老歌亂談(499)When I Come Home
男人在外無日無夜的工作打拼，卻收到女友的來信，說另找到了個比自己還優的男友。遇到這種狀況真的是情何以堪？此時男人唯一的想法是，等回到家後，要女友將一切都交待清楚。
1966，英國的The Spencer Davis Group樂團以《Keep On Running》首度拿下英國排行榜的冠軍，隨即再推出此首《When I Come Home》欲乘勝追擊。唯在美國市場由於缺乏促銷，不要說是入榜，連在電台幾乎都未聽到在播放。
此曲為Spencer Davis Group的主唱Steve Winwood與團友所合寫。Steve於14歲時隨哥哥加入該團，主要為鍵盤手兼主唱，由於才華洋溢表現出眾，顯然不太可能長期屈就於以團長為名的樂團，終於在1967離團另行發展。後有兩首美國排行榜的冠軍曲，以及兩度獲得葛萊美獎，也於 2004以Traffic樂團的成員之一，進入搖滾名人堂。
這首歌在作詞或作曲上，雖非什麼驚人之作，但散發出的卻是一股濃濃的60年代搖滾樂風，令人懷念不已。
I gave you my heart
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
Now you're tearing it apart
You wrote me a letter
You found someone better
Better than me
This I can't believe
When I come home
Tell me all about it
When I come home
Tell me all about it
I work all day
Earnin' my pay
I work all night
To make you feel all right
When I come home
Tell me all about it
When I come home
Tell me all about it
When I come home
Tell me all about it
When I come home
Tell me all about it
When I come home
Tell me all about it
When I come home
Tell me all about it
