补一首讲述父女之情的歌曲:
5、托丽·阿莫斯(Tori Amos)----《winter》
1987年,托丽·阿莫斯(ToriAmos)她的第一张乐队专辑《Y Kant Tori Read》,但是唱片销量不佳,乐队后来也散伙了。托丽·阿莫斯在农场和父亲一起散步时,向父亲倾诉了她糟糕的心境。父亲告诉她“孩子,什么时候你才能接受你已经足够好了的事实”('Tori Ellen,When are you going to accept you are good enough for you?')
后来,托丽·阿莫斯根据这次谈话,写下了她的第一首经典歌曲《Winter》,歌中表达了女孩对梦想的追寻以及父亲的期许与鼓励。
Lyrics
Winter
Snow can wait, I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose, get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart when I think of winter
I put my hand in my father's glove
I run off where the drifts get deeper
Sleeping Beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice, "You must learn to stand up
For yourself 'cause I can't always be around"
He says, when you gonna make up yourmind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
'Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear
Boys get discovered as winter melts Flowers competing for the sun
Years go by and I'm here still waiting
Withering where some snowman was
Mirror, mirror, where's the crystalpalace?
But I only can see myself
Skating around the truth who I am
But I know, Dad, the ice is getting thin
When you gonna make up your mind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
'Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear
Hair is grey and the fires are burning
So many dreams on the shelf
You say I wanted you to be proud
I always wanted that myself
When you gonna make up your mind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
'Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses have gone ahead
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear
Never change
All the white horses aah-aah
Mmm-mmm
