Space - The Ballad of Tom Jones
其实，我认为Space的这张"Tin Planet"专辑是张破碟。但这首"The Ballad of Tom Jones"却出奇地令我着迷。我喜欢Cerys Matthews 那慵懒的女声，还有他们充满敌意的对话，看看他们说了什么：What did I do wrong
我做错什么了吗
Oh, you nearly drove me cuckoo
噢，你几近让我疯狂
Am I really all that bad
我真那么坏吗
You're worse than Hannibal Lector, Charlie Manson, Freddie Kruger
你比Hannibal Lector, Charlie Manson, Freddie Kruger他们都坏
Why are we still together
为什么我们仍要在一起
Oh, I can’t leave you till you’re dead
噢，直到你死我才离开你
You mean till death do us part
你意思是死才能把我们分开
I mean like cyanide, strangulation or an axe through your head
我意思是用氰化物毒死你，勒紧你的脖子，或用斧子砍你的头
It was lucky for us I turned the radio on
好在我们打开了收音机
They say that music soothes the savage beast
他们说那音乐能抚慰残忍的野兽
There was something in that voice that stopped us seeing red
那声音中有某样东西阻止了我们互相残杀
The two of us would surely have ended up dead
我们两人差点就结束了生命
You stopped us from killing each other
你阻止我们杀害对方
(Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
You’ll never know but you saved our lives
你永远都不晓得是你救了我们的命
(Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
I’ve never thrown my knickers at you
我从不把我的灯笼裤扔向你
And I don’t come from Wales
我也不是从威尔士来的
Still haven’t solved our problem
仍然没有解决我们的问题
You mean we hate each others guts
你意思是我们冤家路窄
Still wanna poison your pizza
仍然想在你的披萨中下毒
And I still wanna cut off your nuts
我也仍然想截断你
I’ve phoned the marriage guidance
我已经打电话去咨询我们的婚姻
I tied the phone line round your neck
我用电话线缠住你的脖子
I’m sick of all this hatred
对这种怨恨我觉得恶心
Oh, that’ll be the arsenic making you sick
噢，是砒素令你觉得恶心
You were about to drive me over the edge of a cliff
你的车载着我正要驶向悬崖
As I tried to jump out I knocked the stereo on
当我要跳出去时，撞开了音响
You changed your mind and then slammed on the brakes
你改变了想法，刹住了车
It was lucky for us we’d brought his greatest hits
好在我们带了他(Tom Jones)最热门的专辑
You stopped us from killing each other
你阻止我们杀害对方
(Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
You’ll never know but you saved our lives
你永远都不晓得是你救了我们的命
(Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
I’ve never thrown my knickers at you
我从不把我的灯笼裤扔向你
And I don’t come from Wales
我也不是从威尔士来的
And now our war is over
现在我俩的战争结束了
I’ve lost the urge to break your neck
我已没有断你脖子的冲动
I owe my life to What’s New Pussy Cat
"What's New Pussy Cat"这首歌救了我的命
Delilah stopped me hating you and wishing you dead
"Delilah"这首歌阻止我憎恨你，咒你死
Oh, I used to call you Satan
噢，我曾经称你为撒旦
And you were Cruella De Ville
我则叫过你Cruella De Ville
And now I’m not your Lucifer
现在我不再是你的恶魔
I am just your pussy cat
我只是你的猫咪
But just a word of warning now
但现在这只是警告
Just in case we ever get tired of his voice
只是以防我们听厌了他的歌声
I know the Mafia, Godzilla, King Kong
我认得Mafia,Godzilla和King Kong
And I know an atom bomb that’s going for a song
我也知道是原子弹让一首歌有了力量
因为Tom Jones的音乐，让一对本来相互敌视的夫妇重拾了他们的爱。不得不感叹，音乐对我们的生活确实有很大的魔力。 啊
我喜欢这歌
那个MV也好玩,真不错
那个女的是那个什么什么乐团的主唱吧 "make hay not war, make hay not war~~~~~~"
就是catatonia主音。
