Zoë Më - «Texas Hold 'Em» (Beyoncé Cover) | Best Talent – Juli 2024 | SRF 3

Beyoncé covern?! Risky business! Das fanden auch die Friends von Zoë Më. Doch das «SRF 3 Best Talent» vom Juli 2024 stellte sich der Herausforderung und nahm sich vor, aus dem Country-Überhit «Texas Hold 'Em» eine eigene Version zu machen.

Und diese besteht aus der reduzierten Begleitung durch ein Piano – und einen vierstimmigen Chor. «Beyoncé ist eine Queen», sagt die 23-Jährige, «warum sollte ich also für mein Cover nicht viele Queens zusammentrommeln? In der Schweiz gibt’s schliesslich so viele tolle weibliche Acts, die Unterstützung verdient haben.»

In dieser Konstellation haben die fünf Frauen vorher noch nie zusammen Musik gemacht – sollten sie in Zukunft aber öfters tun, wenn dabei solche Juwelen wie dieses «Texas Hold 'Em»-Cover entstehen.

Gesang & Keys: Zoë Më
Chor (von links): Ilajan, Keza, Le Cercle de Lou, Maggie

«SRF 3 Best Talent» zeichnet aufstrebende Musik-Acts aus der Schweiz aus und stellt sie je einen Monat lang in den Fokus.

LYRICS
–––––––––––––––––––––––––
This ain't Texas, ain't no hold 'em
So lay your cards down, down, down, down
So park your Lexus and throw your keys up
Stick around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round
And I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you
Come pour some sugar on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (Woo)

There's a tornado (There's a tornado) in my city (In my city)
Hit the basement (Hit the basement), that shit ain't pretty (Shit ain't pretty)
Rugged whiskey (Rugged whiskey) 'cause we survivin' ('Cause we survivin')
Off red cup kisses, sweet redemption, passin' time, yeah

Ooh, one step to the right
We headin' to the dive bar we always thought was nice
Ooh, run me to the left
Then spin me in the middle, boy, I can't read your mind

This ain't Texas (This ain't Texas), ain't no hold 'em (Ain't no hold 'em)

Stick around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round (Stick around)
And I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you
Come and pour some sugar on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (Woo)

And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you
Come and pour some liquor on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now

Too hot to think straight (Too hot to think straight), too cold to panic (Too cold to panic)
All of the problems (All of the problems) just feel dramatic (Just feel dramatic)
And now we're runnin' to the first spot that we find, yeah

Ooh, one step to the right
We headin' to the dive bar we always thought was nice
Ooh, you run to the left
Just work me in the middle boy, I can't read your mind

This ain't Texas (This ain't Texas), ain't no hold 'em (Ain't no hold 'em)
So lay your cards down, down, down, down
So park your Lexus (Park your Lexus) and throw your keys up (Throw your keys up)

And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you

Come and pour some sugar on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now
