Anders Nelsson 聶安達 (1946- ) ﹐雙親是瑞典人﹐生於美國加州﹐但在香港受教育。1961年 Anders 組成的 Kontinentals樂團﹐成員便有電台DJ Mike Souza (Organ)﹑Danny Piry (結他)﹑Roy Davenport (結他)﹑Dave Christian (主音) 及 Sidney Fattedad (鼓) 。他們在 1963年簽約 Orbit唱片﹐出版過兩張單曲 I Still Love You及 I Think Of Her都甚受歡迎。

1965年 Anders為保留瑞典藉﹐不得不回瑞典當兵﹐於是惟有解散Kontinentals﹐並且在大會堂舉行告別演唱會。回國後﹐他也曾另外組成 Kontienentals 在Anette 唱片旗下推出單曲 I Still Love You / Listen To My Plea。3年後Anders 返港﹐組成了 The Andres Nelson Group (這時Nelsson 改為 Nelson 了)﹐在鑽石旗下推於單曲 A Million To One﹑Out Of Sight Out Of Mind 等﹐可是由於成員海外求學的關係﹐於是 Anders 又組成了 Anders Nelson & The Inspiration。

Anders Nelson & The Inspiration成員包括 Anders Nelson (主音/結他)﹑Evan Choi (貝斯)﹑Norman Leung (Organ/結他/鋼琴) 及 John Barry (合聲/Percussion) ﹐另外首屆香港小姐 (1973) 孫詠恩的前夫陳家蓀也曾加入過 Inspiration作琴鍵及結他手。他們推出的幾張單曲都很不俗﹐專輯 Inspiration (年份不詳/Diamond) 也重唱了一些 Kontinentals及 Anders Nelson Group時期的歌曲。

踏入70年代﹐Anders Nelson又組成 Ming樂團﹐在EMI旗下發片。80年代組成了 Melody Bank製作公司﹐港姐吳夏萍的唯一一張專輯“尖東海傍”(1985/Tony)﹐便有他的份兒參與製作﹐後期他更主管香港 BMG。

至於Kontinentals 成員 Mike Souza (1946- ) ﹐原名 Mike De Souza﹐生於香港﹐他擁有西班牙及幕萄牙血統﹐就讀於喇沙書院。1966年加入了商業電台任職 DJ﹐其後在鑽石旗下也出版了單曲 It’s Getting Better / Galveston。80年代常見他亮相 TVB Pearl 明珠台擔任主播﹐後來又轉到英國擔任DJ。


I Still Love You
(Anders Nelson)

I still love you like before
When my lights are long
And I’m haunted by the blues
I will think of you
And recall the love we knew
I never thought it could go wrong
And I’d have to pay
I’ll remember the things you said today
I don’t want you
I don’t need you
I don’t love you anymore

When I walk alone
And my friend all say hello
I will try to smile
And pray my tears won’t show
But then at night when our special song rings through my head
I’ll remember the little things you said
I don’t want you
I don’t need you
I don’t love you anymore

I never thought it could go wrong
And I’d have to pay
I’ll remember the things you said today
I don’t want you
I don’t need you
I don’t love you anymore
But I still want you
And I still need you
And I still love you like before

Out Of Sight Out Of Mind
(Anders Nelson)

When you’re out of sight
I go out of my mind
When you’re out of sight
No Peace I find
I just toss and turn
While my lovelight burns
I go out of my mind

When you walk out of my door
Well you hurt me so
When you walk out of my door
I cry please don’t go
Baby when you’re gone
You know I can’t go on
I go out of my mind

Baby when you’re in my arms
I’m as happy as a newborn child
But if I lose your charms
It would drive me wild

When you’re out of sight
I go out of my mind
When you’re out of sight
No Peace I find
I just toss and turn
While my lovelight burns
I go out of my mind

Baby when you’re in my arms
I’m as happy as a newborn child
But if I lose your charms
It would drive me wild

When you’re out of sight
I go out of my mind
When you’re out of sight
No Peace I find
I just toss and turn
While my lovelight burns
I go out of my mind
I go out of my mind
I go out of my mind
