Roxette的一首经典英文歌曲"Queen of Rain",在多雨的盛夏听来别有滋味。时光流逝,伤感的雨声似乎代表心灵的遗忘,Marie富有穿透力的嗓音在雨中回响,最爱那句“Time went by as I wrote yor name in the sky, fly fly away, bye bye. ”离开也会很有力量!
罗克赛特(Rocette),90年代瑞典第一支以前卫的形象和动听的摇滚流行乐风靡全球的组合。Roxette由Marie Fredriksson (1958年5月30日生于瑞典)和Per Gessle (1959年1月12日生于瑞典HALMSTAD)。Gessle在80年代初期便已成为一位独唱的歌星。Per和Marie1978年相识于哈尔姆斯塔德市的一家摇滚俱乐部,俩人都爱好美国60年代的摇滚乐。1986年,他们正式走到了一起,组建了Roxette,他们以特有的瑞典民谣风格的歌曲很快征服了瑞典进而席卷了整个美国。
Roxette的首张专辑〈Pearls Of Passion〉推出后在瑞典一炮而红,“joy of a toy”等众多歌曲均成为当年瑞典的热门歌曲。1987年圣诞期间,Roxette推出了新单曲唱片“It must have been love"(X'mas for the brokenhearted),此曲后来收入全球热门影片〈Pretty Woman〉(风月俏佳人)的电影原声专辑中,是Roxette最成功的作品。1989年,Roxette在EMI旗下推出了〈Look sharp〉专辑,迅速在世界各地走红。“the look”、“listen to your heart”带着悦耳动听的旋律和激动人心的节奏传遍了世界,也传入了我们的耳中。《The Look》奇迹般的成为19个国家流行榜的冠军歌曲,谭咏麟还将这首歌重新填词改变为“你知我知”在港台演唱。其他单曲如《Dressd For Success》、《Joyride》继续占据排行榜的前列。
歌词:
Queen Of RainRoxette
words: Per Gessle? music: Per Gessle & M.P. Persson
In that big big house there are fifty doors
and one of them leads to your heart.
In the time of spring I passed your gate
and tried to make a start.
All I knew
was the scent of sea and dew
but I've been in love before,
how about you?
There's a time for the good in life,
a time to kill the pain in life,
dream about the sun you queen of rain.
In that big old house there are fifty beds
and one of them leads to your soul.
It's a bed of fear,
a bed of threats, regrets and sheets so cold.
All I knew
your eyes so velvet blue,
I've been in love before,
how about you?
There's a time for the good in life,
a time to kill the pain in life,
dream about the sun you queen of rain.
It's time to place you bets in life,
I've played the loser's game of life,?
dream about the sun you queen of rain.
Time went by as I wrote yor name in the sky, fly fly away, bye bye.
It's time to place you bets in life,
I've played the loser's game of life,
dream about the sun you queen of rain.
dream about the sun you queen of rain.
dream about the sun you queen of rain.
dream about the sun you queen of rain. |
