I GOT NOTHING TO DO= 注意这里O的发音,更接近美音了,但是从整首歌的发音来看,主唱更偏向英音。尽管如此,一些英国歌手也会这样,将O的发音发的很夸张(比如乔治·迈克尔)。
TO CHANGE MY POINT OF VIEW= Your point of view是对某样事情的看法。
EVERYTHING WILL HAPPEN=他当下的状态并不”乐观“,"nothing ever happens"相对的,这里"everything will happen"说明一切都会变好,隐喻着“我将会走出阴霾开心起来,我会向前看。”
【歌曲赏析】
愚人花园(Fool's Garden)原版MV:
There’s been a lot of speculation about the meaning of this song, particularly the meaning of the lemon tree. There are two powerful opposed metaphors in this song: the blue sky and the lemon tree. The blue sky is quite obvious, it represents a sunny day (a sky without clouds), and so it stands for happiness and optimism. The lemon tree is not a typical metaphor, but usually people take it as a sign for bitterness (lemon is acid, sour, bitter, and a lemon tree has lots of lemons), and so it would stand for sadness, pessimism, the opposite of blue sky.
But everything makes sense if we know one fact about this song: The singer (Peter Freudenthaler) had a French girlfriend who died in a car accident... she crashed against a lemon tree. So yes, the lemon tree stands for bitterness, sadness, it’s the opposite of blue sky, but now we can easily understand why.
