經典歌曲系列搖滾詩人Ainne Lennox 空靈抒情【No More I Love You’s】

huo85e

I used to be lunatic from the gracious days
I used to be woebegone and so restless nights
My aching heart would bleed for you to see
Oh but now...
(I don't find myself bouncing home whistling buttonhole tunes to make me cry)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word

(The lover speaks about the monsters)

I used to have demons in my room at night
Desire, despair, desire... SOOO MANY MONSTERS!
Oh but now...
(I don't find myself bouncing home whistling buttonhole tunes to make me cry)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me in silence
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word

(They were being really crazy
They were on the come.
And you know what mummy?
Everybody was being really crazy.
Uh huh. The monsters are crazy.
There are monsters outside.)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me in silence
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word
Outside the word

One of the finest and most outstanding musical voices of our time, singer, songwriter, campaigner and activist, Annie Lennox is celebrated as an innovator, an icon, and a symbol of enduring excellence. Annie’s music career is peerless with over 80 million record sales to date and winning countless awards, while her tireless charity work is widely praised receiving prestigious awards and honours.

In 1971, at the age of 17, Lennox left her native Scotland after gaining a place at the Royal Academy of Music in London.

From a fortuitous chance encounter with Dave Stewart in the early seventies, the pair went on to form The Tourists, who ultimately achieved significant success in the UK, Europe and Australia.

It was not until the break up of the band in '79 however, that Annie and Dave decided to form a duo, calling themselves "Eurythmics".

They released their first album, "In the Garden" in 1981, but it was not until the worldwide success of their second album, (Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This) in 1983, that Eurythmics became the musical phenomenon we know today.

Eurythmics went on to sell over 75 million albums, and achieved over 20 international hits across the world.

In 1990, Annie released her debut solo album entitled "Diva". Entering the charts at number 1 in the UK, the album sold around six million copies world wide, (including two and a half million in the USA). "Diva" included the Top 10 singles "Why", "Walking On Broken Glass" and "Little Bird".

In 1995, her second album was released, entitled "Medusa". An album of lovingly crafted reinterpretations of some of Lennox's favourite songs. It also debuted at number one, and included the massive single "No More "I Love You's"". Medusa sold around 5 million copies.

Annie released her third solo album "Bare" to much critical acclaim in June 2003, which went on to sell approximately two million copies worldwide.

Annie Lennox
前舞韻二人組Eurythmics的女主唱
No More"I Love You's"是選自她在1995年的個人第二張專輯Medusa

她似乎都是以舞台劇為主唱片量並不多
這張專輯中文就是"梅杜莎"

這首歌裡面有小孩子的聲音
是講歌手的男友(或丈夫)離開了她
歌詞的大意就是老樣子她抱怨著曾經的歡笑幸福遠離了她
她變的憂鬱 , 煩躁 , 難以入眠......
她形容她自己一到夜晚就會有許多妖怪來糾纏他
那些妖怪是指情慾, 絕望....
小孩子的那一段是歌手的以小孩的角色來詮釋
她向她媽媽說這世界上是多麼瘋狂
多麼多的妖怪在外面...向她逼近

至於 I love you 加上s 的問題
那是一種表現手法
因為她男友(或丈夫)離開他之後
歡笑離開了她以前常聽到的 " I love you " 也離開了她
她把 " I Love You" 當成了一個名詞
所以她說 no more I love you's ( 再沒有'我愛你'這種東西)

用了複數來表現.....(no more 後面要加複數)
