I'LL NEVER FALL IN LOVE AGAIN - 3/2 : Lonnie Donegan



I'LL NEVER FALL IN LOVE AGAIN
Tom Jones 的一曲, 1967年面世之後, 在英美流行樂壇被受注目, 翻唱版本接踵而來。1969年十二月, 另有同名歌曲面世, 在各國的流行樂壇同樣有驕人成績; Burt Bacharach 撰曲, Hal David 作詞, Dionne Warwick 演繹, 被視為女版的 "I'll Never Fall In Love Again"; 不過, 兩曲是全無關連的。



I'll never fall in love again - Dionne Warwick
What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
After you do, he'll never phone ya
I'll never fall in love again
Dontcha know that I'll never fall in love again?

Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So far at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
No, no, I'll never fall in love again

Ahh, out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So far at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
Dontcha know that I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again


Lonnie Donegan 1931-2002
Anthony James Donegan MBE, 1931年生於蘇格蘭 Scotland, 格拉斯哥 Glasgow, 在英格蘭 England 成長, 一位出色的詞曲作者和音樂家, 被稱 "King of Skiffle 爵士民歌之王", 這稱號不是每個後輩樂迷所熟識的; 六十年代, 在英國的流行樂壇, 他是一位具影響力的音樂人, 而當年代的 "Beatles"仍未冒出頭來。


"I'll Never Fall In Love Again" Tom Jones
2011年, Tom Jones 接受媒介訪問時, 細說此曲的一段回憶:「 Lonnie 是我自五十年代所認識最早期的英國搖滾歌手之一; 兩人由同台表演而結為好友。在一次演出的晚上, 他對我說, 有一首已經錄製好, 快將面世的歌曲, 但感到無法把它好好演繹, 認為很適合由我唱出來; 最後, 相約到他家裡試聽一次。在他的家裡一卷錄音帶, 播放出來的一曲, 正是 Lonnie Donegan 的唱腔和風格, 有何不妥之處呢? 但是, 曲調聽落卻有似曾相識的感覺 ....


I'LL NEVER FALL IN LOVE AGAIN - Lonnie Donegan 1962
Written by: Lonnie Donegan and Jimmy Currie

.... 在閒談中, 他又提到三十年代美國大蕭條時期的一首歌曲, 恰巧是我所認識, 亦是普遍在威爾斯 Wales 的酒吧, 酒客幾杯到肚之後, 就會高吭合唱的歌曲之一。Lonnie 亦談及, 由於歌詞的一句而啟發, 加上一位同樣是 Skiffle Music 的歌手好友 Jimmy Currie, 兩人合作編撰 ....」

寫成一曲 "I'll Never Fall in Love Again"

"And it looks like I'm never gonna cease my wanderin' " 
 是來自1928年, 美國一首傳統歌曲 " Wanderin' ".....
