Mika - Stuck in the Middle
苗儿 发表于 2008-02-10 06:12:09
Mika长的真好看啊。眼睛大又黑(or 棕？)，头发柔又卷，身材修又长。蹦跶起来浑身都是活力。这个1983年出生在黎巴嫩贝鲁特继而生活在巴黎和伦敦的小子，是我隔一段时间就会翻出来听的年轻人。我的这个习惯从他出道以来就没有改变。
今天出街，The Body Shop里在放他的歌，后来去New Look，也在放他的歌。我在店里禁不住要跟着唱起来，Stuck in the Middle是我最喜欢的作品，钢琴如此如此华丽。很带劲。看了歌词，原来是关于成长的。其实整张专辑都是关于成长的，"coming-of-age theme"。
Stuck in the Middle，夹在中间儿，一方面是说自己不大不小的状态。not a boy but not yet a man. 另一方面也是指他对父母的爱恨夹杂的情绪。他坐着想象他的父母要去世的情景，因为他们眼睛边上的皱纹让他想起了这些。
这首歌表达了一种矛盾的态度。他意识到自己的长大，意识到父母的衰老。他爱他的父母，但是他厌恶家里的一些事情，他个人的叛逆和家庭的传统格格不入。他知道自己是年轻而强壮的，"my troops are bigger than yours, you'll never stand my fight." 那么chorus的意思呢？他希望家里有人能相信他，接受和爱他原本的样子，而不是企图改造他。"Who will have me, just to love me."
这歌词写的非常细腻。的确是很复杂的情感。恐怕卡夫卡对他父亲的情感也是一样。
偶尔我也有这样的感受。（好吧我把自己和Mika & Kafka在这一点上等同起来了。）

I sit and think about the day that you’re gonna die,
‘Cos your wrinkled eyes betrayed the joy with which you smiled.
Care to see my reason?
Care to put your life in mine?
Looking at life from the perspective of a boy
Who’s learnt to love you but has also learned to grow.
Could we make it better, stormy weather,
So I dunno.
Oh, oh, oh – Is there anybody home?
Who will believe me, won’t deceive me, who’ll try to change me?
Ah, ah, ah – Is there anybody home?
Who wants to have me, just to love me?
Stuck in the middle.
I look at you, you look at me,
We bite each other.
And with your bitter words you kick me in the gutter.
But my troops are bigger than yours
You'll never stand my fight.
Ours is a family that’s based upon tradition
But with my careless words I tread upon your vision.
Are five kids better than one, who doesn't like to be gone?
Oh, oh, oh – Is there anybody home?
Who’ll believe me, won’t deceive me, who’ll try to change me?
Ah, ah, ah – Is there anybody home?
Who wants to have me, just to love me?
Stuck in the middle.
Yea... Yea... Yea...
This is to my name,
This ain’t a great plan to break your heart out of me.
I know that what I’ve started means that when we have parted
I can live in honesty.
Oh, oh, oh – Is there anybody home?
Who’ll believe me, won’t deceive me, who’ll try to change me?
Ah, ah, ah – Is there anybody home?
Who wants to have me, just to love me?
Stuck in the middle,
Stuck in the middle,
Stuck in the middle,
Stuck in the middle
