英國流行雙人組〔Waterfront／水濱〕──美國成人抒情榜亞軍──描述與未成年少女的苦戀之作──〔Cry／哭泣〕




Just let me wipe the tears away
Don?t mean to act surprised
If it?s all right I?d like to stay, yeah

I know that you are not a child
But there?s one thing that I love about you
Your style
Cry, please don?t cry
Cry, please don?t cry

I know you?re just sixteen
But looking all of twenty-one
(Twenty-one, you?ll be married with a gun)
Daddy would go to jail for you
If he thought you were having the wrong sort of fun

I know that you are not a child
But there?s just one thing I love about you
Your style
Cry, please don?t cry
Cry, please don?t cry

The moment that you?ve gone
You know that they will talk
But they?re wrong, and it makes me happy
Even when you?ve gone, you know I?ll carry on
?Cos I?m strong, and it makes me happy

I know that you are not a child
But there?s one thing that I love about you
Your style
Don?t cry, please don?t cry
Cry, please don?t cry

(sax solo)

Cry, please don?t cry
Cry, please don?t cry
Cry, please don?t cry
Cry, please don?t cry
(Cry, cry, cry?)

FADE:
Cry, please don?t cry

１９８９年　他們推出首張同名專輯

第一支單曲是〔Cry／哭泣〕

這是首旋律討好　節奏中板的流行歌曲

Waterfront以白人靈魂唱腔描述某個年輕男子與一位１６歲少女苦戀的故事

此曲拿到英國＃１７　美國＃１０（成人抒情榜亞軍）
〔Cry〕是個人剛接觸歐美流行樂初期聽過的作品

記憶深刻　雖然當時我根本不曉得它在唱什麼
只當成一首普通的失戀情歌
不過〔Cry〕的確相當動聽
