1. The Beatles 披頭四樂團

Quote: "Life is what happens to you while you're busymaking other plans."
名言：「人生就是當你忙著規劃時，意外發生的事。」


The Beatles, formed in Liverpool in1960, became the most influential band in popular music history. Initially, they performed in Hamburg, Germany, playing in clubs for up to eight hours a night. This period was crucial for their development - they had to learn German phrases to communicate with audiences, making them understand the importance of connecting with listeners across language barriers. The band's original lineup included John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Pete Best (later replaced by Ringo Starr), and Stuart Sutcliffe. Their manager, Brian Epstein, discovered them at Liverpool's Cavern Club, where they had played nearly 300 times. The band holds multiple records: they have the most number-one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 (20), have sold over 1.6 billion records worldwide, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988. Interestingly,
despite their global success, none of the Beatles could read or write musical notation - they learned their music by ear, proving that formal training isn't always necessary for artistic achievement. Their journey from working-class Liverpool to international stardom demonstrates how music can transcend cultural and linguistic boundaries.

披頭四1960年在利物浦成立，成為流行音樂史上最具影響力的樂團。早期，他們在德國漢堡的夜店演出，一晚上要表演長達八小時。這段經歷對他們的發展極為關鍵－他們必須學習德語詞彙與觀眾溝通，讓他們了解到跨越語言障礙與聽眾連結的重要性。樂團最初的陣容包括約翰·藍儂、保羅·麥卡尼、喬治·哈里森、皮特·貝斯特（後來由林哥·史達取代）和史都華·薩特克里夫。他們的經紀人布萊恩·艾普斯坦在利物浦的Cavern俱樂部發掘他們，當時他們已在那裡演出近300場。樂團保持多項紀錄：在告示牌百大單曲榜擁有最多冠軍歌曲（20首），全球唱片銷量超過16億張，1988年入選搖滾名人堂。有趣的是，儘管他們在全球取得成功，披頭四成員都不會看樂譜或寫樂譜－他們全靠耳朵學習音樂，證明正式訓練並非藝術成就的必要條件。他們從利物浦工人階級躍上國際巨星的旅程，展現了音樂如何能超越文化和語言的界限。


2. Queen 皇后樂團

Quote: "I won't be a rock star. I will be a legend."
名言：「我不會只當個搖滾明星，我要成為傳奇。」

Queen formed in London in 1970 whenFreddie Mercury joined Brian May and Roger Taylor's band Smile. Their academic backgrounds are fascinating - Brian May has a PhD in astrophysics, Roger Taylor
studied dentistry, and John Deacon has an electronics degree, while Freddie Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara) had a degree in art and graphic design. Mercury, who grew up in Zanzibar and India before moving to England, spoke multiple languages including English, Hindi, and Gujarati. The band's name
"Queen" was chosen by Mercury, who said "It's very regal obviously, and it sounds splendid... It's a strong name, very universal and immediate." Their song "Bohemian Rhapsody" broke conventions by
incorporating operatic passages and made-up words, showing how creative language use can enhance artistic expression. The band's Live Aid performance in 1985 is considered one of the greatest live performances in rock history. Queen's songs are particularly popular among English learners because of their clear diction, storytelling lyrics, and dramatic delivery. They have sold over 300 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling music artists of all time.

皇后樂團1970年在倫敦成立，當時佛萊迪·墨裘瑞加入布萊恩·梅和羅傑·泰勒的Smile樂團。他們的學術背景十分特別－布萊恩·梅擁有天體物理學博士學位，羅傑·泰勒曾讀牙醫，約翰·迪肯有電子工程學位，而佛萊迪·墨裘瑞（原名法魯克·布薩拉）則擁有藝術與平面設計學位。墨裘瑞在桑吉巴爾和印度長大後移居英國，能說多種語言，包括英語、印地語和古吉拉特語。樂團名稱「Queen」是墨裘瑞所取，他說：「很明顯這很高貴，聽起來很華麗...這是個很有力量的名字，具有普遍性和即時性。」他們的歌曲《波希米亞狂想曲》打破常規，融入歌劇段落和自創詞彙，展現創意用語如何能提升藝術表現。樂團1985年的Live Aid演出被認為是搖滾史上最偉大的現場表演之一。皇后樂團的歌曲特別受英語學習者歡迎，因為發音清晰、歌詞富有故事性，且表現戲劇化。他們全球唱片銷量超過3億張，是史上最暢銷的音樂團體之一。


3. Led Zeppelin 齊柏林飛船

Quote: "Good times, bad times, you know I've had my share."
名言：「好時光，壞時光，你知道我都經歷過。」

Led Zeppelin formed in London in 1968, after The Yardbirds dissolved and guitarist Jimmy Page recruited singer Robert Plant, drummer John Bonham, and bassist John Paul Jones. The band's name came from a joke by Keith Moon of The Who, who said their idea would go down like a
"lead balloon." They changed the spelling to "Led" to prevent mispronunciation. Their first album was recorded in just 36 hours with a cost of £1,782. Led Zeppelin pioneered album-oriented rock and creative studio techniques - they were one of the first bands to use natural room acoustics for recording. The band refused to release singles in the UK, insisting their music should be heard as complete albums. Their most famous song, "Stairway to Heaven," was partly inspired by Plant's interest in Celtic mythology and literature. Plant wrote many of the band's lyrics while reading books about mythology, fantasy, and J.R.R. Tolkien's works, showing how literature can influence songwriting. When drummer John Bonham died in 1980, the band chose to dissolve rather than continue without him, stating "We wish it to be known that the loss of our dear friend has made it impossible to continue as we were." The band's influence on rock music continues today, with over 300 million records sold worldwide.

齊柏林飛船1968年在倫敦成立，起因是電影角樂團（TheYardbirds）解散後，吉他手吉米·佩吉招募了主唱羅伯特·普蘭特、鼓手約翰·邦納姆和貝斯手約翰·保羅·瓊斯。樂團名稱來自誰人樂團（TheWho）的基斯·穆恩開的玩笑，他說他們的想法會像「鉛氣球」一樣沉重。他們把拼字改成「Led」以避免發音錯誤。他們的首張專輯僅花36小時錄製，成本1,782英鎊。齊柏林飛船開創了專輯導向搖滾和創新錄音技術－他們是最早運用自然空間聲學錄音的樂團之一。樂團拒絕在英國發行單曲，堅持他們的音樂應該以完整專輯形式呈現。他們最著名的歌曲《Stairwayto Heaven》部分靈感來自普蘭特對凱爾特神話和文學的興趣。普蘭特在閱讀神話、奇幻和托爾金作品時寫下許多歌詞，展現文學如何影響歌詞創作。1980年鼓手約翰·邦納姆去世後，樂團選擇解散而不是繼續，表示「我們希望大家知道，失去摯友讓我們無法繼續下去」。樂團對搖滾樂的影響延續至今，全球銷量超過3億張。
