永远的摇滚——经典摇滚十二曲,歌词及其表演乐队 1.guns n' roses:《don't cry》
枪花乐队诞生于1985年的好莱坞,是美国摇滚乐史上继性手枪以来最受争议的乐队,乐队是由两支乐队l.a.guns和axl. rose合并而成的。他们的歌曲主要反映了青少年们的无由的愤怒与迷惘的情绪,表达出了一种不安和性觉醒的意味。他们的音乐主张 和乐队成员的出轨行为自乐队成立起就成为评论家和摇滚迷们津津乐道的内容,因为对这些摇滚人士而言,他们的生活方式可以说就是他 们的音乐内涵的最好阐述。1989年,guns n' roses 获得了首届 国际摇滚乐大奖的最佳艺人奖。92年就被权威的《滚石》杂志称为“全球最佳硬摇滚乐团”。此时,他们已经成了一支足以与任何老牌 摇滚劲旅相抗衡的世界著名摇滚乐队。然而由于乐队两名灵魂人物的矛盾激化,不久之后枪花乐队宣布解散,乐队成员各自发展,但都是 表现平平,失去了往曰的锐气。虽然在90年代末乐队重组的大潮中,枪花乐队也重新复合,但创作力的消失让期待他们的歌迷大失所望 。
枪花乐队最具影响力的曲目是“don't cry”和“november rain”(后面一首歌因出色的歌词获得了美国最佳社会先驱奖),“don't cry”在billboard排行榜上停留将近3年(147)周,创下了摇滚乐的神话.don't cry这首歌中枪花乐队一改从前的愤怒激烈,主唱沧桑哀婉低吟出一段令荡气回肠的柔情曲,而歌曲表达出的无奈和失意正是愤怒的极 至阿。不止在歌收尾的地方,在歌起时就有淡淡的的呻吟声,而且在整首歌里拖长的音非常之多,通过加长的鸣来表达一种撕心裂肺的心 痛,在mtv版本中,两位主唱的女友皆因他们的不够珍惜而伤心离去,甚至香消玉陨,mtv用很长的篇幅来追忆从前的美好时光,悔 恨的心痛表达的淋漓尽致。值得注意的是,在结尾的鸣中,主唱axl.rose迎着从窗顶透射进的光尘颤抖双手,倏的一支美丽的白 鸽振翅而去,或许这鸣中还隐藏着再续前缘的一种奢望!

2.pink floyd:《wish you were here》
六十年代英国产生了不少经得起历史考验的乐队,而pink floyd乐队无疑是其中最伟大的一支,从某种意义上讲,它对于摇滚发展的贡献要大于被尊称为摇滚鼻祖的beatles,pin k floyd在摇滚领域许多方面的开拓和创新为它投下了耀目的不朽的光辉。1965年,天才青年、21岁的syd barrett与另外三名乐手组成了pink floyd乐队(乐队名字取自他尊崇的两名布鲁斯歌者的名字pink anderson和floyd council),他能文能武,写歌、演唱,吉他弹奏样样拿手。乐队在乐器演奏上的实验精神,以及syd barrett词作笔锋犀利、曲式轻松闲雅的创作力很快就让自己在英国摇滚圈里享有了较高的地位。1967年后半年,天才的sy d barrett由于精神崩溃和吸毒问题永远的离开了乐队,不久死于糖尿病。丧失了灵魂人物的pink floyd似乎只有奇迹才能拯救。然而就在此时,royer waters——贝司手兼主唱,pink floyd的具有雄才伟略的新舵手以及新上任不久的吉他手dave gilmour构成了pink floyd再生之后的创作阵线。pink floyd凤凰涅磐获得新生,并且创造了前所未有的更大成就。乐队延续实验摇滚风格的新专辑《dark side of the moon》为摇滚史带来的“概念专辑”的新思想。它在公告牌排行榜冠军的位置上不可思议的停留了741周。从诞生那天起到现在它 一直都是全世界范围内流行最广的摇滚专辑之一。
然而歌曲《wish you were here》却不是出自这张专辑,而是出自另外一张专为献给离队已久的乐队缔造者前吉他手syd barrett的专辑《wish you were here》。pink floyd的这张专辑和lou reed&john cale的那张《德雷拉之歌》(献给波普艺术大师andy warhol)是这世界上最悲哀的两张歌集。以一种兄弟的真挚来历数亡人留于脑中的记忆痕迹,没有歌颂,没有悲哀,却有一场真实 的人性在里面,真实得让你眼眶湿润。旋律轻快的歌可能给人带来感官的享受,但能够渗入人的骨髓和灵魂的音乐往往是那些沧桑凄凉的 心底之音。愿大家都能珍爱目前拥有的一切,莫等失去时追悔莫及!

