創作背景
這首"Lemon Tree"是寫一位大男孩在某個下著太陽(yang)雨的星期天下午等著他(ta)的女朋友(you),歌曲將等人(ren)時的焦慮不安及胡思(si)亂想的心情表現得淋(lin)漓盡致。
Fool's Garden幾乎可(ke)以和"Lemon Tree"劃(hua)等號,從最初組隊到由此曲走紅,Fool's Garden已在地下(xia)摸爬滾打(da)了5年,其貌不揚的他們直到德國電臺聽(ting)眾紛(fen)紛(fen)點(dian)播"Lemon Tree"時才(cai)為人所知。1996年這(zhe)首傳唱至今的經典歌曲讓全(quan)世界(jie)記住(zhu)了這(zhe)個來自德國的年輕樂隊。然(ran)而(er)也(ye)正是"Lemon Tree"所創(chuang)造的輝煌巔峰將Fool's Garden推(tui)入了已有無(wu)數前(qian)車之鑒的"One Hit Wonder"的尷(gan)尬(ga)境地,重蹈覆轍的他們之后(hou)音樂再也(ye)未能超(chao)越(yue)"Lemon Tree"這(zhe)首蜚聲(sheng)全(quan)球的紅曲而(er)漸漸地無(wu)人問津了。
英文歌詞
I'm sitting here in a boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I'm driving around in my car
I'm driving too fast I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I wonder how I wonder why
Yesterday you told me about the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head up and down
.....
