這首經典歌曲選自ABBA樂隊專輯《The Complete Studio Recordings》,ABBA還是具有相當的天賦的,他(她)們有許多朗朗上口的曲目經過不同歌手的翻唱和不同音樂形式的改編,依舊散發著歷久彌新的魅力,這遠遠超出了一支普通流行組合娛樂大眾于一時的存在價值。ABBA經年不衰,甚至在樂隊解散后也依舊如此。本人也以此曲向新老朋友們表示衷心的致意和感謝!Happy New Year!
Happy New Year
No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say
Happy new year Happy new year
(......)
Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway
Happy new year Happy new year
(......)
Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine
Happy new year Happy new year
(...May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I...)
沒有更多的香檳,只有煙花綻放
我們感覺著曾經的失去和浪漫
聚會結束的早晨似乎有些灰色
一切有別于昨日
現在是對我們說的時候了
新年快樂 新年快樂
有時候我想如何到達美麗的新世界
在我們生活的終點看它蓬勃發展
噢,是的,認為會好是傻瓜
推拖不前會誤入歧途
要不斷前行
新年快樂 新年快樂
在我看來,曾經的夢想不會再有
它只不過是地板上紙屑
這是一個結束
再過10年的時間
我們會發現等待的是什么
在89線的終點
新年快樂 新年快樂
我們現在都有著共同的設想
世界的每一個鄰居都是朋友
新年快樂 新年快樂
我們都有著同樣的希望,我們將會努力嘗試
不妨放下終點的結果
你和我
