华南师范大学外文学院英语系04级学生。喜欢英文,喜欢听英文歌曲,一首好的英文歌曲不仅让我学到课文里学不到的知识,更让我体味到歌者的人生。令我陶醉的不仅仅是动人的旋律,找到每首歌的触动点,理解每首歌背后的故事才是我最大的享受。除了听歌还喜欢看看书,听歌让我觉得享受,看书让我觉得充实。

 


 我听之我见原来我对于Eric Clapton 的认识和大多数中国人一样,只停留在他获得格莱美奖的三首作品“Tears in heaven”、“Change the world”和“My father's eye”。当看了“Friends”第6季,Chandler和Monica在浪漫共舞, Eric Clapton悠悠地在耳边唱着“Wonderful tonight”,我对这首歌的爱油然而生。如果说,生活中美好的东西让我们向往让我们感动,那这美好就是……

    Lyrics       

Wonderful tonight                 byEric Clapton

It's late in the evening
She is wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up
And brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you.

It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys
And she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you are wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight."

   Words and phrases

1. make-up:“化妆、化妆品”,比如说,She never wears make-up.(她从来不化妆)

2. love light:想象一下,“如果看着自己心爱的人,眼睛都会闪闪发光”

3. I've got an aching head:我头疼,也可以说成“My head was aching”

4. help someone to bed:无论发生了什么事,这是一个倒装句,正常的顺序应该是:whatever may come。

5. turn to someone:服侍某人上床睡觉。

  中文歌词

美妙的夜晚       埃里克·克莱普顿

夜已深
她还在为着装发愁
薄施粉黛
梳罢金发
然后她问我,我看起来不错吧
我说,你今晚看起来美极了

我们去参加舞会
所有人的目光都投向
与我同行的丽人
然后她问我,你感觉还好吧
我说,我今晚感觉棒极了

感觉很美妙因为我看见了
你眼中闪烁的爱意
最妙的是
你却没有意识到
我有多爱你
