[Verse 1]

In the still of the night, I hear the wolf howl, honey

Sniffing around your door

In the still of the night, I feel my heart beating heavy

Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night, I see the full moon rise

Telling me what's in store

My heart start aching, my body start-a shaking

And I can't take no more

No, no, no

[Chorus]

Now I just wanna get close to you

And taste your love so sweet

And I just wanna make love to you

Feel your body heat

In the still of the night

In the still of the night

Over here, baby

[Verse 2]

In the heat of the day, I hang my head down low

And hide my face from the sun

Through the light of the day until the evening time

Waiting for the night to c-c-c-come

Ooh, baby

[Bridge]

In the still of the night

In the cool moonlight

I feel my heart is aching

In the still of the night

[Breakdown]

Ooh, baby

Ooh, babe

I can't keep away

Closer and closer, need to be closer

I can't keep away, can't keep away, can't keep away

I can't keep away, no

You gotta give me love

Got to give me some lovin' everyday

Can't keep away

[Instrumental Break]

Ooh baby, ooh woman

Ahh

[Guitar Solo]

Get over here, babe

[Verse 3]

In the still of the night, I hear the wolf howl, honey

Sniffing around your door

In the still of the night, I feel my heart beating heavy

Telling me I gotta have more

Ooh! Mama

[Chorus]

Now I just wanna get close to you

Taste your love so sweet

And I just wanna make love to you

Feel your body heat

In the still of the night, ooh yeah

[Outro]

In the still of the night

I will be sneaking 'round your door

In the still of the night

In the still of the night

Ain't nothing gonna stop me now

Still of the night, still of the night, still of the night

Still of the night, still of the night, still of the night

Still of the night, still of the night, still of the night

多添点:

今天分享一首来自 Whitesnake(白蛇乐队)的《Still of the Night》。
《Still of the Night》(又名《In the Still of the Night》)是白蛇乐队1987年发行的单曲,收录于他们非常成功的同名专辑中。1987年3月9日发行时,它在英国排名第16位,在美国主流摇滚歌曲中排名第18位,在公告牌百强单曲榜中排名第79位。2009年,这首歌被VH1评为有史以来第27首最佳硬摇滚歌曲。

这首歌是由主唱 David Coverdale和吉他手John Sykes 创作的,是乐队最受欢迎的歌曲之一。它结合了乐队的蓝调起源,同时又是更强硬声音也更有力量的硬摇滚。目前的白蛇乐队和John Sykes 也会在现场反复重唱这首歌。

这首歌被认为听起来很像齐柏林飞艇乐队的“Black Dog”,这可能是创作这首歌的灵感来源,而这首歌的MV在发布的第一周就成为了最受欢迎的MTV。

创作者之一的David Coverdale在采访时说:
我母亲去世的时候,我在她家里翻东西发现了一些早期的样本磁带。其中一首是我和里奇·布莱克莫尔(Ritchie Blackmore)一直在创作的歌曲,这首歌就是后来的《Still of the Night》的前身。不过已经完全认不出来了,所以里奇也没什么好担心的了,我也一样!哈哈哈!当我们在法国南部的时候,我把它给了John Sykes,他把他自己的感觉放了进去。约翰讨厌蓝调,所以我必须在他能接受的范围内工作。我把它变成了电蓝调,而且这个表演方式在那个时代是非常棒的,因为歌曲也相对来说是独特的。有很多人都在做这种事,但他们没有那些歌曲的质量。

在1999年接受Melodic Rock采访时,吉他手John Sykes说:

我先写了那首歌的第一部分,然后是中间部分。

这些都是在我妈妈厨房里用吉他写的。直到好几个月后,我想出了其他的东西,基本上得到了歌词的重复段的和弦。

白蛇当时的阵容:

人声:David Coverdale

吉他手:John Sykes

低音吉他:Neil Murray

鼓:Aynsley Dunbar

键盘:Don Airey

这首歌告诉我们,母亲的杂物间和母亲的厨房非常重要。
