  解釋?zhuān)?br>  1、 THE EVERLY BROTHERS:The Everly Brothers were not only among the most important and best early rock & roll stars, but also among the most influential rockers of any era. They set unmatched standards for close, two-part harmonies and infused early rock & roll with some of the best elements of country and pop music. Their legacy was and is felt enormously in all rock acts that employ harmonies as prime features, from the Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, and legions of country-rockers to modern-day roots rockers like Dave Edmunds and Nick Lowe (who once recorded an EP of Everlys songs together).
  2、 ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DREAM:在本句型中凡以ALL ONE HAS TO DO,ALL ONE DOES,WHAT ONE HAS TO DO ,WHAT ONE DOES 等做主語(yǔ),其后接BE動(dòng)詞,再接不定式短語(yǔ)做補(bǔ)語(yǔ)時(shí),TO 通常被省略。
  3、 CHARM (n)魅力;(vt)吸引,使陶醉
  EX:TO BE A MOVIE STAR,ONE MUST HAVE CHARM。
  要想成為電影明星,必須要有魅力。
  HE WAS CHARMED BY HER BEAUTY。
  他迷戀于她的美麗。
  4、 WHEN I FEEL BLUE IN THE NIGHT,AND I NEED YOU TO HOLD ME
  (a) (b)
  TIGHT,WHENEVER I WANT YOU,ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DREAM,
  (c) (d)
  a,b,c為WHEN和WHENEVER 引導(dǎo)的狀語(yǔ)從句,d為主語(yǔ),被a,b,c狀語(yǔ)從句修飾。
  5、 BLUE(a)憂(yōu)郁的
  EX: THAT OLD HOUSE MAKES ME FEEL BLUE。
  IN THE NIGHT=AT NIGHT
  用介詞IN時(shí),一定要加定冠詞THE ,而用AT時(shí)則不必。但I(xiàn)N THE EVENING(傍晚),卻只有此用法,不能用AT EVENING。

  2、 ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT by Elvis Presley
  Are you lonesome tonight?Do you miss me tonight?Are you sorry we drift apart?Does your memory stray to a bright summer day when I kiss you and called you sweetheart?Do the chairs in you parlor seem empty and bare?Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?Is your heart feel was pained? Shall I come back again?Tell me,dear,are you lonesome tonight?
  I wonder if you’re lonesome tonight.You know someone said that the world’s a stage and we each must play a part.Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart.ActOne was when we met.I loved you at first glance.And you read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue.Then came Act Tow.You seemed to change, you acted strange,and why I’ve never known.Honey,you lied when you said you loved me ,and I had no cause to doubt you .But I’d rather go on hearing your lies than go on living without you .Now the stage is bare and I’m standing there with emptiness all around.And if you won’t come back to me ,then they can bring the curtain down.
  解釋?zhuān)?1、Elvis Presley may be the single most important figure in American 20th century popular music. Not necessarily the best, and certainly not the most consistent. But no one could argue with the fact that he was the musician most responsible for popularizing rock & roll on an international level. Viewed in cold sales figures, his impact was phenomenal. Dozens upon dozens of international smashes from the mid-’50s to the mid-’70s, as well as the steady sales of his catalog and reissues since his death in 1977, may make him the single highest-selling performer in history.
  2、Are you sorry we drift apart?=Are you sorry that we have broken up?
  Drift apart 流開(kāi),疏遠(yuǎn)
  3、G.I.BLUES Elvis Presley 主演的一部電影G.I. =GOVERNMENT ISSUE常用來(lái)表示美國(guó)大兵

  Stray(vi)脫離正軌,走入歧途。
  EX:Our dog has strayed off somewhere.(我們的狗不知道走失到什么地方去了)
  5、Do the chairs in you parlor seem empty and bare?=Do the chairs in your livingroom seem empty and bare just because I’m not there?
  Partor(n)起居室,客廳 bare (a)空的,僅僅的(=merely)
  EX: The bare sight of him thrilled me .(僅僅見(jiàn)到他就令我激動(dòng))
  6、You know someone said that the world’s a stage and we each must play a part.
  SOMEONE 指莎士比亞,“The world’s a stage and we each must play a part.”是莎士比亞說(shuō)的。
  7、Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart.
  =Fate decreed that our love would not be eternal.
  命中注定我們的愛(ài)無(wú)法持久。
  Decree(vt) 命運(yùn)注定
  8、at first glance乍看之下,一看就…
  9、And you read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue。

  3. blowing in the wind by the brother four
  How many roads must a man wolk down before they call him a man?how may seas must a white dove sail before she sleepinp in the sand?How many times must the cannonballs fly before they’re forever banned?the answer,myfriend,is blowing in the wind.The answer is blowing in the wind.
  How many years can a mountain exist before it is washed to the sea?How many years can some people exist before they’re allowed to be free?How many times can a man turn his head ,pretending he just doesn’t see?the answer,myfriend,is blowing in the wind.The answer is blowing in the wind.
  How many times must a man look up before he can see the sky?How many ears must one man have before he can hear people cry?How many deaths will it tak till he knows that too many people have died?the answer,myfriend,is blowing in the wind.The answer is blowing in the wind.1、The Brothers Four: bear a distinction as one of the longest surviving groups of the late-’50s/early-’60s folk revival and perhaps the longest running "accidental" music act in history — 43 years and counting as of 2001, without any break and with two original members still in the fold. If few recognize that distinction, then it’s because the Brothers Four were also part of a largely forgotten chapter in the history of folk music in America.

