人間の心の中には生まれつきある音楽が流れていてそれに似た曲を人は好きになるんだとか。「自分の曲」は何だろうといつも考えながら歌詞を和訳しています。
I have heard that every one of us has a special music running deep inside our soul and whatever music we love in our lives has something in common with it. I always translate English lyrics into Japanese, wondering what my music sounds like.
人生で問題が起こった時には必ず助けるからと相手に言うことでこの主人公は相手を慰めようとしています。 The narrator is trying to comfort the second person saying they will be there for them when something bad happens to the second person. If I Ever Leave This World Alive (Flogging Molly)
[Verse 1] If I ever leave this world alive I'll thank ya for the things you did in my life If I ever leave this world alive I'll come back down and sit beside your feet tonight Wherever I am you'll always be More than just a memory If I ever leave this world alive
[Verse 2] If I ever leave this world alive I'll take on all the sadness That I left behind If I ever leave this world alive The madness that you feel will soon subside So in a word, don't shed a tear I'll be here when it all gets weird If I ever leave this world alive
[Bridge] So when in doubt just call my name Just before you go insane If I ever leave this world Hey I may never leave this world But if I ever leave this world alive
[Verse 3] She says I'm okay, I'm alright Though you have gone from my life You said that it would Now everything should be all right
似た話をどこかで聞いた気がします。確か車を運転していたのはなく亀の背中に乗っていたような・・・。 I think I've heard something similar to this story. It's a story of a man who wasn't driving his car but riding on the back of a turtle. Wave of Mutilation (Pixies)
[Verse 1] Cease to resist, givin' my goodbye Drive my car into the ocean You think I'm dead, but I sail away
[Chorus] On a wave of mutilation Wave of mutilation Wave of mutilation Wave, wave
[Verse 2] I've kissed mermaids, rode the El Niño Walked the sand with the crustaceans Could find my way to Mariana

これが多重人格を扱った曲かどうかはわかりませんが,人間というものは誰でもある意味そうと言えるのではないでしょうか?仕事をしている時としていない時人間の見せる顔は違います。 I'm not sure if this song is about the multiple personality but every one of us has it in a way. We behave pretty different when we work and when we don't. Six Different Ways (The Cure)

[Verse 1] A teenage dream's so hard to beat Every time she walks down the street Another girl in the neighbourhood Wish she was mine, she looks so good
[Chorus] I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight Get teenage kicks right through the night

恋するというのはいわばその相手の奴隷になるようなものではないでしょうか?恋する相手すなわち「主人」が大変良くしてくれるかもしれませんがそれでも勝手にそこから逃げるわけにはいきません。 I compare falling in love with someone to making yourself a slave to the other. Your slave owner who you are in love with may be so kind to you but you cannot leave them without their consent. Ever Fallen In Love (The Buzzcocks)
[Verse 1] You spurn my natural emotions You make me feel I'm dirt, and I'm hurt And if I start a commotion I run the risk of losing you, and that's worse

[Refrain] Ever fallen in love with someone? Ever fallen in love, in love with someone Ever fallen in love, in love with someone You shouldn't've fallen in love with?
[Verse 3] You disturb my natural emotions You make me feel I'm dirt, and I'm hurt And if I start a commotion I'll only end up losing you, and that's worse
[Refrain] Ever fallen in love with someone? Ever fallen in love, in love with someone Ever fallen in love, in love with someone You shouldn't've fallen in love with? Ever fallen in love with someone? Ever fallen in love, in love with someone Ever fallen in love, in love with someone You shouldn't've fallen in love with?

