I've Noticed That No One Uploaded The Lyrics To The Original Lady Marmalade By Labelle, So HERE YOU GO ! :) No Rude Comments Please ! && Please Don't Try To Correct Me On Anything
Art Neville, who played the Hammond organ on "Lady Marmalade", passed away on July 22nd, 2019 at his home in New Orleans, he was 81 years old... Art Neville was a keyboardist and singer who was a founding member of the Neville Brothers and the Meters. Known as 'Poppa Funk', Neville was a staple of the New Orleans music scene, who helped shape the city’s signature sound... The Meters, formed in 1965, were among the originators of funk, performing their own songs as well as backing artists including Lee Dorsey, Robert Palmer, and Doctor John. They were honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018... In 1977, Neville founded the Neville Brothers along with his brothers Aaron, Charles, and Cyril. Their notable songs include “Sister Rosa” and “Healing Chant,” which won a Grammy Award in 1989... In later years, Neville formed the Funky Meters along with some members of the original group... He continued playing with them until his retirement in late 2018... May he R.I.P.
@@CieraMatlock It is a turn of phrase. It means exactly "would you like have sex with me tonight ". Asked in a very polite way. The "vouvoiement" is used
ah, I've also waited for a very long time to know these lyrics!!! I just texted a friend an innocent sign off, Lady Marmalade, then wondered what I had said, so I looked the lyrics up and found them here! So many thanks. I still think this is a great song, and I love the beat!
Man it's 2019 and I can't believe you can actually pulled this song up on RU-vid and as you pulled up old school songs like this on RU-vid it tells you that every old school song you pulled up on RU-vid actually still exist and I can't believe this song still exist thank you RU-vid
wooooooooooo,,What a memories this song bough to me ,been a teenager, always find the funky sound of this song very appealing to me.....thanks to post the lyrics as well... .
Thank you for your upload and especially with the French lyrics. I got a feeling what they mean but I'm gonna go find out for sure. I love this song!!!
This song is just PERFECT for today!....Yet I don't think most people - including them Singers - REALIZED Exactly what this song was about. That's why this masterpiece is better NOW than it was THEN
Some more corrections: "he sat in her boudoir while she freshened up...." and "Now he's at home doing 9 to 5; living his grey flannel life". A reference to the book/movie The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit. About a man that appears to be a typical, unremarkable everyday businessman, but has more going on underneath.
No rude comment from me at all! Just brilliant and I love it! Thank you for Your UPLauDE with Lyrics. I adore this song. How great was music then! It's "hey sister, go sister, soul sister, FLOW sister"
I appreciate you did this you could have been shellfish but no as a good person you thought about us and made this video I have always been wanting it 😘😘 thank you
Thanks for posting. Yeah, I got the lyrics wrong, too - and I remember the song when it came out in 1974. "Creole Lady Marmalade" and not "See your Lady Marmalade".
Most disturbing moment of my life: My 75 year old mother singing along to this song in the car. I always pronounced "Mar-muh-lay'd" but not "Mar-muh-lah'd". No body: Absolutely no body: Me: Mocha Chocalata Ya Ya!!!!!
Hey diamond, thx for uploading, I really do appreciate it! I know you don't like corrections, but often us performers are looking for help, and we definitely wanna get it right when we're on stage. So in that spirit, I just wanna add this: The second verse starts off "He sat in her boudoir while she freshened up..." As for the rest, thanks again for helping me pull it off, it's a fun surprise when a guy with an acoustic tears this up!
ME too and am 61n1/2 n counting,!!!!!always took Spanish 'cause heard it wuz EZer than the others,.. had 2wait til got GOOD on my coputer here this many years later to learn anything wanted to KNOW from past,!!!!
If this song wasn't exist anymore you won't be able to pulled it up on RU-vid but I'm glad it still exist I mean every old school song still exist you might not hear it play on radio station anymore but you still can listen to it on RU-vid or your music app
just got to work & heard this on Tom Joyner Morning Show...had to STOP & listen to the WHOLE song, texting my cousin in Delaware the whole time...knew I had to come find a posting with the lyrics..thanks Destinee! (stuck again -- can't start work til it goes off...sitting down now though, getting my office desk chair zumba-boogie ON!!!) Gonna make that 1st screen my ringtone....
I saw some lyrics that had the lyrics all mixed-up. I reason that, "Now he's at home to 9 to 5, wearing his gray flannel life! Like a flannel work shirt, referring to the fact that he was back at work. I literally saw that in a set of lyrics. Sometimes, people post lyrics to songs on social media and they be all wrong. It wasn't that I didn't understand Ms Patti, it's was someone who posted mixed lyrics. I have a few mixed-up lyrics for Aretha as well, but I was certain of what she said having heard live performances, I knew the lyrics was mixed up for sure. Thank you for this because, I always felt a ting of awkwardness when I would say those lyrics. Like; this just doesn't make sense. I have to get this right. 😩 let me change it. But believe it or not, my hearing is getting better, because while sing with the song I would say to myself, what I was saying didn't sound exactly like what she was saying. But I knew I read a set of lyrics. They were wrong. I have those set of lyrics. They also had Ta Ta, not Da Da. It's refreshing when you get it right.
I heard this song a while back when I was in headstart it's been so many years now that I can actually listen to it on RU-vid Because back in that day we didn't had RU-vid or broadcast not even no kind of Wi-Fi wireless noun of that
When I hear this song, I always think of that scene in Beethoven where that creepy babysitter plays it on the organ and the two older kids are initially bored, but eventually get into it and sing along.
So you don't care if you have errors in your lyrics? Well I do. Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, go sister Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, go sister He met Marmalade down in old New Orleans Struttin 'her stuff on the street She said, "Hello, hey Joe You wanna give it a go?" Mmm, gitchi gitchi ya ya da da Gitchi gitchi ya ya here Mocca chocolata ya ya Creole Lady Marmalade Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? He sat in her boudoir while she freshed up That boy drank all that magnolia wine On her black satin sheet's where He started to freak Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da Gitchi gitchi ya ya here Mocca chocalata ya ya Creole Lady Marmalade Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? (Instrumental) Hey hey hey Touching her skin feeling silky smooth Color of cafe au lait Made the savage beast inside Roar until it cried, "More, more, more" Now he's at home doing 9 to 5 Living his gray flannel life But when he turns off the screen Old memories scream more, more, more Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da da Gitchi gitchi ya ya here Mocca chocolata ya ya Creole Lady Marmalade Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? Voulez-vous couchez avec moi, ce soir? Creole Lady Marmalade Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? (repeat: song fades)
Thank you for clearing that up. I really don't like it when people get it wrong. How simple is it to double check? I have heard another version of this song on RU-vid that was performed in New Orleans. It's under French translation to Lady Marmalade. I think it is just more of the song. It should however say Creole translation instead of French. I went back and found it. The site is "learn things". The title is "Lady Marmalade French English version francaise Lyrics Songs Translation LaBelle subtitles". The Moulin Rouge Movie song release promotion with Mya, Pink, Christina, and Lil' Kim, also has different lyrics and arrangements from Patti Labelle version. My favorite will always be Patti Labelle's. That lady has Soul, Creole, the blues, and jazz inside her voice.
Most disturbing moment of my life: My 75 year old mother singing along to this song in the car. living his grey flannel life. old memories creep. Jacob's ladder that disgusting bat...
Going back thru all the 70s-80s hits my momma used to play on the radio that i grew to love😃 realizing most of them were just about sex😭 oh well I'm hardly surprised tho bc it's literally the exact same way with our music. Atleast back then they knew how to make it sound sophisticated nshit🤷🏾♂️
