還記得那部《How The Grinch Stole Christmas》—《聖誕怪傑》嗎?在聖誕老人的故鄉北極圈,聖誕怪傑和他的狗狗Max相依為命。當聖誕來臨,大家興高采烈準備迎接新年到來的時候,他卻感到寂寞孤苦,於是心生一機,惡作劇般地到處把人們的聖誕禮物全部偷走。怪傑以為偷去所有的禮物,就能破壞聖誕那種喜氣洋洋的氣氛,但後來發現即使沒有禮物,人們歡樂的歌聲仍然到處飄揚__聖誕節沒有因為缺少禮物&聖誕樹而停止,於是他終於明白: 快樂並不是建築在物質上......
電影的主題歌就是《Where Are You Christmas》。 特別的是這首歌好像是唯一一首由花蝴蝶參與創作但不是她本人演唱的, 代替她的是那位漂亮的鄉村歌手Faith Hill, 雖然Hill的演繹已經相當吸引人的耳朵, 但隱隱約約還是很期待花蝴蝶那驚人肺活量的歌聲,是否會更震撼呢?
歌詞:
Why can't I find you
Why have you gone away
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me
Why can't I hear music play
Where Are You Christmas
My world is changing
I'm rearranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too
Where are you Christmas
Do you remember
The one you used to know
I'm not the same one
See what the time's done
Is that why you have let me go
Christmas is here
Everywhere, oh
Christmas is here
If you care, oh
If there is love in your heart and your mind
You will feel like Christmas all the time
I feel you Christmas
I know I've found you
You never fade away
The joy of Christmas
Stays here inside us
Fills each and every heart with love
Fill your heart with love
第一次聽到這首歌, 說不清是為劇中人物的遭遇,還是歌曲本身,竟然有種隱隱的傷感:聖誕似乎離的越來越遠了, 漸漸失去了感覺。 從什麽時候開始,對它的新奇&期待變成了一聲: 聖誕過後就可以回家了!
家, 永遠的期待;那盞桔紅色的燈永遠刻在了心裏。
Merry Cihrstmas & Happy New Year