  6、If Neil Sedaka had been born a bit earlier, he probably would have felt quite at home as a straight Tin Pan Alley tunesmith. Rock and roll had taken over by 1960, though, so he made a niche for himself as one of the Brill Building’s most pop-oriented writers. Unlike most of the Brill Building heavyweights, he sang most of his hit records (which were composed in association with Howard Greenfield). And he had a lot of them in the late ’50s and early ’60s: "Oh Carol," "The Diary," "Stairway to Heaven," "Calendar Girl," "Next Door to an Angel," and "Happy Birthday, Sweet Sixteen." "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do," a number one hit in 1962, was probably his best-known tune.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  5.California Dreamin’ by The Mamas & The Papas
  
  
  All the leaves are brown
  And the sky is grey
  I’ve been for a walk
  On a winter’s day
  I’d be safe and warm
  If I was in L.A.
  
  California dreaming
  On such a winter’s day
  
  Stopped into a church
  I passed along the way
  Well, I got down on my knees
  And I pretend to pray
  You know the preacher likes the cold
  He knows I’m gonna stay
  
  All the leaves are brown
  And the sky is grey
  I’ve been for a walk
  On a winter’s day
  If I didn’t tell her
  I could leave today

  The leading California-based vocal group of the ’60s, the Mamas & the Papas epitomized the ethos of mid- to late-’60s pop culture: live free, play free, and love free. Their music, built around radiant harmonies and a solid electric-folk foundation, was gorgeous on its own terms, but a major part of its appeal lay in the easygoing Southern California lifestyle it endorsed.
  2、All the leaves are brown,And the sky is grey
  =It’s lates autumn,and all the leaves are turning brown,and the sky is gray;winter is around the corner.
  around the corner:在附近,正在迫近中(=be near at hand,be fast approaching)
  3、I’d be safe and warm,If I was in L.A.

  And I thank God I’m alive.
  You’re just too good to be true.
  Can’t take my eyes off you.

  You’re just too good to be true.
  Can’t take my eyes off you.
  
  I love you baby, and if it’s quite all right,
  I need you baby to warm the lonely night.

  Oh pretty baby, don’t bring me down, I pray.
  Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.
  
  And let me love you, baby. Let me love you ...
  
  I love you baby, and if it’s quite allright,
  I need you baby to warm the lonely night.

  Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.
  
  Oh pretty baby. Trust in me when I say: Oh pretty baby ...

  Frankie Valli, the lead singer of the Four Seasons, launched a solo career in 1965 after several years of chart-topping success, while still continuing with the group which was re-billed as "Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons." He had actually begun as a solo, releasing the 1953 single "My Mother’s Eyes" under the name Frankie Valley. His debut solo single was "(You’re Gonna) Hurt Yourself" at the end of 1965, but his first solo success came with the gold-selling "Can’t Take My Eyes Off You" (June 1967), which appeared on his first solo album, Frankie Valli—Solo (July 1967). This was followed by Timeless (1968). Valli discontinued solo work for half a dozen years, concentrating on the group. But he returned to solo recordings in the mid-’70s. His subsequent solo hits included the number one "My Eyes Adored You" (November 1974), "Swearin’ to God" (May 1975), "Our Day Will Come" (October 1975), and the number one "Grease" (May 1978).

  8.Dear Heart
  
  
  Artist: Andy Williams (peak Billboard position # 24 in 1964)
  Music by Henry Mancini and Words by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans
  titles song from the movie starring Glenn Ford and Geraldine Page
  
  
  Dear heart wish you were here to warm this night
  My dear heart, seems like a year since you’ve been out of my sight
  A single room, a table for one
  It’s a lonesome town all right
  But soon I’ll kiss you hello at our front door
  And dear heart I want you to know
  I’ll leave your arms never more
  
  (A single room, a table for one)

  Easily the most solid and long-lasting vocalist of his era, Andy Williams’ laidback delivery and expansive voice charmed audiences for decades, from his first appearance with a brother quartet into his seventh decade of performance as the head of his own dinner theater in Branson, Missouri. Born in Wall Lake, Iowa, Williams sang in his church choir and later formed a quartet with his three brothers. The group performed on radio throughout the Midwest, then moved to Los Angeles to make it in show business. The Williams Brothers Quartet appeared on Bing Crosby’s 1944 hit "Swinging on a Star," and appeared with comedienne Kay Thompson during the late ’40s.
  
