每日一歌｜搖滾歌手睡粉絲，是從Led Zeppelin開始的
閱讀本文前，先點開音樂播放鍵
「There was this singer with a mane like a lion and a voice like a banshee, a guitar prodigy who left people"s jaws on the floor, a versatile bassist who was equally at home on the keyboards, and a drummer who played like his life depended on it. - 他們的主唱有著雄獅般的鬃毛、女妖般的歌聲，天才吉他手讓人們的下巴都掉到地上，多才多藝的貝斯手，鼓手就像用自己的生命來演奏」
——Barack Obama - 貝拉克 · 奧巴馬
Groupie，音譯為「骨肉皮」，也可以被翻譯成「果兒」。
中文語境里，多指追求和搖滾歌手發生關係的女孩。與毒品一樣，它是搖滾樂一絲嘈雜的背景音。
在Groupie「污名化」的過程中，一支樂隊起了關鍵作用——「Led Zeppelin - 齊柏林飛艇」。
Led Zeppelin那架名為「The Starship」的私人飛機，總要帶上幾個Groupie，嗑藥亂搞，據說樂隊每個人都有性虐取向，甚至會強迫女孩脫光衣服跳進養著章魚的浴缸…
很多人正是因為他們，才知道了Groupie這個詞。
除了睡骨肉皮，他們干出的荒唐事數不勝數：在飯店走廊上騎摩托、把電視機窗戶扔出去、在東京希爾頓酒店大肆破壞…
混蛋如斯，沒被定義為人渣徹底踩死，是因為他們的音樂實在偉大。
1971年，Led Zeppelin推出樂隊第四張專輯，一發售便飽受爭議：專輯封面上沒有標題、沒有任何文字、沒有樂隊名。直到今天，這張專輯仍沒有任何明確的名字。
媒體只能抓住專輯內頁插圖上4個神秘符號不放，聲稱與「撒旦崇拜」、「與惡魔交換靈魂」相關。
然而這張專輯中的「Stairway To Heaven」一經播出，所有不解、質疑、嘲笑，煙消雲散。
它被認為是電台廣播歷史上播放次數最多的一首歌，甚至在它沒有正式發行的美國，也是70年代最常被點唱的歌。在「Rolling Stone Magazine - 滾石雜誌」評出的「史上最偉大500首歌曲」中，高居第3。
今天我們聽這首「Stairway To Heaven」，通過它，一窺Led Zeppelin的偉大。
很難定義這首歌的風格。一開始是靜謐的田園風格，但突然急轉，加入電子樂，結束部分是快節奏的硬式搖滾音樂，震顫耳膜。
強烈的風格變化轉換的非常自然，讓人忍不住一遍遍重放，確認這一切是怎樣發生的。
其實「Stairway To Heaven」，就像遊走於重金屬、布魯斯、迷幻、爵士、鄉村之間的Led Zeppelin整支樂隊一樣——
沒人能簡單定義他們的風格，也沒人能簡單判斷他們是音樂天使還是惡魔混蛋。
Stairway To Heaven
There"s a lady who"s sure all that glitters is gold
And she"s buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Ooh ooh and she"s buying a stairway to heaven
There"s a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
"Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook there"s a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh it makes me wonder
Ooh it makes me wonder
There"s a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who standing looking
Ooh it makes me wonder
Ooh it really makes me wonder
And it"s whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
If there"s a bustle in your hedgerow don"t be alarmed now
It"s just a spring clean for the May Queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There"s still time to change the road you"re on
And it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won"t go
In case you don"t know
The pipers calling you to join him
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How evrything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all yeah
To be a rock and not to roll
And she"s buying a stairway to heaven
