Phil Collins -In the Air Tonight

   Phil Collins 的暢銷曲“In the air tonight”是一首被誤解的歌,那是一個流傳已久的都市傳說,某人目睹有人讓另一人淹死結果Phil Collins寫了這首歌,還邀請這人到他演唱會去講此事,害他被逮捕。這些都不是真的,然而,直到今天,仍然有人相信這個故事。Phil在訪問時說過: 當年他和妻子離婚後非常傷心,在複雜的情感下創作了這首歌,他並不在乎還談這個主題。他猜在某些方面,溺水可能是在一段關係中分開的隱喻,並且必須處理隨之而來的強烈情緒。

  Phil Collins 1951年出生於倫敦,1970年加入progressive-rock前衛搖滾樂團Genesis當鼓手,1975年升格成主唱同時還與爵士搖滾樂團Brand X在一起,1981年推出個人第一張專輯Face Value》「面值」,“In the air tonight”「今晚空中見」即是其中的單曲,在Billboar Hot 100排行榜獲得第19名,雖然名次不高,但在digital download數位下載榜得到三張白金唱片以上的佳績,後來還因獲選電視影集Miami Vice「邁阿密風雲」的插曲而於1984年重回排行榜(#102) “In the air tonight”是一首有話題的歌曲。

In the Air Tonight

LyricsPhillip David Charles Collins / Evan Kyle Indiana Rollinson

 

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
And I've been waiting for this moment, for all my life, oh lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord

Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am

Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord

Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep this silence up
No you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord
