电影《来跳舞吧》插曲--《Book of Love》爱之书
《来跳舞吧》的配曲《Book of Love》似爱人耳边的低语,柔情似水,温情脉脉。但两者都非常贴切地表达了片中人物的情感需求和申诉。中年危机不是一个人的问题,但John却把这个问题包揽旗下,将妻子和子女排除在外,自己一个人寻求出路。而他所寻求的出路起初确实只是处于对舞蹈老师的好感,并非出于舞蹈本身,所以他不仅不能体会到舞蹈给生活所带来的快乐,但无法体会妻子被蒙在鼓里的那种困惑和忧虑,如果不是舞蹈老师一番严词训斥,也许他的路会越走越弯,直至后果不堪设想。
Book of Love爱之书
演唱:Peter Gabriel
The book of love is long and boring.
No one can lift the damn thing.
It's full of charts and facts and figures
and instructions for dancing.
But I love it when you read to me.
And you, you can read me anything.
爱之书既长又闷
谁都无法领着该死的东西生动有趣
书里满是跟舞蹈有关的图表、事实、数据
以及教学
但我喜欢你为我朗读这本书
而你,你可以读任何书给我听
The book of love has music in it.
In fact, that's where music comes from.
Some of it's just transcendental,
Some of it's just really dumb.
But I love it when you sing to me
And you, you can sing me anything.
爱之书里有乐声飘扬
实际上,书就是音乐的源头
有的乐曲抽象模糊
有的乐曲愚蠢至极
但我喜欢你唱给我听
而你,你可以唱任何歌给我听
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago.
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know.
I love it when you give me things
And you, you ought to give me wedding rings.
And I, I love it when you give me things
And you, you ought to give me wedding rings.
爱之书既长又闷
历史悠久
书里满是鲜花和心形盒子
还有很多我们这个年纪不懂的东西
我喜欢你给我的东西
而你,你应该给我婚戒
而我,我喜欢你给我的东西
而你,你应该给我婚戒
