美國(guó)文化脫口秀 第399期:必須收藏的周末英語(yǔ)歌
關(guān)鍵詞：
You get two benefits from one show: 一集節(jié)目，兩個(gè)收獲
Enjoy beautiful weekend songs and learn English at the same time: 邊享受好聽的歌曲，邊學(xué)英語(yǔ)
We want to make sure we choose songs suitable for learning: 我們給大家選了適合英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)的歌
Some songs are not suitable, because the words are mumbled and can't be used in everyday situations: 不是所有歌都適合學(xué)習(xí)用途，比如有些歌詞唱得很不清楚，或者歌詞本身也不是日常使用的語(yǔ)言
The Lazy Song 賴床聽的歌
A perfect weekend song from Bruno Mars: 是Bruno Mars一首特別好聽的周末歌曲
The lazy song: 懶人的歌
I don't feel like doing anything on the weekend: 周末，我什么都不想做
Just wanna kick my feet up: 抬腿、踢腳
Such a relaxed position: 很放松的姿勢(shì)
"歌詞"英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)?
這兩個(gè)說(shuō)法都可以 Lyrics Words
區(qū)別是words這個(gè)說(shuō)法比lyrics更口語(yǔ)
The lyrics to this song are very simple, but super practical: 這些歌的歌詞都簡(jiǎn)單，但非常實(shí)用
For example, words like "lounging", "chilln'", they are all different ways to say "relax": 比如"lounging", "chilln'"都是不同的表達(dá)“relax"的說(shuō)法
For me, a good English song for learning should have lyrics that can be used in everyday situations: 對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，適合學(xué)英語(yǔ)的歌一定要有通用、實(shí)用的歌詞
But many songs like R&B songs and rap songs are nice to listen to, but not the best for learning: 有些現(xiàn)在的R&B, rap歌就沒法用來(lái)學(xué)英語(yǔ)
We hope the songs we chose today are great to listen to and have great learning value: 希望今天選的歌大家都覺得好聽，又有學(xué)習(xí)價(jià)值
The Lazy Song
Today I don't feel like doin' anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
don't feel like picking up my phone
so leave a message at the tone
cause today I swear I'm not doing anything
I'm gonna kick my feet up and stare at the fan
...
Perfect Date Song 復(fù)古浪漫情歌
What a beautiful song: 這首歌太好聽了
You sang it so well: 你也唱得很好
Lots of practice: 練了很多次
It's from your countrymen Michael Buble?: 是你的加拿大同胞Michael Buble?唱的
必須收藏的周末英語(yǔ)歌
Something Stupid
I know I'd stand in line
Until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance
I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me
Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid Like I love you
Each time I listen to this song, I don't want it to end. It's so beautiful: 我每次聽這首歌，都不想讓它停
It's a very retro song: 特別復(fù)古的情調(diào)
It was first sung by Frank Sinatra and his wife Nancy Sinatra: 最早是Frank Sinatra和他太太Nancy一起唱的
K歌英語(yǔ)
Duet: 對(duì)唱
Melody: 旋律
Harmony: 對(duì)唱、合聲
I like old songs because the lyrics are simple words, but put together in a way that flow and rhyme beautifully: 我特別喜歡老歌，因?yàn)楦柙~很有魅力，簡(jiǎn)單的詞，放在一起，卻很流暢押韻
Lovely Bossa Nova 輕柔、溫暖
Warm and inviting voice: 溫暖、吸引人的嗓音
It's a perfect song for an afternoon at Starbucks: 這首歌特別適合下午在星巴克聽
I was a bit scared of listening to Lisa Ono for a while: 但我有段時(shí)間有點(diǎn)怕聽小野麗莎
People selling pirated CDs downstairs at our old office played the 2 same bossa nova songs everyday for 2 years: 我們以前辦公室樓下賣盜版碟的，同樣兩首bossa nova歌放了兩年
And the same verse: 而且放來(lái)放去都是同一段
If you live in Shanghai, you probably get what we mean: 同在上海的朋友，應(yīng)該有體會(huì)吧
The songs we chose today are all easy-listening songs: 今天放的都是特別容易聽的歌曲
Spencer said they're for old people: Spencer說(shuō)都是上年紀(jì)的人聽的
Spencer isn‘t getting any younger, let's put it that way: 可是他自己也不小了
