However, a partial instrumental version of the song was played during the Pump Tour in 1990 as part of the "Sweet Emotion" medley with the "Peter Gunn Theme". The song has since been re-worked and is now included on Aerosmith's fifteenth studio album, ''Music from Another Dimension!'', which was released on November 6, 2012. It is set to appear in the film ''G.I. Joe: Retaliation'', which was originally scheduled for theatrical release in the summer of 2012, but was released on March 28, 2013. Aerosmith debuted "Legendary Child" with a performance of the song on the season finale of the television show ''American Idol'' on May 23, 2012. After the performance, the song was made available for digital download〔 and premiered on radio stations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.937thearrow.com/iplaylist/artist/3508 )〕 After the release of the single, Aerosmith embarked on the Global Warming Tour with Cheap Trick, which took the band to two dozen North American locations from mid-June through mid-August 2012. ==Composition== The lyrics serve as a retrospective of the band's career. Like other songs by Aerosmith, the lyrics make reference to the band's back catalogue. The line "But we traded them toys for other joys" refers to their album "Toys in the Attic" and their struggles with addiction. It may also refer to the album's title track of the same name. The line "I took a chance at the high school dance never knowing wrong from right" refers to the songs "Walk This Way", one of the band's biggest hits, and "Adam's Apple" respectively. Both songs first appeared on "Toys in the Attic". 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「Legendary Child」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
