這首《Satomi Hakken-Den》在歐美國家完全沒知名度,但在日本、港台等亞洲國家可說是紅的不得了。主唱John O' Banion已於2007年的214日 過世,享年59歲。他在80年代初期有小紅一下,曾出過4張正式的錄音室專輯,包括1983年在日本推出專為電影所做的『Satomi Hakken-Den』專輯,最後一張是1997年復出之作『Hearts』專輯,但除了Satomi Hakken Den並沒有出名的歌,版主在文尾硬是po了一條”I Don't Want To Lose Your Love”,對他有興趣的格友可聽聽看,還不錯說。

 

Satomi hakken-den   John O'banion

You and I didn't see the evening fly
There was magic in the air
With times enough to spare
Now it's hours I have to say goodbye
Well you know I have to go
But still it hurts me so

*I don't want this night to end
Don't say goodbye
Just hold me close, my darling
I don't want this night to end
Pretend awhile and let's forget tomorrow (*)

Feeling blue I can see it in your eyes
But I've got a job to do
Got to see things through
But I will be near even when I am out of sight
Counting seconds till the day I'm coming home to stay (*)

Oh my darling, love me tonight
And chase the morning shadow with your heavenly light
I find my strenth inside your arms
So love me tonight and keep my heart beside you
When you go, oh.......(*)

新里見八犬傳   約翰歐班寧

我倆並未看見黃昏飛舞
空中充滿了神奇
有充足的時間任人消磨
現在,是我該道別的時刻了
你也明白我是非走不可
但那依然使我傷心

我不希望夜晚結束
別說再見
抱緊我,親愛的
我不希望夜晚結束
假裝一下,讓我們忘掉明天

心情黯然,從你眼底我看得出來
但我有任務在身
我得親眼看它完成
即使你看不到我,我依然在你身邊
請開始讀秒,直到我回來的那一天

噢!親愛的,今晚好好愛我
用你的天國之光趕走清晨的陰影
在你懷裡,我找到了力量
今晚,請好好愛我,讓我的心永遠陪伴著你
當你離去.......


這是日本電影"新里見八犬傳"的主題曲,主要演員都是當時日本的最紅的演員,包括玉女偶像藥師丸,性格偶像小生真田廣之(最近演過"七夜怪談"電影版)以及千葉真一等。電影本身是一部改編自日本民間傳說的神怪片,卻請來外國人寫作及演唱英文的主題曲,在當時可謂一大創舉,以至於90年代的日本偶像劇經常選用西洋藝人的作品作為主題曲,也就稀鬆平常、見怪不怪。然經過時間的淬煉,人們對"新里見八犬傳"這部電影已經不復記憶,這首抒情悅耳的主題曲卻流傳久遠,即使在今天,網路上仍然經常有人在詢問這首歌曲。

根據多位樂友的來信,Satomi hakken-den的英文讀音,就是"里見八犬傳"的日文發音。謹此致謝!

John O' Banion ~ I Don't Want To Lose Your Love

 

Your look at me and I can see the feeling's gone,
What happened to the dream we plan our future on?
You turn away and try to say what we both know,
But baby, I can't let you go... Let you go away!
'Cause...

I don't want to lose your love,
I don't want to be the one who's broken hearted,
Don't take the only love I've ever known!
I don't want to lose your love,
How could you go and stop what we have started?
Oh, baby, I don't want to be alone!

I try to hide the hurt inside so plain to see,
I never could keep secrets from you anyway.
So hard to face, I can't erase the thought of you,
Oh baby, won't you change your mind?
Change your mind and stay?
'Cause

I don't want to lose your love,
I don't want to be the one who's broken hearted,
Don't take the only love I've ever known!
I don't want to lose your love,
How could you go and stop what we have started?
Oh, baby, I don't want to be alone!

I don't want to lose your love,
I don't want to be the one who's broken hearted,
Don't take the only love I've ever known!
I don't want to lose your love,
How could you go and stop what we have started?
Oh, baby, I don't want to be alone!

I don't want to lose your love,
I don't want to be the one who's broken hearted,
Don't take the only love I've ever known!
I don't want to lose your love,
How could you go and stop what we have started?
Oh, baby, I don't want to be alone!
