Foreigner(外国佬)
成立时间:1976年成立于美国纽约
风格划分:竟技场摇滚、流行摇滚、硬摇滚
乐队简介:Foreigner由Mick Jones(前Spooky Tooth)和Ian McDonald(前King Crimson)于1976年建立。1977年乐队甫一发行同名处女作便告成功,乐队成员在此之前虽然都不是太顺利,但是在乐队成立后却一帆风顺。吉他手Jones和主唱Lou Gramm的表现深得听众欢心,他们的创作方式也正中普通听众下怀,他们的音乐在硬摇滚的主线下强调动听的旋律和令人印象深刻的吉他riff,并经常进行换汤不换药的形式变换以保持音乐的新鲜感,从而在商业上取得了极大的成功,单曲专辑两头开花。之后他们频频参加一些大型主流摇滚乐队的演出,并迅速扩大了知名度。在接连推出两张成功的唱片之后,1982年,经过人事变动的乐队推出他们的镇宅之作《4》,这是商业成功作品的参照标准,精良细致,值得从业人员研究。之后乐队开始以较为沉稳的心态进行发展,在商业上保持了成功,甚至在主唱Lou Gramm离队后也是如此。
I Don’t Want To Live Without You
Foreigner
I find myself in a strange situation, and I don’t know how
What seemed to be an infatuation, is so different now
I can’t get by if we’re not together, ooh can’t you see
Girl I want you now and forever, close to me
I’m longing for the time, I’m longing for the day
Hoping that you will promise to be mine, and never go away
I don’t want to live without you, I don’t want to live without you
I could never live without you, live without your love
I ask myself, but there’s no explanation for the way I feel
I know I’ve reached the right destination, and I know it’s real
I’m longing for the time, I’m longing for the day
When I’ll be giving you this heart of mine, believe me when I say
I don’t want to live without you, I don’t want to live without you
I could never live without you, live without your love
No I don’t want to live without you, I don’t want to live without you
I could never live without you, live without your love
Now I don’t want to live without you, I don’t want to live without you
I could never be without you, live be your love
I don’t want to live without you, live without your love
(Live without your love) live without your love
(Live without your love) you see, I’m lost without your love
(Live without your love) oooh oh
(Live without your love) without your love...
