演唱:艾佛利兄弟
这支乐队的影响力就在于他们是最早的二人合唱乐队,他们的和声极富特色,许多音乐组合像有名的甲克虫,西蒙芬克都深受The Everly Brothers兄弟乐队的影响。
每次听乡村音乐我就必定会听这首,all i have to do is dream的中文大意:只有寻梦去。这首歌在滚石杂志的The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time中排名141位。还被Richard Chamberlain,法国歌手Sheila等众多歌手翻唱过。后来还被多喜爱床上用品用作广告诱人入睡篇的背景音乐。
去年看了一部恐怖电影《新猛鬼街》的结尾曲居然用上了这首歌,我听了一下由the corrs的演唱版本,很符合电影的感觉。
the corrs的版本应该女生喜欢的多,清新又抒情。
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreamin’ my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreamin’ my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
第二首:sealed with a kiss
演唱者:Brian Hyland
布莱恩海兰不是一个高产的歌手,他的创作曲也不多,而且也只是高峰期那么几首。但是有一些人只要一首就能成为百年经典。
《Sealed with a kiss》是一首很具浪漫色彩的歌曲,夏天来临,主人公要与心爱的人分开一段日子,漫漫长夏,孤独又凄清,但主人公要把空虚填补:他要把每夜之梦写成书信,并以吻封缄,寄给自己心爱的人。第二节用几个排比句子,幻想心上人不在的日子却处处见到她。见到她沐浴在阳光里,这是视觉在起作用;听见她的声音传遍各个角落,这是听觉在起作用;他要跑过去温柔地拥抱她,这是触觉在享受。但这只是男主人公的幻觉,不过也是伟大爱情的表现。------------这是赏析。
此曲是奥斯卡金像奖《蝴蝶梦》的主题曲,浪漫中却充满忧伤。
Though we gotta say good bye虽然我们不得不
For the summer分开度夏
Darlin,I promise you this亲爱的,我答应你
I'll send you all my love我要把爱送给你
Every day in a letter每天装在信封里
Sealed with a kiss以吻来封缄
Yes,it's gonna be是的,今夏会是
A cold lonely summer寒冷又孤独
But I'll fill the emptiness但我要填补空虚
I'll send you all my dreams送给你我所有的梦境
Seald with a kiss以吻来封缄
I'll see you in the sunlight我将看见你在阳光里
I'll hear your voice everywhere我将听见你声音遍野
I'll run to tenderly hold you我要跑过去温柔地拥抱你
But darlin, you won't be there但亲爱的你却不在
I don't wanna say good bye我不想说再见
For the summer分开度夏
Knowing the love we'll miss知道我们会相思
So, let us make a pledge所以,我们立个誓
To meet in September,九月再相见
And sealed with a kiss以吻来封缄
Yes,it's gonna be是的,今夏会是
A cold lonely summer寒冷又孤独
But I'll fill the emptiness但我要填补空虚
I'll send you all my love送给你我所有的爱
Every day in a letter每天装在信封里
Sealed with a kiss以吻来封缄
Sealed with a kiss以吻来封缄
Sealed with a kiss……以吻来封缄……
第三首:the one you love
演唱者:Glenn Frey
Glenn Frey曾是70年代美国最伟大的乐队Eagles(老鹰乐队)的核心成员及主唱之一。1979年乐队解散之后,Glenn Frey开始单独发展,1982年发表的首张个人专辑《No Fun Aloud》产生了多首排行榜前40位的单曲,其中就包括被张国荣翻唱为《梦里蓝天》的这首被公认为不朽的经典英文情歌的《The One You Love》。
一听见悠扬的萨克斯前奏已经可以让人卸下防备,纵情于音乐的海洋中。如果你的冰箱里有一些酒,有些可口的食物就更好了。下班后,如果有爱人就和她一起听着这首歌,制造些甜蜜的回忆。如果单身可以独自小饮,也会回忆起一些美好的事。
喜爱看电影的人会觉得这首歌很熟悉电影《时光倒流七十年》《生于七月四日》中都可以听见此曲,也会让你想起电影一些感人的场景。

第四首:It Never Rains In Southern California【加州南部不下雨】
演唱者:Albert Hammond
英国歌手,成名很早。组建过乐队,后来解散。这首加州南部不下雨一发行就挤上美国排行榜前五。此后为众多歌手写过歌,他的歌最火的因该就是这首了。
如果有一首歌听了能让你立刻就想背上背包去旅行,那么就是这首。因为这首歌,我不止一次的幻想了加州的海滩、风景、湿润的风。比国家政府宣传部旅游景点还给力。
关于加州有很多歌,《加州旅馆》《加州之梦》,这个地方让人越来越想知道究竟什么地方让这么多歌手一唱再唱。
