From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
| «Have You Heard the Word» | |
|---|---|
 |
|
| Single by The Fut | |
| Released | 7 March 1970 |
| Recorded | 6 August 1969 |
| Genre | Psychedelic pop |
| Length | 4:39 |
| Label | Beacon |
| Songwriter(s) | Steve Kipner, Steve Groves |
| Producer(s) | Maurice Gibb |
«Have You Heard the Word» is a song attributed to The Fut. Written by Steve Kipner and Steve Groves, it is the band’s only single. Most of the vocals were sung by Maurice Gibb, in the style of John Lennon. The B-side «Futting» was an instrumental.[1] It was released as a single on 7 March 1970 but did not chart.[2]
Recording and aftermath[edit]
«Have You Heard the Word» was recorded on 6 August 1969 at IBC Studios during a session for Groves and Kipner’s group Tin Tin. That day, Maurice Gibb had broken his arm falling down a flight of stairs. He showed up to the recording wearing a cast and under the effect of painkillers. Kipner and Groves were not happy with the song to begin with, and as the session deteriorated, they left. Maurice gave his vocals (an impression of John Lennon) to tape and played bass as well in his distinctive style despite his injuries. Lawrie recalls that he might have been there too, but admits his memory of the late 1960s is «none too good».[3]
This song was credited to The Fut. Years later, Gibb said that he had no idea how that happened. The record appeared in early 1970, with rumours that it was one of The Beatles, perhaps a bootleg recording. The recording was so plausible as a Lennon song that Yoko Ono and Lenono Music, cleaning house in 1985, registered a copyright on it as a song written by John Lennon, even though Lennon had earlier denied participation.[4] Later in May 1974, on RSO tapes, this song was credited as a Kipner/Groves composition, although BMI listed it as by Kipner, Groves and Lawrie.[3]
Personnel[edit]
- Maurice Gibb — lead vocals, bass
- Steve Groves — lead vocals, guitar
- Steve Kipner — lead vocals, piano
- Billy Lawrie — background vocals
- Uncredited — drums

Have you ever thought about the future? One of the most amazing predictions I have heard about the twenty-first century is that we will be living longer and longer. Scientists will have TURNED / MADE / COME / FOUND up with a cure for a lot of diseases that people die of at the moment. They say that by the year 2050, the average person’s life-span will have GONE / RISEN / TURNED / COME to one hundred years.
They also predict that work will take ON / UP / OVER / AWAY less of our lives and we will have more free time to spend. Robots, which will look more and more like human beings, will have taken UP / OFF / OVER / IN a lot of the boring everyday jobs we do today. In the next ten years, the

This is not science fiction: the optimists say that by the year 2020 we will have created humanoids with brains similar to those of an adult human being.

However, many experts feel pessimistic about the future. They predict that people themselves will look like robots.

Запись и последствия
«Have You Heard the Word» был записан 6 августа 1969 года в IBC Studios на сеансе Tin Tin. В тот день Морис Гибб сломал руку, упав с лестницы. Он появился в гипсе и укололся болеутоляющими, и продолжил пользоваться открытым баром в студии. Кипнеру и Гроувсу с самого начала не понравилась эта вялая песня, и, когда сессия ухудшилась, они ушли. Морис записал на пленку свои лучшие вокальные впечатления от Джона Леннона и каким-то образом сыграл на басу в своем отличительном стиле. Лори вспоминает, что он, возможно, тоже был там, но признает, что его воспоминания о конце 1960-х не очень хороши.
Эта песня была записана на The Future. Спустя годы Гибб сказал, что понятия не имеет, как это произошло. Пластинка появилась в начале 1970 года, и по слухам, эта песня была одной из The Beatles, возможно, бутлегной записью. Запись была настолько правдоподобной, как песня Леннона, что Йоко Оно и Lenono Music, убирая дом в 1985 году, зарегистрировали авторское право на нее как на песню, написанную Джоном Ленноном, хотя у Леннона было ранее отрицали участие в этой песне. Позже, в мае 1974 года, на кассетах RSO эта песня была отмечена как композиция Кипнера / Гроувса, хотя BMI перечислила ее как Кипнера, Гроувса и Лори.

Song Lyrics[]
Read the writing on the wall
And the love inside to you
Have you heard the word? Have you heard the word
And the love inside you
The reality that will bring us altogether
Oh, oh, oh, have you heard the word?
Have you heard the word?
You obviously haven’t read the writing on the wall
So we’ll sing it now
And we’ll look inside you
Have you heard the word?
And the love inside you
Bring it altogether now
All together now
Everybody sing together now
Have you heard the word?
