Van Halen-When It's Love

    上週介紹在The Top 100 Alternative Rock Artist 「百大另類搖滾藝人排行榜」獲得冠軍的合唱團Foo Fighters，他們在The Top 100 Mainstream Rock Artist 「百大主流搖滾藝人排行榜」則獲得第12名，那麼正統的主流搖滾冠軍是何許人呢?

  是Van Halen。

  去年(2020)10月初 Van Halen的主唱吉他手Edward Van Halen 去世時曾經在本部落格介紹過Van Halen這個重搖滾樂團Hard-rock band。

  Edward Lodewijk Van Halen 1955年出生於荷蘭，他是Van Halen的主唱吉他手，1972年與哥哥(鼓手)Alex Van Halen，貝斯手Mark Stone，主唱David Lee Roth一同創立這個樂團，在搖滾樂界Edward Van Halen被認定為最棒的吉他手之一 。

    Alex 與 Eddie兄弟 1964年組了一個叫Broken Combs的樂團，經過一段時間的變遷才改名Van Halen，Van Halen樂團 1978年推出第一張同名專輯後開始走紅。

  Van Halen作品很多，是歷年暢銷歌星及樂團排行榜第176名的重搖滾樂團，他們在Billboard Hot 100排行榜名次最好的歌是1984年連續五周獲得冠軍的 "Jump"。而在Billboard Mainstream Rock「主流搖滾排行榜」Van Halen有一首1988年七月初推出的 "When It’s Love" 獲得過冠軍(Hot 100榜第5名)。

When It's Love

Songwriters: Alex Van Halen / Edward Van Halen / Sammy Hagar / Michael

 

AnthonyEverybody's lookin' for somethin'

Somethin' to fill in the holes

We think a lot but don't talk much about it

'Til things get out of control

Oh, how do I know when it's love

I can't tell you but it lasts forever

How does it feel when it's love

It's just something you feel together

When it's love

You look at every face in a crowd

Some shine and some keep you guessin'

Waiting for someone to come into focus

Teach you your final love lesson

How do I know when it's love

I can't tell you but it lasts forever

How does it feel when it's love

It's just something you feel together

Oh oh oh oh

Oh when it's love

Oh oh oh oh

You can feel it yeah

Oh oh oh oh

Nothing's missing, yeah

Oh oh oh oh

Yeah, you can feel it

Oh oh oh oh

Oh when it's love

Oh oh oh oh

Nothing's missing

How do I know when it's love

I can't tell you but it lasts forever

Uh, how does it feel when it's love

It's just something you feel together

Hey, how do I know when it's love

I can't tell you but it lasts forever

When it's love

Uh, when it's love

Hey it lasts forever

(Na, na, na, na, na) when it's love

(Na, na, na, na, na)

(Na, na, na, na, na)

(Na, na, na, na, na) give it up

We're gonna feel this thing together (na, na, na, na, na)

When it's love, oh (na, na, na, na, na)
