She said we are all just prisoners here of our own device 她却说,我们在这里都是囚犯 , 为自己欲望负债 ▼ 《Hotel California(加州旅馆)》是二十世纪七十年代美国著名乡村摇滚乐队Eagles(老鹰乐队)的巅峰之作,单曲发行于1977年2月。 这首歌可以说是老鹰乐队在最佳状态、最佳组合之下完成的一首旷世之作。这首歌曲旋律优美动人,被世人广为传唱。单看歌词,只见寥寥数笔,便几乎把美国上世纪70年代所有的忧伤与迷惘卷携殆尽。 这首 《加州旅馆》 在1977年5月登上冠军位置,歌曲特殊之处在于Don Felder与Joe Walsh弹奏的双吉他效果。在《滚石》评出的最伟大的100首英文歌曲中名列第十一。 ▼ 1977年演唱现场(英语字幕) Hotel California(加州旅馆) On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair 行驶在昏黑的荒漠公路上,凉风吹过我的头发 Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air 温馨的大麻香弥漫在空气中 Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light 抬头遥望远方我看到微弱的灯光 My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim 我的头越来越沉 , 视线也变得模糊 I had to stop for the night 我不得不停下来过夜 There she stood in the doorway 她站在门口那儿招呼我 I heard the mission bell 我听到远处教堂的钟声 And I was thinking to myself 我在心里对自己说 This could be heaven or this could be hell 这里可能是天堂也可能是地狱 Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way 然后她点燃了蜡烛 给我引路 There were voices down the corridor 沿着走廊传来阵阵说话声 I thought I heard them say 我想我听到他们在说 Welcome to the hotel California 欢迎来到加州旅馆 Such a lovely place 如此美丽的地方 Such a lovely face 多么可爱的的面容 Plenty of room at the hotel California 加州旅馆有充足的房间 Any time of year you can find it here 一年的任何时候 , 你都能在这找到房间 Her mind is tiffany-twisted she got the mercedes bends 她的心为珠宝所扭曲,她拥有豪华奔驰车 She got a lot of pretty pretty boys that she calls friends 她有许多漂亮的小伙子,她称之为朋友 How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat 他们在庭院里翩翩起舞,夏日的香汗淋漓 Some dance to remember,some dance to forget 有些翩翩为回忆,有些翩翩为忘却 So I called up the captain 于是我叫来领班 Please bring me my wine 请给我来些酒 He said we haven t had that spirit here since 1969 他说道,他说我们这不供应列酒 从1969年起 And still those voices are calling from far away 远处仍然传来他们的话语 Wake you up in the middle of the night 在半夜把你吵醒 Just to hear them say 只听到他们在说 Welcome to the hotel California 欢迎到加州旅馆来 Such a lovely place 如此美丽的地方 Such a lovely face 多么可爱的的面容 They living it up at the hotel California 他们在加州旅馆尽情狂欢 What a nice surprise bring your alibis 好得令人吃惊 使你有来到这的借口 Mirrors on the ceiling 天花板上镶嵌着的镜子 The pink champagne on ice 冰镇着的粉色香槟 And she said we are all just prisoners here of our own device 她却说,我们在这里都是囚犯 , 为自己欲望负债 And in the master's chambers 在主厅大房间内 They gathered for the feast 人们举起狂欢之火 The stab it with their steely knives 他们用钢刀挥刺着 But they just can t kill the beast 却杀不死心中恶魔 Last thing I remember I was 我所记得的最后一件事 Running for the door 是我跑向门口 I had to find the passage back 我必须找到来时的路 To the place I was before 回到我过去的地方 Relax said the night man “放松点吧,”看门人说 We are programmed to receive 我们天生受诱惑 You can checkout any time you like 你可以随时结束 But you can never leave! 却永远无法摆脱! 本文由“欧美经典金曲”编辑整理
