其實整張 Parklife 都很英國
但是 "This is a Low" 這首歌提到好多英國海域和境內的地名
感覺很像是飄搖在海外,聽著航海廣播,懷想家鄉景況的美麗哀愁
不曉得為什麼
我很喜歡副歌的 "stay solo" 聽起來也像 "stay so low"...
This Is A Low 這是個低潮
And into the sea goes pretty England and me
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the Dogger Bank
Up the Thames to find the taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and fall asleep
(And the radio says)
美麗的英格蘭島和我一起,航向海裡
繞經比斯開灣,準備回程喝杯茶
在多格淺灘船隻阻塞
泰晤士河上,瞥見計程車招呼站
跟著浪潮繼續航行,漸漸有了睡意
(聽到廣播這麼說…)
This is a low
But it won't hurt you
When you are alone it will be there with you
Finding ways to stay solo
這是個低潮
但它不會傷害你
當你獨自一人,它會和你一起
找到方式,繼續這個獨行的姿態
On the Tyne, Forth and Cromarty
There's a low in the high forties
And Saturdays locked away on the pier
Not fast enough dear
On the Malin head, Blackpool looks blue and red
And the Queen, she's gone round the bend (註)
Jumped off Land's End
就在泰恩河、福士河和克羅默蒂灣沿線
北緯四十度有個低潮
星期六被綁在碼頭的船隻
親愛的,再怎樣也駛不快
從馬林角望去,黑池看起來五光十色
想像我們的女皇,已經瘋癲發狂
從英格蘭島的末端,跳了下去
---------------------------------------------------------------------
(註) go around the bend 發狂,發瘋
