這首歌一聽到後覺得驚為天人，因為實在很喜歡Charlie Puth的招牌假音，已經很有辨識度了，而且他的歌聲總是能表達出人們心中壓抑的情感。這首歌根據Charlie puth的公開訪談，是在描述他自己和前女友的感情故事，算是非常走心真實帶著悲傷，Charlie puth的情感世界。就讓我們來深入瞭解一下這首歌吧!

 

主歌:

歌曲開頭就被Charlie Puth的美聲假音給吸引，簡捷的撥奏也帶出了歌曲想醞釀的歡快節奏。

Whoa oh oh hm

You've been runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round throwin' that dirt all on my name

你已經到處向人說我的壞話

'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd call you up

因為你知道我會打給你

You've been going 'round, going 'round, going 'round every party in LA

你已經去遍LA的所有派對

'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd be at one, oh

因為你知道我會在其中一家
 

Pre-Chorus:

Pre-Chorus 裡的伴奏和合聲，強調著歌曲的情緒重心。

I know that dress is karma, perfume regret

我知道那件洋裝是在提醒我曾經的因果 讓我因當初為妳著迷的香水對現在感到後悔

You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine, oh

你讓我回想起過去你還是我女人的時候

And now I'm all up on ya, what you expect?

而現在我的目光都在你身上了 你還期望什麼

But you're not coming home with me tonight

但你今晚不會跟我回家

 

Chorus:

很喜歡Chorus帶出的簡單鼓打貝斯伴奏，整首歌開始在往前進，

You just want attention

你知道要我的目光

You don't want my heart

你不要我的心
 

Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new

也許你只是厭惡去想到任何我有新歡的可能
 

Yeah, you just want attention

是的 你只是要我的目光
 

I knew from the start

我從一開始就知道
 

You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you, oh

你只是在確定我永遠不會和你結束
 

主歌:

歌曲延申了鼓打貝斯伴奏進行至此時，相信大家都已經對女主角的動機瞭然於心..

You've been runnin' round, runnin' round, runnin' round throwing that dirt all on my name

你已經到處向人說我的壞話
 

'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd call you up

因為你知道我會打給你

Baby, now that we're, now that we're, now that we're right here standing face to face

寶貝 現在我們正面對面對決

You already know, 'ready know, 'ready know that you won, oh
而你已經知道你贏得勝利

 

 

Pre-chorus:

I know that dress is karma (dress is karma), perfume regret, yeah

我知道那件洋裝是在提醒我曾經的因果 讓我因當初為妳著迷的香水對現在感到後悔

You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine, oh

你讓我回想起過去你還是我女人的時候

(You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine)

 

這一段之所以要把節奏停下，大概是覺得最傷心的事莫過於女人不跟他回家吧…(全曲重點XD)

And now I'm all up on ya (all up on ya), what you expect?
而現在我的目光都在你身上了 你還期望什麼

(Oh, baby)
But you're not coming home with me tonight, oh no
但你今晚不會跟我回家

 

Chorus:
You just want attention
You don't want my heart
Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new, someone new
Yeah, you just want attention, oh
I knew from the start, the start
You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you, over you, oh
 

Bridge:

不得不配服Charlie真的是一個假音高手….而且都是很高音的那種..

What are you doin' to me?

你要對我做什麼
What are you doin', huh? (What are you doin'?)
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', huh? (What are you doin'?)
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', huh? (What are you doin'?)
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', huh?
 

回歸到簡單的撥奏，並在結尾留一段空白和一聲嘆氣(因為女人不跟他回家)醞釀下一段副歌的高潮。

這邊他唱”When you were mine”的那個哽咽的假音真的是畫龍點睛。(也很難唱的吧XD你可以試試!)

 

Pre-Chorus:
I know that dress is karma, perfume regret
You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine
And now I'm all up on ya, what you expect?
But you're not coming home with me tonight

 

最後的副歌和結尾配合音樂和和聲表達出對這女人無法抵抗的複雜情緒和慾望，真的徹底的敗在這女人手上了…..

 

Chorus:
You just want attention
You don't want my heart
Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new
Yeah, you just want attention
I knew from the start
You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you, over you
 

Outro:
What are you doin' to me? (hey)
What are you doin', huh? (what are you doin', what?)
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', huh? (yeah, you just want attention)
What are you doin' to me? (I knew from the start)
What are you doin', huh?
(You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you)
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', huh?

 

結論: 難以駕馭自己的慾望，就會被自己的慾望給駕馭….戒之慎之阿! XD 感謝Charlie Puth帶給我們這樣寶貴的一課….
