流於指間的深沉，轉化成我的文字(Music-Licious)

wow！！這個太讚了，看預告片段的時候就很期待了
沒想到結果真的不負我的期待～太讚了！
甫在MTV電影大獎做開場表演的Fun.，也首映了他們最新一波單曲Some Nights的MV

時光拉到1861年的美國，時值南北戰爭爆發，
為了利益而戰，家家戶戶的男兒們離開了他們的愛人、母親，
畫面開始沒多久，主唱Nate Ruess對著軍人以歌詞喊話：
But I still wake up/I still see your ghost/Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh/What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
以大鼓聲激昂的拉開戰曲的序幕，
導演Anthony Mandler將歌曲本身和影像做了一個幾乎完美的結合
絢麗的槍火、激昂的戰鼓、戰士的鬥志、自由的解放，
但是總免不了最後難免的生離死別，家鄉的兒女的淚水。
就像歌詞中，What do I stand for? What do I stand for?一直在耳邊響起。

對我來說這MV真的是太棒了，應該是最近看過最讚的一支吧。
歌詞只先放英文版的在文末吧，有空再翻譯囉(其實網路上有看到，翻得還不錯)



原文歌詞請按繼續閱讀：

Some nights, I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights, I call it a draw
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore...
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh

This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype - save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked, but here they come again to jack my style

And that's alright; I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh, who am I? Oh, who am I? mmm... mmm...

Well, Some nights, I wish that this all would end
Cause I could use some friends for a change
And some nights, I'm scared you'll forget me again
Some nights, I always win, I always win...

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know... (come on)

So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?

No. When I see stars, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like a swan, so come on
Oh, come on. Oh, come on, OH COME ON!

That is it, guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This is not one for the folks at home; I'm sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Who the fuck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?

My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she called "love"
But when I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible nights...ahhh...

Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh

The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