ギターの音といい歌詞の内容といいミュージック・ヴィデオといい,この曲のなにもかもが80年代っぽさを醸し出していますが,一体何を伝えようとしているのかは私には不明です。 The guitar, the lyrics and the music video...everything in this song declares it's from '80s. I'm not sure what they're trying to say precisely. Spellbound (Siouxsie and the Banshees)
[Intro] From the cradle bars Comes a beckoning voice It sends you spinning You have no choice
[Verse 1] You hear laughter Cracking through the walls It sends you spinning You have no choice You hear laughter Cracking through the walls It sends you spinning You have no choice

[Verse 2] And don't forget when your elders forget To say their prayers Take them by the legs And throw them down the stairs
When you think your toys Have gone berserk It's an illusion You cannot shirk You hear laughter Cracking through the walls It sends you spinning You have no choice
[Chorus] Following the footsteps Of a rag doll dance We are entranced Spellbound Following the footsteps Of a rag doll dance We are entranced Spellbound Spellbound, spellbound, ooh-ooh Spellbound, spellbound, spellbound, spellbound
[Outro] Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Following the footsteps Of a rag doll dance We are entranced Following the footsteps Of a rag doll dance We are entranced Entranced, entranced Entranced, entranced Entranced, entranced
仮にこの曲のタイトルが「She is my sanctuary(あの子が安らぎの場所)」であったなら特に何も思わなかったと思いますが実際には「She sells sanctuary(あの子は安らぎの場所を売っている)」です。それが金銭であろうとなかろうと,およそ取引というものには必ず代償が伴います。彼女のためにこの主人公の支払う代償は何なのでしょうか? If the song title were something like 'She is my sanctuary', I wouldn't think a lot about it. It is, however, 'She sells sanctuary'. Monetary or not, every business or trade has a price for it. So what's the price the narrator is asked to pay for her? She Sells Sanctuary (The Cult)
[Verse 1] Oh, the heads that turn Make my back burn And those heads that turn Make my back, make my back burn
[Verse 2] The sparkle in your eyes Keeps me alive And the sparkle in your eyes Keeps me alive, keeps me alive

有名になると最初こそ高揚感も感じますし幸せな気分にもなるでしょうか,いずれその状態が当たり前になり場合によっては退屈します。 At first fame gives you lush and makes you happy. Soon or later, however, you will take it for granted and sometimes even get bored with it. Boredom (Buzzcocks)
[Verse 1] Yeah, well, I say what I mean I say what comes to my mind Because I never get around to things I live a straight, straight line
[Chorus] You know me, I'm acting dumb You know the scene, very humdrum Boredom, boredom Boredom
[Verse 2] And now, I'm living in this movie But it doesn't move me And I've been waiting for the phone to ring Hear it ring-a-ring-a-ring, a fucking thing
[Chorus] You know me, I'm acting dumb You know the scene, very humdrum Boredom, boredom Boredom
[Verse 3] You see, there's nothing that's behind me I'm already a has-been, uh Because my future ain't what it was Well, I think I know the words that I mean
[Chorus] You know me, I'm acting dumb You know the scene, very humdrum Boredom, boredom B'dum, b'dum
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4] I'm takin' this extravagant journey Or so it seems to me I just, uh, came from nowhere And I'm going straight back there
[Chorus] You know me, I'm acting dumb, dumb You know the scene, very humdrum Boredom, boredom
[Verse 5] You see, I'm living in this, uh, movie But it doesn't move me So tell me, who are you tryna arouse? Get your hand out of my trousers
[Chorus] You know me, I'm acting dumb-dumb You know the scene, very humdrum, drum Boredom, boredom

Ramonesがこの曲を発表した1980年には曲に登場するアーティストの名前を知っていて覚えていた人も少なからずいたと思われます。 When Ramones released this song in 1980, I think many people knew and remembered those artist names appearing in the song. Do You Rmember Rock 'n' Roll Radio? (Ramones)
[Intro] This is rock and roll radio, come on; let's rock and roll with the Ramones Rock and rock and roll radio, let's go Rock and rock and roll radio, let's go Rock and rock and roll radio, let's go Rock and rock and roll radio, let's go
[Verse] Do you remember Hullabaloo Upbeat, Shindig and Ed Sullivan too? Do you remember rock and roll radio? Do you remember rock and roll radio? Do you remember Murray the K Alan Freed, and high energy? It's the end, the end of the 70's It's the end, the end of the century Do you remember lying in bed With your covers pulled up over your head? Radio playing so no one can see We need change, we need it fast Before rock's just part of the past Because lately it all sounds the same to me Oh oh oh oh, oh oh