  
  10.El condor pasa
  Simon & Garfunkel
  Music & Lyrics : Paul Simon - Jorge Milchberg - Daniel A. Robles
  
  
  I’d rather be a sparrow than a snail
  Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
  I’d rather be a hammer than a nail
  Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
  
  Away, I’d rather sail away
  Like a swan that’s here and gone
  A man gets tied up to the ground
  He gives the world its saddest sound
  Its saddest sound
  
  I’d rather be a forest than a street
  Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
  I’d rather feel the earth beneath my feet
  Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would

  The most successful folk-rock duo of the 1960s, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel crafted a series of memorable hit albums and singles featuring their choirboy harmonies, ringing acoustic, and electric guitars; and Simon’s acute, finely wrought songwriting. The pair always inhabited the more polished end of the folk-rock spectrum, and were sometimes criticized for a certain collegiate sterility. Many also feel that Simon, as both a singer and songwriter, didn’t truly blossom until he began his own hugely successful solo career in the 1970s. But the best of S&G’s work can stand among Simon’s best material, and the duo did progress musically over the course of their five albums, moving from basic folk-rock productions into Latin rhythms and gospel-influenced arrangements that foreshadowed Simon’s eclecticism on his solo albums.

  13.I went to your wedding
  by patti page
  I went to your wedding
  
  although I was dreading.
  
  The thought of losing you,
  
  the organ was playing,
  my poor heart kept saying,
  My dreams, my dreams are through.
  She came down the aisle, wearing a smile.
  A vision of loveliness,
  I uttered a sigh, whispered goodbye,
  goodbye to my happiness.
  Your mother was crying,
  your father was crying,
  I was crying too.
  The teardrops were falling because we were losing you.

  The best-selling female singer during the 1950s, Patti Page in many ways defined the decade of earnest, novelty-ridden adult pop with throwaway hits like "The Doggie in the Window" and "I Went to Your Wedding." By singing a wide range of popular material and her own share of novelty fluff, she proved easily susceptible to the fall of classic adult pop but remained a chart force into the mid-’60s.

  14.I’ll never fall in love again
  BY BOBBIE GENTRY
  What do you get
  When you fall in love
  A girl with a pin
  To burst your bubble
  That’s what you get
  For all your trouble
  I’ll never fall in love again
  
  
  What do you get
  When you kiss a guy
  You get enough germs
  To catch peneumonia
  After you do he’ll never phone ya
  I’ll never fall in love again
  
  Don’t tell me what it’s all about
  I’ve been there
  And I’m glad I’m out
  Out of those chains
  Those chains that bind you
  That is why I’m here
  To remind you
  
  What do you get
  When you fall in love
  You only get lies and pain and sorrow
  So far at least until tomorrow
  I’ll never fall in love again
  
  1、Bobbie Gentry remains one of the most interesting and underappreciated artists to emerge out of Nashville during the late ’60s. Best-known for her crossover smash "Ode to Billie Joe," she was one of the first female country artists to write and produce much of her own material, forging an idiosyncratic, pop-inspired sound that, in tandem with her glamorous, bombshell image, anticipated the rise of latter-day superstars like Shania Twain and Faith Hill. Of Portuguese descent, Gentry was born Roberta Streeter in Chickasaw County, MS, on July 27, 1944; her parents divorced shortly after her birth and she was raised in poverty on her grandparents’ farm. After her grandmother traded one of the family’s milk cows for a neighbor’s piano, seven-year-old Bobbie composed her first song, "My Dog Sergeant Is a Good Dog," years later self-deprecatingly reprised in her nightclub act; at 13, she moved to Arcadia, CA, to live with her mother, soon beginning her performing career in local country clubs. The 1952 film Ruby Gentry lent the singer her stage surname.

  --永遠(yuǎn)的貓王--elvis--it’s now or never
  it’s now or never,
  come hold me tight
  kiss me my darling,
  be mine tonight
  tomorrow will be too late,
  it’s now or never
  my love won’t wait.
  when i first saw you
  with your smile so tender
  my heart was captured,
  my soul surrendered
  i’d spend a lifetime
  waiting for the right time
  now that your near
  the time is here at last.
  it’s now or never,
  come hold me tight
  kiss me my darling,
  be mine tonight
  tomorrow will be too late,
  it’s now or never
  my love won’t wait.
  just like a willow,
  we would cry an ocean
  if we lost true love
  and sweet devotion
  your lips excite me,
  let your arms invite me
  for who knows when
  we’ll meet again this way
  it’s now or never,
  come hold me tight
  kiss me my darling,
  be mine tonight
  tomorrow will be too late,
  it’s now or never
  my love won’t wait.