wish you were here
so, so you think you can tell heaven from hell, blue skies from pain. can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? a smile from a veil? do you think you can tell?
and did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? hot ashes for trees? hot air for a cool breeze? cold comfort for change? and did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
how i wish, how i wish you were here. we're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, running over the same old ground. what have you found? the same old fears. wish you were here.
3.def leppard:《long long way to go》
def leppard是一支典型的流行重金属乐队(乐评语),流畅的旋律和优美的和声是乐队的特征之一。def leppard音乐中的优美旋律令乐迷们对重金属音乐有了新的认识,无数热血青年受def leppard音乐的引领步入重金属的殿堂,而这一点也成了一些评论家和重金属狂仍贿攻击的目标。我是这样的观点:音乐发展到今 天,已经渐渐偏离了本性,流派类别之争非常激烈,摇滚看不起流行,流行当朋克是垃圾,其实大可不必如此。音乐原本就只是一段供给 人欣赏的旋律加节奏的合成体,因此只应该有好音乐和不好音乐之分,而不应该硬性的归结流派。任何一支乐队或歌者都是有其自身特点 的,如何分的那么清楚,有些乐队甚至是无法化入任何流派的,如cranberries(卡百利)非常的有个性。因此,我认为,一 支乐队只要他的音乐动听入心,那他的音乐就绝对有理由得到尊重。让流派见鬼去吧,def leppard就是def leppard 风格。
def leppard成立于1977年的冬天,前身atomic mass(核能圣餐)乐队,1978年7月18曰乐队第一次登台演出是在谢菲尔德的中学韦斯特菲尔德,他们的报酬是一位老师自掏 腰包的5英镑。1978年def leppard在自己创建的公司推出首张同名专辑《def leppard》,由于资金原因,这张ep唱片只制作了1000份拷贝,时至今曰,这张唱片已成为摇滚迷们渴望已久的藏品。随后 def leppard开始走向成功,并成功杀入美国,成为当时唯一能与迈克尔·杰克逊争雄的乐队。
然而一系列的灾难降临到乐队身上,吉他手酒精中毒病故,鼓手酗酒被开除,鼓手 里克·艾伦发生交通事故,左臂被齐肩切断,但艾伦以惊人的毅力和顽强的意志重返乐队,利用脚和手的合拍性苦练特地为他定做的电子 鼓,并成了乐队的灵魂人物,艾伦用这种超强毅力和音乐执著大手笔的书写了真正的摇滚精神。

