最近一直聽歆楷在彈這首經典西洋老歌
又是一首經典的acoustic guitar work


這首令人十分舒服又百聽不厭的和弦動線
並歌詞中情人間不需要言語即可傳達的"我愛你"
竟然是重金屬搖滾樂團所創作出來的
收錄在極限(Extreme)樂團1990年所發行的專輯

主唱Gary Cherone和吉他手Nuno Bettencourt兩人
用抒情的雙人真假音合聲
把這首歌推上隔年的「美國告示板百大音樂」(U.S. Billboard Hot 100)的第一名
也在許多80~90年代的人心中刻下深刻的記號

跟大家一起分享這首經典歌曲 - More than words.



中英歌詞對照請點我

Saying "I love you"
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words

Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
