美國黑人歌姬［佩蒂拉貝爾］──靈魂／放克／後迪斯可佳作──［Release (The Tension)／釋放(緊張)］

Re, re, re, re, re, re, re, re

Release yourself

Release, release

Release yourself

Every days a new day, everyday was carved

Move in to the rhythm thats repeating in your heart

Every days a challenge, every day well try

Lines got to find in toe to toe when I had you on

Re, re, re, re, re, re, re

Release yourself

Re, re, re, re, re, re, re

Release yourself

Living for tomorrow, got your dreams all laid away

Ah, theres so much pressure, you deserve a break today

(Release)

Every things a problem and you cant take much more

Turn up the music, get your body on the floor

Re, re, re, re, re, re, re

Release yourself

Re, re, re, re, re, re, re

Release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Get up, get down, get up, get out

Do this, do that, solve your problem

Or no, you better jump that

Get up, go on, get up, get on

I do, I dont

Maybe I will but maybe I wont

Release, release, release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Release, release, release yourself

Youre overworked, youre underpaid

You gotta make it to the top, you gotta make the grade

Youre overworked, youre underpaid

You gotta make it to the top, you gotta make the grade

Overtime, youre earning, earning

But you lose your mind, you crash and burn

Overtime, youre earning, earning

But you lose your mind, you crash and burn

Why dont you just try to relax?

Cool it, cool it, cool it

Just a little

Got to find a new way, got to make us count

Listen to the rhythm thats repeating in your heart

Youve got the power, drink it off the shelf

If you dont enjoy your life, you can blame nobody else so

Why dont you let, let yourself go?

Why dont you let, let yourself go?

Why dont you let, let yourself go?

Why dont you let, let yourself go?

Release, why dont you? Why dont you?

Release, why dont you? Let it go

Release, why dont you? Why dont you?

Release, why dont you? Let it go

Why dont you? Why dont you?

Why dont you? Let it go

Why dont you? Why dont you?

Why dont you? Let it go

Let it go, let it

Let it go, let it

Let it go, let it

Let it go, go

Let it go, let it

Let it go, love it

Let it go, love it

Let it go

Let it re, re, re, release, release

(Release yourself, relax and let it go)

Release, release, release

(Release yourself)

Release, release, release

(Release yourself)

Release, release

(Release yourself)

１９８０年３月　將屆３６歲的美國黑人靈魂歌姬佩蒂拉貝爾（Patti LaBelle）推出第四張大碟［Released／釋放］（Epic唱片）

製作人換為Allen Toussaint

雖然樂評不差, 但商業表現依舊不佳, 只登上Billboard專輯榜＃１１４　副榜－靈魂榜＃２１

首支主打為［Release (The Tension)／釋放(緊張)］

此曲由Allen Toussaint譜寫／製作成一首靈魂／放克／後迪斯可　中板節拍討巧迷人

只是單飛後的佩蒂人氣始終不振, 跟前三張大碟主打一樣, 並沒擠入Billboard單曲榜

副榜成績亦不出色：靈魂榜＃６１　舞曲榜＃４８

不過在荷蘭進入單曲榜Top２０

這是拉貝爾一首名氣雖然不高, 但十分耐聽的靈魂／放克／後迪斯可佳作
