"Spill the Wine" is a 1970 song performed by Eric Burdon and War. Released as a single in May 1970 (backed by the non-album track "Magic Mountain"), it was War's first chart hit, peaking at number three in the US. ''Billboard'' ranked the record as the No. 20 song of 1970.〔Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1970〕 It was also a top three hit in Canada and Australia. It charted #15 in Netherlands and #28 in Germany. In 1996, it was remixed by Junior Vasquez and released as a single again. Lonnie Jordan said in an 2008 interview that Eric Burdon is the first Latin rapper in pop music. The single version omits the middle spoken recitation, plus one Chorus. A sound of a French woman is heard in the background. A flute solo also dominates the song. In the introduction to the live version of the song on ''Greatest Hits Live'', Lonnie Jordan reveals that the inspiration for the song was a time when he spilled a glass of wine on a mixing board in the recording studio. Eric Burdon found the event funny, so he and Jordan used it as the inspiration for the song. ==Use in film== "Spill the Wine" was used in the popular motion pictures ''Boogie Nights'', ''Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo'' and ''Remember the Titans''. It was also sung during the ''The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air'' episode, "That's No Lady, That's My Cousin". The song can also be heard in the ''Dexter'' episode "A Horse of a Different Color", while main characters Joey Quinn and Angel Batista are smoking a joint. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spill the Wine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
