WHAM!曾經是那個年代的代表

我還記得當時有同學拿到了他們在天安門拍的MV

如獲至寶的央求老師在視聽室放給我們看

 

天安門耶!

開玩笑!那個年代,連日本片都是禁止的

更何況是在老共家裏拍的音樂MV

一群同學擠到了小小的視聽室

就為了滿足看到WHAM!的精彩表演

私立學校地小、所以教室也小

那時的音樂教室、圖書館、視聽室全是違章建築

又悶又熱

但是,大家看得是讚嘆不已啊! 

 

WHAM!拆夥之後,George Michael就單飛了

那時就已經盛傳他是一位同性戀的歌手

那個年代!「同性戀」等於「變態」,是骯髒、下流、低級的

20年之後,社會對這個議題雖不避諱,但也沒給過她(他)們好臉色看過 

 

George Michael大部分都是以節奏輕快的歌曲為主

唯獨這一首歌,是我最青睞的

一方面,還是不脫我最喜愛的「黑白色調」

另一方面,慢歌中又顯出那種高音抑揚頓挫的感覺

可惜這一首歌沒有CD,那時我買的是喜瑪拉雅出的單曲錄音帶

一面就只兩首,另一首是演奏曲

錄音帶……找不到囉!

 

I'd say love was a magical thing

I'd say love would keep us from pain

Had I been there, had I been there

 

I would promise you all of my life

But to lose you would cut like a knife

So I don't dare, no I don't dare

 

'Cause I've never come close in all of these years

You are the only one to stop my tears

And I'm so scared, I'm so scared

 

Take me back in time maybe I can forget

Turn a different corner and we never would have met

Would you care

 

I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze

Little by little you've brought me to my knees

Don't you care

 

No I've never come close in all of these years

You are the only one to stop my tears

I'm so scared of this love

 

And if all that there is this fear of being used

I should go back to being lonely and confused

If I could, I would, I swear