  18、Just Walking In The Rain-jim reeves
  
  Just walking in the rain, getting soaking wet, torturing my heart by trying to forget. Just walking in the rain, so alone and blue, all because my heart still remembers you.
  People come to (their) windows. They always stare at me. (They) shake their heads in sorrow, saying, "Who can that fool be?" Just walking in the rain, thinking how we met, knowing things could change, somehow I can*t forget.
  Just walking in the rain*

  Gentleman Jim Reeves was perhaps the biggest male star to emerge from the Nashville Sound. His mellow baritone voice and muted velvet orchestration combined to create a sound that echoed around his world and has lasted to this day. Detractors will call the sound country-pop (or plain pop), but none can argue against the large audience that loves this music. Reeves was capable of singing hard country ("Mexican Joe" went to number one in 1953), but he made his greatest impact as a country-pop crooner. From 1955 through 1969, Reeves was consistently charted in the country and pop charts — an amazing fact in light of his untimely death in an airplane accident in 1964. Not only was a presence in the American charts, but he became country music’s foremost international ambassador and, if anything, he was even more popular in Europe and Britain than he was in his native America. After his death, his fanbase didn’t diminish at all, and several of his posthumous hits actually outsold his earlier singles; no less than six number one singles arrived in the three years following his burial. In fact, during the ’70s and ’80s, he continued to have hits with both unreleased material and electronic duets like "Take Me in Your Arms and Hold Me" with Deborah Allen and "Have You Ever Been Lonely?" with his smooth-singing female counterpart of the plush Nashville Sound, Patsy Cline, who also perished in an airplane crash, in 1963. But Reeves’ legacy remains with lush country-pop singles like "Four Walls" (1957) and "He’ll Have To Go" (1959), which defined both his style and an entire era of country music.

  23、Morning Has Broken 破曉 -CAT STEVENS
  
  
  Morning has broken like the first morning. Blackbird has spoken like the first bird. Praise for the singing; praise for the morning; praise for them springing fresh from the world.
  
  Sweet the rains’ new fall sunlit from heaven, like the first dewfall on the first grass. Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, sprung in completeness where His feet pass. Mine is the sunlight. Mine is the morning. Born of the one light Eden saw play. Praise with elation, praise every morning God’s re-creation of the new day.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  32.Right here waiting - Richard Marx
  
  
  Oceans apart day after day
  And I slowly go insace
  I hear your voice on the line
  But it doesn’t stop the pain
  
  If I see you next to never
  How can we say forever
  
  Wherever you go
  Whatever you do
  I will be right here waiting for you
  Whatever it takes
  Or how my heart breaks
  I will be right here waiting for you
  
  I took for granted, all the times
  That I thought would last somehow
  I hear the loughter, I taste the tears
  But I can’t get near you now
  
  Oh, can’t you see it baby
  You’ve got me going crazy
  
  Wherever you go
  Whatever you do
  I will be right here waiting for you
  Whatever it takes
  Or how my heart breaks
  I will be right here waiting for you
  
  I wonder how we can survive
  This romance
  But in the end if I’m with you
  I’ll take the chance
  Oh, can’t you see it baby
  You’ve got me going crazy
  
  Wherever you go
  Whatever you do
  I will be right here waiting for you
  Whatever it takes
  Or how my heart breaks

  35、Say You Say Me -lionel richie
  
  
  Say you, say me. Say it for always
  That’s the way it should be
  Say you, say me. Say it together, naturally
  
  I had a dream, I had an awesome dream
  People in the park, playing games in the dark
  And what they played was a masquerade
  But from behind the walls of doubt
  A voice was crying out
  
  As we go down life’s lonesome highway
  Seems the hardest thing to do
  Is to find a friend or two
  That helping hand, someone who understands
  When you feel you’ve lost your way
  You’ve got someone there to say
  So you think you know the answers
  Oh no. Well, the whole worlds got ya dancin’
  That’s right I’m telling you
  It’s time to start believin’
  Oh yes. Believe in who you are
  You are a shining star...oh
  
  Say you, say me. Say it for always
  That’s the way it should be
  Say you, say me. Say it together, naturally
  Say it together, naturally

  After leaving the Commodores, Lionel Richie became one of the most successful male solo artists of the ’80s, arguably eclipsed during his 1981-1987 heyday only by Michael Jackson and Prince. Richie dominated the pop charts during that period with an incredible run of 13 consecutive Top Ten hits, five of them number ones. As his popularity skyrocketed, Richie moved farther away from his R&B origins and concentrated more on adult contemporary balladry, which had been one of his strengths even as part of the Commodores. After 1987, Richie fell silent, taking an extended break from recording and touring before beginning a comeback toward the tail end of the ’90s.
  LIONEL RICHIE是我很喜歡的一位音樂(lè)人,象他的《四海一家(WE ARE THE WORLD)》早就為人熟悉,他的歌曲對(duì)情感的表達(dá)與眾不同,反正是總能讓我感動(dòng),下面再推薦一首《HELLO》給大家欣賞:
  Hello - Lionel Richie
  
  i’ve been alone with you inside my mind
  and in my dreams i’ve kissed your lips a thousand times
  i sometimes see you pass outside my door
  hello, is it me you’re looking for?
  i can see it in your eyes
  i can see it in your smile
  you’re all i’ve ever wanted,(and) my arms are open wide
  ’cause you know just what to say
  and you know just what to do
  and i want to tell you so much, i love you ...
  i long to see the sunlight in your hair
  and tell you time and time again how much i care
  sometimes i feel my heart will overflow
  hello, i’ve just got to let you know
  ’cause i wonder where you are
  and i wonder what you do
  are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
  tell me how to win your heart
  for i haven’t got a clue
  but let me start by saying, i love you ...
  hello, is it me you’re looking for?
  ’cause i wonder where you are
  and i wonder what you do
  are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
  tell me how to win your heart
  for i haven’t got a clue
  but let me start by saying ... i love you

  seven lonely days make one lonely week
  seven lonely nights make one lonely me
  ever since the time you told me we were thru
  seven lonely days i cried and i cried for you
  oh, my darlin’ i’m cryin’, boo-hoo-hoo-hoo

  oh, my darlin i’m cryin’, boo-hoo-hoo-hoo
  now, there’s no use in denyin’ i cried for you
  it’s your favorite pastime, makin’ me blue

