你是否曾經有過這種感覺：明明有很多好的選擇擺在眼前，但你偏偏想要那些得不到的？老鷹合唱團的經典名曲《Desperado》唱的就是這種人生困境！本週的《英語咖啡館》John老師和Shimin老師要來聊聊這首讓無數人產生共鳴的70年代經典。它不只是一首搖滾歌曲，更像是人生的寫照。歌名的desperado（亡命之徒）其實就是那些不願妥協、永遠在追求得不到東西的人。

當年的創作風格常帶有大量視覺化的歌詞，包含許多延伸與譬喻，例如「come to your senses」、「riding fences」，以及撲克牌的皇后卡等等，在本集中都將一一說明背後含義。70年代歌曲最棒的地方就是很會用畫面說故事，而《Desperado》絕對是其中的經典之作，千萬不要錯過這集英語咖啡館喔！

Have you ever had this feeling: even though there are many good choices right in front of you, you still want the things you can't have? The Eagles' classic hit "Desperado" sings about exactly this kind of life dilemma! This week on English Cafe, John and Shimin discuss this 70s classic that resonates with countless people. It's not just a rock song, but more like a reflection of life itself. The song title "desperado" (outlaw) actually refers to those who refuse to compromise and are always chasing things they can't obtain.

The songwriting style of that era often featured highly visual lyrics with extensive metaphors and imagery, such as "come to your senses," "riding fences," and the queen of hearts card, all of which will be explained in detail in this episode. The best thing about 70s songs is how well they use imagery to tell stories, and "Desperado" is definitely a classic example of this. Don't miss this episode of English Cafe!
