如果我认为The Libertines是我、Carl、Gary和John
If I think of The Libertines as being me, Carl, Gary and John,
以及我们魔法般的最佳组合
and that being the ultimate combination of magic,
那我就完蛋了 你知道吗
then I’m fucked, you know?
对我而言 我只能认为这是我人生中
For me, I can only think of it as one of
罕有的能够充分、完美表达自我的
the very few opportunities I’ve had in my life
几次机会之一
to, pretty much, perfectly express myself.
人们会说 放下你们的分歧
People say, “Put aside your differences.”
但这分歧正是我们的关系
Our differences are our relationship.
你不可能把它放下
You can’t really put that aside.
我无比苦涩地想念着他
I miss him bitterly,
但是 那就是我们关系的本质
but, such is the nature of both of our relationships,
我不是每次都能在我需要Pete时找到他
I can’t choose when I’m going to get Pete where I need.
2004年6月7日，The Libertines， 英国最具有争议性与影响力的乐队之一， 最后一次出现在舞台上。
紧随其后的是长达6年的别离、非难、 流言蜚语和崭新的开始。
2010年， Peter Doherty，Carl Barat，John Hassall 和 Gary Powell 决定再次一起演出。
*Matchbox - Carl Perkins (Performed by John)
- 太糟糕了 John
- It’s terrible, John.
- 听就是了
- Just hear it.
人们会问
People might say,
“未来会有另一张新专辑吗？”
“Is there another record in the offing?”
这很正常 我们考虑到这一点了
But that’s normal. We expect that.
这很正常
That’s Normal.
我们想要那样
We want that.
我们现在只是想要大致紧扣主题
We just roughly want to stick on the subjects.
然后我们现在非常开心，我们很开心
And so I’m very happy, we’re happy.
我们对乐队的所有成员所说的是
What we’ve said to all members of the band, is that
如果他们在此之后仍然想要做自己的事
if they want to do things individually afterwards,
他们可以随意去做
then they’re free to do it.
但如果他们不想 那他们也不必勉强自己
But if they don’t want to, they don’t have to.
我想这是他在用一种不成熟的方式来展示他的爱
It’s just an immature way of showing his love, I thought,
或者也可能是他不喜欢我的手机
or maybe he doesn’t like my phone.
又来了 哇 看看那个
There it is again! Wow, look at that.
- 那位先生举起了他的手。
- There’s a gentleman down there with his hand up.
- 或许你想要站起来向我们提问？
- Do you want to stand up, maybe, and give us a loud question?
- Melvin Benn说他们花了很大的功夫
- Melvin Benn said there’d been a lot of hard work
- 才把你们重新聚在一个房间里。
- to get you all back into the same room together.
- 那他妈的就是一个噩梦，他住在丹麦。
- It’s a fucking nightmare. He lives in Denmark,
- 而他从不接电话。
- He never answers his phone.
- 站在舞台上说：“我们是The Libertines”，
- Get on stage and say, “We’re The Libertines,”
- 然后这一切都是真实的，是认真的？
- and it be real, and mean it?
- 以两根弯曲的手指
- With two crooked fingers,
- 这一切令人心碎。
- heartrending.
- 我们总能做到通过音乐来与彼此交流。
- We’ve always communicated with each other successfully through music.
- 那就是我们在一起的方式和理由。
- That’s how and why we’re together.
- 以及……抱歉。
- And… Sorry.
- 干杯！敬我们所有人。
- Cheers! To all of us.
- 你不想来点儿吗？
- You didn’t want any?
*I'm Henery the Eighth, I Am - Harry Champion
片源/翻译/打轴/压制 你日
校对：你日 斐世 zzzzhzjy 寥若晨星
润色：苦苦
浪子乐队
没有无辜的旁观者
我非常紧张 但是我知道我们要做的事很简单
It’s nerve-racking, but then I knew that what we had to do was easy,
因为我们要做的已经深入了我的骨髓
because what we had to do was ingrained in my body,
排练的第一天
而且那就是我们从前做过很多次的 是我一定要去做的事
and this is what we’d done so much before, what I was meant to do.
它触手可得 我非常激动
It was all there. I was excited.
- 它叫……
- It’s called…
- Smithy’s
- Smithy’s.
- Smithy’s
- Smithy’s.
- 告诉他一直走到Leeke街
- Tell him it’s the next street up, Leeke Street.
- 从Field街一直走到下一条街
- And it’s the next street up from Field Street.
我想念这些男孩们 我想念他们所有人 真的
I missed the boys, I missed all the boys, really.
我特别想念Pete
I missed Pete dearly,
我无比期待着我们之间的关系
and I look forward to that relationship,
只存在于从前的我们之间的那种关系
which can only exist with us in that situation.
如果我们四个人不能逐步推进 做好这些演出……
If we don’t, all four of us, pace ourselves, throughout these gigs…
- 对，我同意
- Yeah, I agree.
- ……我是说，这些演出会让人疯狂的。
- …I mean, it’s going to be mental.
昨晚 我们又回到了以前那种状态中了
Last night, we got back in that loop.
实际上 我已经好几年没见到乐队里的其他人了
I hadn’t actually seen the guys in the band for quite a few years.
大概两到三年
Probably two or three years.
更别提和他们一起演出了
Let alone played music with them.
- 不。
- No.
- 一切都还好吗？
- Everything all right, there?
- 很好，一切都很顺利。
- Yeah, everything’s cool.
- Gary，你看上去有点不舒服
- Looking a little bit rough there, Gary.
- 我只是觉得有点累了
- I’m just feeling a little tired.
