8.Oasis——Falling Down
我不想表达绿洲的音乐给我带来的震撼,因为那种感觉是虚幻而又不真实,就像这一首歌。
初识Oasis的时候,自然不可避免的是wonderwall的沦陷。
很多乐队都是经历成员换来换去之后,最终解散。绿洲也没有逃过这个命运。这首歌是解散前最后一张专辑的最后一首歌。《Falling Down》以夏日太阳的沉沦作为契机。引带出灭世后的讽刺口吻,一如既往地嘲笑、不屑、愤怒,然后在希望中呼唤出全新的自由。
歌词的感觉是很与众不同的:
Summer sun, that blows my mind
夏日阳光,吹拂我心
Is falling down on all that I've ever known
降落在我熟悉的万物之上
Time will kiss the world goodbye
时间让世界停止转动
Falling down on all that I've ever known
降落在我熟悉的万物之上
Is all that I've ever known
这是我熟悉的一切
A dying scream makes no sound
垂死的尖叫虚弱无力
Calling out to all that I've ever known
呼唤熟悉的万物
Here am I, lost and found
我在这儿,迷失与寻找
Calling out to all.
呼唤万物
We live a dying dream
我们生活在垂死的梦境之中
If you know what I mean
如果你明白我的意思
And all that I've ever known
我所熟知的一切
It's all that I've ever known
我所熟知的一切
Catch the wheel that breaks the butterfly
抓住碾碎蝴蝶的轮子
I cried the rain that fills the ocean wide
我为雨水淹没大海而哭泣
I tried to talk with God to no avail
我试着和上帝交谈但徒劳而返
Calling up in and out of nowhere
唤醒上帝却发现无处容身
Said "if you won't save me, please don't waste my time"
我说:如果你不想拯救我,那么请别浪费我的时间
Catch the wheel that breaks the butterfly
抓住碾碎蝴蝶的轮子
I cried the rain that fills the ocean wide
我为雨水淹没大海而哭泣
I tried to talk with God to no avail
我试着和上帝交谈但徒劳而返
Calling up in and out of nowhere
唤醒上帝却发现无处容身
Said "if you won't save me, please don't waste my time"
我说:如果你不想拯救我,那么请别浪费我的时间
Summer sun, that blows my mind
夏日阳光,吹拂我心
Is falling down on all that I've ever known
降落在我熟悉的万物之上
Time will kiss the world goodbye
时间让世界停止转动
Falling down on all that I've ever known
降落在我熟悉的万物之上
Is all that I've ever known
这是我熟悉的一切
