我最喜欢的乐队之一 - QUEEN

zmzhu

本人最喜欢的乐队之一，也应该是英国有史以来最伟大的乐队之一。
皇后乐队是20世纪70年代风靡流行乐坛的著名乐队。乐队的主要成员有主唱键盘手佛莱迪·摩克瑞（freddie mercury），吉它手布兰恩·梅（brain may），鼓手罗杰·泰勒（roger taylor）和贝斯手约翰· 迪肯（john deacon）。皇后乐队是流行歌坛中少有的学识涵养较高的团体，因为除了主唱佛莱迪外，其他3个成员都拥有学士学位。上世纪70年代，英国的重金属乐队往往给人不修边幅的落魄印象，但同样打着重金属旗号的“皇后”乐队，则在其着装和举止等方面显示出一派贵族气质。他们打扮雍容华贵，艳丽夺目，大有皇家艺术气质。
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彩。Queen 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，主唱性感而如同唱诗班的嗓音，层层铺垫的键盘和绚烂花哨的吉他 solo 是他们的标志。Queen 的音乐具有非凡的想象力，雄壮而带有一丝诡异，而且风格变化多端，你可以从他们的音乐中听到几乎所有欧洲音乐形式（传统和现代）的影子。不过，Queen 如此博大的音乐居然全部是用传统的摇滚方式表达出来的，多年来，他们的专辑一直宣称“从未使用过合成器”，这忠诚地保留着 Led Zeppelin 时期硬摇滚乐队的特点，尽管到 80 年代，乐队也开始尝试了更多的键盘，但始终没有碰过电子乐，因为电子乐正是那些“真正的摇滚”乐队所不屑的。
　　值得一提的是，由于主唱 Freddie Mercury 是一个彻底的同性恋者，致使乐队的整体风格偏于奢华，编曲经常仿造古典音乐的那种华丽氛围，这集中体现于他们的名曲《 Bohemian Rhapsody 》。Mercury 是一个花哨的同性恋者，他总是在洗手间里从事不雅之举，直到他 1992 年因艾滋病去世。他的性态度充分体现在 Queen 的音乐中，这点可以从他们那朦胧的歌词中看出来。具有讽刺意味的是，Queen 那首关于同性恋的赞歌《 We Are The Champions 》却成了弘扬体育精神和奥运冠军的经典庆贺曲目，直到现在在各种体育盛会上我们还能时常听到这首歌——不过这也得归功于 Mercury 那富有传奇色彩的生平和歌剧色彩浓厚的舞台表演方式，他使得 Queen 在 70 年代中期成为最广为人知的乐队之一。在英国，直到 90 年代中期，Queen 仍是知名度和受欢迎程度仅次于 The Beatles 的摇滚乐队。
　　尽管 Queen 的名声很响亮，但他们似乎很少得到乐评和媒体的好评。不断的批评并没有削减 Queen 的知名度，甚至一直到 80 年代末，Queen 仍然拥有除了美国之外的大量歌迷。在美国，乐队的颠峰时期是在 80 年代初期，也就是在他们在上一个十年里发行了一系列相当成功的专辑之后的一段时间里，虽然这些唱片在当时无一受到好评，但它们的销量却大的惊人。 Queen 的音乐影响深远，在 20 年来的几代硬摇滚／重金属乐队身上都能找到影子，从 Metallica 到 The Smashing Pumpkins。

Bohemian Rhapsody



Words and music by freddie mercury

Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Caught in a landslide-
No escape from reality-
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see-
Im just a poor boy,i need no sympathy-
Because Im easy come,easy go,
A little high,little low,
Anyway the wind blows,doesnt really matter to me,
To me

Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger,now hes dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now Ive gone and thrown it all away-
Mama ooo,
Didnt mean to make you cry-
If Im not back again this time tomorrow-
Carry on,carry on,as if nothing really matters-

Too late,my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine-
Bodys aching all the time,
Goodbye everybody-Ive got to go-
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth-
Mama ooo- (any way the wind blows)
I dont want to die,
I sometimes wish Id never been born at all-

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche will you do the fandango-
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very frightening me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo figaro-magnifico-
But Im just a poor boy and nobody loves me-
Hes just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from this monstrosity-
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye-
So you think you can love me and leave me to die-
Oh baby-cant do this to me baby-
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here-

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really matters to me,

Any way the wind blows....

