老歌亂談(211)Drive My Car

 
 

 

披頭合唱團在1965錄製發行的這首《Drive My Car》,是由Paul McCartney所寫,而在歌詞部份,John Lennon也參與提供了不少的意見。

其實這是一首滿有趣的歌曲,講的是一位自認為會成為明日之星的女孩,提供一個私人司機的工作機會給男生,並說可能會因此愛上他。等到男生答應說可以立即上路,女孩卻說她沒車,但能找到個司機也是個開始………。

據Paul McCartney自己的說法,「Drive My Car」也是舊時對於「性」的一種隱晦暗喻。因此,聽歌者對歌詞保留了許多自我想像的空間,甚至有歌友想像他們後來有「車震」,歌詞中的 Beep beep'm 即是不小心弄出來的喇叭及呻吟聲。呵呵,我倒不這麼認為。不過,能激發出歌友有各種不同的想像,應也是這首歌的成功之處。



 

Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, can't you see
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you

I told that girl that my prospects were good
she said baby, it's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you

Beep beep'm beep beep yeah

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you

I told that girl I can start right away
When she said listen babe I got something to say
I got no car and it's breaking my heart
But I've found a driver and that's a start

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah

上週我介紹台中老同學到您的網站(年輊時候与林光寧組band.)他很高興再聽到 Teddy Robbin ~I Had Dreamed of You Last Night~, 說要好好享受一下這些好歌.

Paul McCartney & Wing 有很多好作品, 我喜歡這樂團 & ELO & Dire straits

聽老歌,有時聽到一首自己喜歡的,回憶回味一下舊時光,其實也滿不錯的。

當年聽熱門音樂,大概都偏重在流行的,現在有時間慢慢聽,還真有些聽不完的感覺。

林光寧之前在螢光幕前的形象是喜歡搞笑,後來聽說他曾和長腿美女馬XX有過曖昧關係,就令阿狗我欽佩不已。看資料,原來他還擔任過「雷鳥」的貝士手,更是失敬,應該對他來個一鞠躬。這次蕭敬騰被潑穢物事件,他女兒也跟著大大的出名了。