我很高兴能看见Pete、Carl和John
I was happier to see Pete, Carl and John,
仅仅是看见他们 我就已经蠢蠢欲动
just to see them, then I was at that point in time
等不及要和他们一起演出了
to be considering performing shows.
如果我能选择继续演出 为什么不呢
If it’s an option, why not?
- 你真敢啊 - 好了好了
- How dare you. - Well, well.
*Bucket Shop - The Libertines
你怎么样 还好吗
How you doing? All right?
挺好的
Yeah.
美元 美元的钞票……美元 美元钞票
Dollar, dollar bill… Dollar, dollar bill, y’all.
我每张花了四英镑……
I bought them four quid each, and…
他一直都很擅长计算
He’s always been good with numbers.
这是最有纪念意义的时刻
The most momentous occasion,
Carl给我们买了一轮酒
Carl bought a round of drinks.
是我买的
I bought these.
听好了 我告诉过你 如果我已经告诉过你了
Listen, I’ve told you once, if I’ve told you…
你看不出来是我吗 你个笨蛋
Didn’t you see it was me, you fool?
对不起 我什么也听不见
Sorry, I can’t hear anything.
不 是我啊
No, it was me.
谁啊
Who is it?
老天啊 是我啊
Jesus, man, it’s me.
那个好人 我就知道你是那个好人
The cool one. I knew you were the cool one.
久别重逢时
We both get equally nervous
我们都一样紧张
when we see each other after a long period of time.
Pete一般会说一些不那么幽默的话
Pete will normally say something that’s vaguely humorous,
那些话里面往往暗藏尖刺
but usually just disguising some kink of barbed nastiness.
我想我本该随便说点什么 泼泼他冷水
I guess I’ll try and say something that dampens it,
但我还是忍不住稍稍回了嘴
but then I can’t help myself but reciprocate a little bit, as well.
然后 等我们都放下了我们恼人的自我防御时
And then, as soon as we sort of temper
好吧 我猜我们又回到当初了
the defensive nastiness out of it, then, yeah, I guess we’re back.
真是一段有趣的关系
It’s a funny relationship.
我还能说些什么呢
What can I say?
我们第一次见面时 我在布鲁纳尔大学上学
We first met when I was at Brunel.
我并不怎么学习
I didn’t do a great deal of studying,
我是他的姐姐Amy Jo 最好的朋友
and I was best friends with his sister, Amy Jo.
她有个弟弟 在他家乡的小镇中也小有名气
She had this brother who had a bit of a face
是个有远大抱负的诗人
back home in this small town,
但是并不会弹吉他
a sort of aspiring poet with no guitar.
我当时并不认识有谁真的很擅长弹吉他
I didn’t really know anyone that was actually any good at guitar.
当时的每个人都把他们的头发剪得像Liam Gallagher
Everyone just grew their hair like Liam Gallagher
每个人都在组乐队
and started bands, but no one could actually do anything
但是没人做出些什么真正有趣的东西
that was particularly interesting.
然后我遇到了Carl 他在吉他上很有天赋
And then when I met Carl, he was actually gifted on the guitar.
我过去就坐在他的脚边 渴望着知识
I literally used to sit at his feet and I was hungry for knowledge,
我想要知道他是怎么弹吉他的
I wanted to know how he did it.
Doherty有着描绘他人的特殊才能
Doherty’s got a special gift for painting people
他为他人打上一种特别美丽、但又稍稍有些过于浪漫化、夸张的光芒
in a very beautiful, but slightly over-romanticizing, exaggerated light.
Pete称我是一位从资产阶级自学成才的工人阶级
Pete summed me up as a self-educated working class from the estates.
这一点 你知道 确实有他的道理
Which, you know, it’s a bit true in its own way,
但很少有人能够真正地将这些东西整合在一起
but not many people would really string those things together
用它来描述一个人
and use that to represent the person.
所以我认为这一点非常迷人
So I found that quite charming.
他曾问过我能不能去学一下《This Charming Man》的吉他部分
He’d asked if I could learn the guitar part for This Charming Man,
然后当他来拜访时能教给他
and I would teach him when he came up to visit.
我当时根本不知道The Smiths是什么
And I didn’t know anything about The Smiths,
所以很自然地 我去扒了Blur的《Charmless Man》
so naturally I went and worked out Charmless Man by Blur.
- 好了，朋友。你还好吗？
- All right, man. You all right?
他开始唱
He started going,
我在一间人潮拥挤的房间中遇到他……
I met him in a crowed room…
然后我就 “我的天啊，这个家伙居然都没听过The Smiths.”
And I was like, “My God, this bloke hasn’t even heard The Smiths.”
他没听过The Smiths 他也没听过Suede
He hadn’t heard The Smiths, and he hadn’t heard of Suede.
但是即便是这一点 他也深深地吸引着我
But even that, really, quite attracted me to him as well,
因为他就像是…… 我是说 他究竟是什么人物
because he was just this, like… I mean, who is he?
真正会让我觉得紧张的事 是把吉他弹错了
What I was nervous about was actually playing the songs wrong,
因为Pete实际上是乐队里的监督者
because Pete was actually the taskmaster in the band.
他就像是Miles Davis那样的角色……
He was like the Miles Davis character…
或者James Brown之类的
Or James Brown or whoever it is,
他会为这种事生气
who got angry about that sort of things.
他不喜欢弄砸了的声音
He wasn’t happy about bum notes.
*Horror Show - The Libertines
发生什么了
What’s happened there?
你弹错了和弦
Well you were playing the wrong chord.
