Macca + Ringo + George Martin = Beautiful Night (1997)

"Beautiful Night" is a song by Paul McCartney and is the thirteenth track on his 1997 album Flaming Pie. In December 1997, it was released as the third and final single from that album, peaking at #25 in the UK Singles Chart (see 1997 in British music).

The song was originally recorded in August 1986 in New York, but never released in the United States. That version can be heard on the CD single as part of the "Oobu Joobu" section.

The song features the first of two collaborations McCartney performed with Ringo Starr on Flaming Pie (the second being "Really Love You") as well as an orchestration by George Martin, recorded at Abbey Road Studios. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Someone’s gone out fishing,
someone’s high and dry.
Someone’s on a mission to the lonely Lorelei.
Some folk’s got a vision of a castle in the sky
and I’m left stranded, wondering why.
You and me together,
nothing feels so good,
even if I get a medal from my local neighbourhood
I won’t need a castle, they’ve got castles in Versailles
and i’m still stranded, wondering why.
Make it a beautiful night for me,
it’s a beautiful night for love,
a wonderful sight for lovers of love to behold.
Make it a beautiful night for me,
it’s a beautiful night for love,
a wonderful sight for lovers of love to behold.
Some boat’s on the ocean,
we’re here in this room,
seems to me the perfect way to spend an afternoon.
We can look for castles, pretty castles in the sky,
no more wondering, wondering why.
Things can go wrong, things can go right,
things can go bump in the dead of the night.
So let me be there, let me be there,
let me be there with you in the dead of the night.
Make it a beautiful night for me,
it’s a beautiful night for love,
a wonderful sight for lovers of love to behold.
Make it a beautiful night for me,
it’s such a beautiful night for love,
such a wonderful sight for lovers of love to behold.
Yeah, it’s a beautiful night,
yeah, it’s a beautiful night.
Ah -
yeah, beautiful night, beautiful night,
yeah, it’s such a beautiful night, beautiful, beautiful night.
Yeah
beautiful night, beautiful night, beautiful night,
beautiful night, beautiful night, beautiful night,
beautiful night, beautiful night, beautiful night.
Yeah!
Beautiful night, beautiful night, (beautiful) beautiful night,
(ooh) beautiful night, (it’s a beautiful, beautiful night) beautiful night, beautiful night,
beautiful night, beautiful night, beautiful night.
Beautiful night, beautiful night, beautiful night, (ooh)
beautiful night, beautiful night, beautiful night. (yeah)
“lordie, lordie..”
-”mighty mama!”
“give me that…
(”beautiful night)
“away, on your way, thank you!”
Y podría traducirse de la siguiente manera
Alguien ha salido a pescar
Alguien está en la estacada
Alguien está en una misión en la solitaria Lorelei
Algunos ven un castillo en el aire
Y yo estoy aquí tirado, preguntandome por qué.
Tu y yo juntos,
No hay sentimiento mejor,
Ni aunque me pongan una medalla en mi barrio
No necesito un castillo, tienen castillos en Versalles
Y yo estoy aquí tirado, preguntandome por qué.
Haz que sea una bonita noche para mí,
Es una bonita noche para el amor,
Una maravillosa estampa para que los amantes la contemplen.
Haz que sea una bonita noche para mí,
Es una bonita noche para el amor,
Una maravillosa estampa para que los amantes la contemplen.
Algún barco está en el océano,
Nosotros estamos aquí en esta habitación,
Me parece la forma perfecta de pasar una tarde
Podemos buscar castillos, bonitos castillos en el aire
Sin preguntarnos más el por qué.
Las cosas pueden estropearse, las cosas pueden arreglarse
Pueden aparecer de golpe en plena noche
Déjame estar aquí, déjame estar aquí
Déjame estar aquí en plena noche
Haz que sea una bonita noche para mí,
Es una bonita noche para el amor,
Una maravillosa estampa para que los amantes la contemplen.
Haz que sea una bonita noche para mí,
Es una bonita noche para el amor,
Una maravillosa estampa para que los amantes la contemplen.