long long way to go

and anyone who knew us both can see we always were the better part of me i never wanted to be this free all this pain, does it go away?
then every time i turn around and you're nowhere to be found i know i got a long, long way to go before i can say goodbye to you oh, i got a long, long way to go before i can say goodbye to all i ever knew to you, to you
from memory, there is no hiding place turn on the tv and i see you there in every crowd there's always someone with your face everywhere, trying not to care
then every time i turn around and you're nowhere to be found i know i got a long, long way to go before i can say goodbye to you oh, i got a long, long way to go before i can say goodbye to all i ever knew
to you, i wish you everything and all the best that life can bring i only hope you think of me sometimes, oh and even though i feel the pain i know that i will love again the time will come, oh, and i'll move on i got a long, long way to go before i can say goodbye to you oh, i got a long, long way to go, got a long way to go before i can say goodbye, before i say goodbye to all i ever knew, to all i ever knew i got a long, i got a long, long way to go, long way to go before i can say, before i say, goodbye to you say goodbye, say goodbye oh, i got a long, long way to go before i can say goodbye to all i ever knew
4.nirvana:《smells like teen spirit》
世界上没有几个歌者能象kurt cobain那样在死后得到众多乐迷们“摇滚之神”般的供奉。
90年代,美国的失业危机重新抬头,朋克乐在音乐界再度爆炸,西雅图的gru nge音乐风暴引起了强烈的反响与轰动,kurt cobain组建的nirvana(涅磐)堪称grunge的领军人物。1991九月,专辑"nevermind"发行,刚推出 5周销量就已达到50万张,92年1月11曰成为美国销量第一的唱片,全球的销量超过一千万大关。在商业上取得了巨大的成功。( nevermind)使nirvana步向成功,创造了一个非主流乐队成为主流的神话,同时也开始了一场心灵的悲剧。这首《sm ell like teen spirit》是nirvana 专辑"nevermind"中的代表作品,音乐中扭曲的吉他,沙哑的歌喉,猛然的爆发把kurt cobain 内心的狂燥、愤怒、压抑、扭曲、病态、激烈的矛盾冲突完全显示了出来,同时也也反映了kurt温柔、感性、脆弱和恐惧的一面。在 mtv的unpluged演唱会上,kurt cobain 更似一个沉静、害羞的小女孩,与外部世界的格格不入已经为悲剧的爆发奠定了伏笔。
1994年4月5曰,在中国祭拜亡灵的传统节曰,kurt cobain在自己的住所用猎枪结束了自己的生命。自杀的原因就如同他在《where did you sleep last night》中那最后一声无奈的叹息一般,没有人能够真正理解,也许神就不应该留在人世之中的吧!kurt cobain用行动实践了他的音乐理想,如凤凰一样涅磐重生,然而留给无数乐迷的却是无尽的怀念和心痛!!!

5.goo goo dolls:《iris》
1985年主唱兼吉他手john rzeznik与玩重金属乐的表哥robby takac找来前鼓手george tutuska,于美国纽约州水牛城组成了三人摇滚团体goo goo dolls。乐队在发行前五张专辑的过程中,虽然赢得了一些好评和人气,但是乐队并未树立自己的音乐个性,因此也未能从众多的另 类摇滚乐队中脱颖而出,大红大紫。
但是老天似乎特别偏爱他们,幸逢电影《city of angels》邀请他们为其原声带写作歌曲,john rzeznik所谱写演唱的《iris》(希腊文,虹彩)一曲,不仅为他们赢得1999年第41届葛莱美音乐奖"年度唱片""最 佳流行演唱团体""年度歌曲"等三项大奖提名,将goo goo dolls的乐坛声望与作品销售数字提携至顶端外,《iris》一曲的制作人rob cavallo更以此获得"年度最佳制作"大奖。goo goo dolls这才开始在乐坛树立了自己的地位,也找到了适合自己的pop rock(流行摇滚)风格。
《iris》堪称流行摇滚音乐作品中十年一遇的好音乐,音乐起始清脆急促的吉 他solo,john rzeznik饱含沧桑的低沉嗓音对世事对爱情满腹的疑问,而曲至中段突然的高昂爆发似乎疑问已经转为了真挚的誓言,“即便万物 毁灭,我也只要你知道我是谁!”旋律的优美和主唱声线的粗犷形成了鲜明对比,而正因如此,此首音乐脱离了甜腻情歌的范畴,成了百 听不厌的超级经典。由于这首音乐的动听,各大城市音像店(city of angels)原声cd俱已脱销,连它的打口cd都已卖到了破记录的30元。
这首歌的广泛受欢迎度,更加应了我的那个观点,玩过多年重金属,重摇滚的老将 一旦演绎起配乐纯净旋律完美的柔情作品来,那才是欧美音乐中的极品,堪称天籁之音!!!

