[歌] Under Pressure：無國界的跳Tone組合

July 26th, 2011 · No Comments · [歌]

你知道什麼是「登登登」嘛？

周星馳的電影迷大概會說：

不錯的嘗試，但是錯！！！

這邊的「登登登」是落建生髮液廣告，雖然距今已經有幾年歷史，但我相信大家一定看過這個廣告。廣告的配音「登登登」還有廣告的主角，也算是當年熱門廣告之一，回憶馬上浮上心頭。

(叫人懷念的落建廣告 XD)

但直到幾年後，我才知道原來這廣告讓人難忘的配樂「登登登」居然是改編自70-80年代紅極一時「皇后合唱團」(Queen)的歌曲。搖滾樂團與生髮水？實在是太跳Tone的組合！但就像一開始不知道落建生髮液廣告曲來源的我，看廣告時完全沒有違合感，還覺得配樂與廣告配合的天衣無縫，真不知道作這支廣告的創意是從那邊天外飛來一筆想到用這首歌來作配樂，實在是太有材了！

更妙的是，後來仔細研究才發現Queen這首歌的歌名叫作「Under Pressure」。是1981年與David Bowie合作的作品，看到歌名時不禁讓我笑了出來，落建生髮液的廣告的劇情配上「Under Pressure」的歌名實在是太切題了，這廣告創意不但有材，還得是搖滾憤青才有辦法想到把這兩個南轅北徹的元素湊合在一起的超妙創意。

連到現在落建的網站還是用這首歌的配樂。　XD

事實上「Under Pressure」的歌詞跟生髮液八竿子勾不著關係，如果Freddie Mercury天堂有知，不知道會不會跑下來人間找落建生髮液的廣告創意算帳咧？:P

但這首歌其實是首好歌，更不用說前奏的部份，跟大家分享！

Mm ba ba de
Um bum ba de
Um bu bu bum da de
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure – that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Um ba ba be
Um ba ba be
De day da
Ee day da – that’s o.k.
It’s the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming ‘Let me out’
Pray tomorrow – gets me higher
Pressure on people – people on streets
Day day de mm hm
Da da da ba ba
O.k.
Chippin’ around – kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee do ba be
Ee da ba ba ba
Um bo bo
Be lap
People on streets – ee da de da de
People on streets – ee da de da de da de da
It’s the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming ‘Let me out’
Pray tomorrow – gets me higher high high
Pressure on people – people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don’t work
Keep coming up with love
but it’s so slashed and torn
Why – why – why ?
Love love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we’re cracking
Can’t we give ourselves one more chance
Why can’t we give love that one more chance
Why can’t we give love give love give love give love
give love give love give love give love give love
‘Cause love’s such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
