《單曲》Pet Shop Boys - The Pop Kids

Remember those days, the early '90s?

英倫長青電子流行雙人組 Pet Shop Boys 將於今年 4/1 推出第 13 張專輯《Super》,收錄 12 首歌曲,再度邀請葛萊美最佳製作人 Stuart Price 擔綱混音與製作,延續 2013 年專輯《Electric》的概念,喚起俱樂部文化與時髦復古記憶。目前已釋出搶聽單曲「Inner Sanctum」,送上首支主打「The Pop Kids」,重溫青春與流行音樂的美好!主唱 Neil Tennant 表示,此首歌描敘早期 90 年代他朋友的真實故事,當時從英國伯明罕到倫敦的 King's College 國王學院念歷史,認識了同校的一位女孩,兩人都喜歡流行音樂並總是一起去俱樂部同樂,他們就是所謂的 The Pop Kids!



Lyrics 歌詞:(by 好青年 整理)

[Verse 1: ]
Remember those days, the early nineties
We both applied for places at the same university
Ended up in London where we needed to be
To follow our obsession with the music scene

[Pre-Chorus: ]
Wherever we went
Whatever we did
We knew the songs

[Chorus: ]
They called us the pop kids
'Cause we loved the pop hits
And quoted the best bits
So we were the pop kids
I loved you
I loved you
They called us the pop kids

[Verse 2: ]
I studied history while you did biology
To you the human body didn't hold any mystery
We were young but imagined we were so sophisticated
Telling everyone we knew that rock was overrated

[Pre-Chorus: ]
We stayed out 'til late
Five nights a week
And felt so chic

[Chorus: ]
They called us the pop kids
'Cause we loved the pop hits
And quoted the best bits
So we were the pop kids
I loved you
I loved you
They called us the pop kids

[Post-Chorus: ]
The pop kids (3x)
Remember those days (8x)

[Bridge: ]
It was a wet Wednesday night
We worried that no one would be going out
How wrong we were
When we turned the corner
There was already a queue stretching down the street
We swept straight in and you said

[Outro: ]
Oh, I like it here
Oh, I love it
Oh, I like it here
Oh, I love it
Oh, I like it here
Oh, I love it
Oh, I like it here
Oh, I am never going home
I loved you
They called us the pop kids
'Cause we loved the pop hits
And quoted the best bits
So we were the pop kids
I loved you


In the inner sanctum
You're a star
The girls, the guys
They all know who you are
