老歌亂談(690)Stay

推薦 1 收藏 0 轉貼0 訂閱站台



此曲為美國黑人歌手Maurice Williams所寫,並和他的合唱團體The Zodiacs於1960首錄發行,竟然衝上了告示牌熱門榜的冠軍 ( 一週後被貓王的《Are You Lonesome Tonight》給擠下 ),另也創下了排行榜最短冠軍歌曲的記錄 ( 僅1分36秒 )。還好Maurice Williams在1957有另首寫給The Diamonds的冠軍曲《Little Darling》( 亂談519 ),否則也可稱得上是「一曲歌王」了。

據Maurice Williams自述此曲的創作靈感是在他15歲時,因女友急著要趕在晚上10點前返家,想說服女友多留下一會兒,而最後還是未能成功。此曲之後較知名的翻唱者有:The Hollies (1963 UK #8 )、The Dave Clark Five ( 1964 )、The Four Seasons (1964 #16 )。

1977,美國歌手Jackson Browne也翻唱此曲,通常是緊接著另首《The Load-Out》一起演唱。不過,他將歌詞作了些修改,變成是請求觀眾多留一會兒,說得直白一些,感覺就是要向觀眾討「安可」。歌曲中的假音及合音部份為David  Lindley及Rosemary Butler,此版本分獲美、英排行榜的第20和第12名。

Stay ( Maurice Williams & The Zodiacs )
Stay, ahhh
Just a little bit longer
Please, please, please, please, please
Tell me that you're going to
Now your daddy don't mind
And your Mommy don't mind
If we have another dance, ya
Just one more time
Oh, won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please let me hear you say
That you will
Won't you place your
Sweet lips to mine
Won't you say you love me
All the time
Oh ya, just a little bit longer
Please, please, please, please, please
Tell me your going to
Come on, come on, come on, stay
Come on, come on, come on, stay, oh la de da
Come on, come on, come on, stay, my, my, my, my
Come on, come on, come on , stay

Stay ( Jackson Browne )
People stay just a little bit longer
We want to play, just a little bit longer
Now the promoter don't mind
And the union don't mind
If we take a little time
And we leave it all behind and sing
One more song
Oh won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please please please, say you will
Say you will
Oh won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Oh please please please stay
Just a little bit more