这个和弦应该是怎样的
What’s the chord?
颠倒过来
The other way around.
我们来试试
Let’s try it.
也需要花上一段时间 好吧 开始
Might take a while. Okay, go!
Holloway路489号
489 Holloway Road.
这里以前是一家妓院 我们就住在这儿
Yeah, it used to be a brothel that we used to live in.
他们已经把这儿"打扫"得干净一些了
They’ve cleaned it up a bit.
对我而言 这儿一直是罪恶的温床
To me, it will always be a hotbed of iniquity.
人们以前过会来使用那边的电话亭
People used to come and they used to phone up that phone box over there,
他们会从窗口往外看 以确保他们的安全
and then they could look out the window to make sure they were safe.
然后他们会走过来 我和Pete以前坐在这儿
And then they’d come over, and me and Pete used to have to sit in there
就坐在卧室里 粗鲁又大声地聊天
just sit in the bedroom, and talk really gruff and loud.
“怎么样啊，伙计” “你完蛋了！” “是他先开始的。”
“All right, mate?” “You’re fucked!” “He stared it.”
我们以前还有这种塑料玩具枪
And we used to have this pathetic pop gun.
以防万一发生了什么情况 我们可以出去然后……
If it ever came to it, we’d get out and…
但是从来没派上用场
But it never came to it.
就这样了
There you go.
我以前睡在……
I used to sleep in a…
最顶层的那间小小的卧室
The little bedroom at the top,
就是中间的那个窗户里 我以前会睡在一个黑色的大铁笼里
in the middle window, I used to sleep in a big, black iron cage.
生活确实变好了
Things did get better.
很有趣的是
It’s funny, ‘cause so totally surrounded by everything
我们曾经完全被音乐产业环绕着
to do with the music industry,
但我们丝毫没有发觉
we didn’t know anything about it.
就比如说 我们楼下住着《NME》的记者和摄影师
Apparently, like, we had NME journalist downstairs,
隔壁门还有个Metropolis的录音室
and a photographer, and Metropolis next door,
但是我真的一点儿也不知道这些
but I didn’t know what any of that meant, really.
我们唯一知道的就是这些来来往往的皮肉买卖
All we knew about was the comings and goings of the brothel trade.
总有一件事的发生会彻底改变一切
It was always a certain thing would happen that would change everything.
就像我以前在铁丝网后生活了那么多年
Like I spent so many years behind barbed wire,
*Peter的父亲是一位英国军队的军官，因此他的少年时期跟随家庭辗转居住于多个卫戍区，且有着天主教的家庭教养。
被严格看管着
and, you know, literally regimented,
所以当我得到一个转瞬即逝的机会
that when I’d get a fleeting chance
仅仅是体验到自由 体验到做我自己
to experience just liberty, just being able to be myself,
我能在我想要的时间前往我想去的地方
and go where I wanted, when I wanted…
我记得有一天我直接在课堂上站了起来
I think I just stood up one day in class,
径直走出了教室 我就一直这么走没停下
and walked out of the class, and I just keep walking.
我们的整个人生就像是某种
Our whole life is a sort of romantic tapestry
The Albion Rooms的地下室中浪漫复杂的壁毯
in the basement of The Albion Rooms.
只有我们和我们波西米亚之梦的小小岛屿
Just us and our little island of bohemian dreams.
在挖掘到最后 我们发现了伦敦的另一面
And we dug deeper in the end, and we just found this other London
它充斥着邪恶、毒窟、公园和流浪汉……
of vice and dope dens and parks and tramps…
我们都急切地想要逃离
We both were really desperate to get out of the only England
我们所拥有的唯一的英格兰
we’d ever been presented with.
你知道吗？
You know?
我们总是会吵架
We’d always fall out quite a lot.
总是因为一些鸡毛蒜皮的小事
It was usually sort of bicker stuff.
没错 我以前脾气确实挺差的
Yeah, I’ve been quite cantankerous.
记得有一次我们吵疯了
It reached fever pitch
那次他正喝着一大瓶矿泉水
when he was drinking a massive bottle of mineral water.
那时候我觉得他特别特别娘娘腔
At the time, I found that very poncey that he’d like mineral water,
喜欢喝矿泉水 还是他爸妈从德国带给他的
but his parents had brought it from Germany.
他喝着水 挑着我的刺 靠在厨台上
But he was drinking it, slagging me off, leaning against a cooker,
我记得我把他嘴上的矿泉水踢飞了
and I remember I kicked it out of his mouth.
当时他又生气又伤心
And that’s when he got really angry and upset,
然后他就报了警
and he phoned the police.
警察们来了后
And then the police came round,
他们问 “发生什么了？”
and they said, “All right, what’s going on here?”
我们就这样 “我才不说。”
And then we were like, “Well, I’m not talking.”
“我也不说。”
And then, “Well, I’m not talking to you either.”
然后他们问 “所以，你是做什么的？”
And then they went, “So, what do you do?”
我说 “我是个演员。”
And I went, “I’m an actor.”
然后他们问Peter “那你是做什么的？”
And then they went to Peter, “What do you do?”
“我是个诗人！”
“I’m a poet!”
看看这个 我这边有
Check this out, I’ve got…
等一下 就在这儿
Hang on, right here.
你有啥 橡皮这类的小玩意吗
You got anything, like a rubber?
没错 就在那个钱包里 继续
Yeah, in that purse. Go on.
我母亲的钱包里有很多零钱
Lot of change in my mother’s purse.
给每个人的礼物
Presents for everybody.
我根本就不相信那些白日梦 为什么不呢？
I don’t even believe the dreams. And why not?
