Stars是英国最成功的灵歌风格的流行乐队之一SimplyRed的歌曲。SimplyRed乐队于1984年初在曼彻斯特成立,领袖人物是MickHucknall,正是他的高亢嗓音使得乐队给人一种真正的灵歌感觉,并最终使乐队同一些仅仅称得上熟练的灵歌乐队区别开来。
作为SimplyRed的主唱,MickHucknall那一头火红的卷发几乎成为了乐队的标志。还在上中学的时候,性格内向的MickHucknall就已经开始迷恋音乐了,而一头红发总是给他惹麻烦,并成为同学们的笑柄。于是,这个其貌不扬的小伙子暗下决心,一定要用音乐成功地回击那些无聊的偏见。
1991年9月SimplyRed推出第四张专辑《Star》的时候,贝司手TonyBowers和鼓手ChrisJoyce都已离开乐队,ShaunWard(bass)和Gota(drums)加入乐队,新的萨克斯管吹奏者IanKirkham则成为SimplyRed的永久成员。
《Stars》成为SimplyRed最出色,同时也是最成功的专辑,专辑中产生了所首热门歌曲-"Star","SomethingGotMeStarted","Wonderland","ThrillMe","ForYourBabies"等,此专辑获得了英国最佳专辑奖,成为英国1991年销量最高的唱片,并在全世界销售出了850万张。
anyone who ever held you
would tell you the way i'm feeling
anyone who ever wanted you
would try to tell you what i feel inside
the only thing i ever wanted
was the feeling that you ain't faking
the only one you ever thought about
wait a minute can't you see that
i wanna fall from the stars
i wanna fall from the stars
i wanna fall from the stars
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms,
and i, i feel ya
i hope you comprehend
i hope you comprehend
i hope you comprehend
i hope you comprehend
for the man who tried to hurt you
he's explaining the way i'm feeling
for all the jealousy i caused you
states the reason why i'm trying to hide
as for all the things you taught me
it sends my future into clearer dimensions
you'll never know how much you hurt me
you'll never know how much you hurt me
stay a minute can't you see that
straight into your arms
straight into your arms
straight into your arms
i, i feel ya
i, i feel ya
i, i feel ya
too many hearts are broken
a lover's promise never came with a maybe
so many words are left unspoken
the silent voices are driving me crazy
after all the pain you caused me
making up could never be your intention
stay can't you see that
