[歌詞] Somewhere Only We Know - Keane


原唱Keane版本


Lily Allen版本


又是一首懷念過去的歌,該死,

沒有絢爛的配樂或華麗的唱腔,
簡簡單單,
帶給聽眾的感覺,
也如同過去那簡單的時光一樣,
再回不去了。


Somewhere Only We Know

我們的祕密基地

I walked across an empty land

穿過一片無人境地
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
我還清楚記得那條捷徑
I felt the earth beneath my feet
踩著土壤的感覺 還是那樣熟悉
Sat by the river and it made me complete
坐在河邊拼湊我的回憶
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
噢 那些單純的生活 再也回不去
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
我漸漸老成 需要一個可以寄託的地方
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
你準備好的時候請告訴我
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
我越來越疲倦 渴望回到最初的時光

I came across a fallen tree

經過橫倒著的大樹
I felt the branches of it looking at me
樹枝像是在看著我
Is this the place we used to love?
這是過去我們心愛的地方嗎
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
這是我一直嚮往的地方嗎
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
噢 那些單純的生活 再也回不去
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
我漸漸老成 需要一個可以寄託的地方
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
你準備好的時候請告訴我
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
我越來越疲倦 渴望回到最初的時光

And if you have a minute why don't we go

等你哪天終於有空 我們何不一起回去
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
聊聊只有我們知道的那些小事
This could be the end of everything
那些糾結或許早已雲淡風輕
So why don't we go
所以我們何不一起回去
Somewhere only we know?
我們的祕密基地
Somewhere only we know?
我們的祕密基地

Oh simple thing where have you gone?

噢 那些單純的生活 再也回不去
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
我漸漸老成 需要一個可以寄託的地方
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
你準備好的時候請告訴我
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
我越來越疲倦 渴望回到最初的時光
And if you have a minute why don't we go
等你哪天終於有空 我們何不一起回去
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
聊聊只有我們知道的那些小事
This could be the end of everything
那些糾結或許早已雲淡風輕
So why don't we go?
所以我們何不一起回去
So why don't we go?
所以我們何不一起回去

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah

This could be the end of everything

很多事終究會過去
So why don't we go
所以我們何不一起回去
Somewhere only we know?
我們的祕密基地
Somewhere only we know?
我們的祕密基地
Somewhere only we know?
我們的祕密基地

[歌詞] Selfie - The Chainsmokers





最近在spotify爆紅的一首歌,

個人覺得這首歌可以榮登我心裡2014低能的Top 3
(看歌名應該也可以猜到...)
沒什麼旋律,就是一個party animal的口白
因為是口白,所以我猜也不適合翻得太"文言"
儘量把它翻得口語一點好了...




Selfie - The Chainsmokers
自拍 - 老菸槍

When Jason was at the table
傑森在那張桌子的時候
I kept on seeing him look at me while he was with that other girl
他旁邊雖然有妞 但我知道他一直盯著我看
Do you think he was just doing that to make me jealous?
你覺得他這麼做 是故意要讓我吃醋嗎?
Because he was totally texting me all night last night
因為他昨晚跟我傳了一整個晚上的簡訊耶
and I don't know if it's a booty call or not
我不知道他是在炫耀戰利品還是怎樣
So... like what do you think?
所以...你覺得呢?
Did you think that girl was pretty?
那個女生漂亮嗎?
How did that girl even get in here?
保安怎麼可能放那個女的進來?
Do you see her?
你有看到她嗎?
She's so short and that dress is so tacky
她矮得要死又穿得超沒品味
Who wears Cheetah?
現在誰還穿豹紋啊?
It's not even summer, why does the DJ keep on playing "Summertime Sadness"?
現在又不是夏天,那個DJ幹嘛播"Summertime Sadness"?
After we go to the bathroom, can we go smoke a cigarette?
我們上完廁所可以去抽根菸嗎?
I really need one
我菸癮又犯了
But first,
等一下
LET ME TAKE A SELFIE
先來張自拍吧
[Beat drops]

