英國歌壇巨星[佩圖拉.克拉克]──流行/軟式搖滾──[I Know a Place/我知道一個地方] Every day when the work is behind you When the shop and the store put the lock on the door Just get away where your worries wont find you If you like, Ill tell you more Ill tell you more Dont let the day get the better of you When the evening comes, theres so much to do You better put on your best and wear a smile Just come along with me a while Cause I tell you I know a place Where the music is fine, and the lights are always low I know a place Where we can go Yes, I do At the door, theres a man who will greet you Then you go downstairs to some tables and chairs Soon, Im sure, youll be tapping your feet Because the beat is the greatest there, yeah All around there are girls and boys Its a rockin place A cellar full of noise Its got an atmosphere of its own somehow You gotta come along right now! Cause I tell you I know a place Where the music is fine, and the lights are always low I know a place Where we can go, yes Oh, oh, oh, all around there are girls and boys Its a rockin place A cellar full of noise Its got an atmosphere of its own somehow Youve gotta come along right now! Cause I tell you I know a place Where the music is fine, and the lights are always low! I know a place where we can go, yes, I do! I know a place where the lights are low You will come along this place I know I know a place where we can go I know a place where the lights are low You will come along this place I know I know a place where we can go
1964年,32歲的英國歌壇巨星佩圖拉.克拉克(Petula Clark)以[Downtown/市中心]登上英國榜冠軍 美國榜冠軍,打入美國市場 被稱為‘英國(音樂)入侵第一夫人’.
1965年3月,32歲的佩圖拉克拉克乘勝追擊,推出單曲[I Know a Place/我知道一個地方](Pye UK/Warner Bros.發行) 由Tony Hatch創作,並製作成一首流行/軟式搖滾,節奏快速.
[I Know a Place]登上英國單曲榜#17 加拿大冠軍 澳大利亞#7 法國#8 德國#35 美國Billboard單曲榜#3──這是克拉克連續第二首前十名熱門曲.在美賣出75萬張. 副榜──Easy Listening榜#16 [I Know a Place]收再與單曲同名,在美國發行的第二張大碟中, Tony Hatch製作,樂評良好. 登上美國專輯榜#42(英國未入榜)
佩圖拉以此曲拿到葛萊美獎最佳當代女歌手. 1966 年,克拉克在談到[I Know a Place]時對《波士頓環球報》表示: "無論別人告訴你什麼,在美國取得成功仍然是每個跨大西洋表演者的夢想。 你為此努力。渴望它。”當[I Know a Place]幾乎和[Downtown]一樣受歡迎並且紐約科帕卡巴納俱樂部簽下了我時,我無法告訴你我是多麼欣喜若狂。”
[I Know a Place]確立克拉克在1960年代中期的模式,通常在美國比在英國更受歡迎。
