Taylor Swift - Sparks Fly 火花

雖然為了宣傳新專輯＜Reputation＞一直強調舊泰勒絲已死

尤其是將Look What You Made Me Do一曲作為專輯的首波主打

就是要讓全世界都知道泰勒絲改頭換面要東山再起了

然而近一場在Ohio的巡迴演唱會

她拿起了吉他，開始彈唱Sparks Fly

其實她還是那個浪漫的少女

只是隨著時間長大成熟了

The way you move is like a full-on rainstorm

你敏捷有如超級風暴

And I'm a house of cards

而我就像紙牌屋脆弱

You're the kind of reckless

魯莽的你

That should send me running

早該放我走

But I kinda know that I won't get far

但我也心知肚明自己離不開你

And you stood there in front of me

站在我前方的你

Just close enough to touch

近在咫尺

Close enough to hope you couldn't see

近得希望你看不透

What I was thinking of

我在想些什麼

Drop everything now

放下一切吧

Meet me in the pouring rain

在傾盆大雨下見我

Kiss me on the sidewalk

在人行道上親吻我

Take away the pain

奪走所有的痛苦

'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile

因為我每每在你的微笑中看見了火花

Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down

燈光退去，親愛的，你的綠眸依然閃耀

Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around

即使你不在身旁，仍然讓我痴痴難忘

'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile

因為從你的微笑，我看見了火花飛舞

My mind forgets to remind me

理智忘了提醒我

You're a bad idea

你絕不是個好主意

You touch me once and it's really something

我們一次的碰觸，便一發不可收拾

You find I'm even better than you imagined I would be

你發現我完全超乎你的想像

I'm on my guard for the rest of the world

唯獨和你在一起，我才放下所有的防備

But with you I know it's no good

我也知道這並不是件好事

And I could wait patiently but I really wish you would...

我願意痴痴的等待，但多麼渴望你能夠…

Drop everything now

放下身邊的一切

Meet me in the pouring rain

就為了在大雨中見我

Kiss me on the sidewalk

在人行道上吻我

Take away the pain

帶走所有的痛苦

'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile

因為你的微笑裡充滿了火花

Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down

燈光漸退，親愛的，你的綠眸

Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around

即使你不在我身旁，想到依然使我癡迷不已

'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile

因為我在你的微笑中看見了火花四射

I'll run my fingers through your hair

我的手指梳過你的頭髮

And watch the lights go wild

看著迷幻的燈光

Just keep on keeping your eyes on me

繼續凝視著我吧

It's just wrong enough to make it feel right

離譜的錯誤反倒又覺得合理極了

And lead me up the staircase

你的牽著我走上樓梯

Won't you whisper soft and slow?

不在我耳邊輕聲細語嗎

I'm captivated by you, baby, like a firework show

親愛的，你宛如一場煙火秀把我徹底迷倒了

Drop everything now

丟下一切吧

Meet me in the pouring rain

來暴雨下見我

Kiss me on the sidewalk

在人行道上親我

Take away the pain

帶走所有的鬱悶

'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile

每每你微笑，我便看見火花飛舞

Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down

燈光漸退，親愛的，你的眸子

Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around

讓我即使不在你身邊，都有繼續痴迷的理由

'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile

因為我在你的微笑中看見燦爛的火花

And the sparks fly...

五光十色

Oh, baby, smile...

你撩人的笑容

And the sparks fly...

充滿了迷幻的火花

我是覺得不用太懷念舊泰勒絲
因為她一定會給自己更多挑戰
做出超越以往、更驚豔的作品

Keala Settle - This Is Me 真實不過的我

完全不後悔當初自己一個人跑去看《大娛樂家》

音樂電影就是要在戲院享受環繞音響啊

《大娛樂家》的音樂超級無敵強大

歌聲柔美、歌詞又很有意境

讓人更期待之後的作品

Julia Michaels - Jump ft. Trippie Redd 栽

從許多訪談中可以看出Julia並不是那麼習慣被鎂光燈聚焦的生活
她喜歡音樂、喜歡寫歌、喜歡唱歌
但是那是因為她不得不透過音樂表達自己
粉絲、名氣、收入什麼的不過是剛好而已
她可以同時很大膽又很害羞
勇敢地寫出心中各種複雜的情緒
上台又不禁靦腆的笑了起來
她就是這麼可愛
