1.Hallelujah。
在youtube上,任何一首稍有名气的歌都能找到无数的翻唱版本,就Hallelujah而言,如果从悦耳的角度来讲,好像谁都比Cohen大叔的嗓子动听-。- 大叔的嗓子声音过于低沉,不过诗意十足。以前我最喜欢的cover是来自Kathryn Williams的,好像是某民谣音乐节的live版,收录在relation中。后来听到Jeff Buckley,才知道什么叫销魂。当然,其实两个都很销魂,但是Buckley长得又很销魂(前提条件是大叔的词曲作的销魂),死得又很销魂,足以让天地动容了。
i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you don’t really care for music, do you
well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah
hallelujah…
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
hallelujah…
baby i’ve been here before
i’ve seen this room and i’ve walked this floor
i used to live alone before i knew you
i’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
hallelujah…
well there was a time when you let me know
what’s really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when i moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah
well, maybe there’s a god above
but all i’ve ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
it’s not a cry that you hear at night
it’s not somebody who’s seen the light
it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
