Don McLean - American Pie (III)
週休二日後我們再談談American Pie。
廣告: 進入正題前讓我先謝謝你/妳。我的新聞台第一次有這麼多觀眾呢!
好，背景也說得差不多了。今天我們繼續談分析一下歌詞的內容。
...Bye, bye Miss American Pie
(再見，美國最好的時光)
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And them good ol' boys were drinking whiskey in Rye
(Them good ol' boys 所指的是Buddy Holly, Richie Valens 和 Chantilly Lace)
Singing this will be the day that I die,
This will be the day that I die...
("This will be the day"除了是西部片英雄尊榮的口頭禪，亦是令Buddy Holly走紅的其中一首榜首歌歌名)
"Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry"
"Chevy"是 Chevrolet雪佛蘭車的俗稱；擁有一架Chevy對美國五十年代的青年而言亦等同於成年及自由的象徵。這段歌詞明顯是向雪佛蘭於五十年代的電視廣告致敬。
Chevrolet當年曾邀請Dinah Shore唱過以下的電視廣告jingle:
See the USA in your Chevrolet.
America is asking you to call!
Drive your Chevrolet through the USA.
America's the greatest land of all.
On a highway or a road on the levee, performance is sweeter, nothing can beat her.
Life is completer in a Chevy!
So make a date today to see the USA, and see it in your Chevrolet!
Traveling east, traveling west, wherever you go, Chevy service is best!Southward or north, near place or far, there's a Chrevrolet dealer for your Chevrolet car.
So make a date today to see the USA, and see it in your Chevrolet!
想聽聽嗎？