我认为所有这些老套的东西和陈词滥调
You know, I think all sorts of stereotypes and cliche
都来自现实之中 我们希望找到这一切的源头
is come from reality which I think we were looking to
而且它们终会成真
sort of source, and they’ll come true.
从那个精选加油站拿到的
Get that from selected petrol stations.
所以这是为了The Forum的吗 在The Forum要用它
So, is it for the Forum? Use it at the Forum.
*本次重组的第一场演出是在The Forum
你喜欢它吗
Do you like it?
谢谢了
Thanks, man.
我记得我们第一次演奏歌曲的那个晚上
I remember the night when we first played songs together,
我记得我们在Mortlake火车站
I think we were at Mortlake train station,
那是我第一次真的要表演些什么
and the first time I’d ever really played anything,
我给他表演了我写的歌
I played him the song I had written,
后来那首歌变成了《The Domestic》
which later became a song called The Domestic.
我原来的歌词是 “约翰列侬今天附体于我身”
Yeah, my original lyrics were, “John Lennon came down to me today,”
事后一想 这句歌词实在是太好笑了
which is fucking laughable, really, in hindsight.
然后Pete十分有技巧地把它换成了别的
And Pete, very tacktfully, presented something else.
*Begging - The Libertines
好耶
Yeah!
酷
Yeah, cool.
他读了很多的书
The things that he was reading about in books
也尝试了很多的事物
and dipping his toes in water,
但是却无法尽情表达自己
but not really expressing himself.
这听起来有一点蠢 但只是 你知道的 诗歌
It sounds a bit daft, but just, you know, poetry.
诗歌是灵魂的流露
And poetry being an expression of the soul
但诗歌不仅仅是能在纸面上把灵魂表露出来 你知道吗
and it not just being on the page, you know?
诗歌能让你在人生和梦想里 都表露你的灵魂
As in living your life, following dream.
我想在和他一起的时候 我从Pete身上学到了很多关于歌词
I think I learnt a lot from Pete about lyrics
写歌和诸如此类的一些事
and song writing and whatnot, on the way,
正如他和我在一起时学会了怎么弹吉他一样
as he did with me and playing the guitar, I suppose.
我认为我再也找不到一个和Peter一样特别的创作伙伴了
I don’t think I’ll ever have a songwriting partner as special as Peter.
我不认为我能再找到那样的化学反应
And I doubt I’ll have that chemistry again.
你的一生只能拥有一次那样的关系
You don’t tend to find that twice in your lifetime.
当他的灵感一次性爆发出来时
When a strong idea comes out of him in one go,
我通常只能在其上加上一行
I’m normally left just adding literally one line.
就像是 随便抛出一些胡话之类的
Like, throw out some nonsense, things like that,
我真的只能加上一句词 或是演奏一些吉他的部分
I just literally add a line, or play a guitar part.
他会拿起吉他 然后……
He’d just pick up the guitar, and…
（《Music When the Lights Goes Out》的吉他连复段）
（riff of Music When the Lights Goes Out）
或是……（《Don't Look Back into the Sun》的吉他连复段）
Or…（riff of Don’t Look Back into the Sun）
然后那首歌就这样完成了
And it just comes out like that.
*Love On the Dole - The Libertines
请给我一份咸牛肉和一杯茶
Can I have a salt beef and a cup of tea, please?
没错
Yeah.
- 我能和你握个手吗，朋友？
- Can I shake your hand, mate?
- 当然可以。
- Thanks, though.
- 谢谢。我爱你的个人专辑。
- Cheer. I love your solo album.
- 谢了兄弟，非常感谢。
- Cheers,man. Thank you very much.
- 谢谢。
- Thank you.
还有 我能加一份鸡蛋蛋黄酱吗
Also, can I have an egg mayonnaise…
有人为你服务了吗
Is someone serving you?
没错 但我想再多加点东西
Yeah, but there’s more stuff to add.
有人为你服务了吗
No, is someone serving you?
我已经告诉过别人我要什么了 是的
Someone did take my order, yeah.
那就去找那个人 亲爱的
I’d stay with them, daring.
下一位
Next one, please?
真有礼貌
That’s polite.
就是这儿了 多好啊
Here it is. In all its glory.
这块地区最有趣的事情是
The funny things about this whole area,
我所说的倒不是Brick Lane 而是Shoreditch这片地方
I mean, not so much Brick Lane, but Shoreditch itself,
过去这里破得见鬼
I mean, it was rough as arse back in the day.
然后那些艺术家出现了
The thing about artists come out,
他们发现了这块倒胃口的地方 然后这片社区就发展起来了
and they find such a skanky area, and the community develops,
我想这就是Shoreditch的起源
and I guess that’s how Shoreditch started.
我觉得它的核心是Foundry酒吧
I think at the very heart of that was the Foundry.
我和Pete曾在那儿演出过
Me and Pete used to have a night there,
那场演出叫做 “Foundry的阿卡迪亚”
called Arcadia at the Foundry.
这里过去是一些随心所欲的艺术家
And it used to be just, like, random artists,
但都是一些真正的艺术家
but like, proper artists.
经常有一些小型的“即兴演出”
Used to have little “happenings.”
在老银行的地窖里吸一些海洛因之类的东西
Used to let off dynamite and stuff in the old bank vault downstairs.
我们就这样 喝着苦艾酒和别的什么
We’d just like, drink absinthe and all that lot.
我过去常常在诗歌朗诵进行时弹奏钢琴
I used to play the piano while the poetry was going on,
但真的只是像这样弹
but literally like this.
