Shake - Jesse Borrego - Song of the Week



The lyric "We talk and we live World's apart, But she can be gentle in the dark." comes from "Shake" from the Season 4 episode "Danny De Bergerac", written by Gerard McMahon Aka G Tom Mac. It is performed by Jesse Borrego.





Gotta Rap the Blasters got the Jams,
Ain't nobody got the master plan.
Put the shock in the streets on the walls,
We can dance up and down the halls.

Don't Stop, Let Go, yea
Jump my lingo woah,

Gonna jump on the train, underground,
Look at my pieces all around,
I come down here and spend my time,
Placing my bets and paint the sign.

No gain no wars
one, two, three, four,
Shout, turn it up louder.

Shake, rocking and a jumping the night away,
I gotta Shake, All I gotta know is you want me.
Woah.

We talk and we live World's apart,
But she can be gentle in the dark.
The test of time will only tell,
I guess I'll never know her well.

No Chain no rope
Some come Some go,
Hey, turn it up louder.

Shake, rocking and a jumping the night away, oh
I gotta Shake, All I gotta know is you want me.
I wanna Shake, rocking and a jumping the night away, oh
I Wanna Shake, All I gotta know is you want me.
Oh Yeah.

Don't Stop, Let Go, woah
one, two, three, four,
Shout, turn it up louder.

Shake rocking and a jumping the night away, oh
I Wanna Shake, All I gotta know is you want me.
I Wanna Shake,  rocking and a jumping the night away,
I Wanna Shake, All I gotta know is you want me.
I Wanna Shake,  rocking and a jumping the night away, oh
I Wanna Shake.

I think Jesse was probably the best male singer the show had

I wasn't sure about Jesse at first but I think because he was so closely associated with Nia, who I love, then I warmed to him.

Some of Jesse's ballads are some of my favourite songs on the show: "The Other Side Of The Road", "What Am I To Be" and "Come What May She Believes". His voice has a nice tone on those. Although there are other songs I feel he's a bit screachy.

I think all the cast improved vocally the longer they spent on the show. Carlo and Gene both improved and they have some good songs too.
