還有人記得 Eurovision Song Contest 嗎? 正式中文譯名不知道, 當年在香港的電視也有轉播, 大多數歐洲國家都會派代表參賽, 參與的歌手或組合都是成名人物, 絕非泛泛之輩, 歌曲都是全新的作品, 得獎的歌曲大多都十分流行, 是每年的盛事. 可能現在香港沒有轉播, 近年的得獎歌曲在香港都不大受到注目, 較受歡迎的好像只有 TATU 的得獎歌. 現在就由小弟找一些當年流行一時的得獎和參賽歌曲同大家分享, 英文歌當然優先啦!

1974年, 得獎歌 Waterloo, 由瑞典組合 Abba 主唱, 令本已在瑞典極紅的組合成為世界寵兒. Uknowzip 兄的帖子第六頁已詳盡介紹 , 我不再重複. 只選了一個片段貼上, 一個較詳盡的版本

主辦國-英國, 出動了 Olivia Newton-John 主唱 Long Live Love, 當時 ONJ 已有數支歌曲打入美國榜十大. 雖然敗於 Waterloo, 但不失為一首好歌, 是我今次向大家的推介.

Long, long live love
Love is to care, caring and sharing
Long, long live love

All the kids, like ten tin soldiers
In a row follow hand in hand
Sister Anna, carrying the banner
For the Sally Annie Band

Singing songs of praise and glory
We all learned to love their story
Good things are comin' to ya
Glory, glory, hallelujah

Long, long live love
As long as we live, living for giving
Long, long live love

On a wet day, dry day, great to be alive day
Brother takes the stand
Cymbals ringing, everybody singing
With the Sally Annie Band

Just a band of happy people
Teachin', preachin' love is equal
When you feel the spirit move ya
Glory, glory, hallelujah

Long, long live love
Love is to care, caring and sharing, long
Long live love, love, love, love, love

Oh... long, long live love
As long as we live, living for giving
Long, long live love

P.S. Olivia Newton-John 好後生, 好靚女呀!

既然AK417兄點左出泥, 就講下喱支歌. 時光倒流, 再回後四年, 1970年, 主辦國- 荷蘭, 由來自愛爾蘭代表 Dana主唱 All kinds of everything奪得冠軍寶座. 和曾介紹的 74年兩支歌曲不同, 74年兩支歌都是輕快, 熱鬧的, 有著流行曲的元素. 個人覺得 All kinds of everything 像民歌多過流行曲, 有著愛爾蘭歌曲的一貫味道. 我的至愛歌手 Chris de Burgh 也是愛爾蘭歌手.

Snowdrops and daffodils, butterflies and bees,
sailboats and fishermen, things of the sea,
wishing wells, wedding bells, early morning dew,
all kinds of everything remind me of you.

Seagulls and aeroplanes, things of the sky,
winds that go howling, breezes that sigh,
city sights, neon lights, grey skies or blue,
all kinds of everything remind me of you.

Summer time, winter time, spring and autumn too,
monday, tuesday, everyday, I think of you.

Dances, romances, things of the night,
sunshine and holidays, postcards to write.
Budding trees, autumn leaves, a snowflake or two,
all kinds of everything remind me of you.

Summer time, winter time, spring and autumn too,
seasons will never change the way that I love you.

Dances, romances, things of the night.
Sunshine and holidays, postcards to write,
budding trees, autumn leaves, a snowflake or two.
All kinds of everything remind me of you.
All kinds of everything remind me of you.

P.S.香港的陳美齡似唔似Dana, 總覺風格和唱腔有 d 似. 最近香港某健康食品X之寶用左喱做廣告歌.

多謝AK417兄, Tie A Yellow Ribbon 並非 Eurovision 歌曲, 而且在 Uknowzip兄的帖子已介紹過, 在此不談. 至於 Save Your Kisses For Me 遲些再談.

由於 Abba 奪標後好歌一首接一首, 紅遍整個地球, 所以 Eurovision Song Contest 更受注意. 在瑞典首都, 斯德哥爾摩, 舉辦的 1975 年Eurovision Song Contest, 荷蘭代表歌曲 Ding Dinge-Dong (或叫 Ding A Dong) 成為冠軍, 歌曲由荷蘭本土樂隊 Teach-in主唱. 又是一支輕快, 熱鬧的歌曲, 但歌曲稍為缺乏深度, 雖有著流行的本錢, 卻難成為經典金曲. Teach-in 在Ding Dinge-Dong 後更無以為繼, 未能步 Abba 後塵, 登入世界級殿堂.