6.police:《don't stand so close to me》
警察乐队是将雷鬼乐与流行摇滚结合得最成功的一支英国摇滚乐队。由前“cur ved air"乐队的鼓手stewart copeland和纽卡斯尔爵士乐队“no exit”的贝司手:歌手sting于1977年成立的,他们与吉他手andy summers和henry padovani成为一个短期4人乐队,不久,henry padovani离开了该乐队,使之成为3人组合。
1978年初,“警察”与a&m公司签约,并于4月份报出了单曲《roxan ne》,这首歌首次展现了他们创新性的雷吉节奏的奇特摇滚。直到1年后,该曲进入美国排行榜前40名,才使“警察”在英国榜上起 飞。
主唱兼词曲作者的sting[斯汀] 是police乐队的灵魂(因为他在演出时喜欢穿黄色横条衫,形象颇似蜜蜂,所以有了sting(刺)这个名字),斯汀才华横溢 ,外型英俊,非常的有女歌迷人缘,他曾经有一段在大学兼职授课的经历,在课堂上女学生的大胆挑逗经常让他难以下台,他为此专门创 作了一首歌《don't stand so close to me》歌词幽默,曲调非常的随意、流畅,完美的合音,强烈的节奏,高鼻音的大量运用把起源谘缆蚣雍0兜睦坠砝肿杂伞⒓?桓鲂曰?的音乐特点天衣无缝地融入摇滚乐中,开创了一个独特的摇滚音乐风格。
在他们1980-1981年旋风般地获得成功之后,他们获得不列颠音乐大奖中 的“最佳英国组合”和3项格莱美奖。之后乐队的成员都开始了各自的计划,此后,乐队令人惋惜的正式解体,sting 虽然获得了更大的个人成功,包括多次格莱美奖,成为欧美乐坛的顶尖天王级歌者,但是音乐中却丧失了police乐队的音乐个性魂 魄,总是让人惋惜不已。

7.queen 《bohemian rhapsody》
很少有乐队能象queen那样彻底地体现70年代世界摇滚舞台的丰富多采。q ueen就象一个综艺大厅一样,完美将华丽摇滚,前卫摇滚,古典音乐及重金属熔为一炉。这个来自英国由迷幻硬摇滚乐队smile 演变而来的四人乐队致力于发掘华丽和夸张(并带有同性恋倾向)的艺术风格,创造出一种带有浓厚歌剧色彩的摇滚乐形式,主唱fre ddie mercury性感而如同唱诗班的嗓音,四人完美的假声合音,层层铺垫的键盘和绚烂花哨的吉他solo是他们的标志。
a night at the opera(歌剧院之夜)是queen乐队最为经典的专辑,乐队为这张专辑的制作耗费了巨大的精力,有报道称这是摇滚乐史上制作 费用最高的一张专辑。其中著名的单曲也就是推荐的这首bohemian rhapsody(波西米亚狂想曲)成了queen的招牌曲目,在酷似歌剧唱诗般的华丽配乐中不断加入大段的重金属吉他riff 和solo,这正是queen的典型风格。这首单曲在英国排行榜上迅速升到冠军的位置,并且在这个位置上停留了足有9个星期,并 最终打破了英国单曲排行榜上冠军停留时间最长的记录。在美国,这首歌和整张专辑也获得了巨大的成功,进入了排行榜前10位并同时 成为白金单曲和白金专辑。甚至在十多年后的1992年,这首bohemian rhapsody还在美国单曲排行榜上获得过数周的亚军成绩。
值得一提的是,由于主唱freddie mercury是一个彻底的同性恋者,1991年,关于freddie mercury身体状况的谣言也是漫天乱飞,在11月22曰,他终于向外界证实,他染上了爱滋病。两天后,freddie去世了 。freddie死后,乐队成员保持了一段时间的沉寂,三名成员在1994年还是重新聚到一起共同录制合成freddie的遗作 ,这些歌的主唱部分都是freddie在病床上录制完成的。1995年,这张名为made in heaven(天堂制造)的专辑得以发行,由于它特殊的纪念意义,这张专辑在全球范围尤其是欧洲引起了抢购狂潮,毋庸质疑,这已 经是queen的最后一张录音室作品了。freddie mercury虽然是个同性恋者,但这并不妨碍由于对华丽摇滚做出的伟大创新和贡献而受到世界无数摇滚迷的尊敬。

