美國黑人歌姬［娜妲莉．高］──靈魂／迪斯可──［Stand By／做好準備］

Youve got to learn, youve got to learn how to follow the leader

Youve got to turn, turn off your pride and youre life will be sweeter

Love comes from God, surely, surely, surely you can see that

If you check out your heart, theres a part that youre keeping from me

Why dont you hold on tight, make this flight, weve got the whole night

Saddle up your gear, have no fear, we are here, hey

Better make it soon, give me room, come on and stand by me

Come on and stand by, cause there is no time, no time to sit

Ill bet youll be quick about it, and I know you will,

Once you learn that you cant live without it

Lord only knows how long, how long, how long I have waited

And the moment is near, line em up, get em ready at the gate

Were gonna keep em strong, moving on, weve got the whole night

No looking back, where its at, its right now, hey

Better make it soon, give me room, come on and stand by me

Theres gonna be no looking back, so baby, take everything youll ever need

Sure nough moving on, keep it strong, its a whole new game and a brand new street

You know, uh, you said you would if you could, Ill make it good to ya

Dont you stop til we get to the top, hey, ninety-nine and a half just wont do, stand by me

Hey, hey, if its real, what you feel, come on and stand by

Dont you stop til we get to the top, hey, ninety-nine and a half just wont do, stand by me

Come on and stand by, ha, stand by me, hey, hey, hey

(Repeat stand by me, hey, hey, hey)

１９７９年３月, ２９歲的美國黑人歌姬娜妲莉．高（Natalie Cole）

推出第五張大碟［I Love You So］（Capital唱片出版）

由Chuck Jackson, Marvin Yancy ,Gene Barge 製作, Kevin Hunter 擔任執行製作

除了原有的靈魂／R&B外, 並加入流行, 迪斯可曲風, 讓專輯更佳多元，樂評不錯。

大碟登上美國流行專輯榜＃５２, 靈魂專輯榜＃１１

雖然名次低於前四張大碟，但仍拿到金唱片（５０萬張＋），銷售不差．

首支主打為［Stand By／做好準備］

由娜妲莉＆Marvin Yancy譜寫

Chuck Jackson, Marvin Yancy, Gene Barge將其製作成一首靈魂／迪斯可

旋律討好, 節拍輕快

可是大眾反應不佳　並沒打入Billboard單曲榜, 只拿到榜外的＃１０９

但在副榜─靈魂榜表現不錯, ＃９

這是高在迪斯可年代的舞曲名作之一．

進入１９８０年代後，娜妲莉事業下滑，直到１９８７年才東山再起．
