來自英國考文垂(Coventy)的The Enemy,在主唱兼吉他手Tom Clarke、貝斯手Andy Hopkins以及鼓手Liam Watts還是16歲的年紀,就想要實現他們對音樂的夢想,其中Tom從4歲稚齡便開始學習音樂,還央求母親買小提琴給他。2006年The Enemy著手創作屬於自己的樂曲,不到一年的時間,已經撰寫出20首基本表演曲目。精湛的現場演出很快吸引英國知名獨立廠牌Stiff Records注意,接連推出單曲“40 Days and 40 Nights”、“It’s Not OK”,造成英國媒體熱烈關切,紛紛寫上“Next Big Thing”之醒目標語。
The Enemy2006年成立,現簽約於華納唱片。在考文垂與凱爾特人隊的一場友誼賽後,樂隊與他們的前經紀人John Dawkins相識於考文垂隊的理光球場。2006年5與15日蘇格蘭XFM電台的DJ Jim Gellatly第一次播出他們的歌曲40 Days and 40 Nights。2007年樂隊發表了首張專輯We'll Live and Die in These Towns,並登上了全英專輯榜的榜首,獲得白金銷量。
Music for the People是樂隊的第二張錄音室專輯,發表於2009年4月27日,發行首周惜敗給美國老牌歌手Bob Dylan的新專輯Together Through Life,屈居全英專輯榜的亞軍。專輯製作人是Mike Crossey。專輯首支單曲是No Time For Tears,在全英音樂榜上的最高排名是16位(2009年4月19日),這也是該樂隊第四首Top 20單曲。
歌詞
Saturday - The Enemy
Saturday Saturday
Saturday Saturday
Dead end friends on the washing line
Lining up for a dressing down
Frosty milkman in the morning
Desperate breakfast in a boring town
Take a look around
and see what you wanna see
There's a train tonight
we'll leave when you wanna leave.
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Condensation on the window
Hides the sorrow of a weirdo's tears
Burnt out bins behind the station
Vandals lack imagination round here
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Take a look around
and see what you wanna see
Live the dreams you had
and be who you wanna be
There's a train tonight
We'll leave when you want to
leave when you want
If you've seen the light
Then be who you want to be,
who you want
There's a train tonight
We'll leave when you want to,
leave when you want
If you've seen the light
Then be who you want to,
be who you want
Saturday Saturday
Saturday Saturday
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
Saturday Saturday will make it all ok
