很喜歡 Alec 的歌詞和嗓音
歌詞的意境總能讓我深陷其中
最初是從 let me dowm slowly 認識他
這首歌 也推出了和葛萊美新人 Alessia Cara 合作的版本 (點我點我)
這次的 Jesus in LA 是 let me down slowly 後巴波最喜歡的歌曲
在這邊推薦給大家啦
Alec Benjamin - Jesus in LA
Well, I shook hands with the devil
我和惡魔握手交好
Down on the south side
面向這城市的南方
And he bought us both a drink
他買了酒給我們
With a pat and a pencil sat by his side
拍拍他身旁擺了枝筆的空位
I said "Tell me what you think"
我說「告訴我你在想什麼吧」
I've been looking for my savior, looking for my truth
我一直在尋找我的救世主 尋找著真理
I even asked my shrink
甚至詢問我的精神科醫師
He brought me down to his level, said
他把我帶到他思考的角度 並說道
"Son, you're not special, you won't find him where you think"
「孩子，你並沒有比較特別，他不會在任何你所想的地方」
You won't find him down on sunset
你不會在太陽西下時找到他
Or at a party in the hills
不論是在山坡上一個接一個的派對
At the bottom of the bottle
在你人生最失志的時候
Or when you're tripping on some pills
或是嗑藥後精神渙散的當下
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
在16歲時 大人們給你灌輸了夢想
Packed a bag and ran away
使你收拾行囊遠走高飛
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
一路走來對你來說是奇恥大辱
'Cause you won't find Jesus in L.A
因為你不可能在洛杉磯找到耶穌
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
這過程實在太不像話
'Cause you won't find Jesus in L.A
因為這根本是天方夜譚
Took a sip of his whiskey
他喝了口威士忌
Said "Now that you're with me, well I think that you should stay"
說著「現在我們在彼此身旁 我覺得你應該要留下」
Yeah, I know you've been busy
是阿 我知道你的生活很忙
Searching through the city
在城市裡到處找尋
So let me share the way
所以現在換我分享我的看法吧
I know I'm not your savior
我很清楚我不是你的救世主
No, I'm not your truth
也不是你一直找尋的真理
But I think we could be friends
但我想我們能當個朋友
He said
他說
"Come down to my level, hang out with the devil
Let me tell you, in the end..."
「來我身邊吧，和惡魔一起玩樂，讓我告訴你最後的結局」
You won't find him down on sunset
你不會在太陽西下時找到他
Or at a party in the hills
不論是在山坡上一個接一個的派對
At the bottom of the bottle

因為這根本是天方夜譚
And that is when I knew that it was time to go home
我知道現在是時候回家了
And that is when I realized that I was alone
當我意識到自己一直是獨自一人時
And all the vibrant colors from the lights fade away
所有鮮豔的色彩隨著燈光逐漸黯淡
And I don't care what they say
我根本不在乎他們說了什麼
You won't find him down on sunset
你不會在太陽西下時找到他
Or at a party in the hills
不論是在山坡上一個接一個的派對
