You and I - by Ingrid Michaelson

最近很喜歡一首歌,就是 Ingrid Michaelson 專輯 Be OK 裡的的 You And I。歌曲的旋律很輕快,仔細一聽歌詞,發覺歌詞也很有意思。雖然是寫愛情比麵包重要的情歌,聽完後也不僅莞爾一笑,其實大概是想表達只要兩個人可以同心,人生就可以很快樂了。這首歌值得一再的回味。
看了一下網頁,最近又出了新專輯 Everybody ,這隻 Never 的 MV 似乎拍的不錯。
Ingrid Michaelson 的外型並非漂亮型的,常常帶著大眼鏡,不過她的歌真的很好聽,聽著聽著,心中就會有一股幸福的感覺。網路上還找到她和 Jason Mraz 的合唱版本,兩個音樂才子合作,激起更多聽眾的迴響。





don't you worry, there my honey
we might not have any money
but we've got our love to pay the bills
親愛的,你可別擔心
我們雖然沒錢
但我們的愛可以支撐我們過活

maybe I think you're cute and funny,
maybe I wanna do what bunnies do with you,
if you know what I mean
大概是我認為你可愛又風趣
或許是因為我想跟你做兔子常做的事
你應該知道我的意思

Oh, let's get rich and buy our parents homes in the South of France
let's get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
and teach them how to dance
let's get rich and build our house on a mountain
making everybody look like ants
from way up there, you and I, you and I, you and I,
讓我們賺一大把錢,在法國南部買棟房子給爸媽
讓我們賺一大把錢,買好毛衣給大家
然後教大家跳舞
讓我們賺一大把錢,在山上築起我們的窩
這樣所有人都像螞蟻那樣小
在山上的小窩裡,只有你和我一起生活

well you might be a bit confused
and you might be a little bit bruised
but baby how we spoon like no one else
so I will help you read those books
if you will soothe my worried looks
and we will put the lonesome on the shelf
你可能會疑惑
你也可能會受傷淤青
可是,寶貝,我們是天造地設的一對
我會幫你念那些書
你則可以安撫我心中的擔憂
我們就可把孤獨束之高閣

oh let’s get rich and buy our parents homes in the South of France
let's get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
and teach them how to dance
let's get rich and build our house on a mountain
making everybody look like ants
from way up there you and I, you and I, you and I
讓我們賺一大把錢,在法國南部買棟房子給爸媽
讓我們賺一大把錢,買好毛衣給大家
然後教大家跳舞
讓我們賺一大把錢,在山上築起我們的窩
這樣所有人都像螞蟻那樣小
在山上的小窩裡,只有你和我一起生活

oh, let’s get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France
let's get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
and teach them how to dance
let's get rich and build our house on a mountain
making everybody look like ants
from way up there you and I, you and I, you and I
讓我們賺一大把錢,在法國南部買棟房子給爸媽
讓我們賺一大把錢,買好毛衣給大家
然後教大家跳舞
讓我們賺一大把錢,在山上築起我們的窩
這樣所有人都像螞蟻那樣小
在山上的小窩裡,只有你和我一起生活
