老歌亂談(930)I've Been Away Too Long
George Baker原名Johannes "Hans" Bouwens,1944出生於荷蘭,1968加入了一個翻唱靈魂歌曲 ( 像是Otis Redding ) 的樂團Soul Invention。1969,該團發行了他們的首張專輯《Little Green Bag》,由於考慮到專輯中並無靈魂歌曲,而將團名更改為George Baker Selection。此George Baker為Hans Bouwens的藝名,係來自於偵探小說。
毫無疑問,George Baker Selection最出名的歌曲,當然就是Hans Bouwens所寫及擔任主唱的《Paloma Blanca》了,唱片在全球大賣超過7百萬張。此首《I've Been Away Too Long》亦為Bouwens所寫,首出現於1974,是作為單曲《Sing A Song of Love》的B面,後再收錄於該團1975的專輯《Paloma Blanca》中。
此曲聽起來像是首情歌,卻是愛上第三者,決定離開前的告白情歌,也知如此必會大大傷了對方的心,感情有時的確是自私又殘酷......。滿奇怪的,此曲在韓國似乎頗紅,在YouTube上有好幾位年輕歌手演唱此曲,以下所貼這位韓國妹的歌喉,誇讚的人不計其數,她所唱的其他歌曲,也都相當的棒。

亂談(823) Paloma Blanca
How can I say to you...
I love somebody new...You were so good to me, always...
And when I see your eyes...
I can't go on with lie...
It breaks your heart,
but I just can't hide it... Oh, no...
I I've been away too long...
Now I just can't go on...
I've been away too...
I, I've been away too long...
No, I can't be so strong...
I've been away too long...
Don't look that way to me...
It hurts you, so I see...
But I just can't go on with lie...
I gave you all I had...
So there is nothing left...
I may be wrong,
but I better go now... Oh, no...
I, I've been away too long...
Now I just can't go on...
I've been away too...
I, I've been away too long...
No, I can't be so strong...
I've been away too...
La, La, La, La, La, La, La...
La, La, La, La, La, La...
I've been away, too long...