我们以此骗来免费的健力氏黑啤酒
We’d do it as a blag. We used to get free Guinness.
后来这块地方变得商业化 变成了现在的样子
And then it got commercial and became what it its now,
让人难以辨认
which is unrecognizable, and now,
而现在 他们赶走了建立Foundry的人们
they’ve evicted the people who set up the Foundry.
基本等于挖走了他们自己的心脏
So they basically cut out their own heart.
但这种事很常见
But it’s just so typical.
我是说 他们（Foundry的建立人）是这片土地上所有事情的起源
I mean, responsible for this whole area and everything that happened.
却如此无礼地被撵了出来
Yeah, and so unceremoniously just got surgically removed.
多么可耻
And that’s a shame.
*France - The Libertines
有时会有人缺席排练
There were days when people didn’t show up, to the rehearsals.
这在某种程度上 稍稍有些令人不安
It was slightly, kind of, disconcerting,
但事情就是这样 没有办法
but that’s just the way it goes.
你几点到的？
What time did you get here?
两点
Two.
然后我们大概四点半的时候发现Pete还在睡觉
It was kind of half past four that Pete was asleep.
说实话 这些都是和过去一样的破事儿
So it’s the same old shit, really.
我的多疑失落、偏执绝望的状态
The first resurgence of my paranoid,
通常会在出席排练四天后首次复苏
hopeless state, which normally comes after four days up,
那时我会无法前去排练
when I can’t get to rehearsal.
如果回到以前 这种情况会演变成
And back in the day, that would’ve been like
他们会不管我 继续排练
they would have just gone on without me,
但是现在不同了 他们会说 “你没办法来排练了？”
but now, it was different, it was like, “You can’t make the rehearsal?
“没关系，我们明天见。”
“Don’t worry, we’ll see you tomorrow.”
你知道吗 难以形容这是多么大的一种安慰
I can’t tell you what kink of relief that was, you know?
其实很简单
Quiet simple really.
如果Pete没有睡觉 那么Pete就不会出现
If pete doesn’t sleep, then Pete doesn’t turn up.
或者如果他去睡了 那么过去十年里
Or if he goes to bed, then all of these things
困扰着我们的那一切
which dogged our past in the last 10 years,
所有那些情感 那些让你逃离舞台的事物
all of these emotions, and things that make you run off stage
还有那些让我们互相质疑的事情
and things that make us think we’re second-guessing each other,
我知道了 当你睡着的时候那些事情都会离开你
I learnt that that goes away when you go to sleep.
我们花了好久才弄明白为什么人要睡觉
It’s taken us a long time to realize why people go to bed.
*Lust of the Libertines - The Libertines
我们以前经常去Camden喝酒
We used to drink in Camden,
Dublin Castle酒吧和Mixer酒吧
the Dublin Castle and the Mixer.
那儿有个叫Scaborough Steve的家伙
There was a guy down there called Scaborough Steve,
他说 “John，你得去见见那两个叫Pete和Carl的家伙，”
and he said, “John, you’ve got to meet these guys called Pete and Carl,
“我和他们在一个乐队里”
“I’m in a band with them.”
我看见个大高个在花园里 抚摸我的猫
I saw this very tall guy in the garden, stroking my cat,
那就是Pete
and it was Pete.
他向我介绍了他自己
And he introduced himself, and then later,
然后Carl过来了，我们在一起随便弹了会儿吉他
Carl came down and we were just jamming with the guitars.
我想我能吸引他们的是
I think that was kind of what sold it to them,
Scarborough Steve告诉他们我有很多吉他
is that Scarborough Steve had told them, that I had a lot of guitars.
我只是想在一支乐队里弹贝斯
I just wanted to play bass in a band,
而且那些家伙有些好歌 真正的好歌
and these guys had some great songs, really good songs.
一般来说 当我加入了一支乐队
Normally, when I join a band,
总要磨蹭好几个月才会开始做事
you could always vacillate for months on end before you do anything.
在我遇到他们几天后 我们在一间地下室里举行了第一场演出
Couple of days after I met them, we played our first gig in a basement.
然后Pete说 “嘿，我们要录音了。”
And then Pete was like, “Hey, we’re gonna record.”
我回答 “哇哦。好的。”
And I was like, “Wow. Okay.”
*Anything But Love - The Libertines
Banny Poostchi是我们的第一个经纪人
Banny Poostchi was our first manager.
你懂的 我们的第一个正经的经纪人
I mean, our first serious manager.
在过去的日子里 她是管理着The Libertines的人
She was the one who managed The Libertines in the old days
那时我们在小型的酒吧夜店演出
when we’d play around little pubs and clubs,
然后把扩音器调到134
and lug our amps on the 134.
当Banny发现我们的时候 我们过着一种浪漫主义、游吟诗人风格的生活
When Banny found us, we were these romantic, troubadour-esque
仅能勉强维生 但是我们生活在一场冒险中
living totally hand-to-mouth, but we were living an adventure.
坚定地相信我们的热情和
With a firm belief that with our passion and
我们的美妙旋律和歌曲和信念
pretty melodies, and song and conviction,
我们能够征服世界 为我们的同胞做我们该做的事
then we’d be able to conquer and do what we did for our people.
一段时间后 事情开始分崩离析了
After a while, things just started to fall apart.
Pete总是很不负责任 我也跟着他有些不负责了 真的
Pete was always very flighty, and I was kind of flighty with him, really.
鼓手和贝斯手最终受够了
Drummer and the bass player, eventually just got sick of…
你知道的 他们找到了一次演出机会 我们没去
You know, they’d found a gig, we didn’t come.
