今日の「聴き比べ」はまたしてもアルバート・ハモンド(Albert Hammond)の『落葉のコンチェルト(For The Peace of All Mankind)』です。
この曲は1973年のアルバート・ハモンドのヒット曲です。特に日本でヒットしたように記憶しています。もの悲しいメロディーは日本人好みです。
For the Peace of All Mankind
By Albert Hammond, Mike Hazlewood
You turned me on so bad that there was only one thing on my mind
An overnight affair was needed at the time
Hello, goodbye, no searching questions, that was clearly understood
But how was I to know that you would be so good?
For the peace, for the peace, for the peace of all mankind
Will you go away, will you go away, will you vanish from my mind
Will you go away and close the bedroom door
And let everything be as it was before
Too much too soon, too bad it didn't hit me till a week had passed
I might have saved the day if I had acted fast
I looked around in case you'd scribbled down the number secretly
But all you left were fingerprints and memories
For the peace, for the peace, for the peace of all mankind
Will you go away, will you go away, will you vanish from my mind
Will you go away and close the bedroom door
And let everything be as it was before
For the peace, for the peace, for the peace of all mankind
Will you go away, will you go away, will you vanish from my mind
Will you go away and close the bedroom door
And let everything be as it was before
Da-di-da, da-da-di, da-da-di-di-di-di-di
Will you go away, will you go away, will you vanish from my mind
Will you go away and close the bedroom door...
