额八十年代时极爱老费和安妮兰尼斯,
那时的老费头已初显秃象但头顶正中还有些毛毛。他唱的有点摇滚但比较抒情,
声音哑哑磁磁但不声嘶力竭,听起来令当年的阿小豆魂飞天外.
老费早年出道时乐队的名字叫创世纪 (GENESIS), 后来就单飞了
可二十年过去了他已全部童山濯濯 , 噢童山濯濯就是秃的厉害的意
思,额只知用法,不知典故,大约是以一座叫童山的光光的山顶来比喻男人的秃头,
濯濯很可能是闪亮发光的意思。
噢说那了,喜欢安妮是因为她可真酷,声音也与众不同,她唱法和一般女歌手不大
一样,歌吗有点参透了人世的味道,可还带点热切和希望,那一点点热乎劲也被她
酷酷地掩饰了一下,只有额这种饱经风霜的妖精才能体会的出。
老费早年头不秃时,额看他还算顺眼。现在他年老色衰,额绝对移情别恋没二话说。
再听他的歌, 大部分也好象有点CHEESY,除掉少数几首。
额现在喜欢年轻歌手,看着他们蹦蹦跳跳乱喊乱叫地ROCK'N'ROLL,心中是一片欢快呀。
没事,反正老费也不在乎这些。
安妮还是喜欢,她上次唱指环王看到一次,听说最近又要出新碟了。
嗯,当歌手真划算,出一个碟子卖个10 million张,一世就衣食无忧了

天堂里的另一天
歌中描写了一个流离失所、无处过夜的女子向过路人求救却遭拒绝的一幕,是一首具有很强现实主义的歌曲。歌中唱到:
“你能看到她脸上的皱纹,
你可以想像她在那里已很久,
或许她曾被迫四处漂流,
因为她找不到安身之所。”
老费说:相比之下,我们就像生活在天堂一样,而帮助这些可怜的人,只是我们应该做,而且也能够做到的事情。
天堂里的另一天(Another Day in Paradise)歌词
She calls out to the man on the street,
“Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?”
He walks on, doesn't look back,
He pretends he can't hear her,
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street,
Seems embarrassed to be there.
Oh, think twice,
It's another day for you and me in paradise.
Oh, think twice,
It's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise,
Just think about it.
She calls out to the man on the street,
He can see she's been crying,
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet,
She can't walk, but she's trying.
Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do,
Oh lord, there must be something you can say.
You can tell from the lines on her face,
You can see that she's been there.
Probably been moved on from every place,
Because she didn't fit in there.
Oh, think twice,
It's another day for you and me in paradise.
Oh, think twice,
It's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise,
Just think about it.

======================================================== /> Whiter Shade of Pale We skipped the light fandango turned cartwheels 'cross the floor I was feeling kinda seasick but the crowd called out for more The room was humming harder as the ceiling flew away When we called out for another drink the waiter brought a tray And so it was that later as the miller told his tale that her face, at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale She said, 'There is no reason and the truth is plain to see.' But I wandered through my playing cards and would not let her be one of sixteen vestal virgins who were leaving for the coast and although my eyes were open they might have just as well've been closed She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,' though in truth we were at sea so I took her by the looking glass and forced her to agree saying, 'You must be the mermaid who took Neptune for a ride.' But she smiled at me so sadly that my anger straightway died If music be the food of love [see note, left, about this verse + its opening] then laughter is its queen and likewise if behind is in front then dirt in truth is clean My mouth by then like cardboard seemed to slip straight through my head So we crash-dived straightway quickly and attacked the ocean bed /> | |