我们则找了另一场 然后对他们说 “现在过来。”
We found a gig, we said, “Be there now.”
然后我们差不多就算是解散了
And then we sort of split up.
Pete和我很显然…… “我们俩又没有分开的必要。”
Pete and I obviously… “What was the point of us splitting up?”
然后我们意识到我们不能一直这样
Then we realized that we weren’t going to get
靠着歌唱草地上的甜蜜摇篮曲过日子
by just singing sweet lullabies in meadows.
我们的确有着很多的愤怒之类的情绪
We did have a lot of anger and everything.
个人而言 我努力想要把音乐中的这些情感藏起来
Personally, I tried to sort of hide that from the music we did.
我猜我们意识到了 我们应该打开闸门 展现它本来的样子
I guess we realized that, open the floodgates and say it how it is, really.
* The Ha Ha Wall - The Libertines
事情是这样的 一开始 Pete和Carl他们很快拉我入队
Now, in the beginning, Pete and Carl, they pulled me in, really, really quickly.
我想那两个人已经到了这样一种程度
Those guys, I think, had gotten to a point where it was like,
“没错，如果我们要去做这件事，那我们是非常非常认真的。”
“Yeah, we need to really really do this, if we’re going to do this at all.”
而且如果我们要和你玩乐队 Gary
And if we are going to do this with me, Gary,
那么他需要尽全力加入进来
then he needs to be involved as much as possible.
我一直在强调一点
I kept on just overemphasizing the point,
“我们需要一个贝斯手。我们需要一个贝斯手。”
“We need to get a bass player. We need to get a bass player.”
然后我不记得是谁了 他们中的某个人说
And I can’t remember, one of them, either one of them said,
“好吧，我们可以喊上John，那个以前的贝斯手。”然后我说，那就去吧
“Well, we could get John, the old bass player.” And I said, just do it.
Banny 她明确地告诉我们 某种层面上
Banny, she kind of made it clear that there was, kind of…
在很多方面 这是一支与众不同的乐队
It was a different band, in many respects.
这就是我们作为一支新乐队的开始了
That was the first kind of debut, really, as the new band.
*What a Waster - The Libertines
- 好了，让我们来写一张新的歌单。
- Right. Let’s just write a new list.
- 好的。
- Yeah.
实话实说 John 是我们乐队中最佛系的成员
Honestly, John, for the most Zen member of the band,
你从来都不会主动挑事
you don’t half start the worst scraps.
- 我不佛系。
- I’m not Zen.
- 你当然不了。
- You’re not, no.
- Lombard先生。
- Mr Lombard.
Gary “半吊子” Powell
Gary “Half-Job” Powell.
有纸但无笔
Got paper, but no pen.
有屌但无蛋
Got penis, but no balls.
- 所以，我们从《Horror Show》开始。
- So, you start off with Horror Show.
- 《Horror Show》。
- So, Horror Show…
- 《Death on the Stairs》。
- Death on the Stairs.
- 《Horror Show》，好的。我们90%的夜晚都要演奏它。
- Horror Show, yeah. I’d say it’s 90% a night.
- 《Death on the Stairs》。好的。《Don't Look Back》。
- Death on the Stairs. Okay. Don’t Look Back.
- 《Don't Look Back》，我们还没演过它。演过一次。
- Don’t Look Back, we haven’t done that. Did it once.
- 好的，《Don't Look Back》。
- All right, Don’t Look Back.
- 快做决定吧，John。
- Make your mind up, John.
- 为什么要记下这些数据？
- Why are you putting the stats down?
- 这些歌我们都只演过一次或两次。
- Because we played them all once or twice.
- 我们可以在这之后再演一次……
- We can play them again once after this…
- 我说这没有必要……
- I’m saying there’s no point in…
- ……然后我们可以演得很好。
- …and it would be genius.
- 我们在这之后可以再演一次，
- And then we could play them again afterwards,
- 然后这次也许会很差很差。
- and it might be really, really shit.
- 那你想做什么？
- What do you want to do?
- 把它们写下来就是了
- Just write them down.
- 你根本就是在自相矛盾。
- You just totally reversed yourself.
- 冷静点。
- Just chillax.
- 你到底想做什么？之前你说：“为什么要写歌单？”
- What did you want to do? Beforehand, you were like, “Why make a list?
- “我们就这样演出。”
- “Let’s just play stuff.
- “试些新东西。”而现在他又说他不能演新歌了，
- “Try new stuff.” And now, he’s saying that he can’t do new stuff,
- 因为他还不熟悉。
- ‘cause he doesn’t know it yet.
- 我不懂你的态度。
- I don’t understand your attitude.
- 为什么？这看上去不是很有Libertines的风格，你懂我的意思吗？
- Why? It just doesn’t seem very Libertines, you know what I mean?
*Skint and Minted - The Libertines
这一切都发生得很快
It all did happen pretty quickly.
我们一直都想拿下James Endeacott
James Endeacott was the guy that we wanted to pin down for a while.
我们总是等他回复我们的电话 给乐队打电话
Always waiting for him to return our calls and phone the band,
告诉我们有没有新消息
say if there’s any news.
因为我们真的很想和Rough Trade签约
‘Cause we really just want to get signed to Rough Trade.
那就是我们的A计划
That was what we called Plan A.
B计划是和一个叫做High Society的小厂牌签约
Plan B was to sign to this little label called High Society,
他们像Hoxton厂牌一样
which is like a Hoxton label.
我记得他们好像除了White Sport之外没什么乐队
I don’t think they had any bands, apart from the White Sport maybe.
