樂曲背景
在兩年的巡演與修正後,樂隊於2006年帶來了他們的第五張全長度錄音室專輯《The Paramour Sessions》,全新的聆聽感受使樂隊不再拘泥於Nu-Metal的曲風。
來自於早期80年代硬式搖滾的氣息撲面而來。 專輯榜TOP200中首周售出37000張專輯拿下TOP16,闖入主流搖滾榜TOP11與現代搖滾榜的TOP15; 首波主打曲目無疑是WWE(美國職業摔角娛樂)旗下聯盟RAW於2006年度開場曲“To Be Loved” 這首單曲,放肆的吶喊於激烈的鼓點都預示著人們心中的夢想與希望,讓人有種無形的衝勁,去挑戰任何困難。 而在厚實的鼓擊與吉他音網交織下的“Alive(N’Out Of Control)”單曲,如同失控一般,主唱Jacoby Shaddix的高分貝吶喊令人心潮澎湃 ;悅耳動聽的中板搖滾之作“Forever”更是成為了眾多電台於電視節目的推薦曲目;重拾了80年代搖滾感動之觸覺的“What Do You Do?”在招牌式的合聲與吉他Solo的驅使下,觸發著搖滾鐵漢的柔情...... 《The Paramour Sessions》完全可以被看作是一張樂隊躋身主流搖滾界的強悍力作,Papa Roach幾乎達成了他們的搖滾傳奇的夢想(美國夢在音樂發麵的體現)。而且連續第四次拿下金唱片。
這首歌同時也被WWE RAW(美國職業摔角)於2006年10月9日到2009年11月9日選為官方主題曲,在2008年的電影《永不退縮》預告片中播放。
歌詞
Listen up, turn it up and rock it out
party on, I wanna hear you scream and shout
this is real, as real as it gets
I came to get down to get some fucking respect
taking it back to hardcore level
you better be ready, put your pedal to the metal
taking it back to hardcore level
you better be ready, put your pedal to the metal.
Go!
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
I want domination
I want your submission
I see you’re not resisting
To this temptation
I’ve got one confession
A love deprivation
I’ve got a jet black heart
It’s all fucked up and it’s falling apart
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
I’ve got another confession
I fell to temptation
And there is no question
There was some connection
I’ve got to follow my heart
No matter how far
I’ve gotta roll the dice
Never look back and never think twice
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Take your past and burn it up and let it go
Carry on; I’m stronger than you’ll ever know
That’s the deal; you get no respect
You’re gonna get yours
You better watch your fucking neck
Take your past and burn it up and let it go
Carry on; I’m stronger than you’ll ever know
That’s the deal; you get no respect
You’re gonna get yours
You better watch your fucking neck
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa I’ll never give in
Whoa I’ll never give up
Whoa I’ll never give in
And I just wanna be, wanna be loved
歌詞大意:
將你的歷史燒為灰燼,讓我們蓄勢待發…
堅持到底,我比你想像的更強大!
一言為定,否則你得不到任何尊重…
你唯有得到你想要的…
你最好擦乾淨你那該死的脖子…
我想要統治一切…
我想看到你屈服的樣子!!
我已經擲下色子!
從不回頭,永不後悔…
Whoa,永不妥協!
Whoa,永不放棄!
Whoa,永不妥協!我只是希望 ……我只是希望擁有愛!