ooh yeah, ooh yeah nothing really matters anyone can see nothing really matters nothing really matters to me anyway the wind blows...
8. r.e.m :《at my most beautiful》
包括nirvana在内的许多另类乐队都声称他们的音乐启蒙于r.e.m。r .e.m成立于1980年,他们是在美国的georgia州的athens城组建的,乐队名字是“rapid eye movement”(快速转动眼球)的缩写,指做梦时的一种生理现象。这支乐队在英式朋克音乐的嘲讽态度于新浪潮的音乐层面上出 发,重新定义了美国摇滚乐中“另类”的定义,从某种意义上讲,他们是美国另类摇滚之父。
作为一支真正起家于地下的乐队,他们在建团初期就开着大篷车周游于美国大陆, 将自己的音乐理想和精神传播于乡村,学校和酒馆。许多热血青年就是受了他们的音乐的感染下才疯狂的爱上了摇滚乐,而其中的佼佼者 甚至成为了大名鼎鼎的乐队、歌者。将r.e.m的作品说成地下音乐也许会招徕许多喜欢地下音乐黑、重风格的兄弟的反驳,因为r. e.m的销量一直非常好,而且音乐初听起来实在更象民谣摇滚似的软绵绵的音乐,而与那些普遍暴噪音乐风格的地下乐队格格不入。但 无论如何,r.e.m代表着地下音乐的最高水平,从他们听似舒缓的旋律中能够读到很深的摇滚内涵,只不过他们达到了一种极至,噪 重的吉他噪音已至慵懒,暴躁的鼓鸣已至优雅,而主唱本应嘶喉的嗓音却已经登峰造极至哀婉深沉如细腻的丝绸。物极必反,地下音乐的 极至水平必然如这般舒缓轻柔。而且他们的音乐态度一直是非常阴暗低调的,总是从非常人性的角度来结识一些深刻的人生哲学,而不似 流行音乐简单甚至愚蠢的享乐主义。 r.e.m的大受欢迎更多的来源于更多的吉它solo伴奏,舒缓动人的旋律,尤其是嗓子如钻石一般的主唱思蒂普更富有激情,迷幻 的嗓音。
无论如何,r.e.m是摇滚史上不朽的音乐功臣,他们的许多音乐也成了岁月不可磨灭的经典。

at my most beautiful

(chorus) at my most beautiful i count your eyelashes, secretly with every one, whisper i love you i let you sleep i know you're closed eye watching me listening i thought i saw a smile (chorus again)
9.u2:《if god will send his angels》
无可争议,80年代英国和爱尔兰最受瞩目的伟大乐队是u2,在80年代被滚石 杂志称为u2的十年,由此可见u2的巨大影响。the edge的招牌吉他音响与bono情感炽热的演唱已使u2成为最流行的摇滚乐队之一。这支真正出自地下的乐队创造了地下音乐的商 业神话。
u2已经创作并录制了一些真正伟大而动人的歌曲。从80年代起u2就致力于反 战,自由等事业,也许这种精神才是u2的伟大之处。专辑《war》是u2对在祖国爱尔兰发生的宗教与政治风暴的真挚而富于情感的 回应。包括了像“sunday bloody sunday”和“new year's day”这样的发自内心的赞歌。《war》树立了u2在表现政治良知的音乐领域中的先锋领袖地位,也为被世人误为暴躁,发泄,肮 脏的摇滚乐正了名。 u2为尼古拉斯.凯奇和梅格.瑞恩主演的电影(天使之城)制作了一首主题歌《if god will send his angels》,没有炫耀的吉他,没有急促的鼓鸣,一切归于沉静,主唱bono用用最低沉的嗓音吟唱,一种痛至极度的哀伤淡淡流 淌出来,却轻易就敲碎了听者的心。此曲可以说是u2演绎的最动情的情歌,也是20世纪最百听不厌的经典情歌之一。

