(嘗試過找Bee Gees的帖, 找不到, 所以開新帖, 如果睇溜眼, 麻煩版主將本帖與Bee Gees的帖合併吧!

近日亞視深夜重播世紀之戰, 戲中不斷播出Bee Gees的一個首歌, 令我又想起這隊樂隊來! Bee Gees於上世紀七八十年代, 是英美流行樂壇的班霸! 他們本來出生於英國, 小孩時隨父母移居澳洲, 在澳洲發跡, 後又遷居美國, 將自身的事業推上頂峰! 樂隊主要由Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb 及 Maurice Gibb 組成. Barry是大哥, Maurice and Barry是孖生的二弟及三弟, 他們本來重有一個小弟Andy, 可惜因為灆藥, 早於80年代初已逝世. 自80年代中期disco熱潮過後, Bee Gees的歌唱事業曾陷入低潮, Barry 與 Robin亦因工作上的磨擦漸生芥蒂, 只因Maurice居中調停, 樂隊才渡過遭到解散的命運, 但Barry 與 Robin其後還是嘗試作獨立的發展, 可惜二人都不成功, 只出了些叫好不叫座的作品, 最後痛定思痛, 再以Bee Gees名義出碟, 終以ESP一碟恢復聲勢, 可惜Maurice因為腸打結問題, 於數年前已離世, Bee Gees亦從此永成絶響, 無法重組了!
下面選來數首我喜歡的歌曲同大家分享!
Words
How Deep is Your Love
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And it's me you need to show
Chorus:
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
Youre the light in my deepest darkest hour
Youre my saviour when I fall
And you may not think
I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And it's me you need to show
First of May
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall,
We used to love while others used to play.
Dont ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Some one else moved in from far away.
Now we are tall, and christmas trees are small,
And you dont ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
But guess well cry come first of may.
The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.
Now we are tall, and christmas trees are small,
And you dont ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
But guess well cry come first of may.
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall,
Do do do do do do do do do...
Dont ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Some one else moved in from far away.
Massachusetts
這首是Robin Gibb當年為太太所寫的一首歌, 話說有一次他與未婚妻(即後來的太太)分別往外地演出時, 突然心血來潮, 心恐未婚妻發生事故, 演出後趕回看望, 發覺她平安後就作了這首歌記念當日情景.
Feel I'm goin' back to Massachusetts,
Something's telling me I must go home.
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own.
Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco,
Gotta do the things I wanna do.
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you.
Talk about the life in Massachusetts,
Speak about the people I have seen,
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
And Massachusetts is one place I have seen.
I will remember Massachusetts...
Staying Alive
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
since I was born.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Times' effect on man.
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.
Well now, I get low and I get high,
and if I can't get either, I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes.
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose.
You know it's all right. It's OK.
I'll live to see another day.
We can try to understand
the New York Times' effect on man.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah. Stayin' alive.
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm,
I've been kicked around since I was born.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Times' effect on man.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me, yeah.
I'm stayin' alive.
