好歌推薦︱Everybody Needs a Best Friend:知己不可少
「Everybody Needs a Best Friend」是電影《泰迪熊》(Ted )的主題曲。爵士樂的跳躍節奏加上爵士名伶Norah Jones慵懶輕盈的演唱,使得這首以「友情」為主題的歌曲變得十分俏皮可愛,讓人不禁聯想起電影里泰迪熊和男主人公John之間滑稽又溫暖的友情。影片中的泰迪熊是一隻有生命的玩具熊,它陪John走過了孤獨的童年,也見證了John從男孩變成男人的成長曆程。27年來,這對摯友一起經歷了很多事情,也接受了許多考驗。他們一起瘋,一起鬧,一起傷心,一起歡笑,成為彼此不可或缺的朋友。
亞里士多德曾說:「A true friend is onesoul in two bodies. (摯友如異體同心。)」最好的朋友是和我們心有靈犀的人,不用過多的言語也知道我們在想些什麼。他們分享著我們的歡樂,也分擔著我們的憂愁。在漫長的人生旅途中,everybody needs a best friend,因為他們會一路相伴,陪我們一起經歷風雨,與我們一起成長,不可或缺,也無可替代。
LYRICS
My words are lazy
My thoughts are hazy
But this is one thing I m sure of
Everybody needs a best friend
I m happy I m yours
You got a double
Who brings you trouble
And though you re better without me
Everybody needs a best friend
I m happy I m yours
A fool could see decidedly
That you re a ten and I m a three
A royal breed is what you need
So how did you come to be stuck with a bummer likeme?
Oh you got a head full ofsomeone dreadful
But how that someone adoresyou
Everybody needs a best friend
I m happy I m yours
Refrain
Oh you got a head full ofsomeone dreadful
And yet at last that someoneadores you
Everybody needs a best friend
I m happy I m yours
I m just a clown
And I ll bring you down
But you just don t care
Cause your best friend is me
