美國靈魂樂夫人［艾瑞莎富蘭克林］──New Jack Swing／舞曲──［Everyday People／普通人］

Sometimes Im right and I can be wrong

My own beliefs are in my song

The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then

Makes no difference what group Im in

I am everyday people, yeah yeah

There is a blue one who cant accept the green one

For living with a fat one trying to be a skinny one

And different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo-bee

Oh sha sha - we got to live together

I am no better and neither are you

We are basically the same whatever we do

You love me, you hate me you know me and then

You cant figure out the bag lm in

I am everyday people, yeah yeah

There is a long hair that doesnt accept the short hair

Sister and brothe lets be cool with each other, ooh

And different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo-bee

Oh sha sha-we got to live together

There is a yellow one

That aint into the red one, who dont like the black one

What about white one yall?

And different strokes for different folks

１９９１年　４９歲的美國靈魂樂夫人艾瑞莎富蘭克林（Aretha Franklin）發行大碟［What You Get Is What You Sweat／淋漓盡致］（Arista唱片）

但反應不佳　只拿到美國Billboard專輯榜＃５３　副榜──R&B榜＃２８　至今只賣出１８萬張, 創下成名後新低（除兩張成名前在哥倫比亞公司灌錄的舊輯新發外）

至於發行的幾首單曲完全沒打入流行單曲榜, 這還是１２年來首次出現

可說是艾瑞莎事業另一商業低點

首支主打［Everyday People／普通人］

這是翻唱Sly and the Family Stone於１９６８年發行, 登上Billboard單曲榜冠軍的迷幻靈魂曲經典

作者為Sly Stone, 由Narada Michael Walden製作成一首New Jack Swing／舞曲版

節拍輕快討好, 富蘭克林的靈魂唱腔盡情展現

［Everyday People］並沒入Billboard單曲榜, 但升到副榜──R&B榜＃１３　舞曲榜＃３３

雖然成績並不出色, 但卻是首精彩的翻唱
