美國另類搖滾樂團〔Nada Surf〕與英國電子流行樂團〔OMD〕美國龐克搖滾樂團〔狂野夏綠蒂〕的交集──〔If You leave／卿若離去〕

If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our seperate ways
We always had time on our side
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every moment
We've got to, we've gotta make it last
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I need you now like i needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
If you leave i wont cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, no dont look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Our time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now you've gotta
You've gotta say you will
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I need you now like i needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday, someday
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I need you now like i needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
Oh, if you leave
Oh, if you leave
Oh, if you leave (oh tell me now you won't leave)
Oh, if you leave (oh tell me now you won't leave)
Please don't leave

Nada Surf是個１９９２年成立的美國另類團體
雖然商業成績並沒特別出色　不過作品頗獲好評
２００４年他們為美國福斯電視台戲劇〔The O.C.〕原聲帶〔Music from The O.C. :Mix 2〕翻唱了英國電子流行樂團OMD於１９８６年為賣座愛情喜劇〔Pretty in Pink／紅粉佳人〕獻唱的插曲〔If You leave／卿若離去〕（US＃４　UK＃４８）
Nada Surf將OMD這首８０年代重節拍名曲改成節奏舒緩　唱法慵懶輕柔的另類抒情版
差別相當大　不過仍舊迷人
樂風不同 卻各有各的風味
推薦給各位
