I'm so glad I'm standing here today.

🇳🇱
vanuit Nederland
Ik heb de biografie van Joe Cocker bijna uit, hij is op de weg terug naar het podium zonder er af te vallen of er dronken op te klimmen, hij zingt als in zijn jonge jaren. Hij neemt een plaat op met the Crusaders die twee nummers voor hem schreven, I'm so glad I'm standing here today is Joe op het lijf geschreven, kijk naar de opname van de Grammies uit 1980 volgens mij, Joe komt op in zijn dagelijkse kleren, geen pak, tuxedo of zo en zingt de sterren van de hemel, ik kreeg er kippevel van.
I'm glad I'm standing here today:
There were times
I remember
Had to fight just to hold my head up
Those times when even my friends
Tried to make a fool of me
There were things that my heart looked at
That they just couldn't see
Some said I was hopeless
Mind tangled in the night
Strong hearts just keep goin'
That is why I'm still standing here today
Come together
Raise up your voices
This time my song of love and life won't go away
I'll sing forever
Here in the sunshine
I've lived to see the sun break through the storm
And I'm so glad I'm standing here today.
If your lost in your troubles
And the world just seems to forget you
If you remember sunshine
Even on your darkest day
Just follow what your heart says
And you will find the way
Some said I was hopeless
Mind tangled in the night
Strong hearts just keep goin'
That is why I'm still standing here today
Come together
Raise up your voices
This time my song of love and life won't go away
I'll sing forever
Here in the sunshine
I've lived to see the sun break through the storm
And I'm so glad I'm standing here today.
