(2010-01-11 20:16:58) 下一個


"Evacuate the Dancefloor" is a song by the German group Cascada from their third studio album of the same name, Evacuate the Dancefloor (2009). The song features a guest rap from German rapper Carlprit and was released as the album's lead single in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2009 by All Around the World and debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart the week of July 5, 2009. It also became the act's third number-one single on Billboard's Hot Dance Airplay chart and second top forty hit on the Billboard Hot 100, following 2006's "Everytime We Touch". The song has so far peaked at number two in Ireland and New Zealand.

Cascada是以其主唱Natalie Horler的藝名命名的團體,Cascada的成員有三位,除了DJ/製作人Yanou(真名:Yann Peifer)和DJ Manian(真名:Manuel Reuter)為整個計畫努力外,拋頭露麵的,或者說站在台前的是Natalie Horler。Natalie Horler是個來自英格蘭的女孩,現在她住在科隆(德國)。早年她在她第一次踏進了音樂領域時,很快她發現她的一些與眾不同的天賦,首先她獨特的聲音先打開一些專業錄音室的門,德國的唱片公司很快對她產生了興趣,於是唱片製作人帶著一些東西. 他們在一起呆了幾天,嘗試不同風格的音樂工作室時,很快他們製作了一些作品在商業電臺中播出,很快至榜首並獲得圓滿成功!

美國人的音樂品味一向毋庸置疑,畢竟世界上近 60% 的音樂都是起源於這個國家。但是電子音樂和舞曲的時候就不一樣,可以說舞曲的家鄉是在歐洲,而非美洲,有無數的經典舞曲風靡歐洲大陸卻未能成為美國電臺熱播的歌曲。所以當Billboard的hot 100上出現一首舞曲的時候,就算得上是一種奇跡。2006年初,有一首舞曲《Everytime We Touch》卻在Billboard的排行榜上一路竄升,成績斐然!這首舞曲由三人舞曲組合Cascada翻唱自Maggie Reilly同名單曲,發表於2005年底。Cascada為人熟知的作品還有《Miracle》、《Bad Boy》、《How Do You Do!》以及無數的混音作品。最新的單曲《How Do You Do!》翻唱自著名樂隊Roxette1992年的同名單曲,發表於2005年11月19日。2006年2月21日,他們的首張專輯《Everytime We Touch》發行。



Evacuate the Dancefloor

(Oh)
Turn up the music
Let´s get out on the floor
I like to move it
Come and give me some more

Watch me getting physical
Out of control, Ah
There’s people watching me, Ah
I never miss a beat

Still the night, kill the lights
Feel it under your skin
Time is right, keep it tight
‘Cause it’s pulling you in

Wrap it up you can’t stop
‘Cause it feels like an overdose
(feels like an overdose)

Oh, oh
Evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh
I’m infected by the sound
Oh, oh
Stop this beat is killing me
Hey Dr. DJ let the music take me underground

(Everybody in the club)
Oh, oh
Evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh
I’m infected by the sound
(Everybody in the club)
Oh, oh
Stop this beat is killing me
Hey Dr. DJ come burn this place right down to the ground

(Oh)
My body’s aching
System overload
Temperature’s rising
I’m about to explode

Watch me I’m intoxicated
Taking the show, Ah
It`s got me hypnotized, Ah
Everybody step aside

Still the night, kill the lights
Feel it under your skin
Time is right, keep it tight
‘Cause it’s pulling you in

Wrap it up you can’t stop
‘Cause it feels like an overdose
(feels like an overdose)

Oh, oh
Evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh
I’m infected by the sound
Oh, oh
Stop this beat is killing me
Hey Dr. DJ let the music take me underground

(Everybody in the club)
Oh, oh
Evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh
I’m infected by the sound
(Everybody in the club)
Oh, oh
Stop this beat is killing me
Hey Dr. DJ come burn this place right down to the ground

Come on and evacuate
Feel the club is heating up
Move on and accelerate
Push it to the top
Come on and evacuate
Feel the club is heating up
Move on and accelerate
You don’t have to be afraid

Now guess who’s back with a brand new track?
They got everybody in the club going mad
So everybody in the back
Get your back up off the wall and just shake that thang

Go crazy
Yo lady
Yo baby
Let me see you wreck that thang
Now drop it down low, low
Let me see you take it to the dancefloor, floor

Everybody in the club
(Evacuate the dancefloor)
Everybody in the club
(I’m infected by the sound)

Everybody in the club
(Stop this beat is killing me)
Hey Dr. DJ let the music take me underground

Oh, oh
Evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh
I’m infected by the sound
Oh, oh
Stop this beat is killing me
Hey Dr. DJ let the music take me underground

(Everybody in the club)
Oh, oh
Evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh
I’m infected by the sound
(Everybody in the club)
Oh, oh
Stop this beat is killing me
Hey Dr. DJ come burn this place right down to the ground





Comparison to Lady Gaga

Being that "Evacuate the Dancefloor" has a new electropop sound rather than the group's regular Eurodance anthems, some critics have compared it to Lady Gaga's sound as did Digital Spy. In an interview with David Balls of Digital Spy, Horler insisted that the song was written before May 2008 stating:

I don't like the term rip-off because it's a bit negative. We started the album [in early to mid 2008] and 'Evacuate' was one of the first songs that we recorded when Lady Gaga wasn't even around. Someone told me they read on the Internet that we actually inspired her. I don't know if it's true, but that would be amazing. We've been around for a long time and we've worked hard for our success, so there's no reason for us to throw away everything that we're respected for. You do evolve and progress and we're very proud of what's come of it.
