音乐咖啡厅:Father and son 父亲节快乐
1993年,通过在爱尔兰全国的选拔,五位帅气的小伙子在爱尔兰首都都柏林组成了 Boyzone演唱组。他们靠翻唱很快走红,94年,第一支单曲《Love Me For A Reason》获得了爱尔兰榜的亚军。随后于95年,他们发行了第一张专辑《Said And Done》。96年,他们的第二张专辑《A Different Beat》发行,其中翻唱老牌英国乐队Bee Gees的歌曲《Words》 于96年11月拿到了他们的首个排行榜冠军,Boyzone成为当红偶像组合。97年, 他们又发行了第三张专辑《Where We Belong》, 其中的歌曲《Picture Of You》被用作电影《Mr Bean》(《憨豆先生》)的主题歌。99年,Boyzone的新歌加精选专辑《By Request》发行,先于专辑发行的单曲《No Matter What》大获成功,击败《My Heart 1 Will Go On》等歌曲获得英国全年总冠军。他们还在U2的新歌《The Sweatest Thing》的Music Video中客串了一把。最近,关于Boyaone解散的传闻不断,Ronan、Stephen、Mike等成员也相继出了自己的歌曲和专辑;但据Ronan说, 成员们只是暂时自己发展,不久Boyzone还会一起唱歌, 他们的歌迷可以放心了。 Boyzone是爱尔兰最成功的偶像组合,也是Take That后欧洲最成功的男孩组合。他们在爱尔兰榜上有六首冠军单曲, 超过B*Witched的四首和U2的三首而名列第一。 新千年带给Boyzone的并不是更多的荣誉, 他们的成员相继单飞了,这使的这个曾经创造过辉煌的乐队光芒渐失,并且开始默默地陨落了。不过他们留下的那些脍炙人口的作品不会被人们忘记的。
英文歌词:
It's not time to make a change
Just relax--take it easy
You're still young--that's your fault 2
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle 3 down
If you want, you can marry 4
Look at me--I am old
But I'm happy
I was 5 once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To become when you've found 6
Something going 7 on
But take your time--think a lot
Think of everthing you've got 8
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams 9 may not...
How can I try to explain 10?
When I do--it turns away again
And it's always been the same
Same old story
From the moment I could 11 talk
I was ordered 12 to listen
Now there's a way, and I know
That I have to go away
I know, I have to go...
It's not time to make a change
Just sit down
and take it slowly 13
You're still young--that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me--I am old
But I'm happy
All the times, that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside 14
And it's hard
But it's harder to ignore 15 it
If they were right--I'd agree 16
But it's them--they know
Not me. Now there's a way, and I know
That I have to go away
I know, I have to go.
中文歌词:
现在不是改变时机的时候
放松,请放松
你依然年轻,那时你的缺点
你要知道的还很多
找一个女孩,安定你的生活
如果你需要,你可以结婚
看着我,我已年老,但我很快乐
我也曾经像你现在这样年轻
我也知道这样并不容易
当你发现有什么事情发生时,请保持镇定
但是好好把握时机,多用脑筋
考虑好你所得到的一切
因为明天你依然在此
虽然这可能并非你的梦想
努力要解释
因为他总是要回避我的所作所为
总是这样的情况,相同的故事
此时我能说,我应该去聆听
现在我知道,我必须离开
现在不是改变时机的时候
坐下,让所有的事情都慢慢进行
你依然年轻, 这时你的缺点
你还将经历更多的风雨
找一个女孩, 如果你想要结婚,就安定下来,
看着我,我已年老,但我依然很快乐
无数次 我曾独自哭泣
将所有的一切深埋在心底
那很不容易,忽视它的存在真实不容易
如果那是正确的,我将赞同你的决定
如果他们知道那是他们,不是我
现在,有一种辩法
我知道我必须离开....
我知道我必须离开....
