老歌亂談（八十四）Unchain My Heart

留言 4 收藏 0 推薦 2

不知各位有沒看過一部2004年出品的電影─Ray(心靈傳奇)，講述的是美國黑人盲人歌手Ray Charles（雷查爾斯）傳奇一生的故事，電影還不錯看，而這首《Unchain My Heart》即是他在1962首唱的歌曲。

之後，許多爵士歌手都很喜歡翻唱此曲，包含Joe Cocker、Nancy Wilson以及日本女歌手Akiko Wada、Lisa Ono（小野麗莎）等，但這些都不是我當年聽的版本。我真的搜尋了很久很久(以「年」計)，而在前幾天忽然之間被找到了（哈哈！看上傳日期也還不是很久）。翻唱者是The Astronauts，樂團曲風也是屬於「沖浪搖滾」，60年代中期走紅於日本，但並未如同期的「投機者樂隊」、「海灘少年」般的聲名大噪。之前我也完全不認識這個合唱團體，但當年聽的確實是他們的版本。

喜歡爵士口味的，還是可以去找原唱來聽。

Unchain my heart, baby let me go
Unchain my heart, 'cause you don't love me no more
You've got me sewed up like a pillow case
but you let my love go to waste so
Unchain my heart, oh baby set me free

Unchain my heart, baby set me free
Unchain my heart 'cause you don't care about me

Ev'ry time I call you on the phone
Some fella tells me that you're not at home so
Unchain my heart, oh baby set me free

I'm under your spell like a man in a trance
But I know darn well, that I don't stand a chance so
Unchain my heart, let me go my way
Unchain my heart, you worry me night and day
Why lead me through a life of misery
when you don't care a bag of beans for me
So unchain my heart, oh baby set me free

I'm under your spell like a man in a trance
But I know darn well, that I don't stand a chance so
Unchain my heart, let me go my way
Unchain my heart, you worry me night and day
Why lead me through a life of misery
when you don't care a bag of beans for me
So unchain my heart, baby set me free
