Earth, Wind & Fire avslöjar den sanna historien bakom 'Reasons'

Earth, Wind & Fire-sångaren Philip Bailey har i ett nytt dokumentärklipp delat med sig av den verkliga inspirationen bakom bandets hit 'Reasons' från 1975. Låten, som länge varit ett stående inslag på bröllop, härrör från ett tillfälligt möte snarare än romantik.

I ett klipp från Questloves dokumentär Earth, Wind & Fire (To Be Celestial vs That’s the Weight of the World) berättar Bailey om hur han skrev låten efter att ha tillbringat natten med en kvinna som redan var i ett förhållande. Han vaknade av att hon pratade i telefon med sin partner och beskrev mötet som ett rent sexäventyr. Anderson .Paak och H.E.R. medverkar i klippet och uttrycker förvåning över låtens ursprung, då de alltid har tolkat Baileys falsett som att den förmedlar ren romantik. Bailey svarar med misstro och frågar hur lyssnarna kunde se den som en kärlekslåt. Dokumentären, som hade premiär på Tribeca Film Festival, har planerad debut på HBO den 7 juni. Den innehåller intervjuer med bandmedlemmarna Verdine White och Ralph Johnson samt Barack och Michelle Obama, som minns att låten spelades på deras skolbaler.
