第一次知道詹姆斯布朗特,是那首传唱率极高的《you are beautiful》。而后搜到《Goodbye my lover》、《tears and rain》、《1973》、《so long Jimmy》、《stay the night》……然后就疯狂的喜欢上了这个时而沧桑,时而激昂高亢,妖娆而又真挚的声音。
百度有这样一句话很是吸引我:正在英国皇家骑兵护卫队任职上尉的詹姆斯,经常在寂静深夜爬上他的坦克,抱着吉他,仰望星空。
又有人说:直达心底的诉说,比震人耳膜的呐喊更加让人震撼。
他独特的嗓音,不为迎合主流大众的歌唱,让我为之着迷,经常在散步时循环播放。
trouble is her only friend
一直以来痛苦是她唯一的朋友
and he is back again
现在他回来了
makes her body older that it really is
遍体鳞伤的身躯背叛了她的年龄
and she says it's high time when she went away
她说着是时候离去了
no one's got much to say in this town
这城里的人早已吝啬着言语
trouble is the only way is down, down do down
当生命只剩痛苦,一起无尽沦陷
as strong as you were, tender you go
曾经多么坚强的你,如今如此脆弱的离去
I'm watching you breathing , for the last time
我就这样注视着你的呼吸,最后一次这样注视着你
a song for your heart, but when it is quiet
为你而唱的一首歌,可是在世界寂静的那一刻
I know what it means and I 'll carry you home
我明白了它的意义,我将带你走上回家的路
I'll carry you home
我将带你走上回家的路
If she had wings she would fly away
如果她有翅膀该多么美好,可以远远的飞走
and another day god will give her some
之后的某一天上帝把快乐带到她身边
......
and they all going crazy in new york city at night
她们出生的时候都是那么的漂亮,今夜璀璨的纽约
and someone 's little girl
某家的小女孩
was taken from the world to light
消失在世界的尽头
under the stars and stripes
绽放在无限的星光下
......
这首歌的背景是詹姆斯受士兵所托将的遗物回家乡。