  1、對(duì)于這首歌,大家可能更熟悉的是鄉(xiāng)村巨星PATSY CLINE 的版本
  PATSY CLINE:
  
  
  
  One of the greatest singers in the history of country music, Patsy Cline also helped blaze a trail for female singers to assert themselves as an integral part of the Nashville-dominated country music industry. She was not alone in this regard; Kitty Wells had become a star several years before Cline’s big hits in the early ’60s. Brenda Lee, who shared Cline’s producer, did just as much to create a country-pop crossover during the same era; Skeeter Davis briefly enjoyed similar success. Cline has the most legendary aura of any female country singer, however, perhaps due to an early death that cut her off just after she had entered her prime.

  Song sunG blue.Everybody knows one. Song sung blue. Every garden grows one. Me and you are subject to the blues now and then. And when you take the blues and make a song, you sing them out again, sing them out again.
  
  Song sung blue. Weeping like a willow. Song sung blue. Sleeping on my pillow. Funny thing but you can sing it with a cry in your voice. And before you know it, get to feeling good. You simply got no choice.

  Neil Diamond built a career, first as a pop songwriter, and then as a pop singer, that has withstood the changing fashions of music, especially rock, over more than 25 years. Born in Brooklyn, Diamond was writing and recording in New York in his teens, though he graduated from Brooklyn’s Abraham Lincoln High School and attended New York University for a time. In 1965, he signed to Bang Records as an artist while also working as a songwriter. In 1966, he reached the Top Ten with his "Cherry, Cherry," while the Monkees took his "I’m a Believer" to #1. "Cherry, Cherry" was the first of five straight Top 20 hits, among them "Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon."

  One of the most popular recording artists of the 1970s, country-folk singer/songwriter John Denver’s gentle, environmentally conscious music established him among the most beloved entertainers of his era; wholesome and clean-cut, his appeal extended to fans of all ages and backgrounds, and led to parallel careers as both an actor and a humanitarian. Born John Henry Deutschendorf in Roswell, New Mexico on December 31, 1943, he was raised in an Air Force family, and grew up in various regions of the southwestern U.S. As a teen, his grandmother presented him with a 1910 Gibson acoustic guitar, and while attending Texas Tech University he began performing local clubs. Adopting the stage surname "Denver" in tribute to the Rocky Mountain area he so cherished, he dropped out of college in 1964 to relocate to Los Angeles; there he joined the Chad Mitchell Trio, a major draw on the hootenanny circuit of the early ’60s but in the twilight of their career at the time of Denver’s arrival. Over time, however, Denver helped resuscitate the group on the strength of his songwriting skills; signed to Mercury, the Trio recorded a number of tracks, which the label repackaged in 1974 as Beginnings with the Chad Mitchell Trio.

  i can’t understand
  no, i can’t understand

  (spoken)why does my heart go on beating
  why do these eyes of mine cry
  
  43. The River Of No Return --marilyn monroe
  
  
 ?。∕m, if you listen, you can hear it call, "Wailerie.")There is a river called the river of no return. Sometimes it’s peaceful and sometimes wild and free. Love is a traveller on the river of no return, swept on forever to be lost in the stormy sea.
  
  "Wailerie," I can hear the river call where the roaring water falls. "Wailerie," I can hear my lover call, "Come to me."
  
