大马创作才女戴佩妮说过,写歌予她而言就像是在写日记,纪录她当下的生活。

美国创作小天后泰勒丝(Taylor Swift)也一样,以写歌方式来记录她的……每一段恋情。据说,每一次分手,她都会写一歌来“回敬”前任。

《Back to December》便是其中一首。

这是泰勒丝渐从乡村歌手转型至流行歌手时期的作品,收录在她于2010年10月25日发行的第三张专辑《Speak Now》中。她说,这首歌是自己第一次以歌曲的形式向人道歉。
 

在那不久前,她与泰勒洛纳(Taylor Lautner)——《暮光之城·Twilight》系列饰演痴情狼的那位男星,分了手。《Back to December》歌词表达了希望得到前任恋人对分手这件事的原谅之情。加上词中出现“你古铜色的皮肤,你甜美的微笑”,泰勒丝即使没有明言,但外界都认定这首歌便是她写给这位前男友的。

至于泰勒洛纳,则在多年之后,才终于承认关于这首歌的传言。

不谈八卦以歌论歌的话,《Back to December》这首管弦乡村流行抒情曲获得了乐评人的好评,不论歌词、旋律与演唱均获得了赞誉,更视为《Speak Now》的亮点之一。《Speak Now》在隔年便获得告示牌“年度最佳乡村专辑”。

《Back to December》
作词:Taylor Swift
作曲:Taylor Swift

I'm so glad you made time to see me
How's life? Tell me, how's your family?
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good, busier than ever
Small talk:work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why
Because the last time you saw me still
burn in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowing my pride,
standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you,
wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around and make it allright
I go back to December all the time

These days I haven't been sleepin'
Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughin' from the passenger side and
I realized I loved you in the fall
Then the cold came, the dark days
when fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

So this is me swallowing my pride,
standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom aint nothin' but missin' you,
wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December,
turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile
So good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
If we loved again I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand

This is me swallowing my pride,
standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December
It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you,
wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around and make it allright
i go back to December turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
All the time

【岁月有歌】1986年的今天:《张三的歌》

整理报道:朱运辉

传唱了这么多年,你可知道《张三的歌》并不是一首情歌?

《张三的歌》由李寿全主唱,收录在他于1986年8月1日发行的《8又二分之一》专辑中。

很多人也是因为这首歌而认识了李寿全的名字,其实他是台湾民谣时代的推动人,而这张专辑,更是中文流行音乐史上一张重要专辑。

《张三的歌》词曲创作者是李寿全的好友张子石,是首讲述段父子关系的作品,当年还是电影《父子关系》的主题曲(后入围了第23届金马奖最佳电影歌曲)。张子石当时刚移民美国,却遭遇婚变,办了离婚手续后,便得带着两个孩子流浪在异国他乡,颠沛流离,饱尝辛酸下,写下了这首歌。

而歌中的“张三”,其实也并非是张子石本人,只是寓意了所有张三李四一样的小人物,就如身边的你我他,毕竟生命的悲叹,无论何时何地何人,都可能发生。

李寿全表示,自己当时演唱这首歌时,情绪是还蛮悲戚的,不过在歌曲的最后,还是希望能够找到光亮。
《张三的歌》在不同年代,都有不少歌手进行了翻唱,资深歌手如蔡琴、齐秦等,都重编重录唱发行;新生代如萧敬腾、张悬,也在演出时全新演绎,各有各的风味,但同样令人感动。

《张三的歌》
作词:张子石
作曲:张子石
编曲:鲍比达

我要带你到处去飞翔
走遍世界各地去观赏
没有烦恼没有那悲伤
自由自在身心多开朗

忘掉痛苦忘掉那地方
我们一起启程去流浪
虽然没有华厦美衣裳
但是心里充满著希望

我们要飞到那遥远地方看一看
这世界并非那么凄凉
我们要飞到那遥远地方望一望
这世界还是一片的光亮
