這是Billy Joel所演唱的Vienna,收錄在他1977年所發行的The Stranger 專輯裡。第一次聽到這首歌是在三十姑娘一朵花裡(by the way,這又是一部被翻譯名搞爛的片,翻得實在很鳥,其實片子還滿好看的,劇情在當時來說挺有新意的了,而且看完有種溫心的感覺,臉上會有微笑,還滿推薦的),在片中,女主角發現原來30歲的自己一點都不是以前想像的樣子,又在工作、人際、愛情上遇到低潮,坐著火車回很有沒回的家時放得背景音樂。
這歌是我很喜歡的曲風,而且Billy Joel的聲音是那麼的有生命,所以一聽到就愛上了。每當我工作得疲累、為生活奔波得狼狽、在心中找不出動力振作、對未來趕到一片茫然時,我就把窗戶都關起來,然後大聲的放這首歌。雖然整首歌的歌詞並不是這個意思,但是聽到那句"Slow down you crazy child",不知道為什麼,我的心就能比較放鬆一點。
就像現在的我,極度需要這首歌。不知道為什麼,工作總是做不完,怎麼會有這麼多是排山倒海湧進來,想要專心唸書都是奢求。每天除了睡覺、洗澡、吃飯都在工作,可是為什麼做成這樣,還是那麼窮 QQ。
累了嗎.......聽首歌吧.........
Slow down you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart tell me why
You are still so afraid?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You got so much to do and only
so many hours in a day
But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you an just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you
Slow down you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself
That you forfeit what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
But you know you can't always see when you're right
You got your passion you got your pride
BUt don't you know only fools are satisfied?
Dream on but don't imagine they'll al come true
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you
Slow down you crazy child
Take the phone off the hook
And disappeaar for a while
It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize...
Vienna waits for you.
