Ah one, two, three.
When was that summer when the skies were blue,
Когда же это было – лето, синее небо,
The bright red cardinal flew down from his tree,
Ярко-красная птица кардинал слетает со своего дерева,
You tell me.
Ты скажи мне.
When was that summer when it never rained,
Когда же это было – лето без единого дождя,
The air was buzzing with the sweet old honey bee,
Воздух гудит вместе со сладкозвучной старой медоносной пчелой,
Let's see, you tell me.
Давай узнаем, ты скажи мне.
Were we there, was it real?
Мы там были, это было в действительности?
Is it truly how I feel?
Это на самом деле то, что я чувствую?
Maybe, you tell me.
Возможно, ты скажи мне.
Were we there, is it true?
Мы там были, это правда?
Was I really there with you?
Я действительно был там вместе с тобой?
Let's see, you tell me.
Давай узнаем, ты скажи мне.
When was that summer of a dozen words,
Когда же это было – лето, дюжина слов,
The butterflies and humming birds flew free,
Бабочки и колибри свободно летают,
Let's see, you tell me.
Давай узнаем, ты скажи мне.
Let's see, you tell me.
«Я начал писать эту песню, вспоминая о лете. «Мы там были, это правда?». Иногда для большинства людей воспоминания, особенно детские воспоминания, выглядят такими золотыми, что ты начинаешь думать: «Правда ли в те времена летом никогда не лил дождь или я лишь воображаю эти солнечные моменты?». Вот так эта фраза, «Ты скажи мне», и стала темой песни. Я написал её, находясь на Лонг-Айленде во время как раз такого лета. Я часто наблюдал за красным кардиналом (это такая яркая ярко-красная птица, которая встречается в тех местах). Для многих англичан это подобно волшебству - увидеть ярко-красную птицу, перелетающую с ветки на ветку. Эта песня стала посвящением тем золотым летним денькам».
«‘You Tell Me’ - возможно, самая грустная песня из всех, когда-либо им написанных», - говорит Дэйвид Кан. Этот, в основном, акустический трек открывается проигрываемым назад и вперёд органом, в то время как Лабориэл исполняет отбивку на ударных, перемежающуюся с несколькими сэмплами. Вокал Маккартни был записан с одного захода и дополнен прекрасными голосами участников группы. Проигрываемый назад и вперёд орган, использованный для создания настроения, следует сразу после тихого отсчёта Маккартни. «Я был по-настоящему счастлив, когда он позволил мне включить этот отсчёт. Это символ». Ah one, two, three.
When was that summer when the skies were blue,
When was it - summer, blue sky,
The bright red cardinal flew down from his tree,
The bright red bird the cardinal flies from its tree,
You tell me.
You tell me.
When was that summer when it never rained,
When it was - summer without a single rain,
The air was buzzing with the sweet old honey bee,
The air buzzes with the sweet-sounding old honey bee
Let's see, you tell me.
Let's find out, tell me.
Were we there, was it real?
We were there, was it really?
Is it truly how I feel?
Is this really what I feel?
Maybe, you tell me.
Perhaps you tell me.
Were we there, is it true?
We were there, is that true?
Was I really there with you?
Was I really there with you?
Let's see, you tell me.
Let's find out, tell me.
When was that summer of a dozen words,
When it was - summer, a dozen words,
The butterflies and humming birds flew free,
Butterflies and hummingbirds fly freely
Let's see, you tell me.
Let's find out, tell me.
Let's see, you tell me.
“I started writing this song, remembering the summer. "We were there, is that true?" Sometimes for most people, memories, especially childhood memories, look so golden that you start to think: “Was it really true that in the summer it never rained in the summer, or do I just imagine these sunny moments?” So this phrase, “You tell me,” became the theme of the song. I wrote it while on Long Island during just such a summer. I often watched the red cardinal (this is such a bright bright red bird that is found in those places). For many English, it’s like magic to see a bright red bird flying from branch to branch. This song became a dedication to those golden summer days. ”
“‘ You Tell Me ’is probably the saddest song he ever wrote,” says David Kahn. This mostly acoustic track opens with an organ playing back and forth while Laboriel plays a drum beat, alternating with a few samples. McCartney's vocals were recorded at one go and complemented by the beautiful voices of the band. The organ played back and forth, used to create mood, follows immediately after McCartney’s quiet countdown. “I was really happy when he let me turn on this countdown. This is a symbol. ” Смотрите также: | |
