标题The Royal Guardsmen

Snoopy的众多装扮之中
World War I Flying Ace的这个战争英雄角色
绝对是最着名的其中一个
如此出名的角色
又怎麽可能没有人以此为题来高歌一曲呢?
这里要写的是一个名为The Royal Guardsmen的摇滚乐团
成立於1960年代美国的佛罗里达州
共有六名成员
是当时颇有名气的「车库摇滚乐团 Garage band」
他们在1966年推出了第一张单曲唱片"Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron"
从歌名就知道这一首歌的内容是关於Snoopy和The Red Baron
歌中一直提到Snoopy和The Red Baron
监於第一张单曲的成功
乐团接下来再接再励的推出数张单曲及专辑
分别有1967年的
Return of the Red Baron
Snoopy & His Friends
Snoopy's Christmas
1968年的
Snoopy For President等等
该团於1969年解散
从Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron的歌词(1)
可以看到中间写到德军的The Red Baron是如何的厉害
把八十架盟军战机一一击下
直到Snoopy这位英雄出现
一心想要报仇的Snoopy还是不幸的被The Red Baron击中
之後Snoopy就和Great Pumpkin讨论新的战略
并再次去挑战The Red Baron
这次Snoopy和The Red Baron一轮激战後
终於把The Red Baron击落
在Return of the Red Baron中(2)
一开始就说到The Red Baron虽然被Snoopy击中
不过在最後一刻他跳机成功
Snoopy在击下The Red Baron就飞回去查看
结果看到The Red Baron站在山顶上
Snoopy就飞下去说"Curse you, Red Baron!"
The Red Baron也回敬一句"Ach, du Liebe"
之後the Red Baron大呼说他会再次出击
勇敢的Snoopy就对自己说"永不害怕 Never fear"
然後Snoopy就飞过大海去找寻The Red Baron的下落
终於Snoopy发现了The Red Baron正在修理他的飞机
Snoopy就降落要和The Red Baron一决生死
The Red Baron很担心但是Snoopy就很冷静
之後就是Snoopy和The Red Baron的追逐枪战
同年The Royal Guardsmen推出了另一首单曲Snoopy's Christmas (3)
内容是第一次世界大战时的新闻表示The Red Baron又一次出击
盟军总师令直接找Snoopy出动要他去对乎The Red Baron
在平安夜
温度是华氏四十度以下
Snoopy出动去找寻The Red Baron
一轮激战之後
Snoopy发现机翼上都结了冰就知道大事不妙
突然传来了圣诞钟声
带来了世界和平的讯息
Snoopy完全被The Red Baron锁定为目标并一直接近
为何The Red Baron还不开火
我们永远都不会知道
The Red Baron迫使Snoopy降落到敌後的莱茵河
Snoopy知道一切都快将结束了
这时The Red Baron突然大声对Snoopy说"Merry Christmas, mein friend!"
之後还要Snoopy和他一起乾杯
Snoopy对The Red Baron致敬
然後他们又一次起飞并知道他们会有再碰头的一天
这些音乐CD在美国现在还很容易买得到
无论是Amazon.com还是其它音乐网站都可以买得到从新发行的CD
另外就是Youtube上面可以找到The Royal Guardsmen所演出的Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron

还有一个非常好玩又搞笑的「遥控飞机」版的短片
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4FdEXvUC-c&mode=related&search=
这个短片中可以看到竟然有人真的制作了一台The Red Baron所驾驶的红色三翼飞机
而Snoopy的狗屋战机实在是非常的搞笑
(1) Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron
After the turn of the century
In the clear blue skies over Germany
Came a roar and a thunder men had never heard
Like the scream and the sound of a big war bird
Up in the sky, a man in a plane
Baron von Richtofin was his name
Eighty men tried, and eighty men died
Now they're buried together on the countryside
Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron was rollin' out the score
Eighty men died tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron of Germany
In the nick of time, a hero arose
A funny-looking dog with a big black nose
He flew into the sky to seek revenge
But the Baron shot him down--"Curses, foiled again!"
Now, Snoopy had sworn that he'd get that man
So he asked the Great Pumpkin for a new battle plan
He challenged the German to a real dogfight
While the Baron was laughing, he got him in his sight
That Bloody Red Baron was in a fix
He'd tried everything, but he'd run out of tricks
Snoopy fired once, and he fired twice
And that Bloody Red Baron went spinning out of sight
(2) Return of the Red Baron
You remember that Baron flying high in the sky
Snoopy shot him down with a gleam in his eye
But that German had leaped from his blood red plane
Just before it burst into a ball of flame
Snoopy circled back to check his kill
Saw that bloody Red Baron standin' high on a hill
Then he swooped down low, shouted, "Curse you, Red Baron!"
The German shook his fist, you could hear him swear, "Ach, du Liebe"
Hey watch out there Snoopy, you're really in a mess
You thought you were through with that bloody Red Baron
But it looks like he's not down yet
Then a cry went up all over the land
The bloody Red Baron would strike again
But brave little Snoopy said, "Never fear"
As he headed for his plane all the people cheered
Snoopy blazed a trail straight across the sea
Searchin' in vain for his enemy
Then he found that German trying to fix his plane
A sweatin' and a busted, 'bout to go insane
Snoopy landed for a pistol duel
The Baron was worried, Snoopy was cool
He fired a shot then started to run
Before Snoopy had a chance to raise his gun
Hey watch out Red Baron, Snoopy is on your trail
One of these days he's gonna make you pay
And you'll go straight to -
Well, watch out Red Baron...
Well, watch out Red Baron...
...And you'll go straight to well
(3) Snoopy's Christmas
The news it came out in the First World War
The bloody Red Baron was flying once more
The Allied Command ignored all of its men
And called on Snoopy to do it again
Was the night before Christmas and forty below
When Snoopy went up in search of his foe
He spied the Red Baron and fiercely they fought
With ice on his wings, Snoopy knew he was caught
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ring out from the land
Asking peace of all the world
And good will to man
The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights
He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight
Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know
Or was it the bells from the village below
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man
The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine
And forced him to land behind the enemy lines
Snoopy was certain that this was the end
When the Baron cried out "Merry Christmas, mein friend!"
The Baron then offered a holiday toast
And Snoopy our hero saluted his host
And then with a roar they were both on their way
Each knowing they'd meet on some other day
