听他们的歌，我象是回到了60，70那个纯真的年代
听他们的歌，我象是重新看到了The Beatles几个人的身影

96年,一曲 “LEMON TREE”（柠檬树）使一支原本寂寂无名的德国5人乐队一下子红遍欧洲、亚洲，并在被苏慧伦翻唱后也开始为我们熟知。“LEMON TREE”的确是一首少有的醒神之作，易于为人接受。其实不仅止于一首“LEMON TREE”，Fool's Garden音乐曲曲好听，颇耐玩味。与以前的唱片相同，这张新专辑也充满了六、七十年代的音乐感觉，或畅快、或浓郁，皆是真性情的自然流露。Fool's Garden的音乐取法THE BEATIES、THE ROLLING STONES。合唱、伴唱的大量运用使之带有明显的表演色彩，感染力很强。Fool's Garden的音乐回应了近年来盛行的复古潮流，也让人们在潮起潮落中蓦然回首发同一些真正经得起时间考验的音乐。也许你会对在这张新作中没有找到一首象“LEMON TREE”那样的醒神之作感到遗憾，但新专辑整体水准更平均，12首曲子的综合满意度可以作为补偿。

不知大家是否还记得几年前台湾女歌手苏慧伦唱红过一首名为“Lemon Tree“的翻唱歌曲，此曲原唱者便是一支名不见经传的德国乐队Fool’s Garden 。凭借正当走红的苏慧伦的“引荐”，Fool's Garden不失时机来东南亚做宣传，并发行了这张《FOR SALE -- 出售》专辑，提高了知名度。90年代中后期的 Brit-Pop 潮流，在音乐上的一个重要特征便是回归六、七十年代的音乐风格，象 The Beatles、The Rolling Stones 、The Who 、The Smiths 等便是不少新晋乐队吸收模仿的对象。远在德国小城 Magstadt 的 5人乐队 Fool's Garden 虔诚地承传了The Beatles的遗风，无论歌曲的旋律、节奏，还是演唱表演风格，都模仿得维妙维肖。“Lemon Tree”的确很出彩，《FOR SALE》也相当有趣。相比之下新专辑则多了份沉稳，显得颇为内敛。新专辑显示了Fool's Garden走出模仿，探索自我风格的努力。象“Who Are You”、“Missing”、“Save Me”、“In The Name”、“Still”、“Happy”都已明显走出了The Beatles的影子。歌词创作也从叙事为主走向叙事与感性抒发并重。喜爱“Lemon Tree”的朋友可以从“It Can Happen”、“Allright”、“Suzy”等曲子中获得满足。

Fool's Garden有点模仿the Beatles风格，这首《pure》是《for sale》专辑里的一首，曲调变化不大，但却透出一种忧郁的感觉，适合一个人在夜深人静的时候，喝着咖啡，写点东西时候听，超有感觉。

Lyrics歌词：

Can't understand
what I have seen
I can't recall
where I have been
Can't find the words
I wish to say,
I can't be near
can't get away
I cannot do
the things I should,
I wish I could

I can't say where,
I can't say when,
I can't promise now
to be your friend
can't be the one
that you adore,
I don't know what I'm livin' for
The reason why
I feel so blue
is just because
I'm missing you

I can't slow down,
I can't be fast,
don't know how long
it's gonna last,
I don't know why
my life has changed,
can't get the pieces
rearranged
The only thing
I know for sure
your love was pure

I cannot lose,
I cannot win,
can't end things up
that I begin,
I won't be better
than anyone,
I don't know where I'm comin' from
The reason why
I feel so blue
is just because
I'm missing you

I can't be strong
when I get lost,
I can't believe,
I cannot trust
and all the pain
I won't endure,
I can't be rich,
I can't be poor
I won't get used
to be sincere
wish you where here

I can't devote,
I can't get too deep,
can't struggle hard,
can't stand defeat
I cannot mend
what I mixed up
I cannot hold what I have got
The only thing
I know for sure
your love was pure

强烈推荐给大家！！！！！！
