(Još jedan) mali evergreen-podsjetnik (s albuma "Albatros", Fleetwood Mac, 1977); prema masovno obrađivanom originalu Ette James iz 1967 (između ostalih obradio ju je i Rod Steward a u novije vrijeme Beyoncee).
Pjevačica
Christine Perfect izvodila je ovu numeru dok je pjevala u grupi
Chicken Shack 1969. godine. Christine je ovaj klasik jednostavno savršeno osjetila i svojim prepoznatljivim vokalom udarila joj nezaboravan "pečat". Prelaskom u "Fleetwood Mac" Christine postaje mrs.McVie...i još jednom se na spomenutom albumu, "bavi" istim prelijepim blues-klasikom. Zanimljiva je usporedba isti vokal, ista pjesma - drugi bend...
! No longer available! No longer available! No longer availableI would rather go blindEtta JonesSomething told me it was over
When I saw you and her talking,
Something deep down in my soul said, "cry girl"',
When I saw you and that girl, walking out.
Ooo I would rather, I would rather go blind boy,
Than to see you, walk away from me child, and all
Ooooo so you see, I love you so much
That I don't want to watch you leave me baby,
Most of all, I just don't, I just don't want to be free no
Ooo I was just, I was just, I was just sitting here thinking
Of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah,
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips, now baby,
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah.
Ooo and baby, baby, I would rather, I would rather be blind boy
Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Ooo baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind now
