Boston最廣為人知的一首歌,是1986年發行的專輯「Third Stage」中的「Amanda」,當年席捲全美流行榜與搖滾榜冠軍,距離前一張專輯發行時間相隔近十年。堅持慢工出細活,不用合成、以樂器原音呈現音樂的搖滾團體。
帶著耳機,將音量開到最大,再次聽這張專輯,眼淚再也忍不住。
專輯最後一首歌,道盡對搖滾不朽的堅持,謹以這首歌紀念Brad Delf!May he rest in peace.
請你,聽這首歌時,如果可以,戴上耳機,仔細、用心聆聽每個聲音。
希望你能從中獲得感動!

In my mind
I can see reminders of a past decade
So far behind
Like the shadows linger at the close of day.
And we could see
We were timeless dreamers of another day.
And we were free
In a dawning age we had so much to say.
Oooh, the nights you came to me
A bluejean lady so eager to be free.
And the wind in your long hair blowin as we stood for the band.
Oh, hollyann.
Hollyann
We made the dark into light.
We saw the wrong and the right.
We were for life
And we would never concede it.
Hollyann
We left the world behind
A million hands gave the sign.
We held the line
Can you believe it?

Hollyann
We could live
Just to turn the world into our fantasy.
And we could give
Aquarius was really meant to be.
You and I we were there to see the dawn.
Side by side we had love to carry on.
And I still hear guitars in the air as we sat in the sand.
Oh, hollyann
Hollyann
We made the dark into light.
We saw the wrong and the right.
We were for life
And we would never concede it.
Hollyann
We left the world behind
A million hands gave the sign.
We held the line
Can you believe it?
