这首歌是电影《这个杀手不太冷》(Leon-The Professional)的主题曲。这部经典的电影,我想不用介绍了吧。如果你还没看过,那我强烈推荐你去看。 Shape of my heart起源于占卜的纸牌本来就含着些命运的深意,被诗人般的歌手配成电影的片尾曲,天衣无缝——心,该是鲜红跳动的桃形,扑克牌中只有红桃像它,那是爱的象征。权力(黑桃)、金钱(方片)、武力(梅花)都非我心所愿。而只有真心,只有爱,是我一直所追求的。 歌曲就是Leon的内心独白。一个职业杀手,生活在自己的世界里。曾经有过刻骨铭心的爱,可在永远失去爱人后,开始了一个人的旅程。不知道他为什么选择杀手这条路。对于杀手,爱只是个包袱。他习惯独来独往,一个人去超市,一个人喝牛奶,一个人坐在椅子上,睁着一只眼睛睡觉,无牵无挂。可是,在他为马蒂尔达开门的那一刻,一切都变了。 大都看完电影的人包括我,都会思考,Leno对马蒂尔达究竟是什么样的感情,可以说是父亲、朋友、情人……不过这些都不重要,不管是哪一种爱,都出自内心最深处。就像歌直到最后,也没有说出究竟什么才是心的形状。
试听:Shape of my heart-Sting
歌词: He deals the cards as a meditation And those he plays never suspect He doesn’t play for the money he wins He doesn’t play for the respect He deals the cards to find the answer The sacred geometry of chance The hidden law of probable outcome The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that’s not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds He may lay the queen of spades He may conceal a king in his hand While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that’s not the shape of my heart That’s not the shape, the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you You’d maybe think there’s something wrong I’m not a man of too many faces The mask I wear is one Those who speak know nothing And find out to their cost Like those who curse their luck in too many places And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that’s not the shape of my heart That’s not the shape of my heart That’s not the shape, the shape of my heart
When you believe,第七十一届奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲 《埃及王子》(Prince Of Egypt, The)向人们讲述了犹太人先知摩西如何带领犹太人走出埃及的故事,与《圣经》所不同的是,这是一个相对完整的故事,带领犹太人的先知摩西不再是80岁的老叟,而是时值壮年的“王子”,影片一改动画片只能够体现喜剧色彩故事的模式,将这部影片拍成了一部彻彻底底的正剧,片中人物形象饱满,绘制精心,充满艺术性,它将普通电影镜头语言和动画片画面语言的特点完美地结合了起来,大场面丝毫不逊色于一些动作大片。 »» 点击浏览全文 »»»»»»
派拉蒙新片“Charlotte’s web”(《夏洛特的网》)是一部温馨的童话。美丽的故事里,有一个善良的小女孩,一头不以貌取人的小猪和一只遵守诺言的蜘蛛。她们共同为我们打造了一个“平凡奇迹”。主题曲“平凡奇迹”歌词的内容与电影的情节配合的十分出色,在故事进展中,歌曲旋律也曾多次出现,烘托影片气氛,整首歌曲为影片增色不少。 “It’s not that unusual When everything is beautiful” 是啊,正如歌词里唱的那样,生活中的奇迹与感动其时无处不在,只是越来越被生活所累得我们似乎很少再有心思去发现和欣赏这些简单的美好了 »» 点击浏览全文 »»»»»»
