Satisfied是音樂劇 Alexander Hamilton 中由Angelica Schuyler 演唱的一首歌,描述Angelica在妹妹Eliza和Hamilton的婚禮上舉杯祝福時,回憶起初次遇見Hamilton的場景。


超喜歡Hamilton裡的Schuyler姐妹花!
大姊Angelica自信聰慧,二妹Eliza優雅溫柔,小妹Peggy則是天真可愛。有興趣的人可以先看看三姊妹出場歌The Schuyler Sisters (Schuyler姐妹)的介紹文。)

先來談談「Satisfied」這個詞在整部劇中的意象吧!
「Satisfied」這首歌可以說是貫穿了Angelica一生的主題曲。第一次在舞會上和Hamilton初次相遇時,Hamilton便被她充滿自信與企圖心的氣質吸引,兩人確實也非常相似登對,都是永遠不會安於現狀,不會滿足的人。儘管Angelica也非常欣賞Hamilton,但考量現實情況,加上Angelica發現妹妹Eliza已經無可救藥地愛上Hamilton了(Eliza的主題曲就是「Helpless」),Angelica選擇將Eliza介紹給Hamilton,並祝福他們永遠心滿意足( always be satisfied)。而做了決定的當下,她也知道Hamilton和自己將會永不滿足(never be satisfied)。

爾後在其他首歌Angelica也重覆唱出Hamilton永不知足(He will never be satisfied)這句話。在Hamilton出軌後,已經遠嫁歐洲的Angelica也趕了回來,很失望地對Hamilton說「You could never be satisfied...God, I hope you're satisfied(你真的永遠不懂滿足,我是多麼希望你可以知足)」。Angelica為了成全妹妹和Hamilton放棄了自己satisfied的機會,然而Hamilton始終學不會滿足。


「Satisfied」:同樣的場景,不同人歌唱,不同心境
作為Angelica的獨白曲,飾演Angelica的Renée Elise Goldsberry 整個演技大爆棚,尤其是回憶完後回神到婚禮上,再次為新郎和新娘獻上祝福時,歌聲中真的是滿溢哀傷阿QQ
除了豐沛的情感與歌聲外,這首曲子的舞台效果也令人驚艷,隨著Angelica的回憶,可以發現「Satisfied」這首歌和前幾首描寫舞會曲子(A winter's ball)以及描寫妹妹Eliza和Hamilton相戀歌曲(Helpless)的舞台場景是一樣的,只是換成以Angelica的視角,讓人更加感慨萬千。
有人做了Satisfied、 A winter's ball和Helpless的畫面對照,只能說這舞台設計真的巧妙


一起來欣賞一下這首歌的歌詞吧!
