給吸血鬼的情歌

「給吸血鬼的情歌」?

吸血鬼,
怎麼會需要情歌?
吸血鬼,
會有愛情?
吸血鬼,
不是邪惡?可怕的?
而浪漫的情歌,
又怎麼會和吸血鬼扯上關係?

可是,
當崇拜上帝的「德古拉」公爵,
遵從上帝的旨意,
去參與了所謂的「聖戰」,
換來的卻是愛人,「米娜」的自殺。
這教德古拉公爵,情何以堪!
於是,
德古拉公爵,發下毒誓:生生世世,永以血維生。
而化成了黑暗中才出現,只為了找尋愛人「米娜」的癡情「吸血鬼」-德古拉公爵。

Annie Lennox,
為了這部,「法蘭西斯.科波拉」大導演92年鉅作「吸血鬼」,
而特地譜寫的主題歌:Love Song For A Vampire(給吸血鬼的情歌)。
是我認識Annie Lennox的開始,
那空靈,充滿了無奈的淒哀的美麗情歌,
竟是為了因愛犧牲,做了傻事的「德古拉公爵」而作,
不免教人為德古拉公爵,唏噓與惋惜。

宛如「米娜」最後無奈地對著「德古拉公爵」訴說著:
「我的愛人,再度回到我的懷中,
願我們生生世世的愛,能讓你不安的靈魂得到自由。」

淒美的愛情故事,永遠是教人懷念且雋永的。…

LOVE SONG FOR A VAMPIRE
(Annie Lennox)

Come into these arms again and lay your body down
The rythum of this trembling heart is beating like a drum
It beats for you
It bleeds for you
It know not how it sounds
For it is the drum of drums
It is the song of songs

Once I had the rarest rose that ever deigned to bloom
Cruel winter chilled the bud and stole my flower too soon
Oh loneliness
Oh hoplessness
To search the ends of time
For there is in all the world no greater love then mine

Love oh love oh love oh love

Still falls the rain
Still falls the night
Be mine forever

Let be the only one to keep you from the cold
Now the floor of hell is laid
With stars of brightest gold
They shine for you
They shine for you
They burn for all to see
Come into these arms again and set this spirit free

***
Annie Lennox,BMG(1992)
