清凉海风:Talk of the town
[ 2006-07-25 21:00 ]

 歌曲背景唱歌时,小猴乔治正准备离开森林去“黄草帽”口中的繁华小镇。小猴乔治是阿甘小时最喜欢的童话人物。

 本网小评这个夏天很闷热,空气凝滞,身体黏湿,于是,我们很需要这样一种音乐——它能够营造一种清新恬适的氛围;同时,它必须充满智慧,给晕热的头脑撒播一点清凉;此外,在恰当的时候,它还能抛出一点点童趣、一点点不合规则的节拍,让迟钝的心变得活跃异常……

  Lyrics     

阿甘小时最喜欢的童话人物——好奇的小猴乔治

Talk of the Town

I want to be where the talk of the town
Is about last night when the sun went down
Yeah
And the trees are dancing and the warm wind blows

And the same old time
And the water below gives a gift to the sky
And the clouds give back every time they cry
Make the grass grow green beneath my toes
And if the sunpops out
I'll paint a picture all about
The colours I've been dreaming of
The hours just don't seem enough
To put it all together
Maybe it's as strange as it seems mmm mmm

And the trouble I find is that the trouble finds me
It's a part of my mind it begins with a dream
And the feeling I get when I look in a sea
That this world is a puzzle
Find all the pieces
Andput it all together
Then I rearrange it

2006年《好奇的小猴乔治》被搬上荧幕

I follow it forever
Always as strange as it seems mmm mm

Nobody ever told me not to try
Not to try
Always try
Always try

And the water below gives a gift to the sky
And the clouds give back every time they cry
Make the grass grow green beneath my toes
And if the sun comes out
I'll paint a picture all about
The colours I've been dreaming of
The hours just don't seem enough
Put it all together
Always be as strange as it seems

I said
Hooo hoo hohohoohhohooooo

  Words and phrases

1. pop out:当用一只小猴子的眼光来打量初升的朝阳时,“pop out”用在这里很精彩,充满动感和童趣

pop原指“短促、尖利的爆裂声”,可引申为to move quickly or unexpectedly; appear abruptly(突然出现,出其不意闯入眼帘),歌词中的pop out正表达此意。请看例句:

The rabbit pop out as soon as we open the hutch.(我们一打开兔笼, 兔子就一下子蹦了出来。)

2. put together:拼凑,整理,组合
