小女人情懷
關(guān)于“鄉(xiāng)村搖滾”: 曾有朋友戲謔說,“What if she's an angel”是“坐著”的彈唱,“Any man of
mine”則只能“站著”,并以一種頗富感染力的舞臺表演引起觀眾的共鳴。雖然這種說法欠考究,但細(xì)細(xì)想來不無道理——否則,超級女生張靚穎怎會對這只曲子偏愛有加?也正是由于她最為出色最為成功的翻唱,“Any
man of mine”才得以紅遍大江南北。
Lyrics
Any man of mine
by Shania Twain
This is what a woman wants...
Any man of mine better be proud of me
Even when I'm ugly he
still better love me
And I can be late for a date that's fine
But he
better be on time
Any man of mine'll say it fits just right
When last
year's dress is just a little too tight
And anything I do or say better be
okay
When I have a bad hair day
And if I change my mind
A million times
I
wanna hear him say
Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that
way
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a
teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda
time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a
heartbeatin' fine treatin' Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine
Well any man of mine better disagree
When I say another
woman's lookin' better than me
And when I cook him dinner and I burn it black
He better say, mmmm, I like it
like that yeah
And if I changed my mind
A million times
I wanna hear
him say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that way
Any man of mine better better walk the line
Better show
me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the
story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'Breathtakin'
earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it
that way
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a
teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story
goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'Breathtakin' earthquakin'
kind
Any man of mine
You gotta shimmy
shake
Make the earth quake
Kick, turn, stomp, stomp, then you jump
Heel
to toe, Do Si Do
'Til your boots wanna break
"Til your feet and your back
ache
Keep it movin' 'til you just can't take anymore
Come on everybody on
the floor
A-one two, a-three four
Hup two, hum
This is what a woman
wants...
Words and phrases
1. better:歌中的better相當(dāng)于had
better(應(yīng)該,還是…好)。與had better相比,better更口語化,如:You better come
back.(你最好還是回來。)
2. I have a bad hair
day: 這是一句俚語,不過千萬別誤以為是“發(fā)型很糟糕”。I have a bad hair
day指的是“心情很糟糕,壞心情”。
3. wanna = want to, want a, do you
want to
這是美語縮讀之一,美國人在日常生活中高頻率使用縮讀,比如“邀請您跳支舞可以嗎?”,就可以說:Wanna
dance?
4. I like it that
way: 那樣很好(這句在日常生活中經(jīng)常使用,表示同意某種“方式,風(fēng)格或做法”)
注意一下 one's way,this way,that way的用法,如:
Have it
your own way. 照你的風(fēng)格去做吧。
5. teasin'
squeezin' pleasin' = teasing squeezing pleasing(動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞形式)
