THE MAN

LoL我已经是十几年的老霉粉了。小时候只喜欢她充满少女情怀的清纯感,事实上在1989出村之后就没有太关注taytay了,也许是她变得太popular了,但更多是因为自己在音乐方面变得重口味了。直到她30岁的某年某日,看了她的纪录片,听到她的一首单曲THE MAN…和这个superstar在某些层面产生了奇异的共鸣。里面很多渣男的描述似乎是以小李子为原型,与现实中我们遇到的普通人没有任何关系,但反映出来的sexist double-standard是每天都能遇到的,很多人习以为常甚至以为它们不存在。女生也一样,一样很渣,自私冷酷,坏透了一点都不可爱(可我常常喜欢影视里的女反派哈哈哈)。她们也一样充满勇气和奇思妙想,顽强地野蛮生长,成为别人口中的那个人。 奈何浏览一眼音乐软件的歌词,翻译不仅某些地方没有get到原词的意思,还失去了写作者特有的情态和韵味。也许是汉语言和英文的差异,那层意境的墙壁似乎很难推到。在单曲循环了很多遍以后,我忍不住为这首歌做一个笨拙的翻译实验,献给30岁的大美女taytay,献给可爱的青春,同时献给在gender identity中苦恼过的女孩们。 I would be complex, I would be cool他们会说我漫不经心,让人捉摸不透。They’d say I played the field before I found someone to commit to他们会说我处处生情,浪子风流。And that would be okay但如果是我的话,For me to do他们都能接受。Every conquest I had made would make me more of a boss to you我的每次征服,都让光辉形象在他们心中停留。I’d be a fearless leader我是无畏的领袖,I’d be an alpha type无人能敌的优秀。When everyone believesContinue reading “THE MAN”

I can’t remember what is exactly in my mind when I jogged along the sea,Continue reading “2019-2020, where all my dreams and sorrows cross”
