很久没写东西了
巧合的4.99元
天堂囚犯
代表了一种回忆
国中吧
回复到学生身分的我
最近对於过往的一切
总是会不断地去追寻
想把似乎失去的那一部分
悄悄找回来
1991年
转眼间也过十三年了
推算起来应该是我国中的时候吧
买了这一张天堂囚犯
那时的我
正开始对吵杂的重金属音乐产生兴趣
终日所聆听的
不外乎Guns and Roses, Def Leppard,Skid Row之流
沉醉在Axl Rose的狂吼
有着独臂鼓手的威豹之中
Skid Row的I Remember You
当然
也少不了Europe的Final Countdown, Carrie
那时的欧洲正处於高峰
可惜似乎也消逝的特别快
在最後倒数发行的隔没几年
就看到了主唱单飞的专辑
十年的成团时间
就这样解散了
高中时期
英式摇滚兴起
整个人投进去另外一个世界中
也开始将一些听来觉得吵杂不堪的专辑卖掉
其中一张
就是现在想写的天堂囚犯
也是欧洲合唱团的最後一张专辑
永远无法忘怀听到Priosoners In Paradise这首同名单曲时的感受
这是一首令人动容的歌曲
不论是歌词亦或是乐手的表现
都证明了欧洲合唱团是伟大的乐队
听音乐也好几年了
我们所注重的是什麽
旋律
节奏
歌词
歌声
最重要的是感动
一首动容的歌曲
可以在你的音响中播放一整天也不会溺
曾经
我不断地追寻
希望可以藉由大量的聆听来得到感动
但是
现在的我
却发现
在追寻与迷失的过程当中
只有那自己所忽略掉的
才是最真实的
走进一家新开的黑人唱片行
看着这张天堂囚犯被摆在特价区中
与一堆廉价的古典盘及Comedy Music放在一起
我把它重新买了回来
重新去体验国小国中时期踏进音乐世界中的感觉
最近欣闻欧洲乐队重组
我不会期待什麽
因为
这过往的片段
对我而言
是最真诚的......
I want to learn how to fly
I want to be respected
I want to get lucky
I want to get out of this dump
I just want to watch tv
I want to be loved
I want to be different
I want a brother and a sister
I'd just rather be forgotten
I want to save the world
I want to be understood
I want to be rich man
I just want to be somebody
Julie’s got the word today she lost her job just one last pay
Life don’t come easy anymore
Still strugglin’ on by herself got a picture of jimmy there on the shelf
And she looks at him and says why did we let it go
I know that sometimes baby we didn’t see things eye-to-eye
But I got just one question did we have to say goodbye?
Just like prisioners in paradise
Still far from heaven’s door
We had it all but still we wanted more
Now I realize that I can’t turn back the future here to stay
But hey we’re just children of tomorrow
Hangin’ on to yesterday
Jimmy still recalls the night when he took his guitar and headed on out
To find the big time that was his dream
He gave up his past and made it alright
But there’s something missin’ in his heart tonight
Sometimes what you want ain’t what you need
He misses drivin’ down to the lake at night
Holdin’ his baby in his arms so tight
Ain’ t it hard to find illusions when you’re livin’ in a memory
Just like prisioners in paradise
So close but yet so far
There will come a time no matter who you are
When you ask yourself was it right or wrong
For me to turn away,
But hey we’re just children of tomorrow hangin’ on to yesterday
