歌曲簡介


70年代初期,中國功夫和Disco舞曲是二種波及歐美主流國家的新熱潮。
李小龍
李小龍
中國功夫作為亞洲元素的代表,在西方人眼中具有奇異但讓他們熱血沸騰的特質。當然,這全應歸功於大師李小龍。1971年,李小龍回港拍攝了第一部新派功夫電影《唐山大兄》。這部電影,成了香港電影的救市之作,更開創了一門世界電影史都必須承認的類別,中國(香港)功夫電影。到了李小龍的第三、四部電影《猛龍過江》(1972)和《龍爭虎鬥》(1973)時,因拍攝的外景場地和班底趨於國際化,讓好萊塢等歐美電影發行商注意到李小龍功夫電影的獨特魅力。至此,西方人狂熱的愛上了李小龍這種硬橋硬馬的真功夫電影及片中所體現出懲惡揚善的個人英雄主義,“中國功夫”這一獨特的文化元素也開始被西方人熟識並學習。而李小龍強調的“用中國人的方法做外國人做不到的事”,或許也是其在西方獨佔一席,現今更仍是中國影人進入國際影業捷徑的基點。
70—80年代,也是Disco舞曲的鼎盛時期。這種帶有自我解放及反抗意識的新節奏(當時)舞曲,是生活不可或缺的一部分。那時的john travolta還是舞會王子,他著小喇叭褲的標誌性舞步,帶動整個Disco風潮的熱力四射。由他主演的電影《Saturday Night Fever》可以看到70年代的各式代表性符號和全民皆舞的Disco瘋狂。
正是在這種雙重背景下,《Kung Fu Fighting》誕生了。

版本二(《功夫熊貓》主題曲)
Kung Fu Fighting (Feat. Cee-Lo Greenand Jack Black)
everybody is kung fu fighting
your mind becomes fast as lighting
althrough the future is a little bit fright'ning
it's the book of your life that you're writing
you're a diamond in the rough
a brilliant ball of clay
you could be a work of art
if you just go all the way
now what would it take to break
i believe that you can bend
now only do you have to fight
but you have got to win
everybody is kung fu fighting
your mind becomes fast as lighting
althrough the future is a little bit fright'ning
it's the book of your life that you're writing
you are a natural
why is it so hard to see
maybe it's just because
you keep on looking at me
the journey's a lonely one
so much more than we know
but sometimes you've got to go
go on and be your own hero
everybody is kung fu fighting
your mind becomes fast as lighting
althrough the future is a little bit fright'ning

if you just go all the way
now what would it take to break
i believe that you can bend
now only do you have to fight
but you have got to win
everybody is kung fu fighting
your mind becomes fast as lighting
althrough the future is a little bit fright'ning
it's the book of your life that you're writing

版本四 張善為功夫fighting之電玩傳奇
everybody was kung fu fighting
大家都是天下無敵
得要練就一身武藝
才能迎戰 kung fu fighting
電玩主機在冒煙電視螢幕在發光
整個世界在旋轉整個世界變了樣
來龍去脈還未了臉上已被挨一腳
大家都在打電動為何我被電動打
everybody was kung fu fighting
打倒敵人生存下去
其實我是和平主義
習武我有難言之隱
我的造型很tekken
我有朋友宮之介
有個女孩叫蘿拉她說帶我闖一闖
左鬼武者右洛克人決鬥一場又一場
回家只有一條路
ko魔王和老大
everybody was kung fu fighting
弱肉強食就是真理
即使我有一身正氣
心裡只想回家休息
kung fu fighting
fight now
傳說電動連打七七四十九天
就會被抓到一個神奇的世界
想要活命的人一刻都不能放鬆
不然不到兩天你肯定就會失蹤
所有被你欺負消滅糟蹋的角色
都會一一出現找你討公道
這裡的壞蛋一個比一個凶
這裡的女人比男人還會武功
從小時候阿嬤就不喜歡讓我打電動
因為我不關機不睡覺不作邉?br>現在我一身武藝經驗值2兆
可是我卻再也不敢打電動

當然也還有舞曲版本的,但基本旋律基本上是一致的,還是以上面的為主。
否則就不是Carl Douglas(卡爾-道格拉斯)那《Kung Fu Fighting》了。