When you feelin' alright, everything is up-tight
Try to sing a song that goes ding ding-a-dong
There will be no sorrow when you sing tomorrow
And you walk along with your ding-dang-dong

Ding-a-dong every hour, when you pick a flower
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Ding-a-dong, listen to it, maybe it's a big hit
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Sing ding-ding-dong

When you feelin' alright, everything is up-tight
Listen to sing a song that goes ding ding-a-dong
And the world looks sunny, everyone is funny
When they sing a song that goes ding-dang-dong

Ding-a-dong every hour, when you pick a flower
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Ding-a-dong, listen to it, maybe it's a big hit
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Sing ding-ding-dong

(Ding-dang-dong, ding-a-dang-dong)
When you think it's all over, they let me down
Dry your tears and forget all your sorrow
Try to smile while you say goodbye
(Ding-dong ding-dong)
Ding-dang-dong when you'll wake up tomorrow
When the sun is up in the sky

When you feelin' alright, everything is up-tight
Try to sing a song that goes ding ding-a-dong
There will be no sorrow when you'll sing tomorrow
And you walk along with your ding-dang-dong

Ding-a-dong every hour, when you pick a flower
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Ding-a-dong, listen to it, maybe it's a big hit
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone

Ding-a-dong every hour, when you pick a flower
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Ding-a-dong, listen to it, maybe it's a big hit
Even when your lover is gone, gone, gone
Sing ding-ding-dong

上文說過1975 年 Teach-in 的Ding Dinge-Dong 稍為缺乏深度, 雖有著流行的本錢, 卻難成為經典金曲. 基本上Eurovision Song Contest 重點是注重歌曲會否流行, 選出每年的 Song for Europe 都是 easy listening. 同年英國代表, The Shadows, 主唱的 Let me be the one, 也是一首不錯的流行歌曲, 緊次於冠軍歌位列第二. 當年也有不少香港的本土樂隊翻唱此曲.

Tonight (Tonight), Tonight (Tonight), Tonight (Tonight),
Tonight

Let me be the one who's lovin' you tonight
Let me be the one who really holds you tight
I'll even bring along a magic moon
Just to make you feel alright
So let me be the one who's lovin' you tonight

Let me be the one who takes you by the hand
(Let me be the one)
Let me be the one who always understands
(Let me be the one)
Everybody knows we've been good friends
But I think the time is right
So let me be the one who's lovin' you tonight

You and I could have an affair
(All you gotta do is...)
Make sweet music, go anywhere
Building highways taking us there
As long as I know you really care
Won't you show me you care?

Oh... come on
Let me be the one who's lovin' you tonight
Let me be the one who really holds you tight
I'll even bring along a magic moon
Just to make you feel alright
So let me be the one who's lovin' you tonight

Doo doo doo doo...
Won't you show me you care?

Oh... come on
Let me be the one who takes you by the hand
Let me be the one who always understands
Everybody knows we've been good friends
But I think the time is right
So let me be the one who's lovin' you tonight

Let me be the one who's lovin' you
Tonight (Tonight), Tonight (Tonight), Tonight (Tonight),
Tonight

Jet 不是 Eurovision Song Contest 的參賽歌, Paul MaCartney & The Wings 從未出席 ESC.

英國在1974年 (Olivia Newton-John 的 Long Live Love) 及 1975年 (The Shadows 的 Let me be the one) 連續兩年屈居亞軍, 終於在1976年重溫冠軍滋味, 得獎歌就是上邊 AK417兄說過 save your kisses for me. 由英國樂隊 Brotherhood Of Man 主唱 (70年代是樂隊的世界, 香港當時也是一樣, 真是潮流興夾 band). 又是一支輕鬆, 鬧哄哄, 聽一次便上口的歌. Brotherhood Of Man 雖然在奪冠後在英國持續附強勢, 但始終未能成功走入世界樂壇.

Though it hurts to go away, it's impossible to stay
But there's one thing I must say before I go:
I love you (I love you), you know
I'll be thinkin' of you in most everything I do

Now the time is movin' on and I really should be gone
But you keep me hangin' on for one more smile
I love you (I love you) all the while
With your cute little wave
Will you promise that you'll save your...

Kisses for me, save all your kisses for me
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't cry, honey, don't cry
Gonna walk out the door
But I'll soon be back for more

Kisses for me, save all your kisses for me
So long, honey, so long
Hang on, baby, hang on
Don't you dare me to stay
'Cause you know I'll have to say

That I've got to work each day and that's why I go away
But I count the seconds 'til I'm home with you
I love you (I love you), it's true
You're so cute honey, gee
Won't you save them up for me? Your...

Kisses for me, save all your kisses for me
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't cry, honey, don't cry
Gonna walk out the door
But I'll soon be back for more

Kisses for me, save all your kisses for me
So long, honey, so long
Hang on, baby, hang on
Don't you dare me to stay
'Cause you know you've got to save your

Kisses for me, save all your kisses for me
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't cry, honey, don't cry
Won't you save them for me
Even though you're only three?

p.s. 留意歌詞最後一句.

在年初二聽 Wynners 的演唱會, 溫拿也大唱七十年代英文歌, 包括此歌.
