Coldplay－溫柔的英式搖滾

A Message

My song is love
Love to the loveless shown
And it goes up
You don't have to be alone

Your heavy heart　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
Is made of stone
And it's so hard to see you clearly
You don't have to be on your own
You don't have to be on your own

And I'm not gonna take it back
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
You're the target that I'm aiming at　　　　　
Got to get that message home　　　　　　　　　　

My song is love　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
My song is love unknow　　　　　　　　　　　　　
But I'm on fire for you, clearly　　　　　　　
You don't have to be on your own
You don't have to be on your own

And I'm not gonna take it back
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
You're the target that I'm aiming at
And I'm nothing on my own
Got to get that message home

And I'm not gonna stand and wait
I'm not gonna leave it until it's much too late
On a platform, I'm gonna stand and say
That I'm nothing on my own
And I love you, please come home

My song is love, is love unknow
And I've got to get that message home

這首可愛到不行的歌收錄在Coldplay專輯X&Y中，
Coldplay是誰？
唱那個The Scientist的啊，
那個畫面老是在倒帶的ＭＶ，
一個金色短髮老外一邊唱著Nobody said it was easy...
還一邊學狼凹嗚～鬼叫的那個英國團體啊，
還不知道？
那那首Yellow呢？
聽他唱看那天上的星星，看它如何為你閃耀，還有你的所作所為，是的，全都是＂黃色的＂＠＠．．．

咳咳～本人翻譯功力太差，
還是請看倌待會看一下底下附的歌詞，
免得本來頗有深意的歌詞被我翻的有如在歌頌色情狂．．．



好啦，這下總算記起來了吧，
真的不知道？
那好，就從這首A Message聽起好啦，
節奏輕快歌詞簡明深情，一貫的Coldplay曲風。



有人說聽Coldplay讓人重拾年少時對音樂最初的熱情，
我將它解釋為Coldplay擅長捕捉成長後漸漸遺失的那份細微感動，
他們的歌有主題、有想法、有反省，
確實，英國樂團的作品的深度要比美國好上許多，
很奇怪的，英國雖是古國，很多藝術方面的發展卻很前衛，
早期如披頭四，Pink Floyd的The Dark Side of the Moon是多少＂中年人＂心中傳世的經典，
無奈在各種媒體百花爭妍的現代，
已經沒有任何一樣娛樂事業可以獨斷市場，
好處是紛呈萬象的電視電影音樂遊戲事業大行其道，
壞處是再也沒有足夠的信徒來支撐造神運動－－－這世界再也不會有下一個貓王，下一個披頭四了，
連最擅長包裝的政客、主義都在世人的顯微鏡下失去了光采－－－這世界正以什麼樣的速度奔向敗亡呢（笑），
說實話吧，我們是沒有故事的一代，
認清這個事實然後放下它需要多大的勇氣？
有人拋下這些幻影，不去在意觀眾，
一筆一筆記下自己和世界互動的吉光片羽，
哪怕只是多枝微末節的細微感觸，
在一旁觀看的我們，
能不能也記起那遺失多年的感動呢？
召喚自身的記憶就像孩童尋找遺失的玩具，
而我尋訪的路程，總和Coldplay有所交集。



　

The Scientist

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets
And ask me you questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles
Coming in tales
Heads are a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh take me back to the start


I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles
Chasing tails
And coming back as we are


Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
I'm going back to the start




Yellow

Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called "Yellow"

So then I took my turn
Oh what a thing to have done
And it was all "Yellow"

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
You know, you know I love you so
You know I love you so

I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh what a thing to do
Cos you were all "Yellow"

I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh what a thing to do
And it was all "Yellow"

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know

For you I'd bleed myself dry
For you I'd bleed myself dry
It's true

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine

Look at the stars

Look how they shine for you

And all the things that you do.
