翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City ： ウィキペディア英語版 It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City "It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City" is a song written and performed by Bruce Springsteen on his debut album ''Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.'' in 1973. A 1975 live version can be found on the DVD of the Hammersmith Odeon concert that is included in the ''Born to Run'' (30th Anniversary Edition) and the ''Hammersmith Odeon London '75'' CDs. A 1978 live version is included in the ''Live/1975–85'' set. The song has also been covered by David Bowie.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.allmusic.com/song/its-hard-to-be-a-saint-in-the-city-mt0001024325 )〕 John Sayles included this song in a high school lunchroom scene of his movie ''Baby It's You''. This is the song that impressed producer Mike Appel so much that he quit his job to become Springsteen's manager, even though Springsteen did not have a record contract yet. This was also the first song Springsteen played at his audition at CBS Records for John Hammond, who eventually signed him to a record contract, on May 2, 1972.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://brucebase.wikispaces.com/Demo+-+Studio+Sessions )〕 The following day, Springsteen recorded "It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City" as part of a 12-song demo for Hammond.〔〔 The demo version of the song was released on ''Tracks'' in 1998. The version included on ''Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.'' was recorded during the summer of 1972 backed by future E-Street Band members David Sancious on piano, Vini Lopez on drums and Garry Tallent on bass.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://brucebase.wikispaces.com/Greetings+From+Asbury+Park+-+Studio+Sessions )〕 == Lyrics and music == "It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City" is a fast-paced song. It is a solid rock 'n' roll song when played in concert. Its tone is cocky and arrogant. The lyrics contain an element of religious allegory as the singer boasts of his streetwise toughness. The song is about a young man growing up on the streets of a city, and who is trying to stay "good" and do what he believes is right. Unfortunately, "those gasoline boys sure talk gritty" and he is inexorably dragged into some very unsaintly activities. One of the more quoted lines is "The devil appeared like Jesus through the steam in the street/Showin' me a hand I knew even the cops couldn't beat/I felt his hot breath on my neck as I dove into the heat/It's so hard to be a saint when you're just a boy out on the street." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