We Are The Champions (Live At Wembley 86)



Ive paid my dues -
Time after time -
Ive done my sentence
But committed no crime -
And bad mistakes
Ive made a few
Ive had my share of sand kicked in my face -
But Ive come through

We are the champions - my friends
And well keep on fighting - till the end -
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
cause we are the champions - of the world -

Ive taken my bows
And my curtain calls -
You brought me fame and fortuen and everything that goes with it -
I thank you all -

But its been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise -
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race -
And I aint gonna lose -

We are the champions - my friends
And well keep on fighting - till the end -
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
cause we are the champions - of the world -

附赠 Crazy frog版 We are the champions, 其实最喜欢Crazy Frog的Last Christmas，我太太说这神态太像我家宝宝了

Steve walks warily down the street,
With the brim pulled way down low
Aint no sound but the sound of his feet,
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, Im gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust

How do you think Im going to get along,
Without you, when youre gone
You took me for everything that I had,
And kicked me out on my own

Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Chorus

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When hes down
But Im ready, yes Im ready for you
Im standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating the sound of the beat

This thing called love I just cant handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I aint ready
Crazy little thing called love
This (this thing) called love
(called love)
It cries (like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (woo woo)
It jives (woo woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish,
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love

There goes my baby
She knows how to rock n roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat

I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until Im ready
Crazy little thing called love

I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until Im ready (ready freddie)
Crazy little thing called love

This thing called love I just cant handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I aint ready
Crazy little thing called love

We Are The Champions and we will ROCK U ! (paopaobing(56))

steveking

皇后的这几首都是特别特别经典，在国内的时候不知道这些歌都是他们的，虽然在各种电视节目里看到，尤其是那首 WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS。。。到了澳洲，看多了老歌回放，才认识了他们。

steveking

很难欣赏80年代末，90年代初的那股重金属风，比如AEROSMITH，BON JOVI，METALLICA。不过像 QUEEN，U2 的不那么硬的摇滚还是狠～～～喜欢 (paopaobing(32))

老陶

同感，最喜欢听这两首歌。尤其是 we are the champions。看网络小说《我们是冠军》，看到激动处，就在家里跳在沙发上大唱这首歌。LP据说这个宅男又在发疯了。

steveking

老饕喜欢那些真正的 HEAVY METAL 吗？AEROSMITH ， BON JOVI 什么的。BON JOVI 有首 LAY YOUR HANDS ON ME, 整首歌除了嘶喊，好像就一句歌词 LAY YOUR HANDS ON ME

老陶

记得高中时，特迷Def Leppard，买了他的一盒磁带。整天放在walkman里听。跟着他唱。这也是我唯一喜欢的一只重金属乐队。

老陶

有机会，我把喜欢的他的几首歌找出来，发个帖。介绍一下。

steveking

小本本记下咧。

老陶

bruce springsteen实际上是我接触类似METAL（实际上应该是摇滚）的第一个歌手，但只喜欢他的一首歌，很老的，名字都忘了。总之是说美国什么什么的。我去查一下，再来编辑这个回帖。

这里向各位筒子道个歉，刚才回家的时候，在车山就哼哼着，突然就想起了我说的那个歌《born in the USA》，再一查是布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀的，而我一直固执的认为这是Bond Jovi的。 以至于SK 问我BON JOVI时我马上就反映出这首歌。装B 啊。(paopaobing(58)) 不过不管怎样，从小就被他那声嘶力竭的嘶吼给镇住了，以至于固执的认为他以后的歌不会比重更好的啦。所以也没有听他其余所有的歌。

怎么像虎妞的口气啊，她用大黑板，你用小本本。嘿嘿 放心，我今天有空就去弄，反正也下雨。没事可干。弄得好，记得加精哦。

steveking

如果你的主题贴超过6楼，一定加精，怎么样

[ 本帖最后由 steveking 于 2008-10-4 09:13 编辑 ]

老陶

就是说要六首好歌，应该行。我去找找

steveking

恩，当然不反对每楼贴2+首歌(paopaobing(32))

steveking

要有乐队歌手介绍。而且特别冷门的没有共鸣的歌不带 (paopaobing(32))  小小建议，可以加心情文字来代替视频。或者搞歌手拼盘（类似曲风，多位歌手）。

zmzhu

再送上一首Queen和名歌星David Bowie合作的Under Pressure, 这歌后来版本也很多，最有名的该是Vanilla Ice没经允许使用其节奏的Ice Ice Baby,我刚来澳洲的时候老放这歌。

Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure - that burns a building
down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
She been around
Kicked my brains round the floor
These are the days it rains but it never pours
People on streets
People on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow - high higher
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed
and torn
Why - Ooooh
Insanity laughs under pressure we're
cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more
chance
Why can't we give love
Give love give love give love give love
Give love give love give love
Love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves

This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure

老陶

谢谢SK的提醒。(paopaobing(39))

也喜欢皇后，一直想买classic queen这张cd, 可不知道哪里有正版的，lz是否知道

zmzhu

也是Queen的名曲，其他版本数George Michael的tribute版最有名



Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own -
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord - somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me - somebody to love?

(He works hard)

Everyday - I try and I try and I try -
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah - yeah yeah yeah

Oh Lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm ok, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
one day I'm gonna be free, Lord!

Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Barcelona barcelona

Viva



I had this perfect dream

-un sueño me envolvió

This dream was me and you

-tal vez estás aquí

I want all the world to see

-un instinto me guiaba

A miracle sensation

My guide and inspiration

Now my dream is slowly coming true



The wind is a gentle breeze

-él me habló de tí

The bells are ringing out

-el canto vuela

They're calling us together

Guiding us forever

Wish my dream would never go away



Barcelona - it was the first time that we met

Barcelona - how can I forget

The moment that you stepped into the room you took my breath away

Barcelona - la música vibró

Barcelona - y ella nos unió

And if God willing we will meet again someday



Let the songs begin

-déjalo nacer

Let the music play

-ahhhhhhhh...

Make the voices sing

-nace un gran amor

Start the celebration

-van a mí

And cry

-grita

Come alive

-vive

And shake the foundations from the skies

Ah,ah,shaking all our lives



Barcelona - such a beautiful horizon

Barcelona - like a jewel in the sun

Por tí seré gaviota de tu bella mar

Barcelona - suenan las campanas

Barcelona - abre tus puertas al mundo

If God is willing

-if God is willing

If God is willing

Friends until the end

Viva - barcelona

She keeps Moet et Chandon

In her pretty cabinet

"Let them eat cake" she says

Just like Marie Antoinette

A built in remedy

For Kruschev and Kennedy

At anytime an invitation

You can't decline



Caviar and cigarettes

Well versed in etiquette

Extraordinarily nice



Chorus:

She's a Killer Queen

Gunpowder, gelatine

Dynamite with a laser beam

Guaranteed to blow your mind

Anytime



Recommended at the price

Insatiable an appetite

Wanna try?



To avoid complications

She never kept the same address

In conversation

She spoke just like a baroness

Met a man from China

Went down to Geisha Minah

Then again incidentally

If you're that way inclined



Perfume came naturally from Paris

But God she couldn't care less

Fastidious and precise



Chorus





Drop of a hat she's as willing as

Playful as a pussy cat

Then momentarily out of action

Temporarily out of gas

To absolutely drive you wild, wild

She's all out to get you



Chorus





Recommended at the price

Insatiable an appetite

Wanna try?

You wanna try

It's a kind of magic,
It's a kind of magic,
A kind of magic,
One dream, one soul, one prize,
One goal, one golden glance of what should be,
It's a kind of magic,
One flash of light that shows the way,
No mortal man can win this day,
It's a kind of magic,
The bell that rings inside your mind,
It's a challenging the doors of time,
The waiting seems eternity,
The day will dawn of sanity,
Is this a kind of magic,
There can be only one,
This rage that lasts a thousand years,
Will soon be gone,
This flame that burns inside of me,
I'm hearing secret harmonies
It's a kind of magic,
The bell that rings inside your mind,
Is challenging the doors of time,
It's a kind of magic,
A little bit of magic,
Give it to me,
This rage that lasts a thousand years,
Will soon be will soon be,
Will soon be gone,
This is a kind of magic,
There can only be one,
This rage that lasts a thousand years,
Will soon be gone,
A little bit of magic,
Magic, magic, magic, magic,
This rage that lasts a thousand years,
Will soon be will soon be,
Will soon be gone,
Will soon be gone
