啊很好。由于我长期的懒癌,我今天不会写太多。就是整合一下她在reputation巡演里的一些语段。

话不多说,开始。

 

 

1、《Delicate》前的一段唠嗑

delicate是rep中一首比较特别的歌。rep一共打了4支单曲,这是最后一支。与其他三首打单曲《咪咪兔》《鱼贝贝》《end game》那种强节奏感不同,delicate是一首抒情歌。"this ain't for the best, my reputation's never been worse. so you must like me for me."其实整首歌主要讲的就是她和姐夫之间,由于她的处境,她为这段感情担心,认为这很脆弱。我最喜欢的一句是“Long night with your hands up in my hair,Echoes of your footsteps on the stairs”感觉超有意境的。

delicate被霉粉们称为“脆脆”“脆皇”。一是与歌名“delicate”->“脆弱”有关,还有就是delicate的优秀成绩。delicate在b榜上峰值不高,但是磨榜30余周,此后霉霉再也没有(到现在为止)足以比肩这一成绩的歌曲(这与她打单方式有关)。而且,脆皇在打单以后,电台成绩很好,可谓是一手撑起了rep后期的电台缘,rep的商业后劲很大程度上也受了脆脆的影响。

我的磕唠完了,接下来放她唠的磕。

 

 

Are we having fun yet?

(screaming)

Oh, good.

You know, you may notice this... Not sure if you picked up on it yet.

I'm pretty sure you have, though.

Have you notice that you have a light-up bracelet on your wrist?

There they are. So pretty.

Um, but that's not the only thing about them.

The reason why I wanted to have these on the tour, is because this is actually my very first all stadium tour,

which has been so, so much fun because of you.

 

大家玩得开心么?(尖叫)

哦,很好。就是说,你们可能已经发现了……你们不一定都发现了。

但是我很确定你们都能发现。

你们有没有注意到你们手腕上的那些荧光手环?

就是它们。真美。

呃,这不是它们的唯一用途。我想要自己的巡演途中有它们,是因为这事实上是我第一次全部在体育场里举办的巡演。

因为你们,这次巡演非常有趣。

 

So, one thing I do know about stadiums is that they are just massive spaces to play,

and so I wanted to make sure that no matter what, 

I could see every single one of you in these stadiums.

So if you're on the top...top deck, last row and you think I can't see you,

that would be incorrect.

所以说,我觉得在体育场里办演唱会的一大特点,就是体育场有很大的空间供我们表演,

而且我想让你们知道,无论如何,我可以看见每一个观众。

所以即使你坐在最后一排,如果你觉得我看不到你,那你就错了。

 

(真糊)

I can see absolutely every person in this stadium.

And I can see you dancing, I can see you throwing your hands in the air.

And on top of that, I can hear... I can hear the-

It seems like every single person in this crowd has memorized every single word to the songs,

and is not just singing them, but like screaming them.

我可以看到这个体育场里的每一个人,

我可以看到你们自由地舞动,可以看到你们把手臂伸到空中。

不仅如此,我可以听见...我可以听见——

看起来你们每一个人都记住了歌曲里的每一个单词,

而且不仅仅把它们唱出来,还把它们大声喊出来。

 

If I had to take a guess, and say the one thing that probably everybody in this stadium has in common,

I think I would say that one thing would be, that we all like the feeling of finding something real.

Like... you know, finding real friendship or finding real love, or someone who really gets you, or someone who's really honest to you.

I think that's what we are all looking for in life,

如果让我做一个猜测,猜测这个场馆里的所有人都可能拥有的共同点,

我想我会说,我们都热爱找到真实的东西的感受。

就比如,找到真正的挚友,找到真爱,或者找到真正理解你的人,找到真正对你真诚的人。

我觉得这是我们每个人都追求的东西。

 

 

and I think the things that can scare us most in life are the things that we think will threaten the prospect of us finding something real.

For example, having a bad reputation, in our minds,

could get in the way of you finding real friendship, real love, real acceptance, people you really fit in with.

Because you think to yourself, "what if they've heard something about me that isn't true?

What if they've got these preconceived notions about me that they heard from gossip?

And then they never even wanna meet me, and then we'll never know what could've happened."

而且我觉得我们在人生中,最害怕的事情,就是那些会阻止我们去寻求“真”的东西。

比如说,拥有一个不好的名誉,对我们来说,会使得我们难以找到真正的友谊,真爱,真正的接纳,真正和你志同道合的人。

因为你会想:“如果他们听到哪些关于我的谣言怎么办?

万一他们听到那些闲言碎语,会对我有先入为主的偏见怎么办?

这样以后他们甚至都不愿意见到我,这会导致我们永远不知道,如果这样的闲话从未存在,我们本应拥有的关系。

 

And I think that's why some of us- meaning most, if not all of us-are sort of afraid of having a bad reputation.

Because we are so scared of something fake, like gossip or a rumor about you, or a name you got called,

getting in the way of you finding something real.

And so, when it comes down to that fear and that anxiety, it's just all really delicate, don't you think, Dallas?

所以,我认为这就是为什么我们中的一些人(我指的是大部分,如果有反例的话),在某种程度上如此惧怕一个坏名声。

因为我们都害怕虚假的东西,比如说针对你的闲话、谣言,或者别人给你的外号,拦住了你追寻真实的路。

所以说,如果我们感受到那种恐惧和焦虑,这确实是一种脆弱、微妙的情形,你们觉得呢,达拉斯?

 

 

救命,我更不动了。其实这一篇从昨天就开始写了,一直写到今天才写到这里。我本来准备搬运更多(搬运,就是我从演唱会视频中自己把她的英文唠嗑敲到这里,然后自己翻译),但是这一篇已经很长了。所以有缘以后还会继续。

我霉其实说的这一段话完全是在映射自己的经历。她在rep之前因谣言和虚假受到重创,人们都用“蛇🐍”来讽刺她,这就使得很多人没法看到真正的她,使原先站在她一边的人离开了她,使得她怀疑自己是否能找到真正懂自己的人(其实是有的,她的父母,她自高中起的闺蜜Abigail,她圈内的好友Selena,她的男人Joe……)。这样的境遇使她的内心更加敏感脆弱。这也就是delicate的创作背景。她和Joe相爱了,但有很强的不安全感,担心他离开,担心他被流言中伤……甚至尝试把他气走。(蠢死了,不过这是后话)但是她最终还是找到了“real”,真正的朋友、真正的爱人、真正的理解她支持她的人。但在这寻找“real”的途中,她的内心一定是“delicate”的。

诶嘿诶嘿,就到这里吧。delicate其实与rep里其他的主打单曲相比,我get到的比较晚,但是却是最能引起我共鸣的主打单。mv当中也是,当她能够隐身,她忘我地跳舞,终于能够逃离那些闪光灯和风凉话。那可能在外表上不是最完美的她,但却是最自然、最真实、最快乐的自己。在mv的最后,她从雨中走进一个酒吧,浑身颤抖,这时她不再隐身,酒吧里的人都显露了真诚的关心,她也终于发自内心地微笑。

最后一句:为爱发电,不爱看滚
