老歌亂談(674)Wild World



昨天晚上,無意間轉到HBO電影台,結果看了大半部的《Rock the Kasbah》( 台譯:沙漠搖滾夢 ),講一位音樂經紀人 ( 比爾墨瑞飾 ) 在普什圖發現一位聲音有如天籟的少女,然後帶她參加在喀布爾的「阿富汗之星」歌唱選秀節目。影片中還有布魯斯威利和甜姐兒凱特哈德森,比較詫異的是,感覺甜姐兒的胸部變豐滿了。「此長彼消」,或許這是造成小布 --- 布萊德彼特安潔莉娜裘莉分手並和甜姐兒在一起的原因之一 ( 裘莉之前不是為了預防罹乳癌,先自行切除了乳房?)。哈哈,這是亂扯的啦!不過,小布是有和甜姐兒在約會。影片中出現了多首的老歌,但這首《Wild World》是聽到後才又再想起來的。



《Wild World》是英國歌手兼詞曲作家Cat Stevens於1970發行的第4張專輯《Tea for thr Tillerman》中的歌曲。當時Cat Stevens和美國演員Patti D'Arbanville正在發展男女朋友的關係,Cat Stevens寫了好幾首關於她的歌,其中也包含了這首《Wild World》,可惜倆人的關係並未因情歌而緊緊相繫,只維持了2年左右。

上述專輯中另包含了多首Cat Stevens的知名歌曲,造成了專輯的熱銷。《Wild World》另發行的單曲,雖然只獲得美國排行榜的第11名,但卻是使他成為國際知名歌手的重要歌曲。




Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you want to start something new
And it's breaking my heart you're leaving
Baby, I'm grieving
But if you want to leave, take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breaking my heart in two
'Cause I never want to see you sad girl
Don't be a bad girl
But if you want to leave take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
Beware

Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child, girl
Baby I love you, but if you want to leave take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad
And beware, beware

Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child, girl
