“Welcome to Hollywood”是每一個參加《美國偶像》的選手都最渴望聽到的一句話,可是即便最后你去不了Hollywood,也用不著太沮喪,因為 “Hollywood’s Not America”。來自洛杉磯的小伙子Ferras要告訴你的就是,即使失去了成為一個明星的機會,你也并沒有失去一切。Ferras很幸運的讓自己的第一支單曲“Hollywood’s Not America”成為了2008年《美國偶像》淘汰選手時必響起的“送別歌”。專輯還沒發(fā),歌就先紅遍了整個美國。其實歌曲本身并沒有什么特別的亮點,中規(guī)中矩的美式流行搖滾,但是其流暢的旋律和被運用在美國偶像時應(yīng)景的歌詞意境相當討巧。收錄有這首《Hollywood’s Not America》的專輯《Aliens And Rainbows》2008年4月1日正式上市,封面五顏六色的相當漂亮,專輯首播主打就是這首《Hollywood’s Not America》?!?/p>
歌詞:
Born Helena Jane
With a restless soul
She moved west to California
Became a centerfold
But once you change your name
Well the pieces fall
Now she hardly recognizes herself at all
And there’s never any rain, when you want it
A hollow little game, and you’ve won it
Looking for a thrill but you’ve done it all
(Chorus)
So long, put your blue jeans back on girl
Go home
Remember Hollywood’s not America
So long put your blue jeans back on girl
Go home
Remember Hollywood’s not America
O yea
And everybody here’s
from somewhere else
You can make a million dollars, but you might lose yourself
And you can take the heat will your heart grow cold
They say acting’s just pretending, but even that gets old
And there’s never any rain, when you want it
A hollow little game, and you’ve won it
Looking for a thrill but you’ve done it all
(Chorus)
And I know what you do when
I know that you
You can be anything you want to be
(Chorus)
