創作背景
這(zhe)首"Lemon Tree"是寫一位大男孩在某個下(xia)(xia)著太陽雨的星期天下(xia)(xia)午(wu)等著他(ta)的女朋友,歌曲將等人時的焦(jiao)慮不安及胡思亂(luan)想的心情表現得淋漓(li)盡致(zhi)。
Fool's Garden幾乎可以和"Lemon Tree"劃等號(hao),從最(zui)初(chu)組隊到由此曲走(zou)紅(hong)(hong),Fool's Garden已在地下摸爬滾打了5年,其貌不揚(yang)的他們直到德國電臺聽眾(zhong)紛紛點(dian)播"Lemon Tree"時才為人所知(zhi)。1996年這首(shou)傳唱(chang)至(zhi)今的經典歌曲讓全(quan)(quan)世界記住了這個來自(zi)德國的年輕樂(le)隊。然而也正(zheng)是(shi)"Lemon Tree"所創造的輝煌(huang)巔峰將Fool's Garden推入了已有(you)無數(shu)前車之(zhi)鑒的"One Hit Wonder"的尷尬境地,重蹈(dao)覆轍的他們之(zhi)后音樂(le)再(zai)也未(wei)能超越(yue)"Lemon Tree"這首(shou)蜚聲全(quan)(quan)球的紅(hong)(hong)曲而漸(jian)漸(jian)地無人問津(jin)了。
英文歌詞
I'm sitting here in a boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I'm driving around in my car
I'm driving too fast I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I wonder how I wonder why
Yesterday you told me about the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head up and down
.....
