歌曲《加州旅館》樂曲賞析
《加州旅館》自1977年面世開始,立即就引來很多的質(zhì)疑與批評(píng)。盡管誰也不敢夸口說自己的理解是正解版本,但歌詞中明顯的吸毒、淫亂、邪教等暗示還是引起道德衛(wèi)士的不滿,并且在美國受到宗教團(tuán)體的懷疑。不過,《加州旅館》歌曲中那成經(jīng)典的吉他旋律、詭異莫名的歌詞內(nèi)容、感人心弦的悲世情懷,使得這首《加州旅館》成為樂迷的最愛。
歌曲《加州旅館》的歌詞
On a dark desert highway
cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me intoway
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year
Any time of year
You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
she got the Mercedes benze
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys
she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain
Please bring me my wine
He said
We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
What a nice surprise
Bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling
Pink champagne on ice
And she said
We are all just prisoners here of our own device
In the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
Stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
Relax said the night man
We are programmed to receive
You can check-out any time you like
But you can never leave
歌曲《加州旅館》的創(chuàng)作背景
60年代是美國音樂界的自由創(chuàng)作時(shí)期,搖滾樂的流行成為60年代自由與反叛思想的象征,然而其盛況也逐漸造成了樂手日益糜爛的生活態(tài)度。吸毒和淫亂幾乎成了每個(gè)美國搖滾樂手在70年代走的同一條墮落之路,金錢與享樂成為了搖滾音樂在70年代的新形象。
同為音樂人的老鷹樂隊(duì)看到這樣的事實(shí),卻無能為力。樂手們已經(jīng)將這種沉迷的生活看成了是音樂界的常態(tài),搖滾樂手們周圍總充滿了漂亮的姑娘和糜爛的生活。于是,樂隊(duì)創(chuàng)作了這首《加州旅館》。
