1994年世界杯主题曲 简介

　　美国一直是足球运动的处女地，把世界杯主办权交到他们手里似乎是个错误的选择，主题曲也变得黯淡。这首“荣耀之地”虽然有个响亮的名字，但是英雄主义色彩在这首歌中荡

　　然无存。“荣耀之地”在音乐风格上更接近于民谣与流行摇滚乐的结合，很有些美国西部荒原的苍茫感。1994年作者兼主唱达利尔创作了此歌，并邀请福音曲演唱组合“黑暗之声

　　”(Sounds of blackness)协助录制。由于作品缺乏对足球运动的共鸣，很快淹没在人们的记忆之中。1994年的世界杯合辑中收录的其他大牌艺人的作品倒是要比主题曲精彩得多。

(Gloryland, in Gloryland)

(You're here in Gloryland)

It started with a feeling

And a dream was born in you

You hope and pray that come the day

You’ll see that dream come true

 

With every passing moment

You begin to understand that

You’re bound¹ for Gloryland

With a hunger in your heart

And with fire in your soul

With passion² rising high

You know that you can reach your goal

Believe in what you do

And you've the strength to see it through

On the road to Gloryland

(and I say...)

Gloryland, in Gloryland

It’s in your heart, it's in your hand

In Gloryland, in Gloryland

You’re here in Gloryland

This is Gloryland

As the day gets ever closer

You are reaching for the sky

The flames that burn inside

Are the flames that never die

When you start to believe

It’s in your heart

It’s in your hand

You know, this is gloryland

(and I say...) Gloryland in Gloryland

It’s in your heart

It’s in your hand

In Gloryland, hey Gloryland

You're here in Gloryland
