Life (Des'ree song) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Life (Des'ree song)
"Life" is a popular song recorded by the British pop and soul singer Des'ree. It was the third single from her third album, ''Supernatural'', and was released on 2 June 1998. This song remains Des'ree's biggest hit, peaking at number one in Austria, Italy and the Netherlands. ==Lyrics and music video== On an "innocuous tone", this playful song mixes "stories about superstitions, phobias and travels around the world". The melody is "upbeat and jubilant".〔Elia Habib, ''Muz hit. tubes'', p. 431 (ISBN 2-9518832-0-X)〕 However, the banal lyrics and simplistic rhymes have been widely derided, with the song winning the "worst ever pop lyric" in a BBC poll, particularly for the verse:
''I don't want to see a ghost'' ''It's the sight that I fear most'' ''I'd rather have a piece of toast'' ''Watch the evening news''
In the music video, the singer is sitting on the back seat of a black 1965 Oldsmobile F-85 Cutlass convertible, driven by a chauffeur. Des'ree is initially sheltered from the sun by a black umbrella, which then flies away. The car passes through sugar cane fields, apparently in Guyana. An aeroplane flies overhead, but instead of spraying pesticide, it drops a host of butterflies. The video was directed by Mike Lipscombe.
