Sunny Afternoon - The Kinks

《You Really Got Me》是1994年发行的双CD精选集,cover好复古~好喜欢~


Sunny Afternoon听起来有种老唱片机的feel,这是因为...它发布于1966年6月3日... 是的,你没看错.. 1966年.. 发行后不久便在UK单曲榜占据了第一名的位置长达两周之久。


这首歌收录于专辑《Face to Face》,Ray Davies写这首歌的时候一直在生病,他塑造了一个落魄贵族形象,歌词中透露着满满的无奈之情与想要逃避的心理,怀念自己过去惬意奢华的生活。在醉酒后把女友气回娘家,他也只能怀揣着半瓶冰啤酒,自己一个人“享受”这夏日的午后阳光... 





The Kinks介绍:


The Kinks来自英格兰,是英国流行摇滚的奠基人之一,活跃于6、70年代,曲风兼顾迷幻/流行/摇滚。他们和Beatles、The Who还有Rolling Stone乐队并称英国摇滚乐坛“Big Four”,一起掀起了所谓British Invasion,风靡世界乐坛。和许多流行摇滚乐队一样,The Kinks最大的悲哀就是和Beatles处于同一时代而且曲风相似,所以就算对摇滚再不了解的人也知道披头四或甲壳虫,却不太有人知道还有The Kinks这号人物。不过他们的音乐确实是很优秀的,大概是英国的Big Four里最有必要为大家再认识的乐队。
1963年,The Kinks在英格兰成立。1964年,他们以单曲《You Really Got Me》和《All Day And All Of The Night》开创了重金属摇滚这一新的乐种,富有激情,充满叛逆,深深地撞击着人们被世俗、争斗所牢牢禁锢的心灵。仅仅4年时间,他们便拥有了3首全英冠军单曲,同时这些单曲全部成功打入了美国的Top 10。

The tax man's taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken everythin' I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon

Save me, save me
Save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me

And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, in the summertime
In the summertime

My girlfriend's gone off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty

Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well, give me two good reasons
Why I ought to stay

'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In Summertime, in summertime
In summertime

Save me, save me
Save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tyin' to break me

And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summertime, in the summertime
In the summertime, in the summertime
In the summertime
