原来没事喜欢逛一逛QQ音乐的Billboard和iTunes榜单,听到这首《We Are Young》大概就是那个时候。最初听到的版本就是Fun.的原唱版本,对于真正让这首歌大火起来的Glee Cast,倒没有怎么去了解。随着摇滚乐的发展新潮,很多摇滚乐队都已经不满足于传统的摇滚形式,所以类似于《We Are Young》这种流行与摇滚,主流与非主流融合的音乐应运而生。
今天推荐Mike Tompkins的翻唱版本,虽然搜索引擎上都把Mike Tompkins的这种音乐形式称作口技或是用“口技达人Mike Tompkins分饰12角激情纯人声beatbox翻唱Fun.乐队冠单We Are Young”这样的标题来吸引眼球,但严格意义上,这就是一首阿卡贝拉。
歌词:
Give me a second I
给我一些时间
I need to get my story straight
让我理清思绪
My friends are in the bathroom
死党醉倒在洗手间
Getting higher than the Empire State
已经悄然入天
My lover she's waiting for me just across the bar
爱人在酒吧那头等候
My seats been taken by some sunglasses
墨镜女占了我的位置
Asking 'bout a scar
谈起你我的情伤
And I know I gave it to you months ago
我知道我令你陷入情网
I know you're trying to forget
我知道你难忘伤痛
But between the drinks and subtle things
然而在酒醉金迷间
The holes in my apologies
我的道歉如此蹩脚
You know I'm trying hard to take it back
我想努力挽回你
So if by the time the bar closes
当酒吧打烊
And you feel like falling down
你的脚步蹒跚
I'll carry you home
我会带你回家
Tonight
今夜
We are young
花样年华的我们
So let's set the world on fire
将世界点燃
We can burn brighter
我们可以大放异彩
Than the sun

Now I know that I'm not all that you got
现在 我知道我已经不是你的真命天子
I guess that I just thought maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
我猜我只是想找到更好的方式和你分手
But our friends are back
但现在我的朋友们都回来了
So let's raise a toast
那我们可以放心的畅饮了
Cause I found someone to carry me home
