刚刚看了张信哲的麻辣天后宫,10月2日的节目……我还真的不是一般的滞后呀!节目的最后,丁晓雯拿出了阿哲第一次去滚石唱片试音时候的录的试唱碟,用碟不是很确切,卡带才对~~看着阿哲紧张兮兮的样子还以为会有点小恐怖,其实还好~那时的阿哲真民谣,现在在用心做男人、做王子,民谣已经离他有点遥远了,上个世纪的事情。这首歌就是bread的if。
这首if中还有一个小故事
"If a face could launch a thousand ships then where am I to go?“
腊神话里,丽妲与宙斯生了一个女儿,名叫海伦。由於海伦长得实在太美了,被派里斯王子抢走。海伦的丈夫在羞愤之馀,发动了上千艘船的兵力去营救海伦。而这句a face could launch a thousand ships就是《荷马史诗》里的关于特洛伊战争一节中关於斯巴达的皇后海伦貌美的形容。因为海伦的美貌,才有了这场战争。
希望阿哲也早日找到自己的心中所爱喽
If —— Bread
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 too.
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.
Tomorrow 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.
