说起来八月还真没什么可看的美剧,趁这机会把battlestar Galactica看了。果然是科幻剧中少有的大作,很有味道,还专门找了四个season的OST来听。不过今天不是讲它,而是另一部新剧:Glee。(其实也不算新啦,5月就有的pilot)

简单说呢,Glee是一部“青春”“励志”“校园”“音乐”剧。嗯,四个关键词里面三个都是我不喜欢的。一帮有天赋有梦想的高中生,在一个爱学生爱音乐的老师带领下,克服重重阻力,将在舞台上散发夺目的光芒:目标,甲子园!哦,错了,错了,目标大概是州冠军吧……总之是很上进的啦。

之所以推荐这部剧,其实只是因为第一集最后的那首歌:Don’t stop believing. 原唱是81年Journey乐队的版本,我听了,不如剧中男女声对唱的演绎。当片中Rachel开唱的时候,我眼泪差点儿流出来,果然是唱百老汇出身。后来觉得我大概是对这一类的女声情有独钟,但究竟是哪一类我也讲不出。看得到youtube的可以直接看这段视频:

另附歌词:

Glee Cast – Don’t Stop Believin’

Just a small town girl, livin’ in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin’ anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin’ anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fill,
everybody wants a thrill
Payin’ anything to roll the dice,
just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night

Don’t stop believin’
Hold on to the feelin’
Streetlight people

Don’t stop believin’
Hold on that feelin’
Streetlight people

Don’t stop
