"自動播放:You Can't Hurry Love"











I need love, love
Ooh, ease my mind
And I need to find time
Someone to call mine;

My mama said
You can't hurry love
No, youll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes

How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, ooh, it's almost gone

I remember mama said
You can't hurry love
No you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take
How long must I wait
How muck more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break

No, I can't bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that i, I can't go on
Well these precious words keep me hanging on

I remember mama said
You can't hurry love
No, youll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy
Well, it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes, now break!

Now love, love don't come easy
But I keep on waiting
Anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night
For some tender arms
Hold me tight
I keep waiting
Ooh, till that day
But it ain't easy (love don't come easy)
No, you know it aint easy

My mama said
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take...


創作若是多了一些不同的元素

所碰撞出來的火花也許會更有意思

就Phil Collins而言

一個終日與鼓為伍的搖滾歌手

加上一些60年代Motown色彩

又會有著什麼樣大放異彩的作品呈現??

在1982年的單飛第二張專輯"Hello,I Must Be Going"中

Phil一償夙願地翻唱了他最熱愛的Motown時期的作品

1966年由Supremes唱紅的冠軍單曲"You Can't Hurry Love"

節奏輕快詞意淺顯

洋溢著熱情的少年情懷

結合了Phil精湛的鼓技與搖滾元素進來

讓這首歌彷彿重獲新生

打入排行榜的Top10佳績

這樣成功的結合

讓Phil更希望進一步地創作屬於自己的類Motown風格的作品



有時命運巧合地令人不得不懷疑

這是天衣無縫的的預謀嗎

後來的一次因緣際會中

Phil與60年代Motown唱片的當家創作人Lamont Dozier結識

如同看見崇拜的偶像一樣興奮的Phil高興地擁抱住Dozier

就像周星馳在電影裡頭常說的那句話一樣:"對你的景仰猶如江水一般滔滔不絕!!!"

但是真正的合作是在1988年的事了



1986年Phil在當紅的電視影集"邁阿密風雲(Miami Vice)"客串一角

原本因童年時演出電影所有的片段都被剪光的不愉快往事

都被這一次的客串機會一掃而空

而且還為此劇唱了一首插曲(印象中有看過.....至於細節.....早已忘了!!!)

食髓知味的他又接了另一部電影"火車大盜(Buster)"

劇中的時代背景是60年代

正是Phil最愛的Motown年代

所以Phil毫不猶豫地接下這部片的拍攝

並找來Lamont Dozier共同合作

寫出那個年代特有風格的作品

除了翻唱"The Groovy Kind Of Love"這首老歌之外

也創作了另外兩首新作"Two Hearts"與"Big Noise"

值得一提的是Lamont Dozier為了重溫那種老式風格的曲式

翻箱倒篋地找出自己當年的作品來找回靈感

而這首"Two Hearts"就是Lamont Dozier以Phil唱"You Can't Hurry Love"量身訂做的歌曲

令Phil十分滿意

而這首歌也不負眾望地在1989年1月奪得Billboard的冠軍



"手動播放:Two Hearts"











Well, there was no reason to believe she'd always be there
But if you dont put faith in what you believe in
It's getting you nowhere
Cos it hurts, you never let go
Dont look down, just look up
Cos she's always there to behind you, just to remind you

Two hearts, believing in just one mind
You know were two hearts believing in just one mind

Cos there's no easy way to, to understand it
There's so much of my life in her, and it's like I'm blinded
And it teaches you to never let go
There's so much love you'll never know
She can reach you no matter how far
Wherever you are

Two hearts, believing in just one mind
Beating together till the end of time
You know were two hearts believing in just one mind
Together forever till the end of time

She knows (she knows)
There'll always be a special place in my heart for her
She knows, she knows, she knows
Yeah, she knows (she knows)
No matter how far apart we are
She knows, I'm always right there beside her

Were two hearts... believing in just one mind
Beating together till the end of time
You know were two hearts believing in just one mind
Together forever till the end of time


"手動播放:Big Noise"











Just set your sight high, look
'em right in the eye and take it
And make a big big big noise.
Don`t ask why
Just take it wise and making it
Make that a big big big big noise.

You can feel it in the air
Feel it everywhere
There`s a spirit moving
At just look, it`s all around you
Just take a look around you people stars ??? to loose it
Cos if you wanted you gotta go get it
Just to listen up
if there`s something that you need
You better believe


Better make your play
Don`t let her thing like right or wrong, get it
Cos there`s nothing to it if you just if you reach out and do it, it`ll be ok
Just catch yourself a piece of the action
Just to listen up
if there`s something that you need
You better believe


Cos if you wanted you gotta go get it
Just to listen up
if there`s something that you need
You better believe

Phil Collns是我的超級偶像耶, 我幾乎收集了他的所有專輯跟單曲, 一直都還不敢寫他, 還是被你寫了. 不過話說回來, 他翻唱的功力跟創作都很讚啦.

哈哈

黑膠

原來是我不知天高地厚

把你的偶像給寫了

我很喜歡Phil Collins在80年代的作品

尤其是1984-1988年這段期間

簡直就是他的高峰時期

不過想跟你請教的是easy lover那一首單曲是收錄在哪一張專輯呢
Posted by Mr.Melody at November 13,2008 22:07

這首收在Phil幫Philip Bailey幫他製作的《Chinese Wall》專輯裡, 後來Phil的精選也有收錄哦.
