[60年代经典] Aphrodite's Child - Rain & Tears





RAIN AND TEARS

Rain and tears are the same,
but in the sun
you've got to play the game.

When you cry in winter time,
you can pretend
it's nothing but the rain.

How many times I've seen
tears coming from your blue eyes.

Rain and tears are the same,
but in the sun
you've got to play the game.

Give me an answer of love,
I need an answer of love.

Rain and tears in the sun
but in your heart
you feel the rainbow waves.

Rain and tears both I shun,
for in my heart
there'll never be a sun.

Rain and tears are the same,
but in the sun
you've got to play the game.

Aphrodite's Child was a Greek progressive rock band formed in 1967, by Vangelis Papathanassiou (keyboards), Demis Roussos (bass guitar and vocals), Loukas Sideras (drums and vocals), and Anargyros "Silver" Koulouris (guitar). Papathanassiou and Roussos had already been successful in Greece (playing in the bands Formynx and Idols respectively) while they got together with Sideras and Koulouris to form a new band. Their first recording as a band was for George Romanos album In concert and in Studio where they played on four songs and were credited as "Vangelis and his orchestra". In the same year they recorded a two song demo and submitted it to Philips Records.
