I followed my heart into the fire
Got burned, got broken down by desire
I tried, I tried but the smoke in my eyes
Left me blurry
歡迎收聽愛吧聽歌學英語的單元，我是主播Althea。
今天要跟大家分享的歌曲出自2016年電影《歡樂好聲音》中的插曲set it all free，
原唱是猶太裔美國籍的Scarlett Johansson，
但我今天介紹的版本是由歌手 Sam Tsui 和 Youtube上很紅的翻唱歌手Madilyn Bailey 所合唱的，
比起原版歡樂的曲風，改編版有一種悽涼悲壯的感覺。
影片在Youtube上 MV版跟歌詞版更是達到562萬的總點閱率，知名度遠超越原唱的版本。
我們先來欣賞一下這首好聽的歌曲吧~
I can finally see,
It's not just a dream
When you set it all free, all free, all free
You set it all free (oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh)
I was a girl caught under your thumb
But my star's gonna shine brighter than your sun
And I will reach so high,
Shoot so far
Gonna hit, gonna hit, hit every target
Make it count this time
I will make it count this time
This is my kiss goodbye
You can stand alone and watch me fly
'Cause nothing's keeping me down
I'm gonna let it all out
Come on and say right now, right now, right now
This is my big hello
'Cause I'm here and never letting go
I can finally see,
It's not just a dream
When you set it all free, all free, all free
You set it all free (oh oh oh)
Left me blurry, blurry and blind讓我模糊與盲目
Blurry (adj)模糊的、有髒汙的
例句: The blurry picture of the school in the background is the best university in our country.
這張照片裡模糊的背景是我國最好的大學。
I was a girl caught under your thumb我曾經是個被你操控的女孩
我們來看到這個詞組under someone's thumb 注意這裡的b是不發音的哦。
直接翻譯成中文就是在某人的大拇指之下，
也就是形容一個人被控制，聽從另一個人的指揮。
例句: Some people worry that politicians are under the thumb of big business.
有些人擔心政治人物是被大企業所操縱的。
I tried, I tried but the smoke in my eyes
Left me blurry, blurry and blind
I picked all the pieces up off the ground
I've burned all my fingers but that's gone now
Got the glue in my hands I'm stickin' to the plan
Stickin' to the plan that says "I can"
Do anything at all
I can do anything at all
This is my kiss goodbye
You can stand alone and watch me fly
'Cause nothing's keeping me down gonna let it all up
Come on and say right now, right now, right now
Got burned, got broken down by desire就算被欲望燒傷摧毀
Desire (v) (n)強烈的想要、渴望
動詞例句: The president desires to meet the new prime minister.
總統希望與新首相會面。
名詞例句: She had a strong desire to go back to her home country before she died.
她極其渴望在臨死之前回到祖國。
When you set it all free當你讓我們自由
Set free釋放，放...自由
例句: May is going to set her pet birds free. 阿美決定放她的寵物鳥自由。
例句:After asking the man some questions, they set him free. 他們問了那個人幾個問題之後, 把他釋放了。
I can finally see,
It's not just a dream
When you set it all free, all free, all free
You set it all free (oh oh oh)
(oh oh oh)
Madilyn Bailey 是我一直在關注的Youtuber，她獨特的嗓音和慵懶的唱腔讓她在在6年的時間累積了463萬粉絲，
而且憑藉她高超的唱歌技巧和大批粉絲們的支持，
終於在2016年，推出了她的首張個人EP 「Wiser」。
這張專輯是她以個人名義的音樂公司出品的，完完全全是從素人崛起的實力歌手!
之後有機會的話會再多跟大家介紹她所演唱的歌曲啦!
我是主播Althea，我們下期再見，Bye~bye~
