03 Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
1985年主唱兼吉他手John Rzeznik与玩重金属乐的表哥Robby Takac找来前鼓手George Tutuska,于美国纽约州水牛城组成了三人摇滚团体Goo Goo Dolls。乐队在发行前五张专辑的过程中,虽然赢得了一些好评和人气,但并未树立自己的音乐个性,因此也未能从众多的另类摇滚乐队中脱颖而出,大红大紫。 但是老天似乎特别偏爱他们,幸逢电影《City Of Angels》邀请他们为其原声带写作歌曲,John Rzeznik所谱写演唱的《Iris》(希腊文,虹彩)一曲,不仅为他们赢得1999年第41届葛莱美音乐奖年度唱片最佳流行演唱团体年度歌曲等三项大奖提名,将Goo Goo Dolls的乐坛声望与作品销售数字提携至顶端外,《Iris》一曲的制作人Rob Cavallo更以此获得年度最佳制作大奖。Goo Goo Dolls这才开始在乐坛树立了自己的地位,也找到了适合自己的POP ROCK〔流行摇滚〕风格。 《Iris》堪称流行摇滚音乐作品中十年一遇的好音乐,音乐起始清脆急促的吉他SOLO,John Rzeznik饱含沧桑的低沉嗓音对世事对爱情满腹的疑问,而曲至中段突然的高昂爆发似乎疑问已经转为了真挚的誓言,“即便万物毁灭,我也只要你知道我是谁!”旋律的优美和主唱声线的粗犷形成了鲜明对比,而正因如此,此首音乐脱离了甜腻情歌的范畴,成了百听不厌的超级经典。
歌曲歌词:
And I′d give up forever to touch you
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow
You′re the closest to heaven that I′ll ever be
And I don′t want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cuz sooner or later it′s over
I just don′t want to miss you tonight
And I don′t want the world to see me
Cuz I don′t think that they′d understand
When everything′s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can′t fight the tears that ain′t coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you′d bleed just to know you′re alive
And I don′t want the world to see me
Cuz I don′t think that they′d understand
When everything′s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don′t want the world to see me
Cuz I don′t think that they′d understand
When everything′s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don′t want the world to see me
Cuz I don′t think that they′d understand
When everything′s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
天使之城
我愿永远放弃接近你
我知道你能感受到我的存在
你高在天堂而我将去地狱
我不想现在回家
此时我愿意体味
我能呼吸的是你的生命
迟早将会过去
只是今晚我不想再失去你
我不想让整个世界看到我
我想他们不理解我
当一切都将逝去
我只想让你知道我是谁
谎话被揭穿时
不必抗争,不起易落泪的你
当一切都如电影般
你用鲜血证明你的存在
我不想让整个世界看到我
我想他们不理解我
当一切都将逝去
我只想让你知道我是谁
我只想让你知道我是谁
我只想让你知道我是谁
我只想让你知道我是谁
