歌曲歌词
[Verse 1:]
Today I feel the mood
And I don't feel like talking oh ho a waha
I wasn't ready to lose you
You're the first man to move me yeah
You help me feel alive
Got me up from 9 til 5 oh ho a waha
I could get through those days
With you on my mind yeah
[Bridge:]
Gotta try and move on
But I promise you
I will kiss your crown when life takes me down
[Chorus:]
I saved my last dance for you
My friend
I saved my last dance for you
My friend
[Verse 2:]
And all the seats in the crowd
Oh people love to move now oh ho a waha
I just can't feel the beat
Cos my heart's fallen out yeah
[Chorus]
I got my light in my hands
And your love in my heart
I got my light in my hands
And your love in my heart
I saved my last dance for you
My friend
[Verse 3:]
And it seems I can live my life with you as my rhythm
Yeah
And I know i'll find my feet and... beaming
Yeah yeah
[Chorus]
I got my light in my hands
And your love in my heart
I got my light in my hands
And your love in my heart
I saved my last dance for you
My friend
歌曲鉴赏
Nick Levine为这首歌给了四星,并评价说:
There's an unmistakable whiff of Fleetwood Mac - incense mixed with champers and crack? - to this second single from Clare Maguire. It's there in the passionately romantic but utterly relatable lyrics, it's there in the soaring, sing-along-soon-as-you-hear-it chorus, and it's there in the twinkly keyboard sounds that could almost have been nicked from the Tango In The Night studio tapes.
But this is The Mac pimped up for the teenies, with Maguire's mighty vocals - so committed and filled with sincerity, she'd sell you a papier-maché pac-a-mac were she (literally) to sing its praises - shrouded by a bombastic but glittery production from Fraser T Smith. The result conjures up images of a muscular drag queen giving great Stevie Nicks in a Soho cocktail joint - the track, that is, not Maguire, who is actually very attractive as well as very talented.
