Depeche Mode這首1982年的早期經典See You
傳神的唱出青澀少男懷想情思的靦腆
MV中Depeche Mode幾位團員有趣的鳥樣
提醒著∼這是20多年前的[老歌]了
20多年過去了∼
變化的不只是長相
Depeche Mode樂風也從80年代的流暢、輕快
到中後期的沉穩內斂、低調、陰鬱
並在樂壇奠定了他們在電子音樂先驅與教主的不朽地位
20多年過去了∼
Depeche Mode一直是我的All time favorite之一
這首See You的旋律偶然會浮現在腦中
特別是出現心儀對象時
但See You歌詞描寫的情境卻幾乎沒發生過在自己身上
別說是See到對方啦
連要跟對方說∼
We'll I try not to hold you
And I'll try not to kiss you
And I won't even touch you.
的機會也沒有
因為∼心動卻少有行動
All I wanna do is see you again
我只想再見到妳
Is that too much to ask for?
這樣的要求過份嗎
I just want to see your sweet smile,
我想看妳甜美的微笑
Smiled the way it was before
像過去一樣甜美的笑
We'll I try not to hold you
我不會抱妳
And I'll try not to kiss you
也不會親妳
And I won't even touch you.
更不會去碰觸妳
All I wanna do is see you
我只想見妳
Don't you know that it's true.
難道妳不相信是真的嗎？
I remember the days when we walked through
the woods,
我記得我們曾走過森林
We'd sit on a bench for a while.
坐上長凳上一會
I treasure the way we used to laugh and play
我珍藏了我們過去曾有的玩笑、嬉鬧
And look in each others eyes.
與四目相接
You can keep me at a distance if you don't
trust my resistance.
假如你不相信我的自制力，你可以離我遠一些
But I swear I won't touch you.
但我發誓我絕對不會碰妳的
All I wanna do is see you
我只想見妳
Don't you know that it's true.
難道妳不相信是真的嗎？
Well I know five years is a long time and that times
change (times change)
我知道我五年是好長的時間也變化很多
But I think that you'll find people are basically
the same (basically the same)
但我相信妳將會發現∼基本上我依舊沒變
If the water's still flowing we can go for a swim
假如還適合游泳，我們可下水一游
And do the things we used to do.
就像過去那樣
And if I'm reluctant you can pull me in,
假如我看起來不大情願，你大可把拖我下水
We can relive our youth.
再次經歷我們的年輕歲月
But we'll just stay friendly like sister and brother
我們的關係仍可維持像兄妹般的親善
Though I think I still love you.
儘管我已經愛上了妳
