如何和这首歌结下一段缘呢？这是一个很奇怪的过程，话说当天听着“黄舒骏”的《改变一九九五》（请看：歌曲 - 台湾 - 黄舒骏改变1995 - 十年才遇见你），在歌词中黄舒骏写到“Eagles在东京开了复出又告别的演唱会，我在巨蛋帮你听了Desperado满脸都是泪”，就这样我上了优管寻找这首歌。。。一听就不得了了~~旋律优美，主唱声音有磁性，立刻爱上了她，原以为她是一首爱情歌曲，其实并不是。。。
老鹰乐队（Eagles）是20世纪1970年代早期成立于美国洛杉矶的一支摇滚乐团体，其中一首名曲《加州旅馆》（Hotel California）也是出自他们。Desperado是Glyn Johns在伦敦为The Eagles录制的第二张专辑，发行于1973年，整张专辑大概讲述这样一个故事：1880年的美国西部，21岁的杜林·达顿（Dooling Dalton）由于误人歧途而触犯法律踏上吉凶未卜的征程。（资料参考：百度百科-老鹰乐队）
自己会被这首歌迷住除了，旋律优美，主唱声音有磁性，歌词听起来就像她在对我说“小弟，别再浪费时间了。。。”
写到这里，我也应该要准备梳洗上班了（清晨六点四十八分，天晴多云）