思い通りにいかず不満が溜まっている時人に寛容になるのは容易なことではありません。他人に対して過剰に攻撃的になる人がいますが,おそらくその人は最低の気分なのでしょう。 It's not so easy to be tolerate to others when you get frustrated. A person who is overly aggressive to others probably feels miserable. Beat on The Brat (Ramones)
[Chorus] Beat on the brat, beat on the brat Beat on the brat with a baseball bat Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-oh Beat on the brat, beat on the brat Beat on the brat with a baseball bat Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-oh Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-oh

歌詞を見るとポップソングのように思えるかもしれませんが違います。タイトルのRebel Girl(はねっかえり)に相応しい音です。 Taking a look at the lyrics, you may think this song sounds like a pop. No, not at all. It sounds true to the title, Rebel Girl. Rebel Girl (Bikini Kill)
[Verse 1] That girl thinks she's the queen of the neighborhood She's got the hottest trike in town That girl, she holds her head up so high I think I wanna be her best friend, yeah

自分が誰よりも相手のことを大事にできると信じている主人公は,相手に対して,それが難しいとわかっているのにもかかわらず,自分ほど相手を大事にできる人間はいないのだから行くなと繰り返し頼んでいます。 The narrator is repeatedly asking the second person to stay even if they know it's not very likely, believing that no one can love the person better than themselves. Maps (Yeah Yeah Yeahs)

自分にとっては自然で当然のことであっても他人には奇妙でおかしなことに思える場合があります。「己の欲するところを人に施せ(Do unto others as you would have them do unto you)」と聖書は教えていますが,それが必ずしも相手の望むこととは限りません。 Things which seem pretty natural and normal to you could be so strange and weird to others. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," says the Bible but they're not always what they want. Last Nite (The Strokes)
[Verse 1] Last night, she said "Oh, baby, I feel so down Oh, it turn me off When I feel left out" So I, I turned 'round Oh, baby, don't care no more I know this for sure I'm walkin' out that door Well, I've been in town for just 'bout fifteen, oh, minutes now And, baby, I feel so down And I don't know why I keep walkin' for miles

人間の体の中にはものを整理整頓し合理化させる遺伝子のようなものがあるのではないかと思うことがあります。 Sometimes I think there might be genes in our body that make us organize or streamline things. Minority (Green Day)
[Chorus] I wanna be the minority I don't need your authority Down with the moral majority 'Cause I wanna be the minority
[Verse 1] I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog, thereof which I stand alone A face in the crowd unsung against the mold Without a doubt, singled out, the only way I know

そもそも「ひとつの一貫した人間性」などというものがこの世界に存在するのでしょうか?私自身でさえ様々な顔を持っているというのに。 Does such a thing like 'one single coherent personality' exist in this world? I doubt it. I have many faces inside myself. Come As You Are (Nirvana)
[Verse 1] Come as you are, as you were As I want you to be As a friend, as a friend As an old enemy Take your time, hurry up Choice is yours, don't be late Take a rest as a friend As an old memoria

メタル音楽やメタルバンドと聞いてよく人々が連想する胡散臭いイメージとは裏腹に,今まで私が出会って来たメタルファンはひとり残らずちゃんとした人で,どうかすると私のような人間よりも遥かにマシな人たちでした。 Despite many dubious things people often associate with metal bands and the metal music, every single metalhead I've ever known in person was pretty decent person. In fact they're definitely much better than other people like me. Teenage Dirtbag (Wheatus)
[Verse 1] Her name is Noelle I have a dream about her She rings my bell I got gym class in half an hour Oh, how she rocks In Keds and tube socks But she doesn't know who I am And she doesn't give a damn about me
[Chorus] 'Cause I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby Yeah, I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby Listen to Iron Maiden, baby, with me, ooh
[Verse 2] Her boyfriend's a dick And he brings a gun to school And he'd simply kick My ass if he knew the truth He lives on my block And he drives an IROC But he doesn't know who I am And he doesn't give a damn about me
[Chorus] 'Cause I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby Yeah, I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby Listen to Iron Maiden, baby, with me, ooh
[Bridge] Oh, yeah, dirtbag No, she doesn't know what she's missin' Oh, yeah, dirtbag No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
[Verse 3] Man, I feel like mold It's prom night and I am lonely Lo and behold She's walkin' over to me This must be fake My lip starts to shake How does she know who I am? And why does she give a damn about me? I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden, baby Come with me Friday, don't say maybe I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby, like you
[Outro] Oh, yeah, dirtbag No, she doesn't know what she's missin' Oh, yeah, dirtbag No, she doesn't know what she's missin'..
一般的にはこれは女性ではなくヘロインについて歌った曲だと考えられているようです。この曲を書いたPeter Perrettは,この曲は実在の女性をきっかけにしたと言っているものの,ヘロイン説を完全に否定もしていないようです。 Many people believe it's about heroin not a girl that the narrator is talking about here. The writer of the song Peter Perrett declared he was inspired by an actual girl to write the song but didn't deny the theory entirely. Another Girl, Another Planet (The Only Ones)

