六年級生的音樂回憶...Nelson

After The Rain

這應該是專屬於我的六年級生的音樂回憶. 我想應該很少人認識這個樂團.

Nelson是由Nelson兄弟組的樂團. 出生於音樂世家(老爸是Ricky Nelson不過我不是很熟).

總之, 當時國中的我還不懂得什麼叫做叛逆. (當時流行的GNR我也是很後來才聽過.) 忘了在什麼情況之下聽過Nelson這個樂團. 兩兄弟飄逸的金色長髮唱著很帶勁的搖滾樂常讓我一個人聽的很high.

發行的首張專輯After the Rain(Geffen 1990)也是我買的第一張CD! 當時CD還很稀有, 我買了CD但其實家裡並沒有CD Player可以聽. 還是只能聽錄音帶...

其實聽Nelson這件事已經漸漸從我記憶中淡忘. 由於寫了Just Kiddin' !: 六年級生的音樂回憶...Michael Learns to Rock這篇文章才讓我又重新想起一開始接觸音樂的那些感動. 所以我私下決定最近都以這個為主題發表文章.

After The Rain跟後面這一首(Can't Live Without Your) Love And Affection是這張專輯裡面我最喜歡的兩首歌...下面這個MV應該是錄音帶轉的, 有些地方有點變調. 介意的話可以看這段比較乾淨.



Here she comes, just like an angel
Seems like forever that she's been on my mind
But nothing has changed
She thinks I'm a waste of her time
There she goes, she don't know what she's missing
Can't she see I'll never give give up the fight
I'll do all I can till she understands my desire
I'm on the outside looking in
Let me into your heart - oh -
There's nothing on earth that
Should keep us apart

I can't live without your love and affection
I can't face another night on my own
I'd give up my pride to save me from being alone
'Cause I can't live without your love

So I wait, here for an answer
And wonder if tomorrow will be like yesterday
I'll keep holding on
But I can't go on living this way
I've been on the outside looking in
Bring these tears to an end - oh -
I realize there's no use for me to pretend

Oh yeah

I can't live without your love and affection
I can't face another night on my own
I'd give up my pride to save me from being alone
'Cause I can't live without your love

For your love... I'd put my arms around you
For your love... and find the strength to tell you

I can't live without your love and affection
I just can't go on this way anymore
As hard as I try there's one thing that I know for sure
I can't live without your love
I can't live without your love
