美国乡村音乐经典回顾:Kenny Rodgers&Dolly Parton《Islands in the stream》
本期介绍的是我一直以来都非常喜欢的两位歌坛老将:Kenny Rodgers and Dolly Parton 。两位都是享誉歌坛几十年不倒的常青树。
提起Dolly,很多人第一个想到的,就是她那夸张得几乎不成比例的硕大胸脯。尽管这成为了别人的笑柄,但她却一点都不在乎,自己反而经常说:“我很能消遣我自己!”生活的精彩,她的歌声同样不逊色,更令人敬佩的是她填词谱曲以及弹奏弦乐器的功力!在一向是男性天下乡村歌坛的,如果要谈到创作的才华,却没有几位歌手是能够和Dolly Parton(桃丽.派顿)相提并论的。她不但曾经谱写出无数动人的经典曲目,本身更拥有一百多首打进乡村单曲排行榜的畅销曲,让绝大多数男性的艺人都望尘莫及。
肯尼.罗杰斯(Kenny Rogers)1938年8月21日出生于得克萨斯州的休斯顿。他的嗓音浑厚,表情洒脱,爱唱节奏轻快自由、略带叙述性的歌曲,有时还将乡村音乐和城市温和摇滚融合在一起。1976年,罗杰斯从偏向”嬉皮式”的风格走向平稳的乡村音乐道路,成为一名乡村音乐的改良者。他将大量的流行音乐元素融入乡村音乐之中,使两者得到完美的结合。
两人在这首联袂演唱的Islands in the stream中挥洒自如,桃丽的歌喉嘹亮却又蕴含着温情,肯尼.罗杰斯深情款款,整首歌曲节奏欢快、流畅,富有很强的感染力。

Islands in the stream

Baby when I met you there was peace unknown
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb
I was soft inside
There was something going on
You do something to me that I can’t explain
Hold me closer and I feel no pain
Every beat of my heart
We got something going on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel needs no conversation
We can ride it together , ah ha
Making love with each other , ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other , ah ha
From one lover to another , ah ha
I can’t live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothing when you got no one
And you walk in the night
Slowly losing sight of the real thing
But that won’t happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the message is clear
This could be the year for the real thing
No more will you cry
Baby I will hurt you never
We start and end as one
In love forever
We can ride it together , ah ha
Making love with each other , ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other , ah ha
From one lover to another , ah ha
say the way , you can say the way with me



呵呵,我喜欢
