上上禮拜天晚上看Fox電影台的首映片《The Hitman's Bodyguard》( 台譯：殺手保鑣 )，影片故事平淡，槍戰、打鬥誇張，不太合台長我的口味，所以未等看完結局就先睡了，而倒是在片中聽到了這首《Just Because》的片段。
殺手保鑣劇照
而好景不常。1954，Lloyd Price被徵召當兵去了，等服役完回來，情況丕變，他在公司的地位被Little Richard給取代，甚至原來幫他開車的表弟Larry Williams，也成為了同公司的歌手，並發行了歌曲。想當時的Lloyd Price一定覺得很不是滋味，最後終於和朋友另組了KRC唱片公司。而這首《Just Because》即是該公司於1957的「首發砲」，並一舉中的，在R&B排行榜獲得了第3名，距他之前的歌曲入榜，已睽違了有4年之久。
英國披頭合唱團於1970散夥後各自發展，主唱John Lennon於1975翻唱此曲，並收錄在他《Rock 'n' Roll》專輯中。John Lennon在歌詞中作了些改變及加了些口白，感覺像是在述說他自己的故事。歌曲最後的Goodbye，再映照John Lennon於1980遭槍擊身亡，聽來頗令人傷感。此為分手的情歌，歌詞「Darling, I would rather let you go」，雖百般不捨，還是寧願放手。這也是「愛妳不到，祝妳幸福！」的良好範例。

亂談(726)Send Me Some Lovin' / Little Richard
Just because you left and said goodbye
Do you think that I will sit and cry
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling I would rather let you go
Just because you think that you're so smart
Going around and breaking lovers hearts
Before I let this thing happen to me
Darling I would rather swim the sea
I know you think you're smart
Just going around breaking lovers hearts
Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart as good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking far too much
Darling please don't ever break my heart
I know you think you're smart
Just going around breaking lovers hearts
Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart as good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking far too much
Darling please don't ever break my heart
Ah, remember this?
Why, I must have been thirteen when this came out!
Or was it fourteen?
Or was it twenty-two?
I could have been twelve actually
Just because you left and said goodbye
Do you think that I will sit and cry?
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling, I would rather let you go
Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart as good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking for too much
Darling, please don't ever break my heart
I know you think you're smart
Just runnin' around breaking lovers hearts
Just because you left and said goodbye, hey
Do you think that I will sit and cry?
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling, I would rather let you go
"it's too late darling;
you just gotta say goodbye.
why, the last time i saw you... you were wearing man's clothes.
not that i'm prejudiced, but you know...?
but who am i to hassle you like this? i'm just gonna have to let you go."
"there's two basses in this; i hope you appreciate it.
"this is doctor winston o'boggie saying goodnight
From record plant east, New York
We hope you had a swell time
Ev'rybody here says hi
Goodbye
Just because you left and said goodbye
Do you think that I will sit and cry?
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling, I would rather let you go
Uh-uh-uh, goodbye
Uh-uh-uh, so long
Been a long year