  I lost my love on the river, and forever my heart will yearn. Gone, gone forever down the river of no return. "Wailerie, wailerie’" He’ll never return to me. No return, no return, no return’
  1、夢(mèng)露的玉照:
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  2、這首歌是夢(mèng)露主演的同名電影的主題曲
  3、夢(mèng)露的星路歷程
  在美國(guó)和西方世界,瑪麗蓮夢(mèng)露這個(gè)名字幾乎是無(wú)人不曉的,即使在今天她仍然是大多數(shù)美 國(guó)人心目中的“性感女神”。50年代和60年代初,這名從孤兒院出來(lái)的姑娘紅透整個(gè)好萊塢,使多 少愛(ài)慕虛榮的少女羨煞;而她在36歲的風(fēng)華之年突然自殺身死,又使萬(wàn)千影迷困惑不解。
  1926年6月1日,原名諾瑪瓊培克的瑪麗蓮出生在洛杉磯綜合醫(yī)院里,此時(shí)父親已經(jīng)離開(kāi)她遠(yuǎn)走他鄉(xiāng),母親常酗酒,人事不知。因此她從小便寄居在別人家中,從這一家到那一家,從孤兒院以收容所,別的孩子流連于童年的歡樂(lè),她已嘗到顛連困苦的滋味。九歲的時(shí)候,母親仍然接受不了父親離去的事實(shí),被關(guān)進(jìn)精神病院。1941年,小諾瑪?shù)搅思永@麃喌摹鞍材纫虌尅奔?。一年后?6歲的諾瑪與大自己四歲的詹姆斯多爾蒂結(jié)了婚,第一次有了自己的家。不過(guò)這是個(gè)沒(méi)有愛(ài)情的婚姻,二年后丈夫應(yīng)征入伍,當(dāng)時(shí)正處第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間,不久丈夫以不滿(mǎn)諾瑪新職業(yè)為由提出了離婚。諾瑪?shù)男侣殬I(yè)是在一家時(shí)裝店作攝影模特。
  1946年,諾瑪被二十世紀(jì)??怂构敬罄习蹇粗信陌骞陀?,從此有了這個(gè)藝名——瑪麗蓮夢(mèng)露。初期的工作并不順利,她只是在一些在影片中跑跑堂,說(shuō)幾句“Hello!”之類(lèi)的臺(tái)詞,無(wú)奈之下為了五十美元,瑪麗蓮答應(yīng)拍裸體照。1950年約翰大膽啟用瑪麗蓮,讓她在《柏油叢林》擔(dān)任一二場(chǎng)重頭戲。緊接著瑪麗蓮與蓓蒂黛維斯等幾位大明星拍攝了《伊芙的底細(xì)》,出場(chǎng)時(shí)間雖然很短,但她那天真無(wú)邪,使人聽(tīng)了渾陶陶的對(duì)白讓人留下深刻印象,??怂构镜扔捌唤Y(jié)束,便與她簽定續(xù)訂七年合同。
  至53年之前,瑪麗蓮在影評(píng)界雖時(shí)獲贊譽(yù),但電影公司總是把她拘囿于演“白癡美人”一類(lèi)角色,為求發(fā)展,她上邁克爾契訶夫劇院聽(tīng)?wèi)騽≌n,排古典劇。這時(shí),有位記者認(rèn)出“金色之夢(mèng)”月份牌上的裸體模特兒即為瑪麗蓮,消息透露出來(lái),非但沒(méi)有毀掉她的前程,反而引起觀眾好奇,對(duì)她更為關(guān)注。1953年是瑪麗蓮人生的一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折點(diǎn),在電影《尼亞加拉》里第一次擔(dān)任主角。影片以有名于世的大瀑布為背景,烘托瑪麗蓮優(yōu)美的體態(tài)。該片上映以來(lái),場(chǎng)場(chǎng)爆滿(mǎn),她不僅一躍成為第一流的明星,而且成了好萊塢一手炮制的最了不起的神話(huà)。
  1954年瑪麗蓮與棒球健將喬。迪·馬吉奧結(jié)婚,無(wú)奈這位球界巨人醋勁不小,對(duì)她限制極多,兩人最終分道揚(yáng)鑣。1956年7月1日她又與劇作家阿瑟米勒另締良緣,他們是在1951年拍《青春常駐》一片時(shí)就認(rèn)識(shí)的?;榍艾旣惿彽拿坎坑捌汲鯇こ5馁u(mài)座,特別是在《七年之癢》這部片中她站在地鐵口的鏤空鐵板上,下面刮上來(lái)的風(fēng)把她的裙子吹得鼓漲起來(lái),成了她影片里最著名的鏡頭。不過(guò)夢(mèng)露已經(jīng)不滿(mǎn)足于傻瓜美人這種角色了,緊接著演出的《公共汽車(chē)站》里,她把自己的生活經(jīng)歷融匯進(jìn)人物身上,而且演戲才能達(dá)到了前所未有的高度,在片中,她出現(xiàn)在小酒吧時(shí),直有光采華艷、蓬蓽生輝之感。1957年與勞倫斯奧立佛合作的《王子與舞女》遭受從未有過(guò)的失敗,淡出二年后,瑪麗蓮很小心地接下了這部《熱情似火》,影片拍攝很辛苦,她為此兩次小產(chǎn),不過(guò)這一切都值得——《熱情似火》成為她票房收入最高的影片。
  1960年瑪麗蓮與克拉克蓋博合演了《不合時(shí)宜的人》,誰(shuí)也不曾料這分別是他們倆的最后一部影片,停機(jī)沒(méi)幾天,克拉克蓋博因心臟病猝發(fā)而不治身死。同年十一月她與丈夫阿瑟米勒正式分開(kāi),這次離異造成的感情創(chuàng)傷始終未能平復(fù)。她神經(jīng)衰弱嚴(yán)重起來(lái),只得進(jìn)精神病院作一短期療。一年后神采飛揚(yáng)的瑪麗蓮接拍新片《瀕于崩潰》,這是她自那張?jiān)路菖普掌詠?lái),第一次同意在片中拍裸體鏡頭。1962年6月1日,她在劇組攝影棚里,慶祝她三十六的生日。為了證明自己豐腴如初,風(fēng)韻依然,瑪麗蓮在伯特斯特恩的攝影機(jī)前功盡棄,取一幅透明紗巾略事遮掩,拍下生平最后一組極有魅力的照片。八月四日一個(gè)周末的星期六,是夢(mèng)露悲劇一生的高潮。這一天早晨,人們還看見(jiàn)她臉龐鮮艷。誰(shuí)也沒(méi)有料到,這是臨終前的最后光彩。
  那天晚上究竟發(fā)生了什么?是自殺還是謀殺?
  見(jiàn)過(guò)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)的人說(shuō):她臉朝下躺著,毯子滑在一旁,全身赤裸而僵硬。死去之際,手還抓著電話(huà)。她要找誰(shuí),或許是總統(tǒng)的弟弟,或許就是美國(guó)總統(tǒng)肯尼迪本人,然而電話(huà)的另一頭沒(méi)有回音,絕望之下,她服用了過(guò)量的安眠藥,于是乎,香消玉殞?zhuān)阍僖矝](méi)有醒來(lái)……
  時(shí)光荏再,作為電影業(yè)的產(chǎn)物,好萊塢的神話(huà),瑪麗蓮夢(mèng)露并沒(méi)有死,永遠(yuǎn)都是生氣勃勃的,她完美的體型,自然彎曲的睫毛,潔白無(wú)瑕的牙齒和偶爾挑逗的動(dòng)作,可謂是“回眸一笑百媚生”的形象仍印成千千萬(wàn)萬(wàn)份撒向人間。
  4、《THE RIVER OF NO RETURN》劇情簡(jiǎn)介:瑪麗蓮.夢(mèng)露與羅伯特.米徹姆主演的西部文藝片,背景是淘金熱時(shí)代的美國(guó)西北山區(qū)。米契姆飾演剛出獄的囚犯,他來(lái)到鎮(zhèn)上接他的兒子回家,認(rèn)識(shí)了照顧兒子的酒吧歌女夢(mèng)露,但也引起了夢(mèng)露男友的懷疑。當(dāng)米契姆和兒子在農(nóng)莊耕種時(shí),男友前來(lái)打倒他,偷了他的槍和馬,趕到礦區(qū)去淘金。夢(mèng)露感到不忍心,留下來(lái)照顧米契姆。此時(shí),印第安人前來(lái)突擊農(nóng)莊,三人沿河流逃亡到鎮(zhèn)上。
  
