【英文歌曲】《RhythmoftheRain》歌詞、句型分析

1、音樂欣賞音樂欣賞Rhythm of the Rai nThe Cascades (瀑布合唱團(tuán))來自加州圣地亞哥的這支樂隊，是由擅長作曲以及吉他的主唱約翰廿莫(John Gummoe領(lǐng)軍的，他在1950年代末期結(jié)識了另外四位樂手，由于彼此十分投緣，決定共同組團(tuán)。他們以類 似屋頂歌 手合唱團(tuán)(The Rooftop Si ngers )的流暢抒情曲風(fēng),在許多 私人的宴會上演出，逐漸打響名聲。有一天晚上，他們正在某家俱樂部表演的時候，有一家唱片公司的星探正好在場，立刻決定跟他們簽約。1962年底，唱片公司把他們帶到好萊塢的錄音室，幫他們錄制第一張單曲Seco nd Cha nee，雖然并不成功，但是

2、他們的第二張單曲，也就是FRhythm of the Rain，卻得到了爆炸性的成功，在流行榜上獲得了第三名，同時更 勇奪抒情歌曲排行榜的冠軍。只可惜，他們的運(yùn)氣顯然不是很好(或許應(yīng)該說是生不逢辰吧)，接下來的F Shy Girl J 和 The Last Leaf J雖然也還算很受歡迎,卻無法再創(chuàng)同樣的高峰，加上披頭帶來的英國搖滾入侵狂潮，他們的唱片竟然被 認(rèn)為太美 國而遭到了消費(fèi)者的冷落，盡管他們繼續(xù)努力，去凹衣然改變 不了過氣的命運(yùn)，團(tuán) 員們先后打了退堂鼓，甚至連負(fù)責(zé)創(chuàng)作大部分歌曲的約翰甘莫也宣告退出，到了 1969 年，只剩下薩克斯風(fēng)手還是原始的團(tuán)員， 當(dāng)然也就更加的沒有東山再起的機(jī)會

3、了。不過，雖然他們只有一首真正暢銷的歌曲，這首Rhythm of the Rain卻成了流行音樂史上最令人難忘的經(jīng)典之一，不但翻唱的人難以數(shù)計，更平均每隔幾年就要再流行一次，最近的一次是丹佛格伯(Dan Fogelberg )在1990年推出的版本。而在我國，它也被翻譯成國語歌曲雨的旋律，同樣也是三十多年以來始終大 受歡迎。Rhythm of the Rai nListe n to the rhythm of the falli ng rain,Telli ng me just what a fool I've bee n.I wish that it would go and let
