↓ LYRICS ↓

Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man mad
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no one else had
Wow!

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
Wow!

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

(Venus was her name)

Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it

麵包合唱團（Bread）

1970 年代著名的軟搖滾樂團「麵包合唱團」（Bread）背後有鮮為人知的辛酸歷史。儘管他們的音樂以溫柔、和諧著稱，但樂團內部卻充滿了痛苦的爭執、怨恨與法律訴訟。

BREAD- Greatest Hits Album

WHAT HAPPENED TO BREAD?
https://www.youtube.com/@Band-History?sub_confirmation=1
=======
What happened to Bread, the soft-rock giants who defined the sound of the early nineteen seventies? They gave the world romantic classics like Make It With You, Everything I Own, and Baby I Am A Want You—songs that shaped weddings, first loves, and memories across an entire generation. But behind the gentle harmonies was a silent war: creative jealousy, legal battles, bitter feuds, and a breakup that shattered the band forever.

This deep-dive documentary uncovers how Bread rose from quiet studio project to chart-topping phenomenon—and why the partnership between David Gates and James Griffin collapsed under the weight of success. From their greatest hits to their most painful conflicts, here is the full story of how harmony turned into heartbreak.

Songs and moments featured:
Make It With You
It Does Not Matter To Me
If
Let Your Love Go
Baby I Am A Want You
Everything I Own
Diary
The Guitar Man
Sweet Surrender
Aubrey
Lost Without Your Love
