Bob Marley被譽為雷鬼(Reggae)音樂教父,1945年在牙買加出生,因為成長環境十分貧困,使他對政治、信仰、社會、經濟甚至國際情勢都有獨到深刻的體會。憑藉著對音樂的敏感度和驚人的才華,他把熱情輕快的雷鬼音樂推向國際。他的音樂充滿批判和抗議,但也表達對自由、和平、人權、平等、關懷,及真愛的期盼。雖然Bob Marley只活了36年,從1969出版第一張專輯,到1981因癌症去世,他留下許多膾炙人口的作品。
他最有名的歌包括《Get Up, Stand Up》(起來,為你的權力奮鬥),近年來已儼然成為反戰團體的國歌;《I Shot The Sheriff》(我射殺警長),敘述為了自衛,射殺官員的故事,後來被Eric Clapton翻唱;《No Woman, No Cry》(女人不再哭泣)是為女權運動發聲的名曲,這首歌在70年代由女歌手Joan Baez(瓊.拜耶)唱紅;還有《One Love》(一份愛),更是為苦悶的人民所作的自由樂章。 在他生日的今天,再次回味他的音樂…… 《One Love》 One love, one heart Let's get together and feel all right Hear the children crying (One love) Hear the children crying (One heart) Sayin', "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right." Sayin', "Let's get together and feel all right." Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One love) There is one question I'd really love to ask (One heart) Is there a place for the hopeless sinner Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own? Believe me One love, one heart Let's get together and feel all right As it was in the beginning (One love) So shall it be in the end (One heart) Alright, "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right." "Let's get together and feel all right." One more thing Let's get together to fight this Holy Armageddon (One love) So when the Man comes there will be no, no doom (One song) Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation Sayin', "One love, one heart Let's get together and feel all right." I'm pleading to mankind (One love) Oh, Lord (One heart) Whoa. "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right." Let's get together and feel all right. 《Get Up, Stand Up》 Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights! Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights! Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights! Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight! Preacher-man, don't tell me, Heaven is under the earth. I know you don't know What life is really worth. It's not all that glitters is gold; 'Alf the story has never been told: So now you see the light, eh! Stand up for your rights. Come on! Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights! Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight! Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights! Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight! Most people think, Great God will come from the skies, Take away everything And make everybody feel high. But if you know what life is worth, You will look for yours on earth: And now you see the light, You stand up for your rights. Jah! Get up, stand up! (Jah, Jah!) Stand up for your rights! (Oh-hoo!) Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!) Don't give up the fight! (Life is your right!) Get up, stand up! (So we can't give up the fight!) Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!) Get up, stand up! (Keep on struggling on!) Don't give up the fight! (Yeah!) We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game - Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord. We know when we understand: Almighty God is a living man. You can fool some people sometimes, But you can't fool all the people all the time. So now we see the light (What you gonna do?), We gonna stand up for our rights! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) So you better: Get up, stand up! (In the morning! Git it up!) Stand up for your rights! (Stand up for our rights!) Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight! (Don't give it up, don't give it up!) Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!) Stand up for your rights! (Get up, stand up!) Get up, stand up! ( ... ) Don't give up the fight! (Get up, stand up!) Get up, stand up! ( ... ) Stand up for your rights! Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight! |
