If We Ever Meet Again

If We Ever Meet Again

If We Ever Meet Again是美國說唱歌手Timberland第三章錄音室專輯《Shock Value II》中的第四首主打單曲。同時也收錄在美國流行女歌手凱蒂·佩里(Katy Perry)在2010年8月24日發行的專輯《Teenage Dream》豪華版附加Bonus CD 《Dream On》中。

歌曲背景

Timberland在MTV的訪問中提到,這首歌的靈感來源是Will.I.Am為黑眼豆豆製作的歌曲《I Gotta Feeling》,讓他希望做出一首讓人感覺很好很快樂的歌。另外在談到這首歌中他選擇唱而不是說唱時,他回答:“這不是什麼了不起的唱法,但對我來說可以接受而且也適合我的聲音。如果讓別人來唱這首歌,聽起來就太過了。”歌曲的最後,Timberland的弟弟Sebastian負責了一小段說唱部分。

MV信息

MV拍攝於2009年十二月,導演是執導過《Morning After Dark》和《Say Something》的Paul "Coy" Allen,2010年1月18日首播。與Timberland之前在MTV採訪提到過的“嚴肅的”和“守護天使”的概念不同,這個MV講述的是一個珠寶大盜(Julian Graham飾)和一個藝術品大盜(Nadine Heimann飾)的愛情故事。MV充滿劇情感,Katy和Timberland的演唱穿插其中。

歌詞內容

What's somebody like you, doin in a place like this?
Say, did you come alone, or did you bring all your friends?
Say, what's your name, what you drinking
I think I know what you're thinking
Baby what's your sign, tell me yours I'll tell you mine
Say, what's somebody like you doing in a place like this?
(1, 2, 3, 4)
CHORUS:
I'll never be the same - if we ever meet again
Won't let you get away - said if we ever meet again
This free fall's, got me so
Kiss me all night don't ever let me go
I'll never be the same
If we ever meet again
Say if we ever meet again
Do you come here much? I swear I've seen your face before (before, yeah)
Hope you don't see me blush, but I can't help but want you more, more
Baby tell me what's your story
I ain't shy, don't you worry
I'm flirtin with my eyes, wanna leave with you tonight
So do you come here much, I gotta see your face some more, some more
Cuz baby
I'll never be the same - if we ever meet again
Won't let you get away - said if we ever meet again
This free fall's, got me so
Kiss me all night don't ever let me go
I'll never be the same
If we ever meet again
If we ever meet again
I'll have so much more to say (if we ever meet again)
If we ever meet again
I won't let you go away (said if we ever meet again)
If we ever ever meet again
I'll have so much more to say (say if we ever meet again)
If we ever ever meet again
I won't let you go away
I'll never be the same - if we ever meet again
Won't let you get away - said if we ever meet again
This free fall's, got me so
Kiss me all night don't ever let me go
I'll never be the same
If we ever meet again
I'll never be the same - if we ever meet again
Won't let you get away - said if we ever meet again
This free fall's, got me so
Kiss me all night, don't ever let me go
I'll never be the same
If we ever meet again

樂曲賞析

美國新晉超人氣歌手凱蒂·佩里全新錄音室大碟《Teenage Dream》2010年8月24日北美首播,而歌曲與以往一樣總是洋溢著濃濃的青春氣息,在舞台的造型也多是搖滾風格,精妙的減齡裝扮。

這次新專輯《Teenage Dream》沒有人能否定是一張成功的專輯,新專依然保持了凱蒂·佩里多樣性的風格,而製作團隊更是邀請了儘可能能合作的大腕們:Tricky Stewart、Dr. Luke、Rivers Cuomo和 Max Martin ,四位當今樂壇流行音樂製作人的重新組合,確保了《Teenage Dream》能與蕾哈娜、Lady Gaga 和碧昂斯以及所有製作各種各樣的歌曲的明星們競爭。就上張專輯而言,《Teenage Dream》比上一張專拍節再快一點,更能感受到凱蒂·佩里現場舞蹈的活力,仿佛在歌曲的背後看到能與凱蒂夾在舞伴們中間手舞足蹈,我們弄不清楚身上的汗水是你自己的還是你身旁的人的。”
