《完美的一天结束时》专辑歌词翻译

《 At The End Of A Perfect Day 完美的一天结束时》歌词翻译

Chris de Burgh（个人介绍）发行于1977年的第三张专辑，风格与上张大作有显著改变。词作方面，不同于上张《西班牙火车及其他故事》般锐利的叙事长篇，代之以清新的小诗，但动人处时有显现，如《A Rainy Night In Paris 巴黎的雨夜》幽怨的氛围似是经典默片的某些场景；《I WILL 我会》的主角对孤岛生活的向往让人联想起毛姆小说的情节；《Discovery 探索》从哥伦布航海放眼至人类的太空之旅，以起伏汹涌的音乐篇章，讴歌壮丽的探索历程；《 A Country Churchyard (Let Your Love Shine On) 在一个乡村教堂庭院（让你的爱闪耀）》是表达岁月沧桑、物是人非的黯然伤神之歌。为配合词曲的意境，配乐不再是前两张浓墨重彩的艺术摇滚风格，向轻盈简洁转变。