而Pete特别想走B计划
And Pete really wanted to go with Plan B.
我们精心举办了这场演出
We set up this whole elaborate gig,
在Rhythm Factory 那儿曾经是一个舞厅
at the Rhythm Factory, which is a dance venue.
把我们能喊上的所有人都喊上 强行造起了场势 那时真的很……
Got everyone we could together and sort of forced the scene, really, which…
然后这一招起效了 演出气氛和后来其它的演出一样好
And it took. It became as real as any scene does.
令人难忘的是 Banny非常热心
Banny was really sweet about things in a memorable way.
我记得她准备了……
I remember she got a …
当我们第一次请James Endeacott到我们的录音室时
When we first got James Endeacott to come listen in the studio,
她用一辆出租车接他 她在车的后座中准备了啤酒和薯片
she picked him up in a taxi, and she had beer and crisps
仿佛这是一项业界标准似的
in the backseat, as if this was an industry standard thing to do.
我想这一举动让他稍微有些迷惑不解了
Which, I think, might have perplexed him a little bit.
但是那也让他放下了防备 然后一切都很顺利了
But that got his guard down, and it all worked out.
之后他来到录音室看我们录制小样
Then he came down to the studio to see us doing demos.
我想 他以为我们用了些可卡因 但我们只用了很少量的安非他命
And I think he thought we had some coke, but it was mean, mean speed.
然后他就回家了
And he went home.
那个晚上 我想他突然顿悟了
And that night, I think he had an epiphany,
当他躺在妻子身边时
whilst he was lying next to his wife,
他满头大汗、翻来覆去
sweating and wriggling around.
我猜他当晚失眠了 第二天他走到办公室去
And I think he went sleepless into the office the next day,
说到：“伙计们，你们得听听这个。”
and said, “Guys, you gotta listen to this.”
“我发现了好东西。”
“I’m on to something.”
然后一切就从那儿开始了
And then it started rolling from there.
- 取决于你。
- Up to you.
- 用那个插头。
- Use that plug.
- 好，那个其实还可以。
- Yeah, that’s fine actually.
- 《Vertigo》
- Vertigo
这一次 我有一种这样的感觉
This time around, there was a…
一种更坦诚的感觉，就像是
More of an open feeling like…
努力想要享受演奏音乐的同时
Trying to enjoy playing the music at the same time as trying to
拼命担心着它听起来怎么样
worry about what it was sounding like.
- 搞砸了……
- Scuff it up…
- 弹到最后，这样。
- To the end, there.
确保每个人都牢牢地呆在这儿
Make sure you’ve got everyone locked in there.
在你得到所有人的注意力之前不要改变
Don’t change until you get everyone’s attention.
他们知道你会改变的
They know you’re gonna change.
我们来到这儿的原因
‘Cause that’s the whole point of coming in there,
就是我们要一起做这件事
is that we all do it together.
- 你还能帮我们喊一声吗，Gary？
- Can you give us a shout as well, Gary?
- 没问题。
- Yeah. Yeah.
知道我什么意思吗？
Know what I mean?
所以我和John……我和John……
So me and John… Me and John…
正努力弄清《Campaign of Hate》的连复段
Trying to work out the riff to Campaign of Hate,
我对自己很生气
I was really annoying myself.
然后突然 我觉得在所有人面前很尴尬
And then suddenly, I felt embarrassed in front of everyone.
我想：“我他妈在做什么啊？”
I’m thinking, “What the fuck am I doing?”
然后John稍稍暗示着
And then John was kind of hinting at the fact that,
呃 也许应该让Carl来弹那段连复段
well, maybe Carl should play the riff.
那真是让我不知所措
And that really threw me.
那么我来弹Pete的部分
I’ll do Pete’s part then.
- 我来弹Pete的部分。
- I’ll do Pete’s part.
- 那是什么？ 我困惑了。
- What was it? I’m confused now.
- 这样……
- You go…
当我们开始弹的时候我会知道该怎么做的 John 我向你保证
I’ll know how to do it when we start playing, John. I promise you.
- 好吧，只为了你这样。
- All right, just for you.
- 亲爱的，拜托了。
- Darling, please.
- 好的。只为了你。
- Okay. Just for you.
三，四……
Three, four…
漏了那个音 John 它是这样的……
Missed out that one, John. It goes…
弹得像屎
I think that was shit.
“我漏了那一点儿” 不是吗 是啊
“I missed out that bit,” isn’t it? Yeah.
然后你这样弹
Then you go like this.
重点是这儿要这样……
It’s quite important we go…
接着再来一遍…… 没错
And then again it’s… Yeah.
不 不 不是这样的 应该这样……
No, no, it doesn’t do that. It goes…
不是这样 而是三弦
Instead of doing that one, it goes to the G.
这样……
it goes…
然后这样……
And then it goes…
这是那个推弦
It’s that bend.
是的 在第六品
Yeah, on the sixth fret.
然后升调 在第十品推弦
And then it goes up, bend on the tenth fret.
没错
Yeah.
然后呢？
And then what?
然后回到……
And then it goes back to the…
Campaign of hate
没错 好的
Yeah, okay.
没错
Yeah.
好的 酷
Okay, cool.
就是从这儿开始……
So just go from…
从最初开始
Just go from the top then.
好的 好的
Yeah. All right.
从我们开始排练起 我还没这么努力过
I haven’t worked this hard since we started rehearsing.
从头开始
From the top.
一、二、三、四……
One, two, three, four…
*Campaign of Hate - The Libertines
就连Teesdale街都兴兴向荣了
Even Teesdale Street’s gone up in the world.