  45.Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree -tony orlando
  
  
  I’m coming home; I’ve done my time. Now I’ve got to know what is and isn’t mine. If you received my letter telling you still want me, if you still want me. Tie a yellow ribbon ’round the old oak tree. It’s been three long years. Do you still want me? If I don’t see a ribbon ’round the old oak tree, I’ll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me, if I don’t see a yellow ribbon ’round the old oak tree.
  
  Bus driver, please look for me, ’cause I couldn’t bear to see what I might see. I’m really still in prison, and my love she holds the key. A simple yellow ribbon’s what I need to set me free. I wrote and told her please.
  Now the whole danm bus is cheering, and I can’t believe I see a hundred yellow ribbons ’round the old oak tree. I’m coming home.

  In conjunction with his backing duo Dawn, singer Tony Orlando was one of the biggest pop stars of the early ’70s, best remembered for the mammoth hit "Tie a Yellow Ribbon ’Round the Ole Oak Tree." Born Michael Anthony Orlando Cassavitis in New York City on April 3, 1944, he entered the music business at the age of 16 following a successful audition for producer Don Kirshner. Orlando’s first hit, 1961’s "Halfway to Paradise," was written for him by Carole King, who also authored the Top 20 follow-up, "Bless You." However, after scoring a minor chart entry with "Happy Times (Are Here to Stay)," his career ground to a halt when Kirshner sold his company to Screen Gems, which showed considerably more interest in publishing music than recording it; Orlando was given a job with the company’s promotional department, and in 1967 he was tapped by Columbia Records to head their own publishing division, April-Blackwood Music.

  擠出那兩扇陰森、銹斑的大鐵門(mén),撿起獄警狠摔臉上,重砸地上的舊包囊,噼啪著節(jié)節(jié)伸直腰。六年中,渾身被毆傷的地方,現(xiàn)在又爭(zhēng)先恐后地痛。忘久了怎么站立,瞇著高墻外陌生的陽(yáng)光,我有些暈眩;聽(tīng)見(jiàn)里面獄友們熟悉的慘叫,我忍不住條件反射,咳了今天的第一口鮮血。
  
  遠(yuǎn)方老橡樹(shù)下的你,是否會(huì)拆開(kāi)我的信?六年了,那是唯一的一封。還記得彼此初見(jiàn)時(shí),你的長(zhǎng)發(fā)隨風(fēng)散揚(yáng)。貧窮的我只夠買(mǎi)條劣質(zhì)的黃絲帶,你不忤地微笑,用它細(xì)細(xì)圍住你優(yōu)質(zhì)的青絲。此刻,它踡在我結(jié)疤的掌心,而我將啟程,以?xún)H剩的幾塊錢(qián),捎上擁擠破舊的公共汽車(chē),揣著無(wú)限的希望,駛向你。
  
