威爾森菲利普合唱團( Wilson Phillips )是來自加州洛杉磯的白人女子三重唱,該團成軍僅四年即宣告解散( 1989 至 1992 年 )。

 三位成員分別是卡妮威爾森( Carnie Wilson )、溫蒂威爾森( Wendy Wilson )與綺娜菲利普( Chynna Phillips ),卡妮和溫蒂是親姊妹,綺娜是她們的摯友,三人都出身音樂世家,雙方家長在西洋樂壇上都是赫赫有名的人物。

 卡妮和溫蒂這對姊妹的父親布萊恩威爾森( Brian Wilson ),是 60 年代著名的搖滾樂團海灘男孩( The Beach Boys )的靈魂人物;金髮的綺娜則是 60 年代極負盛名的雙親合唱團( The Mamas & the Papas )中菲利浦夫婦的掌上明珠。

 憑藉星二代的光環及自己詞曲的才華,她們的首張同名專輯《 Wilson Phillips 》於 1990 年 5 月推出,迅速成為歌迷焦點,在美國銷售達 500 萬張,並產生了三首全美冠軍單曲。可惜的是 1992 年發行第二張專輯之後,該團隨即宣布解散。

 

Release me  Wilson Phillips
(Carnie Wilson/ Chynna Phillips/Wendy Viora Wilson)

I know that it's time for a change
Mmm but when that change comes
Will you still feel the same?

How many times have I tried to turn this love around
I don't want to give up
But baby it's time
I had two feet on the ground
Can you release me?
Can you release me?

Now that you're gone
I can't help myself from wondering
Oh, if you'd have come down from your high
Would we've been all right?
Release me
Can you release me?

*Come on baby, come on baby
You knew it was time to just let go
'Cause we want to be free
But somehow it's just not that easy
Come on darling, hear me darling
'Cause you're a waste of time for me
I'm trying to make you see
That baby you've just got to release me
Release me
Release me

**I'm not going back to you anymore
Finally my weakened heart is healing though very slow
So stop coming around my door
'Cause you're not gonna find what you're looking for (*,**)

What is this power you've got on me
What is this power, oh
What is it, what is it (*,**)

Release me
Will you release me?
Ah...release me
Will you release me?
釋放我  威爾森菲利普合唱團


我知道該有所改變了
但是,當改變來臨
你還會有相同的感受?

多少次我努力想要讓愛翻轉
我不想放棄
但是....寶貝,時候到了
我兩隻腳踩在地上
你可以釋放我嗎?
你可以放我走嗎?

如今你已遠走
我不由自主的想知道
噢!如果高高在上的你走下來
我倆會安然無事嗎?
釋放我
你可以放我走嗎?

來吧!寶貝,來吧!
你早就清楚該放手了
因為我倆都想要自由
但畢竟沒那麼簡單
來吧!親愛的,聽我說
因為你是為了我而浪費時間
我努力的想讓你明白
寶貝,你真的必須釋放我
釋放我
放我走

我不會再回到你身邊
終於,我虛弱的心在極慢的跳動中治癒
那麼,別再來我的門外徘徊
因為,你再也找不到你想尋找的

你對我有什麼魔力嗎?
那是什麼魔力?
究竟是什麼?

釋放我
你會釋放我嗎?
啊....放我走
你會放我走嗎?
