歌词

I'll be the roundabout

The words will makeYou out an' out

You spend the day your way

Call it morning driving through the southIn an' out the valley

The music dance and sing

They make the children really ring

I spend the day your way

Call it morning driving through the southIn an' out the valley

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you

Ten true summers we'll be back and laughing too

Twenty four before my love you'll seeI'll be there with you

I will remember you

Your silhouette willCharge the view

Of distant atmosphere

Call it morning driving through the south even in the valley

In and around the lake woh

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you

Ten true summers we'll be back and laughing too oh oh

Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you

Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching down on the land

Catching the swirling wind, the sailor sees the rim of the land

The eagles dancing wings create as weather spins out of hand

Go closer hold the land feel partly no more than grains of sand

We stand to lose all time, athousand answers by in our hand

Next to your deeper fears we stand surrounded by a million years

Ill be the roundabout

The words will make you out an out

Ill be the roundabout

The words will make you out an out

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

Twenty four before my loveI'll be there

(Feels like)

I'll be the roundabout

The words will make you out an' out

You spend the day your way

Call it morning driving through the south in and out the valley

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky ,and they stand there

One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you

Ten true summers we'll be back and laughing too

Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you

创作背景

歌词的灵感来自于乐队成员从阿伯丁经格拉斯哥前往伦敦路上的所见所感。英伦三岛多以环岛替代十字路口,所以他们得以在路上遇见许多环岛(roundabout)。一路上云层笼罩的山峦如同直指天空,形成了“山峰从天空降临”[Mountains come out of the sky, and they stand there]的灵感,“绕过湖岸”[In and around the lake]的灵感来自于格拉斯哥沿途的一个湖。

经过24小时的长途乘车旅行,乐队抵达伦敦,主场Jon Anderson得以与妻子团聚,这是“经过二十四小时我就要与你相见”[Twenty four before my love you'll see I be there with you]的灵感。

网络模因

roundabout[Yes演唱歌曲]

2012年,《Roundabout》被选为《Jojo的奇妙冒险》动画的片尾曲。歌曲的吉他前奏通常插入在故事最为引人入胜的地方,并在悬念之处将画面转为泛黄,并插入“To Be Continued”标志。

这类编辑后来被广泛效仿,通常在发生重大失误或事故之前插入,以达到发噱的效果。

游戏《侠盗猎车手5》的“洛圣都电台”收录了该曲目。
