[歌詞]
I don't want a lot for Christmas
(對於聖誕,我的要求不多)
There's just one thing I need
(只有一件事,是我想要的)
I don't care about presents
(我不在乎禮物)
Underneath the Christmas tree
(不在乎那些堆在聖誕樹下的禮物)
I just want you for my own
(對我而言,我只想要你)
More than you could ever know
(比你知道的還要更多)
Make my wish come true...
(請讓我的夢想成真...)
All I want for Christmas Is you...
(我聖誕節唯一想要的,是你...)
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
(我不必掛上我的襪子)
There upon the fireplace
(掛到壁爐上)
Santa Claus won't make me happy
(耶誕老人也無法令我開心)
With a toy on Christmas day
(無法在耶誕節用個玩具逗樂我)
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you...
You baby
I won't ask for much this Christmas
(今年耶誕我要求的不多)
I won't even wish for snow
(甚至不求下雪)
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
(我只是持續等待著)
Underneath the mistletoe
(等在榭寄生下)
I won't make a list and send it
(我也不列出清單)
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
(寄去北極給聖尼古拉斯)
I won't even stay awake to
(我甚至不會徹夜不眠的)
Hear those magic reindeer click
(等著聽那神奇的馴鹿聲響)
'Cause I just want you here tonight
(因為我只想要今晚你在這裡)
Holding on to me so tight
(將我抱得好緊好緊)
What more can I do
(我還能多做些什麼?)
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
(寶貝,我全心期盼的聖誕就是你)
You...
All the lights are shining
(所有的燈光都在閃耀著)
So brightly everywhere
(到處都如此光亮)
And the sound of children's
(還有孩子們的聲音)
Laughter fills the air
(空氣中充滿笑聲)
And everyone is singing
(而每個人都在歌唱)
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
(我聽見雪橇鈴聲響起)
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need -
(耶誕老人,你不把我真正想要的帶來給我嗎)
won't you please bring my baby to me...
(你不能幫幫忙,把我的寶貝帶到我身邊嗎...)
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
(喔,我的聖誕節不要求什麼)
This is all I'm asking for
(這是我唯一的要求)
I just want to see baby
(我只想要看見我的寶貝)
Standing right outside my door
(他就站在我的門外)
Oh I just want him for my own
(喔,對我來說我只想要他)
More than you could ever know
(遠比你知道的多更多)
Make my wish come true
(讓我的願望成真吧)
Baby all I want for Christmas is You...
(寶貝,我全心期望的聖誕是你啊...)
[小感]
2003年聖誕,有部耶誕應景電影Love Actually
(中譯:愛是您愛是我)
片中以數個溫情故事串起整個電影,
很浪漫也很感人。
電影中,小男孩愛上了性格強烈的美國女生,
這女孩是眾人目光的焦點,
甚至還是樂團主唱,
小男孩卻只是個退縮害羞的普通男生,
所以一直只是暗戀著。
後來他們有機會一起演出,
女孩就是演唱這首All I Want for Christmas is You,
唱到is You的時候,
女孩特地轉身指著他唱,
男孩正暗自狂喜的時候,
女孩又指著其他的每個人,唱is You了。
男孩的表情變化很經典,
我也因此開始留意到這首歌。
這首歌原唱是Mariah Carey,一經發表就大受歡迎,
所以後來也陸續出現翻唱版本。
旋律一開始是緩慢的清唱,
以富有感情的方式吟唱著,
強調不需要禮物或是其他的任何東西,
想要的聖誕節,
就只是和對方共度如此而已。
再來,旋律一變,
立刻變成鼓點明顯,節拍強烈的輕快歌曲,
曲風洋溢著歡樂熱情的氣氛,
好像一起共度的歡樂景象就在眼前展開,
是很有趣的表現方式。
