恰恰相反，中文歌曲里面歌词是弱项，连外国歌曲的脚趾头都赶不上。
甲壳虫的歌词棒是公认的,比如when I am sixty-four。U2的也不说了。随便举几个其
他人的例子：
Mike & The Mechanics的The living Years，悔恨他没有在父亲活着的时候说出心里的
话：
I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
Ugly Kids Joe的Cats In The Cradle,作者想象他儿子长大的情景，一个普通的美国人
整日为了生计奔波，没时间陪儿子玩。但是其实作者Harry Chapin39岁的时候死于车祸
，没来得及看到他的儿子长大：
My child arrived just the other day;
Came to the world in the usually way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay.
He learned to walk while I was away.
He was talking before I knew it.
And as he grew he said,
"I'm gonna be like you, Dad.
You know I'm gonna be like you."
Chorus:
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man on the moon.
"When you comin' home?"
"Son, I don't know when.
We'll get together then.
I've long since retired, my son's moved away.
I called him up just the other day.
"I'd like to see you, if you don't mind."
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time.
You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu,
But it's sure nice talkin' to you, Dad.
It's been sure nice talkin' to you."
Chorus
String的fragile, 歌词是不是让你想起了某年的天安门？
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star, like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
Rolling Stones的:
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch
As tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As tears go by
情爱的歌外国更是远胜。文艺一点比如,直白的比如Aerosmith的 ：It must
have been love but it's over now。 It's where the water flows, it's where
the wind blows 是不是能听出随风而逝逐水而流的惆怅。那些港台歌曲做作的填词和
无病呻吟哪里有可比性。

切，实在看不出这个歌词有什么地方可以打动人
除了感觉到晦涩和精神空虚
歌词和意境分明是抄袭罗大佑的未来的主人翁
这种精神幻灭看透世情类的，比老狼的这种歌好的外国歌多的是，随便来几个，无论从
旋律到内容都能碾压你：
Green Day的Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Red Hot Chili Peppers 的Under the Bridge
Dire Straits的:
-------------------------
I'm a soldier of freedom in the army of man
We are the chosen, we're the partisan
The cause it is noble and the cause it is just
We are ready to pay with our lives if we must
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
I'm a soldier of fortune, I'm a dog of war
And we don't give a damn who the killing is for
It's the same old story with a different name
Death or glory, it's the killing game
Nothing gonna stop them as the day follows the night
Right becomes wrong, the left becomes the right
And they sing as they march with their flags unfurled
Today in the mountains, tomorrow the world
Everlast的What It's Like ：
-----------------------------
We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin for your change
the hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange
he asks a man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes
get a job you fucking slob is all he replied.
God forbid you ever had to walk mile in his shoes
cos then you really might know what its like to sing the blues
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom who said he was in love
he said don't worry bout a thing baby doll, I'm the man you've been dreamin
of
but 3 months later he say he wont date her or return her calls
and she swear 'god damn if I find that man Im cutting off his balls'
then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walking through the
door
they call her a killer and they call her a sinner and they call her a whore
I've seen a rich man beg, Iv seen a good man sin, Iv seen a tough man cry
I've seen a loser win and a sad man grin I heard an honest man lie
I've seen the good side of bad and the down side of up and everything
between
I licked the silver spoon, drank from the golden cup and smoked the finest
green
I Stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke their
hearts
you know where it is yo, it usually depends on where you start.

<再见青春>能比得上甲壳虫的昨天么？比得上滚石的as tears go by 么。汪峰算是有
才的，能唱能写，但这也是矬子里拔大个而已。
坦白说，国内的歌词其实是戴着镣铐跳舞。曾几何时国内的官老爷们一见到摇滚的在台
上就心惊胆战，稍微和现实联系起来可能就过不了评审。
有比较才有鉴别，上youtube很容易找到我说得这些歌。但你就是不愿意比，自说自话
，什么“你说的这些歌根本没兴趣看"，充分暴露了你井底之蛙夜郎自大的本质。当年
大清也是这样对洋枪洋炮这样不屑一顾的。但现在你去问通俗音乐界，有几个有底气敢
瞧不起我以上列举的这些歌曲的。
你还提到了罗大佑，我也觉得他算不错的。但你问他一个搞民谣的敢不敢蔑视鲍勃迪伦
和保罗西蒙。他的《鹿港小镇》就明显是抄鲍勃迪伦《Girl From The North Country
》呢。
