       作曲:琼尼·米歇尔

       作词:琼尼·米歇尔

       演唱:琼尼·米歇尔

       一句话简介:我们在不同的阶段审视人生,都会有不一样的答案。

       推荐理由:这首歌用类比的方式从“云”到“爱情”到“生活”,层层推进,这些复杂的情感体验,融合在歌里。每个人为了理解世界,都会建立一个属于自己的思维地图,地图上标记着我们对事物的认知以及因果关联:什么是生活、什么是苦难、什么是爱情等等。而成长,便是将地图不断打乱重拼,删除拓展的过程。但从打碎到重拼之间,总有一段“看山不是山,看水不是水”的灰色地区:过去的理论已不再适用,新的系统又还未建立,想破脑袋却还是似懂非懂,《Both Sides Now》唱的便是这份迷惘。

      知识拓展:琼尼·米歇尔被公认为是历史上最伟大的女性创作歌手之一,成名于上世纪60年代,创作的音乐富有深刻且自省精神,涵盖关于政治、环保、女权等多元社会话题,深深地影响了如麦当娜、艾尔顿·约翰等时代巨星。《Both Sides Now》以爵士为主基调,50年来,这首歌被无数民谣歌手翻唱,据统计被翻唱过的次数高达1298次,也是美国流行乐史上被翻唱最多的民谣歌曲之一。

      下面就来欣赏一下这首音乐的歌词:

Rows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere, i've looked at cloud that way.

But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone.

So many things i would have done but clouds got in my way.

I've looked at clouds from both sides now,

From up and down, and still somehow

It's cloud illusions i recall.

I really don't know clouds at all.

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way you feel

As every fairy tale comes real; i've looked at love that way.

But now it's just another show. you leave 'em laughing when you go

And if you care, don't let them know, don't give yourself away.

I've looked at love from both sides now,

From give and take, and still somehow

It's love's illusions i recall.

I really don't know love at all.

Tears and fears and feeling proud to say "i love you" right out loud,

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, i've looked at life that way.

But now old friends are acting strange, they shake their heads, they say I've changed.

Something's lost but something's gained in living every day.

I've looked at life from both sides now,

From win and lose, and still somehow

It's life's illusions i recall.

I really don't know life at all.
