老歌亂談(497)Love Is All Around



英國樂團The Troggs的主唱Reg Presley某日在家中,聽到電視中另個樂團The Joystrings正在唱Love、Love...什麼的,而忽然得到了靈感,寫下了此首《Love Is All Around》。

此首歌走的是抒情曲風,和不久前才使得該團一炮而紅的翻唱曲《Wild Thing》的強力節奏差異甚大,而此曲成績卻也頗為亮眼,在英(1967)美(1968)排行榜分別獲得第5及第7名。

1994蘇格蘭樂團Wet Wet Wet翻唱此曲,並被引用在電影《Four Weddings and a Funeral》( 台譯:你是我今生的新娘 ) 中作為插曲,Wet Wet Wet的版本不僅奪下英國排行榜的冠軍,也是英國排行榜史上在冠軍位置停留時間第二長的歌曲。


海報---你是我今生的新娘

 

 




I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes
Love is all around me and so the feeling grows
It is written on the wind, it's everywhere I go
So if you really love me, come on and let it show

You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the way that I feel
There's no beginning, there be no end
'Cause on my love, you can depend

I see your face before me as I lay on my bed
I kind a get to thinkin' of all the things you said
You gave your promise to me and I gave mine to you
I need someone beside me in everything I do

You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the way that I feel
There's no beginning, there be no end
'Cause on my love, you can depend

It is written on the wind, it's everywhere I go
So if you really love me, come on and let it show
Come on and let it show, come on and let it show
Come on and let it show, come on and let it show
Come on and let it show
