會知道這首歌是因為看了SuJu一巡演唱會DVD
由KRY口中聽到這首歌 直覺就是英文翻唱的(偏美國的鄉村歌謠)
本來要查這首歌 但查到後來忘記= =
但就在昨天去拿四輯時 和淑鈴討論起這首歌
回家竟然也還記得查這首歌!!
原來是1974年 British 歌手 Paper Lace 唱的
歌曲主要是以諷刺的手法
說明當時有「美國黑手黨」之稱的AL Capone
為芝加哥的社會帶來的亂像

資料如下:

WiKi:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Capone

AL Capone也算是不簡單的人物 能在美國經濟大蕭條時間 從基層打拼上來
不過我比較好奇的是 為啥是由British 歌手 Paper Lace唱出這首歌XD
另外有人知道Chicago的正確發音是
1. 去cago
2. 噓cago
因為我印象中 芝加哥本地人會用第一種發音 但我學的是第二種???


The Night Chicago Died By Paper Lace


The Night Chicago Died- By SJ-KRY

(小旭在裡面整個就很可愛 想必是猜拳猜輸了 才會穿那一套驢子裝吧XD)

歌詞來自奇摩知識:http://tw.knowledge.yahoo.com/question/question?qid=1007012704191

In the heat of a summer night
In the land of the dollar bill
When the town of Chicago died
And they talk about it still

When a man named Al Capone
Tried to make that town his own
And he called his gang to war
With the forces of the law

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

And the sound of the battle rang
Through the streets of the old east side
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang
Had surrendered up or died

There was shouting in the street
And the sound of running feet
And I asked someone who said
Bout a hundred cops are dead

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be!

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

And ther was no sound at all
But the clock upon the wall
Then the door burst open wide
And my daddy stepped inside
And he kissed my mama's face
And he brushed her tears away

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed
