<1. 歌手 & 背景介绍>
Boyzone(男孩地带),由Ronan、Stephen、Shane、Mike和Keith五人组成。
1993年,通过在爱尔兰全国的选拔,五位帅气的小伙子在爱尔兰首都都柏林组成了 Boyzone演唱组。他们靠翻唱很快走红,94年,第一支单曲《Love Me For A Reason》获得了爱尔兰榜的亚军。随后于95年,他们发行了第一张专辑《Said And Done》。96年,他们的第二张专辑《A Different Beat》发行,其中翻唱老牌英国乐队Bee Gees的歌曲《Words》 于96年11月拿到了他们的首个排行榜冠军,Boyzone成为当红偶像组合。97年, 他们又发行了第三张专辑《Where We Belong》, 其中的歌曲《Picture Of You》被用作电影《Mr Bean》(《憨豆先生》)的主题歌。99年,Boyzone的新歌加精选专辑《By Request》发行,先于专辑发行的单曲《No Matter What》大获成功,击败《My Heart Will Go On》等歌曲获得英国全年总冠军。他们还在U2的新歌《The Sweetest Thing》的Music Video中客串了一把。最近,关于Boyzone解散的传闻不断,Ronan、Stephen、Mike等成员也相继出了自己的歌曲和专辑;但据Ronan说, 成员们只是暂时自己发展,不久Boyzone还会一起唱歌, 他们的歌迷可以放心了。
Boyzone是爱尔兰最成功的偶像组合,也是Take That后欧洲最成功的男孩组合。他们在爱尔兰榜上有六首冠军单曲, 超过B*Witched的四首和U2的三首而名列第一。
新千年带给Boyzone的并不是更多的荣誉, 他们的成员相继单飞了,这使的这个曾经创造过辉煌的乐队光芒渐失,并且开始默默地陨落了。不过他们留下的那些脍炙人口的作品不会被人们忘记的。
<2. 歌词>
It's amazing(1) how you can
speak right to(2) my heart
Without saying a word you can
light up the dark
Try as I may I can never explain(3)
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face
lets me know that you need me
There's a truth(4) in your eyes
saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says
you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best
when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear
people talking out loud
But when you hold me near
You drown out(5) the crowd
Try as they may they can never define(6)
What's been said between
your heart and mine
The smile on your face
lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand
says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best when you say
nothing at all
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face
the truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand let's me know that's you baby