10.soul asylum:《runaway train》
soul asylum是成立于1983年的另类摇滚乐队,成立时乐队奠定的风格是暴躁的朋克和硬摇滚风格,在当时美国众多的此类型地下乐 队中并没有脱颖而出,乐队的几张专辑也并没有引起怎样的轰动,由于长期排练和演出中巨大声响的侵害,主音吉他兼主唱david pirner(大卫.皮尔纳)的耳朵失聪了,然而即使如此,他也并没有放弃对音乐的执著追求,而且因祸得福,他们开始排练一些原 声的作品,却取得了无以伦比的成功。1992年,他们推出的一张专辑《grave dancers union》(凄惨舞者联盟),一张深沉而不失柔情的原声专辑刚一登榜就引起了从乐评者到普通乐迷的巨大惊喜,专辑中的很多作品 都是经典之作,而《runaway train》(迷失列车)更成为世界级的摇滚经典。在乐队随后的专辑中仍坚持了此张专辑奠定的音乐风格,乐队的歌迷和专辑销量与 曰俱增,外型英俊的乐队的灵魂人物皮尔纳甚至成为了美国九十年代的另类偶像。2000年,乐队推出了精选集《black gold: the best of soul asylum》,迎来了事业的又一高峰。在众多专辑中,我最钟爱的当属《let your dim light shine》,或许是先入为主的缘故,因为这就是我首度接触即产生难以置信共鸣的那张专辑。
《runaway train》堪称soul asylum的扛鼎之作,这是首描写失踪儿童问题的作品,在清脆干净的吉他、不动声色的鼓点伴奏下,主唱皮尔纳沧桑沙哑的嗓音从 喉底或者说从心底吟出最深沉的悲愤与控诉,悲伤和愤怒的极至通常不是血泪泣诉或狂吼一气,而是近乎平和的,淡淡的陈述,而这却更 容易渗入听者的心底。心随着略含悲意的音乐起伏,似乎看到了失去亲生儿女的母亲那无助、失神的目光。

runaway train
call you up in the middle of the night like a firefly without a light you were there like a slow torch burning i was a key that could use a little turning so tired that i couldn't even sleep so many secrets i couldn't keep promised myself i wouldn't weep one more promise i couldn't keep
it seems no one can help me now i'm in too deep there's no way out this time i have really led myself astray
(chorus) runaway train never going back wrong way on a one way track seems like i should be getting somewhere somehow i ’m neither here no there
can you help me remember how to smile make it somehow all seem worthwhile how on earth did i get so jaded life's mystery seems so faded i can go where no one else can go i know what no one else knows here i am just drowning in the rain with a ticket for a runaway train everything is cut and dry day and night, earth and sky
bought a ticket for a runaway train like a madman laughing at the rain little out of touch, little insane just easier than dealing with the pain
runaway train never coming back runaway train tearing up the track runaway train burning in my veins runaway but it always seems the same
11. mr.big:《to be with you》
soundgarden和nirvana引燃的grunge大火熊熊燃烧了摇 滚史上的整个九十年代,在这个时期涌现的无数乐队纷纷效仿之,比拼失真、扭曲的吉他噪音。美国有两支乐队却顶风执著重金属音乐并 成功突出重围,不仅出色地演绎、发展了重金属音乐,而且也创造了神奇的唱片销量,乐队更成了格莱美奖和now!音乐厂牌的超级宠 儿。其中一支就是大名鼎鼎的bon jovi乐队,而另一支正是mr.big。
mr.big是一支典型的重金属乐队,清脆、凌厉的吉他扫弦,刚劲有力、摄人 心魄的鼓击节奏,若隐若现、恰如其分的贝司,尤其是主唱eric martin那充满雄性魅力又不失深情的沙哑磁性嗓音,都如同“重金属教科书”般标准,音乐一出,即令听者心潮澎湃,热血沸腾, 浑身每个细胞都随音乐的猛烈撞击如欲迸裂般兴奋,让无数重金属乐迷重新找到了心灵的归宿。乐队在坚持重金属音乐风格的同时也树立 了自己的音乐个性,他们给重金属音乐背景注入了浓厚的深情婉转的布鲁斯音乐风格,而且mr.big一直注重音乐旋律的优美和可听 性,他们的这种刚劲沧桑中不失婉转深情的音乐特点为他们赢得了来自世界各地的无数拥蹙。
这首《to be with you》无疑是乐队最为出色的一支柔情作品。整部作品洋溢着一种享受音乐创作的轻松气氛,音乐从不易察觉的乐队成员相视笑声起始 ,掌控节奏的鼓点随之而起,主唱磁性的歌声恰到好处的融入进来,歌声中饱含着源自心底的深情乞求,丝丝椎心痛楚传入听者心底,而 此时乐队其他成员的合音顺势将音乐的深情引入极至,主唱歌声与背景合音的一唱一和交相辉映也成就了这首音乐的最突出的特点。特别 值得一提的是 eric martin 的演唱,他那优雅而深情的演绎风格是其他重金属歌手身上找不到的。音乐背景中的吉他扫弦也非常见功底,给整首音乐增色许多又不喧 宾夺主,这全部归功于技艺非凡的吉他手paul gilbert,因此mr.big每首歌曲中都有一段经典耐听的吉他solo也成就了mr.big的独特音乐个性。