Can you guys help me pick a filter?
你們可以幫我挑個濾鏡嗎?
I don't know if I should go with XX Pro or Valencia
我不知道要選 XX Pro還是Valencia (濾鏡的效果)
I wanna look tan
我想要看起來有小麥膚色
What should my caption be?
這張照片要加什麼說明啊?
I want it to be clever
要讓我看起來很有腦袋喔
How about "Livin' with my bitches, hash tag LIVE"
“跟我的(婊)姐妹們跑趴” 然後標 "生活" 怎麼樣?
I only got 10 likes in the last 5 minutes
發了五分鐘竟然只有10個讚
Do you think I should take it down?
你覺得我要不要把自拍刪掉啊?
LET ME TAKE ANOTHER SELFIE
再拍一張好了
[Beat drops]

Wait, pause, Jason just liked my selfie
等等,傑森剛剛按讚了
What a creep
太詭異了吧
Is that guy sleeping over there?
那個傢伙是睡在那邊嗎
Yeah, the one next to the girl with no shoes on
對,就是睡在沒穿鞋的那個女的旁邊的那個
That's so ratchet
太噁爛了吧
That girl is such a fake model
那個女的根本是假模特兒
She definitely bought all her Instagram followers
她百分之百收買了Instagram的所有粉絲
Who goes out on Mondays?
誰星期一出去跑趴啊?
OK, let's go take some shots
好吧,再來幾張自拍
Oh no, I feel like I'm gonna throw up
噢,等等,我覺得我快吐了
Oh wait, nevermind I'm fine
噢,沒事了,我OK的
Let's go dance
我們繼續去跳舞
There's no vodka at this table
這邊竟然沒有伏特加
Do you know anyone else here?
你知道還有誰來這邊嗎?
Oh my god, Jason just texted me
OMG,傑森傳訊息給我了
Should I go home with him?
我要不要跟他回家啊?
I guess I took a good selfie
我猜我剛剛那張自拍拍得很騷
Selfie [on repeat]
自拍 [重複]

LET ME TAKE A SELFIE
讓我再拍一張

[歌詞] Chinese - Lily Allen



Lily Allen算是我近期蠻喜歡的一個歌手
以前雖然常聽到她的歌,可是沒仔細聽過歌詞是什麼
最近才發現她的歌詞在西洋流行音樂中算比較有在描述內心世界的...
(看看spotify榜單,熱門榜幾乎都是party music...充滿性暗示跟髒字...)
外加自從跟英國結下孽緣(?)之後,就對英國腔跟英國充滿好感

這是一首充滿不捨跟思念的歌,

訴說著往日相處的那些枝微末節,
回頭才發現都是珍寶,
日後儘管再懷念,
竟很難再有機會參與彼此的生活了...


Chinese - Lily Allen

中國菜 - 莉莉艾倫


I see you from the sky
我從幾萬英呎的高空看往你的方向
And I wonder how long it'll take me to get home
不知道要離開多久才能再回來
I wait for an hour or so at the carousel
我等了一小時左右才拿到行李
I have a cigarette to pass the time 'cause the traffic's hell
在該死的車陣中點了根菸

I don't want anything more
我什麼也不想要
Than to see your face when you open the door
只想在到家的時候看到你打開門
You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea
你會為我做一份烤土司還有一杯熱茶
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
接著我們會叫中國菜外賣配上電視
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
明天還要一起去遛狗
And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk
午後可能只是閒話家常
I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep
然後我會很沒精神跑去睡個午覺
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
晚上又點了中國菜外賣配上電視

You wipe the tears from my eye
你擦拭我眼眶的淚水
And you say that all that it takes is a phone call
說就算很遠仍能打電話給我
I cry at the thought of being alone and then
但這種分離的孤單讓我哭個不停
I wonder how long it will take until I'm home again
不知道我什麼時候才會再回來

I don't want anything more
我什麼也不想要
Than to see your face when you open the door
只想在到家的時候看到你打開門
You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea
你會為我做一份烤土司還有一杯熱茶
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
接著我們會叫中國菜外賣配上電視

Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
明天還要一起去遛狗
And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk
午後可能只是閒話家常
I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep
然後我會很沒精神跑去睡個午覺
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
晚上又點了中國菜外賣配上電視

I know it doesn't seem so fair
我知道這好像沒什麼
But I'll send you a postcard when I get there
但我到的時候會寄明信片給你

I don't want anything more
我什麼也不想要
Than to see your face when you open the door
只想在到家的時候看到你打開門
You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea
你會為我做一份烤土司還有一杯熱茶
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
接著我們會叫中國菜外賣配上電視

Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
明天還要一起去遛狗
And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk
午後可能只是閒話家常
I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep
接著我會很沒精神然後去睡個午覺
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
晚上又點了中國菜外賣配上電視

[歌詞] Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars




第一次聽到這首歌,

是去年跟陳賺賺在Brisbane逛大街的時候,
一開始先是被MV吸引,這是什麼藝術啊?
畫得好漂亮好神奇。
後來回去找歌詞,覺得這個歌詞真是極好,
這種「眼中只有妳一人」的情歌,哪個女生聽了不心動?

