瑞典制造之第二章：Roxette

      进入北欧瑞典制造的第二章。

      1973-1982年间的歌坛有ABBA风靡一时。

      ABBA解散后没多久，80年底中期又一个瑞典组合横空出世——Roxette.

      Roxette组合由Marie Fredriksson和Per Gessle两人组成，一直维持至今。他们的音乐伴随我度过了整个学生时代，曾经还被Marie和Per的杀马特鼻祖造型迷得五迷三道。不过话说回来，他俩当年的样子直到现在仍然让我觉得很酷很拽。

     

      Roxette的热门歌曲太多，以这首《The Look》开场吧。这首让Roxette一炮而红的歌，甚至被谭咏麟拿去重新填词成了《你知我知》。

      从此，Roxette的歌曲一首一首成为全美冠军曲。那时候，能拿到Roxette的音乐mv录像带在同学间是很可炫耀的事。重温这首我最喜欢的歌吧。

【注】《Listen To Your Heart》——这么些年过去，这首歌始终保持着让我心动的旋律。

'Listen To Your Heart'

I know there's something in the wake of your smile.
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.
You've built a love but that love falls apart.
Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.
They're swept away and nothing is what it seems,
the feeling of belonging to your dreams.

Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

And there are voices
that want to be heard.
So much to mention
but you can't find the words.
The scent of magic,
the beauty that's been
when love was wilder than the wind.

Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

      除此之外，Per为电影《Pretty Woman》重新改编了《It Must Have Been Love》,这首歌也成了经典。

     

     
【注】《Fading Like A Flower》Marie与Per的配合恰到好处。现在流行乐坛与当年相比，差得不是一点点。

      再来两首快节奏的歌曲。

     重温旧曲之后，一起来听听Roxette在今年（2016）6月刚刚发表的新单曲。

【注】《It Just Happens》——不同于当下的流行歌曲，依旧听到了Marie富于穿透力的声音。

      三十年一弹指，只要Roxette还在，青春记忆就在音符里，不散。
