:在恒河沙数的歌曲中,《Careless whisper》一直是百听不厌的经典爱情歌曲之一。曾经看过George Michael早年的一次演唱会的录像,那时,他在台上忘情地唱,他的女友,一个华裔的女孩,在台上给他伴舞,乔治?迈克尔用一支口红在他女友背上写下“I love you”,这个留着络腮胡,性感、粗犷而又略带忧郁的男人,顿时成了很多人心目中的“情圣”,虽然他后来终于叛逃了传统的爱情阵营,但这首充满诡异情调的歌曲仍然堪称经典:“Time can never mind,the careless whisper of a good friend,to the heart and mind.ignorance is kind....I'll never gonna dance again the way i danced with you。(时光都被忽略了,无心快语传递在你我之间。我将不会再这样跳舞,以与你起舞的舞步)”
易感环境:舞曲一次次地结束,又一次次地响起,当初与我们共舞的人到哪里去了?没有了那个人,我们是否能够停得下来这不停旋转的舞步?为什么却又像是穿上了魔鞋一样,就只能够不停地旋转、旋转、旋转下去?因为身边有你。
歌词:《Careless Whisper 》
(中英对照版)
I feel so unsure 我没有丝毫把握
As I take your hand 当我牵着你的手
And lead you to the dance floor 带你步入舞池时
As the music dies 一曲终了
Something in your eyes 你眼中的遗憾
Calls to mind a silver screen 唤起了过去的一幕幕
And all its sad good-bye 但对这一切我只能伤感的说再见了
I'm never gonna dance again 我以后不会再跳舞
Guilty feet have got no rhythm 因为内疚的舞步毫无节奏
Though it's easy to pretend 尽管我内心的难过很容易掩饰
I know you're not a fool 但我知道你不是傻瓜
Should've known better than to cheat a friend 我本不该欺骗朋友的
And waste the chance that I've been given 我错过了本应该把握的机会
So I'm never gonna dance again 所以我打算不再跳舞
The way I danced with you 以不去重温与你走过的舞步
Time can never mend 时光永远无法弥补
The careless whispers of a good friend 好友间的无心细语
To the heart and mind 于内心深处
Ignorance is kind 无知是福
There's no comfort in the truth 真相只会让你难过
Pain is the whole you'll find 你发掘出的只会是痛苦
I'm never gonna dance again 我以后不会再跳舞
Guilty feet have got no rhythm 因为内疚的舞步毫无节奏
Though it's easy to pretend 尽管我内心的难过很容易掩饰
I know you're not a fool 但我知道你不是傻瓜
Should've known better than to cheat a friend 我本不该欺骗朋友的
And waste the chance that I've been given 我错过了本应该把握的机会
So I'm never gonna dance again 所以我打算不再跳舞
The way I danced with you 以不去重温与你走过的舞步
Never without your love 从此失去你的爱
Tonight the music seems so loud 今晚的音乐是如此的刺耳
I wish that we could lose this crowd 我希望我们能远离这喧嚣的人群
Maybe it's better this way 也许这样会好些
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say 我们所说的话将打动彼此的心(也会伤害彼此)
We could have been so good together 我们本好好的在一起的
We could have lived this dance forever 我们本可以让这舞曲无限延续
But now who's gonna dance with me 但今夜谁与我共舞
Please stay 请留步
And I'm never gonna dance again 因为我以后不打算再跳舞
Guilty feet have got no rhythm 因为内疚的舞步毫无节奏
Though it's easy to pretend 尽管我内心的难过很容易掩饰
I know you're not a fool 但我知道你不是傻瓜
Should've known better than to cheat a friend 我本不该欺骗朋友的
And waste the chance that I've been given 我错过了本应该把握的机会
So I'm never gonna dance again 所以我打算不再跳舞
The way I danced with you 以不去重温与你走过的舞步
(Now that you've gone) Now that you've gone 现在你走了
(Now that you've gone) Was what I did is so wrong 我所为是不是错误的
So wrong that you had to leave me alone 错到以至你离我而去