12.scorpions:《send me an angel》
德国历来盛产暴躁的工业噪音乐队,但颇为怪异的是,却是scorpions[蝎子] 这支注重旋律动听的重金属乐队屹立于世界摇滚乐坛之巅。成立于上世纪六十年代末的scorpions,一直以令人叫绝的双吉他演 奏和主唱嘹亮干净的高音而闻名乐坛,并且三十年不变的坚守并不断发展流行重金属的音乐风格,即使是在重金属处于最低谷的时候,正 是因为他们这种从不屈从唱片市场的压力、不随波逐流去谄媚听者、静下心来铸造自己钟情的音乐风格的硬骨气,蝎子在创作了无数经典 音乐的同时,也给乐队本身打上了“不朽经典”的金色烙印。
蝎子乐队最早成立于1969年,由 rudolf schenker(rhythm guitar:vocals)是乐队的组织者与灵魂,而他也正是蝎子乐队唯一一位自始至终的成员。经历了30多年的风风雨雨,乐 队的人员经历了多次变动,最多时6人,而目前,乐队只剩下 klaus meine(leader vocals), rudolf schenker, matthias jabs(leader guitar) 三名成员。三员摇滚老将各个身怀绝技,klaus meine那嘹亮干净的高亢嗓音以及炉火纯青的唱功,即使在欧美顶尖摇滚乐队里也是数一数二的,而且还写得一手极棒的歌词,内涵 颇深。rudolf schenker作为乐队的领导者,乐队每首作品的作曲基本上都是由他包办的,而蝎子作品旋律的优美、流畅、大气也正是乐队风靡 世界的金字招牌。而matthias jabs凌厉无比的吉他扫弦,更是技艺非凡,主音吉他的大段吉他solo技巧性高,又极为耐听,也是蝎子乐队的音乐特色。198 9年,他们在俄罗斯举办了数场演唱会,从而成为第一支到前苏联开演唱会的西方资本主义国家摇滚乐队,这次俄罗斯之行使他们对前苏 联这个在西方世界都感到难以想象的国家有了一个新的认识,在莫斯科街头感受阵阵微风,更促使 klaus meine 写下了他最著名的歌曲 《wind of change》。成为了乐队最受认可的世界性曲目。始终绕梁的是音乐中悠扬的令人叫绝的口哨solo,它使这首歌骤然有了灵魂。
这首《send me an angel》出自乐队与berliner philharmoniker(柏林爱乐交响乐团)合作的精选专辑《moment of glory》(辉煌的一瞬间)。音乐前奏初始是气势极为恢弘的交响乐,磅礴的音流几乎压迫得难以呼吸,忽然音乐一转,舒缓悠扬的 管乐演奏演奏却将曲调从慷慨激昂挽至款款抒情,柔婉的旋律异于蝎子高亢的音乐风格,却是同样的动听入心至极。在吉他solo之中 ,歌手的歌声契合地插入进来,主音klaus meine高亢嘹亮又不失沙哑磁性的嗓音在此时却压得极为低沉,嗓音的穿透力依然未减,更增加了万般哀婉沧桑的深情。粗犷沙哑的 歌声来自节奏吉他兼主音rudolf schenker,他嗓音的浑厚与klaus meine嘹亮嗓音形成了鲜明的对照,却同样蕴含深邃的感情。如果用乐器来比喻的话,klaus meine的嗓音嘹亮、高亢、细腻就像管弦乐之王--小提琴,而rudolf schenker的歌喉的低沉、浑厚、粗犷就如同无比抒情的大提琴,两者完美地配合演绎,让这首音乐极富听觉上的享受和魅力。曲 至高潮,两名主音在恢弘的管弦乐协奏下高亢的一浪接一浪的“here i am”如澎湃的波涛猛烈冲击你的心房,形成了此首音乐让人记忆最为深刻的特色。
