這首歌很有爆發力,光聽片頭副歌就覺得熱血沸騰。
會知道這首歌是來自於卡通「課長王子」的片頭曲。
萎靡的樂團成員,撐開眼瞼後不停轉動眼球;
時尚伸展舞台秀,披著紫色長髮的上空扭曲綠人,
最後結束是在紅色背景裡飛天的魟魚(這是一種求偶的動作)……
(Youtube - Kacho Oji - Opening)
這種片頭畫風不知怎麼形容,感覺非常歇斯底里。
作者用這種狂野的視覺設定抓住觀眾的目光,十分大膽。
我看有人有在youtube放吉他教學影片,是首Am調的金屬樂。
速度是209(60表一秒有一拍,180是一秒有3拍,大概是這種速度),實在很可怕。
練完能跟上應該只有爽而已吧我想。
很意外的是點閱聆聽的人數不超過十萬,
可想而知,國內是沒有市場的了。
至於這首歌的主唱兼吉他手John Sykes,
我只能說,生在百家爭嗚的搖滾年代,
能同時俱備沙啞歌喉的爆發力與豪放樂句的創作力,
卻不能夠像Slash那般能夠全球知名,實在可惜。
就寫給與我有相同共嗚的愛好者吧!

後記:
一、 Warning與Caution這兩種在中文都是警告。
不過Warning是指對人的傷害,而Caution是指對物品的損失;
Warning是指預警某物會對你嚴重傷害,而Caution是指希望你多點注意避免問題發生。
看起來Warning是嚴重多了。

二、Propose someone跟Propose to someone的意思差真多。
Propose someone是指推薦人選;Propose to someone是指向某人求婚。
這首歌是越壞越愛的意思?

三、who knows跟who's to know有點不一樣,儘管在中文都是「誰知道?」或「誰會知道?」
舉例:
1. who's to know比較像對複雜以至無解的問題說不知道。
有時候這個問題的答案是被不法的作法消滅掉的,其它人就不知道了。
例:「我們把這証據毀掉吧!誰會知道?(who's to know)」
2. who knows就是指單純你跟我都不知道問題的答案,也許別人知道。
而答者當下真的不知道,即時反應「誰知道啊?」
例:「他說什麼?」「誰知道?(who knows)」
