老歌亂談(234)New Kid In Town

長江後浪推前浪。這首歌的場景有點像美國西部拓荒時期,在某個小鎮上有位受到大家崇敬的槍手Johnny,當然,漂亮的女人也喜歡他。然後,有那麼一天,鎮上來了個新面孔的年輕小伙子,除了外型帥氣,槍法也非常的了得,大家急著通知 Johnny來會會他。不過, Johnny之前的名聲和所擁有的一切,很可能就此會被年輕小伙子取代。其實歌曲所想表達的,就是對一般所謂浪漫的愛情,以及隱含著對自己樂團未來的事業發展,認為會不斷地出現新的競爭者而所發出的憂患之聲。

這首歌是由Eagles的鼓手Don Henley、主唱Glenn Frey以及J.D. Souther ( 非Eagles成員 ) 三人所合寫。Don Henley和Glenn Frey曾是Linda Ronstadt作巡迴演唱時的專屬樂團成員,而J.D. Souther則曾和Linda Ronstadt交往,三人自是有相當的關係和交情。之前介紹過Eagles的《How Long》,即是J.D. Souther所作。

這首《New Kid In Town》於1977年2月成為告示牌排行榜的冠軍歌曲,也為Eagles贏得了一座「最佳和聲」的葛萊美獎。

 



Linda Ronstadt & J.D. Souther


 

There's talk on the street
It sounds so familiar
Great expectations
Everybody's watching you

People you meet
They all seem to know you
Even your old friends
Treat you like you're something new

Johnny come lately
The new kid in town
Everybody loves you
So don't let them down

You look in her eyes
The music begins to play
Hopeless romantics
Here we go again

But after a while
You're looking the other way
It's those restless hearts
That never mend

Oh, oh

Johnny come lately
The new kid in town
Will she still love you
When you're not around?

(Solo)

There's so many things
You should have told her

But night after night
You're willing to hold her
Just hold her
Tears on your shoulder

There's talk on the street
It's there to remind you
Doesn't really matter
Which side you're on

You're walking away
And they're talking behind you
They will never forget you
Til somebody new comes along

Where you been lately?
There's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him, don't they?

And he's holding her
And you're still around
Oh my my.

There's a new kid in town

Just another new kid in town

Oo-hoo
Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town
Oo-hoo
Everybody's walking like the new kid in town

There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it, ah, oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town
Everybody's talking
There's a new kid in town
People started walking

There's a new kid in town, mmm hmm hmm
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town...

經妳一說,我的額頭開始冒汗了。

有件事妳要先弄清楚,我只是年輕時喜歡聽聽西洋音樂,連是「業餘的」都稱不上,所以才會取名為「亂談」。所介紹的一些內容未必真確,隨便看看就好。哈哈哈!
