英國電子流行搖滾名團〔驚懼之淚〕與美國黑人女歌手〔歐莉塔亞當斯〕──流行與靈魂的完美融合──〔Woman In Chains／被鏈住的女人〕



＜Woman In Chains＞
You better love loving you better behave
You better love loving you better behave
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Calls her man the Great White Hope
Syas shes fine, shell always cope
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Well I fell lying and waiting is a poor mans deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel
Its a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

Trades her soul as skin and bone
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Men of Stone Men of Stone

Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds Time cant heal
And I feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean
Its a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

Its under my skin but out of my hands
Ill tear it apart but I wont understand
I will not accept the Greatness of Man

Its a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

So Free Her So Free Her



１９８９年秋天　繼首支美國亞軍暢銷曲〔Sowing The Seeds Of Love／播撒愛的種子〕後
英國電子流行／搖滾團體驚懼之淚（Tears For Fears）發行〔The Seeds Of Love／愛的種子〕大碟第二單曲〔Woman In Chains／被鏈住的女人〕

１９８５年　他們在堪薩斯一家飯店酒吧中聽到一名３２歲美國黑人女歌手歐莉塔亞當斯（Oleta Adams，１９５３－）的表演

驚為天籟

兩年後驚懼之淚邀請歐莉塔在〔The Seeds Of Love〕獻聲

〔Woman In Chains／被鏈住的女人〕便是主唱Roland與她的合唱

英國巨星菲爾柯林斯還特地為此曲打鼓
是首靈魂／福音味濃厚的抒情佳作
在Roland 與歐莉塔兩人傑出的詮釋下 令人印象深刻

後者的聲音真有點天籟飄揚的錯覺

此曲拿到英國＃２６　美國流行榜３６（現代搖滾榜得到＃２７）

法國＆荷蘭Top２０  澳洲＆義大利＆愛爾蘭＆紐西蘭Top４０　＆＆　

１９９２年驚懼之淚推出告別精選時　重新發行此曲

又拿到英國＃５７

是首相當美妙的靈魂抒情佳作

讓歐莉塔亞當斯受到矚目　單飛後還獲得不錯成績

個人蠻喜歡這首歌　特別是歐莉塔的演繹
