“Best Shot” (with Jaymes Young)
When you’re on your own and you feel lost
若你孤单一人 迷失徬徨
When your heart’s a mess though you’ve given your best.
若你付出全力 却一团糟
I’ll be here giving it my best shot, baby, your love’s got more than I need.
我会在你身边 竭尽所能地帮你
Here crying from the rooftops.
即使痛哭流涕
Nothing can stop us if we believe.
也没人能阻止我们相信
Here giving it my best shot, baby, I find that we can be free.
我会伴你度过难关 重获自由
When you’re here, here with me.
只要你我一起
When your sky is dark and the earth is shaking your bed.
若你的天空乌云密布 地震得你辗转难眠
Your hope is at its end, you just need one friend.
若你失去希望 你需要我立刻出现
I’ll be here giving it my best shot, baby, your love’s got more than I need.
我会在你身边 竭尽所能地帮你
Here crying from the rooftops.
即使痛哭流涕
Nothing can stop us if we believe.
也没人能阻止我们相信
Here giving it my best shot, baby, I find that we can be free.
我会伴你度过难关 重获自由
When you’re here, here with me.
只要你我一起
When you can’t find your way and all around you walks as deep and grey.
若你迷失徬徨 黑暗笼罩 毫无希望
The stars fall from above and you’re barely holding on my love.
乌云间星光闪烁 你是否会看见我
I’ll be here giving it my best shot, baby, your love’s got more than I need.
我会在你身边 竭尽所能地帮你
Here crying from the rooftops.
即使痛哭流涕
Nothing can stop us if we believe.
也没人能阻止我们相信
Here giving it my best shot, baby, I find that we can be free.
我会伴你度过难关 重获自由
When you’re here with me.
只要你我一起
虽然已经是两年前的电影了,不过还是想把 Birdy 的这首 Best Shot 介绍给大家。这首歌虽然收录在《生命中的美好缺憾》原声带中,不过在电影中却没有出现,我觉得满可惜的,毕竟整张专辑有满多不错的音乐,就少了这么一首没出现。先前介绍过 Birdy 在这部电影中的另一首 Not About Angels 也是很美的歌曲。
《生命中的美好缺憾》叙述两位正值青春但身体个有缺陷的少男和少女,他们无法像正常人一样生活,生命也即将走到尽头,他们在这个时候遇见彼此,人生似乎变得美好,却也令他们更加害怕失去对方。
撇开电影, Best Shot 的 MV 本身也是一个很温馨的小故事,其实我一开始是先被 MV 吸引才喜欢上这首歌的,有种迪士尼动画的味道。
