“I just want you to know who I am”这是一个来自天使的声音。一个爱上了凡间女子,却又不能感受到一个凡人的温暖和苦恼的天使痛苦的声音。―――这就是在1998年获得巨大成功的影片《天使之城》的主题曲。这是一个被各种电影.小说重复了无数次的故事。可是,却仍然被演绎得美轮美奂―――当然这和Goo Goo Dolls为这部电影所写的乐曲有莫大的关系。
1985年,主唱兼吉他手John Rzeznil ,他的表哥Robby Takac , 以及鼓手George Tutusla,在美国纽约水牛城组成T—X摇滚团体Goo Goo Dolls.当时出的专辑反响一般,后来幸逢电影《天使之城》邀请他们为其原声带写作歌曲,John Rzeznik所谱写演唱的《Iris(希腊文,虹彩)》一曲,不仅为他们赢得1999年第41届格莱美音乐奖“年度唱片”、“最佳流行演唱团体”、“年度歌曲”等三项大奖提名,而且将他们的乐坛声望与唱片销量提携到顶端,<Iris>一曲的制作人Rob Cavallo 更以此获得“年度最佳制作”大奖。Goo Goo Dolls这才开始在乐坛上树立自己的地位,也找到了适合自己的Pop Rock风格。
《Iris》堪称流行摇滚音乐作品十年一遇的好音乐,音乐起始是清脆急促的吉他独奏,John Rzeznik饱含沧桑的低沉嗓音发出了对世事、对爱情满腹的疑问,而曲到中段,突然高昂,似乎疑问已经转为了真挚的誓言,“即使万物毁灭,我也只要你知道我是谁!”旋律的优美和主唱声线的粗犷形成了鲜明的对比,而正因为如此,此首乐曲脱离了甜腻情歌的范畴,成了百听不厌的超级经典。

歌词:
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't wanna go home right now
And all I could taste is this moment
And all I can breath is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's mad to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am |
