《Inside Out》無可否認是一套頗有深度的動畫片,但在戲院看畢整套Inside Out 英文版之後,在我腦中深層記憶區不停被送到大腦控制室的不是香口膠歌,而是在播Inside Out 前的一套短篇-《LAVA》,一個短短幾分鐘但絕對是能夠表達出豐富感情的動畫短片。 這短篇雖然簡單來說就是一首歌,但這短片的導演 James Ford Murphy可以令到一首歌表達出歡樂、孤獨、希望、盼望、失望、絕望、驚喜、興奮、欣悅、到最後甜蜜大結局,真的是難得之作。 當時在戲院聽的時候沒有特別留意的話可能只是聽到一個火山的動人愛情故事,但當中聽到歌詞提到"With aloha as their new home",又看到兩座火山,醒起來這應該是個Hawaii Big Island 的故事。Big Island 上的Mauna Loa 是最大的一座火山,而Mauna Kea 就是最高和年青的火山,看完短篇之後就會發現,跟本是說他們! 另外英文版的整首歌詞絕對是值得加讚。 如果有細心聽英文歌詞的話,男火山說是"Will send me someone to LAVA",而上句歌詞有唱出 "I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up ABOVE",其中的ABOVE 他是唱"ABOVA",代表-VE 這個發音會唱成-VA,也就是指LAVA 即 LOVE 的意思,一詞兩用,很有好玩的用法。 而他們用的樂器就正正是Hawaii 尋常樂器 Ukulele,片中雖然沒有提到兩座火山的名字,但實際上男的叫Uku,女的就是Lele,Pixar 更為這短短數分鐘的短片找來兩位Hawaiian 來唱。 如果看中文版的《Inside Out》這首歌應該也是廣東話的,就可能錯失如此完美的一首歌~ 來重溫一下LAVA 一下這首歌吧!~ (原來UBlog 不能embed Youtube 進來,去YouTube 自己聽吧~Lava~) (UBlog 編緝們通知,其實UBlog 可以embed Youtube 片,而且非常簡單XD,教學在這裡) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7mRPjfeJ38 歌詞: (Narrator) A long long time ago there was a volcano Living all alone in the middle of the sea He sat high above his bay watching all the couples play And wishing that he had someone too And from his lava came this song of hope that he sang Out loud everyday for years and years Uku (The lonely Volcano) I have a dream I hope will come true That you're here with me and I'm here with you I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above-a Will send me someone to lava (Narrator) Years of singing all alone turned his lava into stone Until he was on the brink of extinction But little did he know that living in the sea below Another volcano was listening to his song Everyday she heard his tune her lava grew and grew Because she believed his song was meant for her Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea As he sang his song of hope for the last time (Uku) I have a dream I hope will come true That you're here with me and I'm here with you I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above-a Will send me someone to lava (Narrator) Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano Looking all around but she could not see him He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone But with no lava his song was all gone He filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear As she remembered what his song meant to her Lele (Love interest of Uku) I have a dream I hope will come true That you're here with me and I'm here with you I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above-a Will send me someone to lava (Narrator) Oh they were so happy to finally meet above the sea All together now their lava grew and grew No longer are they all alone with aloha as their new home And when you visit them this is what they sing (Uku and Lele) I have a dream I hope will come true That you'll grow old with me and I'll grow old with you We thank the earth, sea, the sky we thank too I lava you I lava you I lava you 全文同步於: http://mattatsimplelife.blogspot.hk/2015/08/inside-out-lava.html
