很早以前就想写一写这首歌,却一直未找到合适的时机,大概是连我自己都不懂∶这样浅显简单又不包含任何情绪的歌词为何藏著这样浓重的哀伤?
其实到现在都不敢说是完全明白了其中的奥妙。但冥冥之中有一种感觉,这种悲伤来源於歌手Lana Del Rey厌世而慵懒的嗓音,来源於庄严而沉重的配乐,再加上MV中演奏者夸张而呆板的动作,诡异的灯光,还有来自电影《Great Gatsby》中荒诞的狂欢背後埋藏的虚伪、虚荣、冷漠。
整首歌几乎都在不停询问: "will you still love me when I am no longer young and beautiful?" 但其实又何须一问。
答案当然是: "NO."
Young And Beautiful
Lana Del Rey
I've seen the world
Done it all
Had my cake now
Diamonds, brilliant
And Bel Air now
Hot summer nights, mid July
When you and I were forever wild
The crazy days, city lights
The way you'd play with me like a child
Will you still love me
When I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me
When I got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?
I've seen the world, lit it up
As my stage now
Channeling angels in the new age now
Hot summer days, rock 'n' roll
The way you play for me at your show
And all the ways I got to know
Your pretty face and electric soul
Will you still love me
When I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me
When I got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?
Dear lord, when I get to heaven
Please let me bring my man
When he comes tell me that you'll let him in
Father tell me if you can
Oh that grace, oh that body
Oh that face makes me wanna party
He's my sun, he makes me shine like diamonds
Will you still love me
When I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me
When I got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?
Will you still love me when I'm not young and beautiful?