[Outro] Another girl is loving you now Another planet is holding you down Another planet
人間というものは別れる時に相手に別に好きでもなかったということがよくありますが,そうすることで別れの辛さが少しでも和らぐのでしょうか? People often tell their ex. that they didn't love them a little when they break up. Does that makes it easier for them to get over the breakup? Loved You A Little (The Maine, Taking Back Sunday & Charlotte Sands)
[Intro: Charlotte Sands] If I was just a lie to you Well, you were less than that to me Never loved you a little
[Verse 1: The Maine & Taking Back Sunday] Bit by bit, you built this all in your head And you knew goddamn well Lays like these, they lean miss more than swing And what made you think that what we had was love not meaningless? And if I'm the fool, what's that make you?

あけすけにしろそうでないにしろ,昨今ではどんな見た目が望ましいのかという情報を常にメディアから浴びせられている状況で,まるで知らない誰かから常に「こういう人間になれ」と言われてるようなものです。 Explicitly or not, we're constantly bomberded with information about how we should and shouldn't look by media these days. It's like always being told who you should be by someone you don't know. Victoria's Secret (Jax)
[Verse 1] God I wish somebody would have told me when I was younger That all bodies aren't the same Photoshop, itty bitty models on magazine covers Told me I was overweight I stopped eating, what a bummer Can't have carbs and a hot girl summer If I could go back and tell myself when I was younger I'd say, psst

若い時はこう聞くとやる気がないように思うかもしれません,物事というものは規則に従ってやった方がずっとうまくいくものです。規則通りに行動する方が反発するよりも大抵の場合上手くいきます。 When you're young, you may find it a bit lethargic but things usually work far more easily by following rules. Playing by the rules does better than breaking them most of times. The Safety Dance (Men Without Hats)
[Verse 1] We can dance if we want to We can leave your friends behind 'Cause your friends don't dance And if they don't dance Well they're no friends of mine
[Verse 2] I say, we can go where we want to A place where they'll never find And we can act like we come from out of this world Leave the real one far behind We can dance (Danser!)
[Verse 3] We can go where we want to The night is young and so am I And we can dress real neat From our hats to our feet And surprise 'em with a victory cry
[Verse 4] I say, we can act if we want to If we don't nobody will And you can act real rude And totally removed And I can act like an imbecile
[Chorus] I say, we can dance, we can dance Everything is out of control We can dance, we can dance We're doing it from pole to pole We can dance, we can dance Everybody look at your hands We can dance, we can dance Everybody's taking the chance
Safe to dance Well it's safe to dance Yes, it's safe to dance
[Verse 5] We can dance if we want to We've got all your life and mine As long as we abuse it Never gonna lose it Everything will work out right
[Verse 1] I say, We can dance if we want to We can leave your friends behind 'Cause your friends don't dance And if they don't dance Well they're no friends of mine
[Chorus] I say, we can dance, we can dance Everything is out of control We can dance, we can dance We're doing it from pole to pole We can dance, we can dance Everybody look at your hands We can dance, we can dance Everybody's taking the chance
[Outro] Well, it's safe to dance Yes, it's safe to dance Well, it's safe to dance Well, it's safe to dance Yes it's safe to dance It's safe to dance Well, it's safe to dance It's a safety dance It's a safety dance It's a safety dance It's a safety dance It's a safety dance
