歌词

In the year of the tiger, I won't weep and moan

Got no time for cooling heels, I've got to roam

In the year of the tiger, I'm gonna roll these bones

Gonna leave behind the heartache that I’ve known

The only love I've known has slipped away

The only love I’ve known has gone away

In the year of the tiger, I’m gonna stake my claim

Run a thousand miles beyond this house of pain

In the year of the tiger, I got my kin to save

And I'll be damned to see them suffer one more day

On a cold, cruel July

We didn't know just when the pale horse would arrive

But love alone keeps us alive

When we fear we can't go on at all

In the year of the tiger, I heard a nightmare scream

Cut above the din of every future dream

In the year of the tiger, well, you'd best believe

I am haunted by the visions that I've seen

On a cold, cruel July

We didn't know just when the pale horse would arrive

But love alone keeps us alive

When we fear we can't go on at all

Can’t go on at all

In the year of the tiger, into an ocean grave

Threw his ashes to the wind then walked away

In the year of the tiger, I got no time to waste

A resolution to keep fighting and remain

On a cold, cruel July

We didn't know just when the pale horse would arrive

But love alone keeps us alive

When we fear we can't go on at all

Can’t go on at all

In the year of the tiger

In the year of the tiger

In the year of the tiger

In the year of the tiger

今天分享一首 Myles Kennedy的《Year of the Tiger》。

新的一年的第一天，祝所有伙伴们新年快乐，一帆风顺。来首新年庆祝曲。这首歌来自Myles Kennedy2018年的同名专辑《Year of the Tiger》中的第一首曲目。这也是 Myles Kennedy首张个人专辑。之前不管他在Alter Bridge乐队里还是为Slash伴奏，他都做出来大家期待的样子。而在这张个人专辑中，他做真正意义上的自己了。这张专辑与Kennedy其他项目的硬摇滚音乐背道而驰，取而代之的是精简的布鲁斯风格。这张专辑也继承了美国引以为豪的讲故事歌手的传统。这是一张概念专辑，讲述了Kennedy父亲1974年去世的故事，那年是中国农历的虎年。乐评人对这张专辑的评价都很不错，Cryptic Rock的Vito Lanzi 说：“在这张专辑中Kennedy真正找到了自己作为一个音乐家的个性，并为自己的成就感到自豪”

这首歌描述的是他在虎年失去了父亲后，收起悲伤继续为和他一样失去亲人的家人们带来鼓励和力量的故事。前一年我们还在与病毒搏斗，希望在新的一年一切都能回归常态，希望伙伴们可以为身边的人带来支持和力量。也希望伙伴们遇到好事，像猛虎下山一样势在必得。
