No Woman, No Cry

NO WOMEN,NO CRY 不!女人不要哭。沒有女人,男人不要哭。 About Bob Marley 雷鬼教父Bob Marley 1945年4月6日出生於牙買加,是英國海軍白人軍官和黑人女僕的兒子..作為混血兒的他,從小在貧民窟裡中長大,在那貧民窟中渡過了他的童年...艱難的生活使他深知要如何做一平凡人,所以,即使後來他的音樂遍佈全球,他也從不以大明星自居。 1964年Marley開始了他的演藝生涯,三年後 (1964) 他有了自己的The Warlers(哭泣者)樂隊...他的音樂與熱情很快贏得了牙買加音樂界的支持。不久他的單曲唱片"我仍在哭泣"以及"孤獨是一種痛"連續幾個月打入了牙買加的排行榜,並對歐洲樂壇產生影響..1972年Marley推出了專輯"點燃"(Catch A Fire)和"燃燒"(Burning)這引起當時評論界和藝術界的一致好評,也使他和他的樂隊聲譽更加如日中天...1975那年,Marley的世界巡迴演唱,更是讓他的音樂遍及全球,數百萬人都在為Marley的成功而歡呼。 1981年5月11日Marley死於癌症,僅得年36歲。在短短的20年中,Marley和"哭泣者樂隊"出版了多張專輯..如"點燃"和"燃燒"都是十分暢銷的唱片。除此之外還包括歌頌他所敬仰的"法斯特法理教"的音樂。1984年,他最後的專題"傳說"(Legend)發行。Marley的一生是快樂的..他同時也把快樂帶給了許多人,牙買加政府為了紀念他的成就,將他的生日明訂為牙買加的一個國定節日。 No Women,No Cry則是"婦女解放運動研習營"的必唱名曲,這首在70年代就讓民權女歌手Joan Baez發揚光大而百唱不厭,80年代又被德國舞曲天皇Boney M再度唱紅...你現在聽到的就是Boney M翻唱的這個版本。幾十年來這個世界有了巨大的變化,卻依然繼續唱著這個"女人不要哭,女人站起來,凡事會好轉(Everything's gonna be all right!)這樣的勵志故事...      NO WOMEN, NO CRY - BONEY M.   LYRICS No woman no cry,no woman no cry Say,say,said I remember when we used to sit In a government yard in Trenchtown Obba,obba,serving the hypocrites As the would mingle with the good people we meet Good friends we have,oh,good friends we've lost Along the way In this great future You can't forget your past So dry your tears,I say No woman no cry,no woman no cry Little darling,don't shed no tears,no woman no cry Say,say,said I remember when we use to sit In the government yard in Trenchtown And then Georgie would make the fire lights As it was,log would burnin' through the nights Then we would cook cornmeal porridge Of which I'll share with you My feet is my only carriage So I've got to push on thru Oh,while I'm gone Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright No woman no cry,no,no woman no cry Oh,my little sister Don't shed no tears No woman no cry I remember when we use to sit In the government yard in Trenchtown And then Georgie would make the fire lights As it was,log would burnin' through the nights Then we would cook cornmeal porridge Of which I'll share with you My feet is my only carriage So I've got to push on thru Oh,while I'm gone No woman no cry,no,no woman no cry Oh,my little darlin' Don't shed no tears No woman no cry,No woman no cry Oh my Little darlin',don't shed no tears No woman no cry Little sister,don't shed no tears No woman no cry No woman no cry,no woman no cry
