All Day Long

有了Joy Division，那當然就要有New Order，喪禮之後總是接著歡愉。他們直到2006年還在唱著Love Will Tear Us Apart，想必寶刀未老，但卻又在2007年宣佈玩完了。

不挑電子舞曲祖師級的Blue Monday、不挑別人翻唱得有聲有色的Bizarre Love Triangle...，卻挑了All Day Long，一首徐昌國稱為「英倫農村曲」的小品，來自New Order第四張大碟Brotherhood。又是死亡，這個innocent child會不會是指Ian Curtis？不知道，不過，就如這個評介說的，聽New Order別太嚴肅，他們的歌名沒有意義，他們的封套設計簡約到沒有任何訊息，他們要賣一個「流行的祕密 Mass-produced Secret」，他們不要你去想，就是去感受，感受那個歡愉，反智卻有自信的流行品味...

All Day Long試聽（往下拉到歌目）；歌詞：

All Day Long--New Order

This is a song about an innocent
Who died at the hands of a desperate man
He trusted those who he thought he knew
He trusted those who he looked up to
I'll never forget the joy in his face
He'd laugh and he'd cry and he'd ruin my place
He'd drive me crazy, and he'd drive me wild
I used to scream and shout all day long

Now I hope you know this song
Is about a child who now has gone
And other children like him, too
Abused and used by what adults do
So don't tell me about politics
Or all the problems of our economics
When you can't look after what you can't own
You scream and shout all day long

P.S.本篇放的封套圖不是All Day Long的Brotherhood專輯，而是我最喜歡的封套，他們的首張大碟Movement。
