    观赏歌剧好辛苦

    改良版的费加罗真是复杂:选段是意大利语的,对白是中文的,中间还穿插英语和上海话,偶尔还京剧一下。我一会儿忙着看字幕,一会儿忙着看表演。真是好辛苦!
     
    总的来说唱的还挺好听的(对我这个外行来说),但是服装也太不敬业啦,还不如话剧的演员。

    Over You

    Now that it's all said and done,
    I can't believe you were the one
    To build me up and tear me down,
    Like an old abandoned house.
    What you said when you left
    Just left me cold and out of breath.
    I fell too far, was in way too deep.
    Guess I let you get the best of me.

    Well, I never saw it coming.
    I should've started running
    A long, long time ago.
    And I never thought I'd doubt you,
    I'm better off without you
    More than you, more than you know.
    I'm slowly getting closure.
    I guess it's really over.
    I'm finally getting better.
    And now I'm picking up the pieces.
    I'm spending all of these years
    Putting my heart back together.
    'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
    I got over you.

    You took a hammer to these walls,
    Dragged the memories down the hall,
    Packed your bags and walked away.
    There was nothing I could say.
    And when you slammed the front door shut,
    A lot of others opened up,
    So did my eyes so I could see
    That you never were the best for me.

    Well, I never saw it coming.
    I should've started running
    A long, long time ago.
    And I never thought I'd doubt you,
    I'm better off without you
    More than you, more than you know.
    I'm slowly getting closure.
    I guess it's really over.
    I'm finally getting better.
    And now I'm picking up the pieces.
    I'm spending all of these years
    Putting my heart back together.
    'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
    I got over you.

    Well, I never saw it coming.
    I should've started running
    A long, long time ago.
    And I never thought I'd doubt you,
    I'm better off without you
    More than you, more than you know.

    Well, I never saw it coming.
    I should've started running
    A long, long time ago.
    And I never thought I'd doubt you,
    I'm better off without you
    More than you, more than you know.
    I'm slowly getting closure.
    I guess it's really over.
    I'm finally getting better.
    And now I'm picking up the pieces.
    I'm spending all of these years
    Putting my heart back together.
    Well I'm putting my heart back together,
    'Cause I got over you.
    Well I got over you.
    I got over you.
    'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
    I got over you.

    菩提树间的爱情

    Ma-ia-hii 
    Ma-ia-huu
    Ma-ia-hoo
    Ma-ia-haa

    Alo Salut sunt eu un haiduc
    Si te rog iubirea mea primeste fericirea.
    Alo alo sunt eu Picasso
    Ti-am dat beep si sunt voinic
    Dar sa stii nu-ti cer nimic.

    Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei
    Nu ma nu ma iei nu ma nu ma nu ma iei.
    Chipul tau si dragostea din tei
    Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

    Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei
    Nu ma nu ma iei nu ma nu ma nu ma iei.
    Chipul tau si dragostea din tei
    Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

    Te sun sa-ti spun ce simt acum
    Alo iubirea mea sunt eu fericirea.
    Alo alo sunt iarasi eu Picasso
    Ti-am dat beep si sunt voinic
    Dar sa stii nu-ti cer nimic.

    Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei
    Nu ma nu ma iei nu ma nu ma nu ma iei.
    Chipul tau si dragostea din tei
    Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

    Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei
    Nu ma nu ma iei nu ma nu ma nu ma iei.
    Chipul tau si dragostea din tei
    Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

    Ma-ia-hii
    Ma-ia-huu
    Ma-ia-hoo
    Ma-ia-haa

    Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei
    Nu ma nu ma iei nu ma nu ma nu ma iei.
    Chipul tau si dragostea din tei
    Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.
    Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei
    Nu ma nu ma iei nu ma nu ma nu ma iei.
    Chipul tau si dragostea din tei
    Mi-amintesc de ochii tai

    So much for my happy ending
    Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

