Starship-Sara

    在Music video〈音樂影帶〉開始流行的1980年代 ，"Sara"是很成功的作品，導演Francis Delia以一個農莊遭颶風摧毀的背景，邀請主唱Mickey Thomas 及演員Rebecca De Mornay擔綱演出，給歌迷們留下了深刻的印象。

  "Sara"是搖滾樂團Starship  1986年3月15日在Billboard Hot 100排行榜獲得冠軍的一首歌，這首歌選自他們1985年底推出的專輯《Knee Deep In the Hoopla》。

         Starship原名Jefferson Starship，源自於1960年代著名的迷幻搖滾樂團Jefferson Airplane，為了避免法律上的困擾，他們最後刪除Jefferson之名改團名為Starship，主唱是Grace Slick 與Mickey Thomas。

       "Sara"是Starship繼"We Built This City"之後第二首冠軍曲，也是他們在adult contemporary〈當代成人歌曲榜〉第一首冠軍曲。這首歌雖然是Peter and Ina Wolf夫妻檔所寫，但寫的是Mickey Thomas的太太Sara (née Kendrick)。

         在"Sara"的Music video中，女演員Rebecca De Mornay飾演Sara這個角色，Thomas在歌詞中講述了美國中西部一個風暴區農場中一段關係的結束，也倒述那裏發生過的事情，Thomas 回想童年時颶風摧毀了他的家並奪走了他摯愛母親的生命…，Thomas望著Rebecca開車離他而去的黃土路，又有一團沙塵自天空吹過來。

         Jefferson Starship於1974年組成，1975年以Miracles(#3)重回歌壇，1985年改名Starship ，一共有3首歌獲得排行榜冠軍("We Built This City"、"Sara"、" Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now")，Starship是歷年暢銷歌星排行榜獲得第123名的流行搖滾樂團。

Jefferson Starship, Starship

 

Go now, don't look back, we've drawn the line

Move on, it's no good to go back in time

I'll never find another girl like you, for happy endings it takes two

We're fire and ice, the dream won't come true

Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes

Sara, Sara, no time is a good time for goodbyes

Danger in the game when the stakes are high

Branded, my heart was branded while my senses stood by

I'll never find another girl like you, for happy endings it takes two

We're fire and ice, the dream won't come true

Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes

Sara, Sara, no time is a good time, oh

Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes

Sara, Sara, no time is a good time for goodbyes

Loved me like no one has ever loved me before

(And Sara) Hurt me, no one could ever hurt me more

(And Sara) Sara, nobody loved me anymore

I'll never find another girl like you, no

We're fire and ice, and a dream

Sara

Sara, Sara no time is a good time, oh

Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes

Sara, Sara, no time is a good time, for good bye's

Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes

Sara, Sara no time like the first time

Sara, Sara

Ooh Sara, why did it, why did it, why did it all fall apart

Sara, Sara (uh Sara)

Sara
