Bread - If
BREAD(面包)是活跃于70年代的一支美国乐队,唱一些简单,干净的带些民谣色彩的歌曲。那些歌就象他们的名字一样,朴实,家常。粗条花纹的紧身衬衣,长长的鬓角,喇叭口的牛仔裤,是他们的装束,也是那个时代的标记。他们的声音出奇的温柔暖和,象是冬天坐在壁炉旁的地毯上的感觉。吉它是他们音乐的灵魂,就这么轻柔地拨动着,让人安静而又感动。
这首If,给人的感觉有些类似于Beatles乐队的[Imagine],就是那种安安静静地唱歌,有着浓浓的60年代的味道。那样的旋律似乎不应当从数字处理的CD机放出来,而是应该找一架像那种老式唱机来播放,最好还是带着些斑斑驳驳的沧桑的印痕~~.
If
Bread
If a picture paints a thousand words,
then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
if a face could launch a thousand ships,
then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you, You're all that's left me to.
And when my love for life is running dry,
you come and pour yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tommorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you. And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
then you and I would simply fly away...