    Let's talk this over
    It's not like we're dead
    Was it something I did?
    Was it something You said?
    Don't leave me hanging
    In a city so dead
    Held up so high
    On such a breakable thread

    You were all the things I thought I knew
    And I thought we could be

    You were everything, everything that I wanted
    We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
    And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
    All this time you were pretending
    So much for my happy ending
    Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

    You've got your dumb friends
    I know what they say
    They tell you I'm difficult
    But so are they
    But they don't know me
    Do they even know you?
    All the things you hide from me
    All the shit that you do

    You were all the things I thought I knew
    And I thought we could be

    It's nice to know that you were there
    Thanks for acting like you cared
    And making me feel like I was the only one
    It's nice to know we had it all
    Thanks for watching as I fall
    And letting me know we were done

    Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
    So much for my happy ending

    Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

    je m'appelle hélène

    A friend mentioned the song below. I'm sure I came across it before but this is the first time I read the lyrics. Also it's the first time I feel French is beautiful, thinking about whether I should pick it up and learn a bit more of this language sometime.
     
    hélène, je m'appelle hélène
    伊莲娜,我叫伊莲娜
    je suis une fille
    我是一个女孩
    comme les autres
    就像其他女孩一样
    hélène
    伊莲娜
    j'ai mes joies, mes peines
    我有我的欢乐和痛苦
    elles font ma vie
    这就是我的生活
    comme la votre
    就像您的一样
    je voudrais trouver l'amour
    我在找寻我的爱情
    simplement trouver l'amour
    只不过是想找到爱情
    hélène, je m'appelle hélène
    伊莲娜,我叫伊莲娜
    je suis une fille
    我是一个女孩
    comme les autres
    就像其他女孩一样
    hélène
    伊莲娜
    si mes nuits sont pleines
    如果每夜
    de reves de poemes
    都能有诗歌和美梦相伴
    je n'ai rien d'autres
    我会别无所求
    je voudrais trouver l'amour
    我在找寻我的爱情
    simplement trouver l'amour
    只不过是想找到爱情
    et même si j'ai ma photo dans tous les journaux chaque semaine
    就算是每周的报纸上都有我的照片
    personne ne m'attend le soir
    (可是)夜里却没有人在等我
    quand je rentre tard
    当我晚归的时候
    personne ne fait battre mon coeur
    没有人能够让我有心跳的感觉
    lorsque s'eteignent les projecteurs
    当舞台上的灯光熄灭
    hélène, je m'appelle hélène
    伊莲娜,我叫伊莲娜
    je suis une fille
    我是一个女孩
    comme les autres
    就像其他女孩一样
    je voudrais trouver l'amour
    我在找寻我的爱情
    simplement trouver l'amour
    只不过是想找到爱情
    et même quand à la télévous me regardez
    就算你们在电视上看到的我
    sourire et chanter
    欢歌笑语
    personne ne m'attends le soir
    (可是)夜里却没有人在等我
    quand je rentre tard
    当我晚归的时候
    personne ne fait battre mon coeur
    没有人能够让我有心跳的感觉
    lorsque s'éteignent les projecteurs
    当舞台上的灯光熄灭
    hélène, je m'appelle hélène
    伊莲娜,我叫伊莲娜
    je suis une fille
    我是一个女孩
    comme les autres
    就像其他女孩一样

    simply doesn't necessarily mean the same

    One's happiness simply doesn't necessarily mean the same for others. Vice versa.
    Someone falls to pieces
    Sleeping all alone
    Someone kills the pain
    Spinning in the silence
    She finally drifts away
    Someone gets excited
    In a chapel yard
    Catches a bouquet
    Another lays a dozen
    White roses on a grave

    ......

    Someone finds salvation in everyone
    Another only pain
    Someone tries to hide himself
    Down inside himself he breathes
    Someone swears his true love
    Until the end of time
    Another runs away
    Separate or united?
    healty or insane?