  當(dāng)車(chē)子彎個(gè)彎,搖晃著岔入那返鄉(xiāng)的支路;當(dāng)?shù)仄骄€(xiàn)盡頭,我們的小屋慢慢地尖上來(lái),我該如何對(duì)你說(shuō),其實(shí)再民主的國(guó)家也比一個(gè)最罪惡的人,犯過(guò)更大更多更重的罪,那戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng),政治,法律。其實(shí)間接地,每個(gè)人都曾經(jīng)犯罪過(guò),即使圣賢,偉人,天使。我該如何對(duì)你說(shuō),其實(shí)我還沒(méi)出獄,若你不再接受我,從今以后,人間就是我一座大監(jiān)獄。
  
  歷經(jīng)這些漫長(zhǎng)孤苦的歲月,愛(ài),一個(gè)昨日的囚徒,還有沒(méi)資格成為春天最后的歸人,而不是今日的過(guò)客,明日的浪子,后日異鄉(xiāng)街頭的一具無(wú)名尸......
  
  
  走出這一筑蔭涼、刷漆的小木屋,垂眸六年中初次穿上的長(zhǎng)裙,春光下,它有些不爭(zhēng)氣,褪色一如我的顏。過(guò)晌了,斜倚著門(mén),我一段段攤開(kāi),早晨小鎮(zhèn)里所有買(mǎi)到的黃布,獨(dú)自剪成一條條黃絲帶。下午的春氣真是暖,我欠起身,開(kāi)始把它們一一結(jié)在小屋旁,公路邊,那棵多年的老橡樹(shù)上,系滿(mǎn)每一根枝干。晚風(fēng)中,它們將向漸近的你萬(wàn)千地招手。
  
  度過(guò)那些黯淡恥辱的日子,黑暗看慣了你,你也慣看了黑暗,所以視力一定很模糊。我得撐住疲倦的雙手,扶穩(wěn)搖搖欲墜的梯,堅(jiān)持著掛滿(mǎn)十條、廿條、一百條。
  
  六年了,目送一輛輛公共汽車(chē)吱啞開(kāi)過(guò),碾起漫天的灰埃,遍地的黃塵?!皠e愁深夜雨,孤影小窗燈”,每天單車(chē)單身來(lái)往人群,我該如何對(duì)你說(shuō),即使你淪落到社會(huì)的最下層,埋沒(méi)在世俗的最中間,也仍然是我的心上人。六年了,鎖著這顆心,守著這個(gè)身,從沒(méi)有請(qǐng)哪位男子進(jìn)去。而今宵,我多么愿意和你,共盡著纏綿繾綣,一夜做愛(ài)到天亮。
  
  五點(diǎn)鐘了,我該進(jìn)屋洗菜燒飯,你也該到。記得你說(shuō)過(guò),“活在這樣的世上,人生沒(méi)半點(diǎn)意義,什么事都值不得做?!笨墒窃撊绾螌?duì)你說(shuō),這一生這一日這一次,我卻找到最意義的事:在下午的陽(yáng)光里,把這棵蒼蒼的老橡樹(shù),佩上無(wú)數(shù)嶄新的黃絲帶,高高低低、長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)短短、大大小小......
  
  Tie yellow ribbon round the old oak tree,幸福是馨黃色的;
  Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree,愛(ài)不在乎統(tǒng)治階級(jí),你是好人還是壞人,是順民還是逆犯;
  Tie a hundred yellow ribbon round the old oak tree,如今的時(shí)代,有誰(shuí)能夠清白地活著!
  
  3、PUT THE BLAME ON ME
  BLAME+事物+ON+人=BLAME+人+FOR+事物 將某事歸咎于某人
  
  46.Top of the world-carpenters
  such a feelin’s comin’ over me
  there is wonder in most everthing i see
  not a cloud in the sky got the sun in my eyes
  and i won’t be surprised if it’s a dream
  everything i want the world to be
  is now coming true especially for me
  and the reason is clear
  it’s because you are here
  you’re the nearest thing to heaven that i’ve seen
  i’m on the top of the world lookin’ down on creation
  and the only explanation i can find
  is the love that i’ve found
  every since you’ve been around your love
  put me at the top of the world
  something in the wind has learned my name
  and it’s tellin’ me that things are not the same
  in the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
  there’s a pleasin’ sense of happiness for me
  there is only one wish on my mind
  when this day is through i hope that i will find
  that tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
  all i need will be mine if you are here

  With their light, airy melodies and meticulously crafted, clean arrangements, the Carpenters stood in direct contrast with the excessive, gaudy pop/rock of the ’70s; yet they became one of the most popular artists of the decade, scoring 12 Top Ten hits, including three number one singles.
  Karen Carpenter’s calm, pretty voice was the most distinctive element of their music, settling in perfectly amidst the precise, lush arrangements provided by her brother Richard. The duo’s sound drew more from pre-rock pop than rock & roll, but that didn’t prevent the Carpenters from appealing to a variety of audiences, particularly Top 40, easy listening, and adult contemporary. While their popularity declined during the latter half of the ’70s, they remained one of the most distinctive and recognizable acts of the decade produced
