Electric Light Orchestra



去年看了《A Hologram for the King》( 梭哈人生),IMDb評價一般,但我覺得還不錯。電影中有一幕,司機在發動車子後(確認車子沒被裝炸彈),轉過頭問 Tom Hanks:
 
「Hey! Like Electric Light Orchestra?」
 
「Yeah!」
 
車上的音響播放著...
 
The city streets are empty now
(The lights don't shine no more)
And so the songs are way down low
A sound that flows into my mind
(The echoes of the daylight)
Of everything that is alive
(In my blue world)
I turn to stone when you are gone
I turn to stone
I turn to stone, when you comin' home
I can't go on
 
聽到時就覺得驚艷!查了一下,是Electric Light Orchestra電光合唱團(ELO)的〈Turn To Stone〉,接下來的好幾天就一直聽著《Out of the Blue》這張專輯,然後又聽了《Discovery》,都是非常棒的專輯!若是喜歡The Beach Boys的人應該也會喜歡,只是ELO多了一點科幻味,還有一點弦樂。後來又覺得這個爆炸頭主唱Jeff Lynne實在有點眼熟,才發現他是Traveling Wilburys的一員。
 
Traveling Wilburys是由Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty和Jeff Lynne所組成的樂團。
 
《Discovery》這張專輯裡面,我最喜歡的一首是〈Need Her Love〉,也是我個人心中2016年的年度歌曲。不管什麼時候聽,都有一種被抽離出現實的感覺。
 
 
She gives me love that I could never hope to have,
She tells me that she needs me,
She tells me that she's glad,
And if she goes away,
I'm like someone who's left out in the rain,
I need, I need her, I need her love.
 
She came in from the west,
A summer breeze I couldn't rest,
I had to take a fast train, to be there by her side,
She made me feel so good,
She made it like it should be all the time
I need, I need her, I need her love.
 
Just when I was thinkin' of her,
She came along and made me
want her. I need her love, I need her love, I need her love.
If she goes away,
I'm like someone who's left out in the rain,
I need, I need her, I need her love.
 
The boats that sail, the planes that fly, she is with me.
I wonder if she wonders, if this is all for real,
I couldn't stand to see her cry because of me,
That would be sad.
I need, I need her, I need her love.
 
She tells me everything,
She makes me smile, she tries to sing,
But never shares her suffering,
If things are going wrong,
She makes it like a dream,
If things are as they seem the world is good.
I need her, I need her love, I need her love.
