简介

《American Pie》堪称一首史诗式的作踏墓海品，纵观全球乐坛，能将一首长达8分34秒的歌曲唱得不仅不让人生厌，还让人们津津乐道并传颂几十年的现象可谓少之又少，而唐 ·麦克林和他誉达射颈备盼炼的《American Pie》耻验欠就做到了，如果作品里没海邀有引人入胜的叙事性、没有内蕴幽远的深刻性，很乃狼难相信人们真会傻呆呆地将这么长的时间消耗在一首歌曲里。
《American Pie》是放尝用音乐记录美国六十年代历史的一首史诗，没有春风得意的赞美，也没有针锋相对的批判，有的只是在轻快的民谣节奏中娓娓地道来—埋嫌欢—那里面有整整一个时代美国人所见、所思、所想，以及所经历的往事，而事实上正是这样不带主观评述的质朴歌声，最终打动了一代又一代的美国人，甚至是美国以外的人。

A long long time ago I can still remember how that music used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while But February made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride But something touched me deep inside The day the music died So Bye-bye' Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Did you write the Book of Love And do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so Do you believe in rock 'n roll Can music save your mortal soul And can you teach me how to dance real slow Well' I know that you're in love with him Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym You both kicked off your shoes Man' I dig those rhythm and blues I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck But I knew I was out of luck The day the music died I started singin' Bye-bye' Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Now for ten years we've been on our own And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone But that's not how it used to be When the jester sang for the King and Queen In a coat he borrowed from James Dean And a voice that came from you and me Oh' and while the King was looking down The jester stole his thorny crown The courtroom was adjourned No verdict was returned And while Lennon read a book of Marx The quartet practiced in the park And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died Helter Skelter in a summer swelter The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter Eight miles high and falling fastIt landed foul out on the grass The players tried for a forward pass With the jester on the sidelines in a cast Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While the Sergeants played a marching tune We all got up to dance Oh' but we never got the chance Cause the players tried to take the field The marching band refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the music died We started singing Bye-bye' Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Oh' and there we were all in one place A generation Lost in Space With no time left to start again So come on' Jack be nimble' Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candlestick Cause fire is the Devil's only friend Oh' and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage No angel born in hell Could break that Satan's spell And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial rite I saw Satan laughing with delight The day the music died He was singing Bye-bye' Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away I went down to the sacred store Where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play And in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried' and the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken The church bells all were broken And the three men I admire most The Father' Son and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died And they were singing Bye-bye' Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die They were singing bye-bye' Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die | 我依然记得从前那段时光 音乐总使我脸上泛起微笑 而我知道假如我有机会 让那些人翩翩起舞 或许他们会开心一阵子 但二月让我不停颤抖 伴随我送出的每份报纸 坏消息躺在门口 我动弹不得 我记不起自己是否哭过 在我得知他遗孀的消息时 但有些事深深触动了我 那一天 音乐已死去 那么 再见吧 美国派小姐 开着我的雪弗兰前往堤岸 然而堤岸早就干涸 那些老男孩喝着黑麦威士忌 唱着：有朝一日我将逝去 有朝一日我将逝去 爱之书是你写的吗 假如圣经告诉你这些 你会信仰上帝吗 你会相信摇滚吗 音乐能拯救你终将死去的灵魂吗 你能教我怎么慢慢舞蹈吗 好吧 我知道你已经爱上了他 因为我看到你们在健身房双双起舞 还踢掉了你们的舞鞋 哥们 我终于搞懂了节奏蓝调 我曾是个孤独少年 伴着一朵粉色康乃馨和一辆皮卡车 但我知道自己不够幸运 那一天 音乐已死去 我开始歌唱 再见吧 美国派小姐 开着我的雪弗兰前往堤岸 然而堤岸早就干涸 那些老男孩喝着黑麦威士忌 唱着：有朝一日我将逝去 有朝一日我将逝去 十年后的现在属于我们 滚石上生长着苔藓 但已不是当年的样子 当那小丑向国王与王后献唱时 他穿着向詹姆斯迪恩借来的外套 声音却来自你我之间 哦，当国王点头之时 那小丑盗走了他的荆棘王冠 法庭休庭了 没有判决返还 当列侬读马克思时 四重奏在公园上演 我们于黑暗之中唱起挽歌 在音乐死去的那天 杀人王曼森在炎炎夏日出没 飞鸟乐队飞过沉降物掩蔽所 从八英里高的地方急速坠下 最终落在草地上 球员们试着传球前进 场边坐着那个小丑 中场休息时的空气又香又甜 此时中士吹响了进行曲 我们都起身跳舞 哦，但我们再无机会了 因为球员即将上场 军乐队拒绝让步 你是否会想起什么？ 那一天 音乐已死去 开始唱着 再见吧 美国派小姐 开着我的雪弗兰前往堤岸 然而堤岸早已干涸 那些老男孩喝着黑麦威士忌 唱着：有朝一日我将逝去 有朝一日我将逝去 哦，我们曾聚在一处 在太空中迷失的一代 已没有时间重来 所以加油啊 杰克快点儿 再快点儿 杰克弗莱士坐在烛台 因为火焰是魔鬼唯一的朋友 哦，当我看到他在舞台上 我双手愤怒地握紧拳头 没有天使生于地狱 怎能打碎撒旦的诅咒 火焰升到夜空中 照亮了整个祭祀仪式 我看见撒旦得意的笑 那一天 音乐已死去 他唱着 再见吧 美国派小姐 开着我的雪弗兰前往堤岸 然而堤岸早已干涸 那些老男孩喝着黑麦威士忌 唱着：有朝一日我将逝去 有朝一日我将逝去 我遇见一个唱蓝调的姑娘 我问她 是否有好消息 而她只是笑着转身离去 我又走到那家唱片店 多年前我曾在这儿听过音乐 但那儿的人告诉我 音乐再也不会播放 在街上 孩子们高声尖叫着 情侣们哭泣着 而诗人们做着梦 却都一言不发 教堂的钟都被打破 而我最欣赏三个人 圣父 圣子和圣灵 他们赶上了前往海岸的最后一班列车 那一天 音乐已死去 他们唱着再见吧 美国派小姐 开着我的雪弗兰前往堤岸 然而堤岸早已干涸 那些老男孩喝着黑麦威士忌 唱着 有朝一日我将逝去 有朝一日我将逝去 他们唱着：再见吧 美国派小姐 开着我的雪弗兰前往堤岸 然而堤岸早已干涸 那些老男孩喝着黑麦威士忌 唱着：有朝一日我将逝去 |
