六,七十年代的世界是一個令人興奮的世界。這個時代充滿了學生運動,反戰運動,大麻,嬉皮士,反抗,對精神自由的憧憬和奮鬥,並且產生了無數偉大的搖滾歌星,批頭四,滾石,The Animals, The Kinks等等,都出自於這個時代,並且來自歐洲大陸的核心英國。
在這些樂隊中,pinkfloyd算是成名較晚的,不過這個樂隊到今天仍然存在,當然核心人物早就九易其人,而且鼎盛時期也早已成為昨日黃花。不過,一個藝術家或者樂隊隻要有一件好作品,就足夠流芳百世。Pink Floyd最後的傳世之作,是以“The Wall“為名的唱片,其中我最喜歡的一首歌就是"hey you"
Hey you, Out there in the cold, Getting lonely, getting old, Can you feel me? Hey you, Standing in the aisles, Dream Theater With itchy feet and fading smile, Can you feel me? Hey you, Don't help them to bury the light. Don't give in without a fight. Hey you, Out there on your own, Sitting naked by the phone, Would you touch me? Hey you, With your ear against the wall, Waiting for someone to call out, Would you touch me? Hey you, Open your heart, i'm coming home. But it was only fantasy. The wall was too high, as you can see. No matter how he tried he could not break free. And the worms ate into his brain. Hey you, Out there on the road, Always doing what you're told, Can you help me? Hey you, Out there beyond the wall, Breaking bottles in the hall, Can you help me? Hey you, Don't tell me there's no hope at all. Together we stand, divided we fall.
