《Say Something》(用的Jasmine Thompson的女生伴奏)
摘自網絡:
"Say Something" is a song by American pop duo A Great Big World from their debut album, Is There Anybody Out There? (2013). Written by the duo members—Ian Axel and Chad King—alongside Mike Campbell, the song was originally recorded by Axel for his solo album This Is the New Year (2011). It was later released as a single by the duo on September 3, 2013, by Epic Records. Following its usage on American reality TV show So You Think You Can Dance, the track gained attention from singer Christina Aguilera, who wanted to collaborate with A Great Big World on the song. Soon afterwards, a re-recorded version of "Say Something" with Aguilera was released on November 4, 2013.
This is a very touching song that can have a lot of meanings. It goes beyond relationships and into something much deeper — the regrets, worries, and significance of separation from a loved one. (我自己特別同意這點,這首歌遠遠超越了僅僅是愛情。每個人的感受和經曆不同,和歌曲的共鳴也各有體會)
Being separated from a good friend, family member, or significant other whether it’s from death, a breakup, or a fall out is one of the most traumatizing experiences we go through in life.
This song will resonate with a lot of people for different reasons. The versatility of the meaning of this song is simply impressive although most people that hear it will reflect on their relationship with a loved one.
歌曲原唱是A Great Big World。歌曲的創作靈感源自A Great Big World成員的心碎經曆。他們表示寫這首歌對治愈自己的悲傷有幫助。
《Say Something》是美國組合A Great Big World(精彩大世界)和美國女歌手克裏斯蒂娜·阿奎萊拉共同演唱的歌曲,由伊恩·阿克塞爾、查德·瓦卡裏諾和麥克·坎貝爾譜寫,丹·羅默製作,收錄在A Great Big World第一張錄音室專輯《Is There Anybody Out There?》中,於2013年9月3日由史詩唱片發行。
2013年9月,《舞林爭霸》第十季的女冠軍艾米·亞基瑪伴隨原版《Say Something》在節目中跳了一支舞蹈,從而吸引到克裏斯蒂娜。於是A Great Big World邀請了克裏斯蒂娜加入到了該首歌曲的錄製。克裏斯蒂娜用了大概兩個小時來完成了歌曲的錄製。
該首歌在澳大利亞、比利時、加拿大等國家的音樂排行榜登上了榜首,在美國公告牌百強單曲榜最高到達了第四名。2015年2月8日,該首歌獲得第57屆格萊美獎“最佳流行組合/合作表演”獎項。2015年12月11日,該首歌以在美國本土超過五百萬的銷量被美國唱片工業協會認證為“五倍白金唱片”。
英文歌詞:(中文歌詞翻譯有不同的版本,我覺得還是留給自己感受最好)
Say Something
Anywhere, I would've followed you
It was over my head
I know nothing at all
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye
Ooh, ooh say something, I'm giving up on you
