老歌亂談(592)I've Been Loving You Too Long

推薦 2 收藏 0 轉貼0 訂閱站台



此曲為美國黑人歌手Otis Redding與Jerry Butler共同合寫,並於1965以單曲的A面發行。雖然Otis Redding從1962年起,陸續有歌曲入榜,但此曲為他歷來入榜成績最佳的歌曲 ( Billboard Hot 100 / # 21,R & B Chart / # 2 )。此曲也在滾石雜誌的「The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time」中排名第110。

歌唱事業正在起飛發燙之時,邀約作秀自是接連不斷。1967,不顧天候不佳仍執意趕場,飛機墜毀在離目的地機場僅4公里處,一位前途耀眼的巨星歌手就此殞落,只享年26歲。

翻唱此曲的歌手眾多,基本上還是以黑人歌手像是Etta James、Ike and Tina Turner等較能唱出此曲的韻味。而以《Single Girl》成名的女歌手Sandy Posey,於1967亦翻唱此曲,雖然曲風較為抒情,而以其特有柔弱哀怨的嗓音來作詮釋,聽來也頗讓人動容。







I've been loving you too long to stop now

You were tired and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger, as you become a habit to me
Oh I've been loving you a little too long
I don't want to stop now, oh
With you my life
Has been so wonderful
I can't stop now

You were tired and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger as our affair affair grows old
I've been loving you a little too long, long
To stop now
Oh, oh, oh
I've been loving you a little bit too long
I don't want to stop now no, no, no

Don't make me stop now, no baby
I'm down on my knees please, don't make me stop now
I love you, I love you
I love you with all of my heart
And I can't stop now
Please, please don't make me stop now