而這位波多黎各裔加菲律賓裔的美國人 Bruno Mars,
長得也是蠻合我的眼緣,
我承認我的菜很廣啦,尤其去外面繞了一圈再回來,
審美觀有更大的改變,連我自己都捉摸不定!

太喜歡這個歌詞了,所以一定要翻譯一下,
網路上已經有很多翻譯版本,歡迎批評指教 :D


Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars
在我眼前的妳 - 火星人布魯諾

Her eyes her eyes
她的眼睛 閃爍的眼睛
Make the stars look like they're not shining
連滿天星斗也略顯遜色
Her hair her hair
她的秀髮 美麗的秀髮
Falls perfectly without her trying
完美襯托著她的臉龐
She's so beautiful
她是如此美麗
And I tell her everyday (yeah)
我無時無刻都這麼讚美她

I know I know
我知道 我明白
When I compliment her she won't believe me
她從來不相信我的讚美
And it's so it's so
這真是太打擊我了
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
她不知道我眼中的她有多麼美好
But every time she asks me "do I look okay?"
每次她問:「我看起來怎麼樣?」
I say
我總回答

When I see your face
當我凝視著妳
There's not a thing that I would change
妳是多麼的無懈可擊
'cause you're amazing
妳如此動人
Just the way you are
彷彿妳天生完美
And when you smile
當妳微笑時
The whole world stops and stares for a while
全世界都為妳停下腳步 注視著妳
'cause girl you're amazing
妳是如此動人
Just the way you are
在我眼前的妳

Her lips her lips

她的嘴唇 柔軟的嘴唇
I could kiss them all day if she let me
我可以親上一整天都不會膩 如果她願意
Her laugh her laugh

她的笑容 燦爛的笑容
She hates but I think it's so sexy
她不喜歡 但我覺得那性感極了
She's so beautiful
她是如此美麗
And I tell her everyday
我無時無刻都這麼讚美她
Oh you know you know you know
喔 妳清楚 妳知道
I'd never ask you to change
我絕對不會要求妳改變
If perfect is what you're searching for
如果妳要追求的是完美
Then just stay the same
那就是妳現在的樣子了
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
所以別再一直問我 妳看起來怎麼樣
'cause you know I'll say
因為妳知道我一定會說


When I see your face
當我凝視著妳
There's not a thing that I would change
妳是多麼的無懈可擊
'cause you're amazing
妳如此動人
Just the way you are
彷彿妳天生完美
And when you smile
當妳微笑時
The whole world stops and stares for a while
全世界都為妳停下腳步 注視著妳
'cause girl you're amazing
妳是如此動人
Just the way you are
在我眼前的妳

The way you are
妳天生完美
The way you are
在我眼前的妳

[歌詞] Hold On, We're Going Home - Drake






我不喜歡這首歌,

只是剛好聽到,又沒有中文翻譯,所以試翻一下。

一首充滿性暗示的歌(?),

感覺是一個男的在一段short-term romance中,
因為歌詞"It's hard to do these things alone" 
(有些事沒辦法一個人做,依前後文推測是指性愛)
You're the one (妳是"那一個"女孩)


Hold On, We're Going Home - Drake
等一等,我們快到家了 - Drake

I got my eyes on you

You left your mark on me

妳在我身上留下印記
I want your high love and emotion endlessly

因為妳知道妳是個好女孩
I know exactly who you could be
我很清楚知道妳有多美好

Just hold on we're going home

It's hard to do these things alone

It's hard to do these things alone (things alone)

You're the girl

You're the one
妳是那特別的女孩
Gave you everything I love

I think there's something, baby
我有某種預感,寶貝
