一首经典不衰的老歌IF(bread)
第一注意到这首歌是在韩国电影《色即是空》中,男主角在出租房内照顾刚流产的女主角温馨伤感的画面让我很是感动,适时出现的音乐声更加烘托出了这种感觉。后来找到这个歌自己觉得汗死,这么经典的老歌居然没有听过!!
BREAD(面包)是活跃于70年代的一支美国乐队,唱一些简单,乾净的带些民谣色彩的歌曲。他们的声音出奇的温柔纯净,象是一股清风拂面而过。吉它是他们音乐的灵魂,就这么轻柔地拨动着,让人安静而又感动。你会蓦然地有一种与他们熟识已久的感觉。总有些歌能唱到人的心里,比如bread的这首If,给人的感觉有些类似于列侬的,就是那种安安静静地唱歌,有着浓浓的60年代的味道。那样的旋律似乎不应当从数字处理的CD机放出来,而是应该找一架像那种老式唱机来播放,最好还是带着些斑斑驳驳的沧桑的印痕.
"if a picture paints a thousand words,
then why can't i paint you?
the words will never show the you i've come to know.
if a face could launch a thousand ships,
then where am i to go?
there's no one home but you, you're all that's left me to.
and when my love for life is running dry,
you come and pour yourself on me.
if a man could be two places at one time,
i'd be with you.
tommorrow and today, beside you all the way.
if the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
i'd spend the end with you. and when the world was through,
then one by one the stars would all go out,
then you and i would simply fly away....."
