老歌亂談(689)Pontoon




先來聽Martina McBride在ACM ( Academy of Country Music ) 的Girls Night Out中演唱的這首《When Will I Be Loved》。



大家可能沒有注意到和Martina McBride合唱的兩男兩女,其實他們是美國鄉村音樂合唱團體Little Big Town,自1998成立迄今。2002出了首張同名專輯,但僅有兩首勉強入榜歌曲,成績不理想。2005換了東家至Equity Music Group,隨之出了第二張專輯《The Road to Here》,即獲得RIAA銷售超過百萬張的白金唱片認證 ( 金唱片為50萬張 )。2008,Equity關門大吉,又轉至Capitol ( Nashville ) 唱片公司。

此首《Pontoon》為Little Big Town 在2012推出的第5張專輯《Tornado》中首支發行的單曲,也是他們在告示牌鄉村榜的第一首冠軍曲。好運不來則以,一來是接踵而至,此曲也為Little Big Town在2013贏得了一座最佳鄉村雙人 / 團體演唱的葛萊美獎。

Pontoon的中譯是「浮橋」,此處看來是可供水上嬉戲浮橋式的平板船。

PS:此非老歌,就也當作是台長的個人收藏吧。



再來聽一首《Sober/清醒》,為《Tornado》專輯中的第4首單曲 (# 31)。和愛人依偎在一起,真的會讓人感到無限的幸福。「When I die - I don't wanna go sober」--- 縱使此時死去,也不願醒過來。呵呵,很美的意境。中文歌詞摘自【百度的解答】。



《Pontoon》
Back this hitch up into the water
Untie all the cables and rope
Step onto the AstroTurf
Get yourself a coozie
Let's go
Who said anything about skiin'?
Floatin' is all I wanna do
You can climb the ladder
Just don't rock the boat while I barbeque
On the pontoon
Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof
Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to
Party in slow motion
Out here in the open
Mm, motorboatin'
(Hoo hoo hoo)
Reach your hand down into the cooler
Don't drink it if the mountains aren't blue
Try to keep it steady as you recline on your black inner tube
Pontoon
Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof
Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to
Party in slow motion
Out here in the open
Mm, motorboatin'
(Hoo hoo hoo)
(Hoo hoo hoo)
Five mile an hour with aluminum side
Wood panelin' with a water slide
Can't beat the heat, so let's take a ride
On the pontoon
Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof
Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to
Party in slow motion
I'm out here in the open
Mm, motorboatin'
On the pontoon
(Hoo hoo hoo)
On the pontoon
(Hoo hoo hoo)
Back this hitch out into the water
On the pontoon
(Hoo hoo hoo)
(Hoo hoo hoo)

《Sober》
I wanna walk that line a little crooked
我就是想我的路有点波澜曲折
And live my life a little on the rise
这样我才能让我自己不断进取
Laugh at every time I fell
跌倒了,便尽管嘲笑吧
Not afraid of make a fool of myself
出点洋相又有什么所谓呢
And keep on dancing when the music stops
即使音乐声停了,我也要继续曼舞

'Cause I love being in love
因为我喜欢坠入爱河
It's the best kind of drug
这是最容易上瘾的快事
Drunk on the high
纵酒而醉
Leanin' on your shoulder
然后靠在你的肩头
Sweet like wine as it gets older
这种感觉想佳酿一样,时间越久便越甜美
When I die - I don't wanna go sober
就算是此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来
Oh when I die - I don't wanna go sober
就算此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来

You're like drinking from a never-ending bottle
你就像在喝一瓶喝不完的酒
When I think it's gone there's always a little more left
每次我以为没酒时,瓶里总会还剩一点
Lay back with you and close my eyes
与你一起躺下,然后合上双眼
Let the big ol' world just spin on by
任凭这世界天旋地转吧
And sayin' your name with my last breath
就算有最后一口气,我也要叫你的名字

'Cause I love being in love
因为我喜欢坠入爱河
It's the best kind of drug
这是最容易上瘾的快事
Drunk on the high
纵酒而醉
Leanin' on your shoulder
然后靠在你的肩头
Sweet like wine as it gets older
这种感觉像佳酿一样,时间越久便越甜美
When I die - I don't wanna go sober
就算是此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来
Oh when I die - I don't wanna go sober
就算此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来

I love being in love
我喜欢坠入爱河
It's the best kind of drug
这是最容易上瘾的快事
Drunk on the high,
纵酒而醉
leanin' on your shoulder
然后靠在你的肩头
Sweet like a wine as it gets older
这种感觉像佳酿一样,时间越久便越甜美
When I die I don't wanna go sober
就算此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来

Oh, I love being in love
噢,我喜欢坠入爱河
It's the best kind of drug
这是最容易上瘾的快事
Drunk on the high,
纵酒而醉
leanin' on your shoulder
然后靠在你的肩头
Sweet like a wine as it gets older
这种感觉像佳酿一样,时间越久便越甜美
When I die I don't wanna go sober
就算此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来

Oh, when I die, I don't wanna go sober.
Oh, when I die, I don't wanna go sober.
就算此际瞑目,我也不愿醒过来
