前、何故かジャズ喫茶でこの曲が流れていて物凄く衝撃を受けました。その後アルバムも買いました。

ゆべあたしが死んだ
嫌な夢を見たのさ
妖気がベットを取り巻いてた
悪魔達があたしを待っていた
青鬼はあたしにフォークを
フォークを突き刺した
あたしは苦しさに
呻き悶えた
悪魔達の口から
赤い血がしたたり
ああ これは
地獄だ地獄さ
ゆべあたしが死んだ
嫌な夢を見たのさ
妖気がベットを取り巻いてた
悪魔達は罪人を
火の中に投げ込んだ
ああこれは
地獄だ地獄さ
ゆべあたしは夢を見た
嫌な夢を見たのさ
だけどこれは
あたしの運命さ
こんなあたしの運命から
逃げて逃げて逃げれて
誰かがあたしを
起こすその時まで

Done Bessie Smith proud!

I was blown away to find this! Wow! I cover Bessie tunes, and I gear up for this one when Halloween is a few months away. This woman is wonderful!

This is a proper beautiful track! Can someone from Japan recommend me more?

[@staticdistance]

Not from Japan, but I can recommend a couple other albums if you dig this:
Hako Yamasaki - Tsunawatari
Morita Doji - Mother Sky
Sachiko Kanenobu - Misora

[@AlecsStan]

@@staticdistance Thank you brother!

[@staticdistance]

@@AlecsStan I'd be remiss if I didn't also recommend Bessie Smith's original version of "Blue Spirit Blues."

[@AlecsStan]

@@staticdistance I think Asakawa's take is better but damn, kudos for knowing the original.
