词条 mockingbird
释义

歌曲名称

概述

这是一首Eminem写给他的女儿Hailie的歌,歌中还提到了他的侄女Laney,以及他的前妻Kimbery A Mathers。

整首歌的内容是Eminem向女儿倾诉,回忆着成名前穷困不堪的生活、回忆着与前妻感情破裂的经过。

表达了对女儿深深的愧疚以及渴望弥补的心情,细细听来简直催人泪下。

字里行间能够实实在在地感受到Eminem作为一个父亲对女儿那份深厚的爱。

没有浮夸的配器以及电子合成,只是十分简单的钢琴伴奏和鼓点节奏。

Eminem的声音一次又一次地轻轻敲击着耳膜,但却像是往听者的心脏中伸出了一只手,将听者的心揉得生疼。

听Eminem诉说着自己曾经在那一年的圣诞节因为买不起礼物而深深自责乃至整夜流泪。

听他诉说着由于工作的原因,自己只能看着女儿和侄女的照片想象着她们的样子和声音,实在是令人无法不为之动容。

而最后一段,Eminem大声地唱道:

“我会为你歌唱,我会为你做任何事情,只为了能看到你开心的微笑”

甚至于要去找黑心珠宝商人的碴儿,让人为了这种深切的父爱而感动。

意义

什么意思不重要,我听这首歌曾经不明白为什么以一个EM将来可能会带女儿的生物做歌名,多听几次自然会明白,我个人它代表了EM曾经和女儿一起生活时坚强的信念和对新生活的渴望,尽管那么难以把握——

And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine I'mma break that birdies neck

看明白了么?EM一直是在尽最大努力去争取,那个鸟儿其实是他对这个世界希望的缩影。如果他再失败他就会寻短见。不过好在我们的EM最后熬过来了。

补充

And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine I'mma break that birdies neck这句歌词应该是根据美国的儿歌改的,儿歌原来的意思就是宝贝不要哭,爸爸给你买mockingbird,如果它不唱歌的话,爸爸就给你买钻石戒指。

所以他才会在歌词里说如果这只鸟不唱歌的话我就扭断他的脖子。表达了他对女儿的父爱。

I'd go back to the jewler who sold it to ya And make him eat every carat 要去找黑心珠宝商人的碴儿,是因为儿歌的下一段说,如果钻石戒指变成黄铜了(就是不再闪亮了呼应上一句ring don't shine),他一定会找那个黑心珠宝商让他把上面的每克拉一颗颗的吃下去。

这两段歌词是连在一起的。都是根据hush,little baby里面的歌词而写出来的。

节选

Hush, little baby, don''t say a word,

安静,小宝贝,不要说话,

爸爸会去给你买一个知更鸟。

And if that mockingbird don''t sing,

如果知更鸟不唱歌,

Papa''s gonna buy you a diamond ring.

爸爸会去给你买一枚钻石戒指。

And if that diamond ring turns brass,

如果钻石戒指变成黄铜,

Papa''s gonna buy you a looking glass.

爸爸会去给你买一面镜子。

歌手简介

埃米纳姆(Eminem)是美国的一名说唱歌手。其风格类型为:Hardcore Rap(硬核说唱)。埃米纳姆最大的突破就是证明白人也能介入到黑人一统天下的说唱(RAP)界中,而且获得巨大的成功。同时他的叛逆不仅长期以来深受美国青少年喜爱,也让他在舆论中始终遭到抨击。

动物名称

嘲鸫 (chao dong)

英文mockingbird

雀形目(Passeriformes)嘲鸫科(Mimidae)的几种善模仿的鸣禽的统称。产于西半球。喙向下弯曲。北方的小嘲鸫(Mimus polyglottos)以善于模仿而闻名。体长27公分(10.5吋),色灰,翼和尾色深并均具白斑。分布于美国北部到整个巴西,并已引入夏威夷。小嘲鸫大量生息于城郊,常栖息于高处鸣啭,能奋力保卫其领域,甚至在夜间也鸣叫。其他小嘲鸫属(Mimus)的种,与沼泽生活的黑帽嘲鸫(Donacobius属)、 Melanotis caerulescens,蓝嘲鸫的一种。

中美洲的蓝嘲鸫(Melanotis属)均分布于中美洲和南美洲至巴塔哥尼亚一带。三斑嘲鸫属(Nesomimus)在不同的岛屿上有不同的亚种,它们具有与加拉帕戈斯地雀相似的适应辐射,但不那麼典型。 嘲鸫长23---25厘米,长着小嘴和尾巴,羽毛呈灰褐色。它是食肉鸟。虽然并不美丽,但它的音乐天赋弥补了外貌上的不足。它的歌声宛如不断变化的、动听的”淙淙”流水。反复唱过一支悦耳的曲子后它会换一支曲子再接着唱。 每首歌里,都有许多音调是从别处模仿来的。如人声,甚至机器发出的声音。有时,其他鸟的叫声也会被它模仿得惟妙惟肖。例如,当夜莺被引入佛罗里达时,当地的嘲鸫就曾一个音一个音地模仿过它的歌声。 但并不是人人都喜欢嘲鸫,因为它们会吃掉各种水果。可是,它们也吃对庄稼有害的昆虫。 嘲鸫居住在郊野的灌木丛和广阔的森林中。它们栖息在树上,以歌声来标明自己的领地。 嘲鸫整年歌唱是为了标明自己的领地。它们精力充沛,除保卫自己外,甚至还会飞到远处袭击狗和人类。
