三月的第一個禮拜,小編要帶給大家的是鄉村靈魂歌手Darius Rucker
他可是在1986年就開始出道演唱,小編那時候都還沒出生呢!
那時的他主要是以樂團Hootie & the Blowfish為主,但比較沒沒無聞
直到2001年才單飛,並在2008年發表了第一張個人專輯《Learn to Live》
也開始了他在鄉村音樂的生涯。
這次小編要分享的是他第二張個人專輯《Charleston, SC 1966》
於2010年發佈,同時也是Darius Rucker的代表作〈This〉
Darius Rucker - This
戴利斯・路克 – 時刻
Got a baby girl sleeping in my bedroom
寶貝女兒安穩的睡在臥房裡
And her mama laughing in my arms
孩子的媽則在我懷裡笑開懷
There's the sound of rain on the rooftop
屋頂雨水落下的聲音
And the game's about to start
一場比賽即將開始
I don't really know how I got here
我真不曉得是如何走到這一步
But I'm sure glad that I did
但我很確幸有走到這
And it's crazy to think that one little thing
瘋狂的是一個小轉折
Could've changed all of it
卻能轉變我的一生
Maybe it didn't turn out like I planned
也許事情沒有如我計畫地有所改變
Maybe that's why I'm such, such a lucky man
也許這就是為甚麼我 是位如此幸運的人
For every stoplight I didn't make
因為每一道十字路口我都迷失方向
Every chance I did or I didn't take
每一次機會我都沒能把握
All the nights I went too far
有多少晚我做的太過分
All the girls that broke my heart
有多少位女孩令我心碎
All the doors that I had to close
有多少扇門因著我而關
All the things I knew but I didn't know
有多少件事但我都不知道
Thank God for all I missed
感謝主 這些我全都錯過
'Cause it led me here to this
因為這樣我才能走到這時刻
Like the girl that I loved in high school
像在高中喜歡的女生
Who said she could do better
她說我配不上她
Or that college I wanted to go to
或申請想就讀的大學
'Til I got that letter
直到收到落榜通知
All the fights and the tears and the heartache
所有奮鬥交織成淚水和心痛
I thought I'd never get through
我想我永遠不會成功
And the moment I almost gave up
就在這時候我幾乎想放棄
All lead me here to you
卻讓我在這時遇到妳
I didn't understand it way back when
我完全不曉得之前到底發生什麼事
But sitting here right now it all makes perfect sense
但現在想想 這一切突然都有了道理
Every stoplight I didn't make
每一道十字路口我都迷失方向
Every chance I did or I didn't take
每一次機會我都沒能把握
All the nights I went too far
有多少晚我做的太過分
All the girls that broke my heart
有多少位女孩令我心碎
All the doors that I had to close
有多少扇門因著我而關
All the things I knew but I didn't know
有多少件事但我都不知道
Thank God for all I missed
感謝主 這些我全都錯過
'Cause it led me here to this
因為這樣我才能走到這時刻
How I cried when my mama passed away
當媽媽去世時我淚如雨下
But now I've got an angel looking out for me today
但現在卻有位天使 在外頭守護著我
So nothing's a mistake
所以沒甚麼好怕的
Every stoplight I didn't make
每一道十字路口我都迷失方向
Every chance I did or I didn't take
每一次機會我都沒能把握
All the nights I went too far
有多少晚我做的太過分
All the girls that broke my heart
有多少位女孩令我心碎
All the doors that I had to close
有多少扇門因著我而關
All the things I knew but I didn't know
有多少件事但我都不知道
Thank God for all I missed
感謝主 這些我全都錯過
'Cause it led me here to this
因為這樣我才能走到這時刻
It led me here to this
我才能走到這時刻
小編覺得這首歌特別有味道,除了Darius Rucker的低沉嗓音之外
還加上有著一定的人生經歷和遇過大風大浪,而他做這首曲子時也43歲了
不難看出會有做這首歌的想法,而的確也很適合他,沒有枉費在音樂生涯20多年。
其實在同專輯中還有一首熱門單曲叫做〈Come Back Song〉
曲風跟〈This〉一樣屬於比較輕快,但又感覺像慢活也讓人很陶醉,有興趣的人可以先去聽聽看。
或者想等小編的翻譯再來聽也行唷。
