前些天在朋友圈看到一位朋友在晒电子婚礼请柬。
看完之后，我自己觉得有点尬。
嗯？
因为BGM（Background Music)。
这种请柬一般都是婚庆公司给做的吧。
但有些从业人员并没有能力去分辨自己选的英语歌曲合不合适。
我看的请柬里的BGM是Westlife 西域男孩
那首经典“My Love” 《我的爱》（如果没有听过，自己去网易云、QQ音乐等各大平台搜索）
你会说：怎么了？多经典啊！
的确，我非常喜欢这首歌。
从旋律到歌词，到演绎，我都喜欢。
那有啥不对吗？
主要是歌曲本身所表达的意思和这个special occasion不搭。
再来看看这首歌的歌词吧。
这首歌虽然是爱的主题
但是
一首写给前女友的歌。
我们一起来看看这首歌写了啥
An empty street， an empty house， a hole inside my heart
第一句，空寂的街道和房间渲染了悲伤的氛围，心也被掏空了，暗示了心中的痛和失落。
Im all alone and the rooms are getting *** aller
人物出现，一个“独” 字更衬托了心中的凄楚，同时与后半句呼应。因为心痛，空间也仿佛变得更加狭小，让人无法呼吸。
I wonder how I wonder why I wonder where they are
The days we had the songs we sang together
这两句是怀念当初在一起的日子，一起唱的歌。往日历历在目，眼前物事人非。
And oh my love Im holding on forever
Reaching for a love that seems so far
然后，当然是表达自己还是和原来一样，执着于那份爱。但爱已成往事，触不可及。
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again my love
Over seas and coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again
接下来是一番美好的憧憬和希望
希望在梦中，漂洋过海去看她，在天蓝草绿的地方，能够再次与心中的爱人相见。
I try to read I go to work Im laughing with my friends
But I cant stop to keep myself from thinking
最后再次回到眼前
虽然用力去读书、去工作，和朋友欢笑，但还是忍不住，去想。
副歌部分在重复怀念和憧憬的部分。
如果新娘懂英语，后果会不会很严重呢？
好了，说到这儿，大家怎么看呢？
你会吧这首歌用在自己的请柬里或是婚礼上吗？

最后，还是想说，学点儿英语吧！
附歌词：
英文原词是这样的：
An empty street， an empty house， a hole inside my heart
Im all alone and the rooms are getting *** aller
I wonder how I wonder why I wonder where they are
The days we had the songs we sang together
Oh yeah
And oh my love Im holding on forever
Reaching for a love that seems so far
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again my love
Over seas and coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again
My love
I try to read I go to work Im laughing with my friends
But I cant stop to keep myself from thinking
Oh no
I wonder how I wonder why I wonder where they are
The days we had the songs we sang together
Oh yeah
And oh my love Im holding on forever
Reaching for a love that seems so far
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again my love
Over seas and coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again
To hold you in my arms
To promise you my love
To tell you from the heart
Youre all Im thinking of
Im reaching for a love that seems so far
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again my love
Over seas and coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again my love
Say a little prayer
Dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again
Over seas and coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again
My love
