非常喜歡的一首歌
Can't fight this feeling
REO Speedwagon(Reo快速馬車合唱團)
成軍於1968年美國伊利諾州香檳市的流行搖滾團體REO Speedwagon,
在搖滾樂盛行的80年代與Journey、Synx並稱搖滾三大團。
這張封面已經是後來唱片公司出精選所用的

第一次聽到這首歌是在他車上,旋律很棒,歌詞也寫得很好,
我是無法抗拒西洋經典情歌的人,
但,1968年對一個七年級生來說,實在是太遙遠、太遙遠了,
下一次見面,他拿出他們這張專輯的黑膠唱片給我看,
說他以前當學生的時候,最喜歡在夏天的午後,躺在家裡和室涼涼的木頭地板上,
聽著他們的歌
(p.s有要特別強調,當時就已經是紅很久的老歌囉,所以請不要誤會他跟他們一樣『經典』)
然後當個多愁善感的憂鬱青年,想東想西....
『是喔~~~~想暗戀的女生嗎?』
『妳如果早點出生就想妳囉!!』
嗯....以前的宅男,還真是只能聽聽歌,想想事情ㄝ......
不過越是單純,應該越是讓人懷念且感到美好吧!
若傳送速度較慢,耐心等一下下喔^^
剛開始會覺得奇怪,一個小BABY的誕生,似乎與整首歌的感覺不符,
但耐心看下去之後.....
MV到最後竟然有.....小小難過的感覺,應該也算一種感動....
尤其是當只剩下孤單一人和空蕩的椅子....
但最後的一笑,
我想是因為生命的過程當中,有個深愛的人可以一起走過每個歲月變換,
所以也就沒有遺憾了吧.....
我竟然也多愁善感起來了~~~~
I cant fight this feeling any longer
And yet Im still afraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship, has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it show
I tell myself that I cant hold out forever
I said there is no reason for my fear
Cause I feel so secure when were together
You give my life direction
You make everything so clear
And even as I wander
Im keeping you in sight
Youre a candle in the window
On a cold, dark winters night
And Im getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
Its time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Cause I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crashing through your door
Baby, I cant fight this feeling anymore
My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
Ive been running round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that Im following you, girl
Cause you take me to the places that alone Id never find
And even as I wander Im keeping you in sight
Youre a candle in the window on a cold, dark winters night
And Im getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
Its time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Cause I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crushing through your door
Baby, I cant fight this feeling anymore.