他们拆掉了过去这里的所有公寓
They knocked down all these flats that were here.
然后建起了这些房子
And they built them.
那些孩子 他们那时候还是婴儿
And those kids, they were babies.
我想我们曾住在那些中的某一间
I think we lived in one of these ones.
就是这儿了
There she blows.
天啊 那是我的旧楼梯
Oh, my God. That’s my old stairs.
我怀疑现在没人住在这儿了
I doubt there’s someone in there.
我记得Pete第一次 大概是这样说的：“我找到了这个地方。”
I remember when Pete first said, like, “I found this place.”
然后我想：“太好了。”
And I thought, “Great.”
我们上了楼 那儿有一间大房间 房间里有一张黄铜大床
We went upstairs and there was, like, one big room with a big brass bed.
那么谁来住这儿呢
Whose bedroom’s this gonna be, then?
我比较重视隐私
I kinda like my privacy.
然后那儿有一个小橱柜 那就是我的卧室了
And there was a little cupboard, and that was my bedroom.
但是 它有扇门 所以基本上……
But, you know, it had a door, and that’s kind of…
那就是我全部的需求了 真的
That’s all I needed, really.
在我离开后 Pete惹上了麻烦
Pete got in trouble after I left,
然后所有东西都被扣押、锁起来了
and everything got impounded and locked up.
这个地方太糟糕了 不久之前还发生了火灾
‘Cause the place was fucked. It had just been burned out.
真丢人
It was disgraceful.
我最后在这儿的时候 厕所都坏了 你必须用依云矿泉水冲厕所
The last I was here, the toilet didn’t work. You had to flush it with Evian.
没错 那儿断水了
Yeah, there was no water.
到处都是粪便
There was just shit everything.
还有很多我不认识的人
There was loads of people I didn’t know.
房子里聚满了不认识的人实在很奇怪
It’s very strange having a house full of people you don’t know.
但是我们也在这儿举办了秘密演出
But we had our secret gigs here.
天知道人们是怎么发现的
God knows how anyone found it.
每个进了屋子的人 Pete都收了10磅
Everyone would come in, and Pete started charging a tenner a pop.
我从不知道那些钱用在哪儿了
Never saw any of that money.
*Road to Ruin - The Libertines
我们第一次举办秘密演出时 在网上发布了消息
When we first did a secret gig and put in on the Internet.
我们不知道这能不能奏效
We didn’t really know if it was going to work.
当我们意识到人们会来的时候 我们有了一些呼之即来的观众
When we realized that people could turn up, we had an audience at our disposal,
这种事可前所未闻 让我们非常兴奋
that was a brand new thing. It was quite exciting.
所有人都挤了进来 然后我们说了些蠢话
Everyone would pile in, then we’d say something stupid like,
“每人都拿点儿东西走。每个人都拿个纪念品。”
“Everyone take something. Everyone have a memento.”
然后我们什么也不剩了
Then there’d be nothing left.
但这是一个整理房子的好方法 强力推荐
It was a good way of having a tidy up, though. Recommend it.
她的内心有个恶魔
She’s got the devil in her heart
恶魔……
The devil…
堪萨斯城
Kansas City!
别弄坏了
Don’t smash it.
住手 John
Stop it, John.
John John John
John. John. John.
不要 住手 住手 停下来
No! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
这样的话 你就……
So that makes you…
John！
John!
他是唯一一个在那儿的人
He’s the only one there.
John！
John!
Buble先生
Mister Buble.
谁拿到的A等最多？
Who got the most A-levels?
好嘞
Yeah.
把它交给大师
Give it to the master.
好吧 来吧 A等男孩
Okay, come on, A-level boy.
那就是你力量的源泉 小子们
That’s how you get your power, boys.
这就算解决了
Did we work on that?
等一下 别他妈把它掉到我的茶里
Hang on. That better not be in my fucking tea.
*Vertigo - The Libertines
他们不仅通过用自己的风格来演出
Not only did they bring something out of the music
在音乐中表达了重要的东西
with their own style of performance,
而且还以自身传达了这些
but they brought something out within themselves
这让人们被他们吸引
that made people want to gravitate to them
正如同一开始 我被他们所吸引一样
as I gravitated towards them in the beginning.
那好像是在暴乱的正中央
It was, like, in the middle of the riots.
我认为我刚被警棍狠狠打了一击
I think I’d just been clonked with a truncheon
而此时此刻的Pete正在一名警卫的盾牌前整理发型
while Pete was doing his hair in one of the guard’s shields.
没错 然后你知道的 那好像是正午
Yeah, and then, you know, suddenly it was like midday.
突然间我们就前往苏活区的Dive酒吧赴约
We had this appointment down at Dive Bar in Soho,
就在中国城 The Old King's Head酒吧的后边
in chinatown, underneath the old King’s Head.
我们去那儿做了第一次正式的采访
We went down there for our first proper interview.
我想那也许在很多方面奠定了我们的前景
I think that might have set the scene for us in a lot of ways.
（精神变态前女友、刃搏、一段艰难的男妓时光： 对东伦敦的The Libertines而言，追逐Arcadian之梦从来都不是什么轻松的事 ——The Libertines是目前英国最好的新乐队)
当你被媒体报道时
When you’re being represented by the media,
你很快意识到你想要呈现的面貌
you learn pretty quickly that what you want to portray is,
十有八九会被扭曲
nine times out of 10, not what’s gonna come across.
但是在我们第一次登上《NME》封面的那次采访中
But in the first NME feature we did for that cover,
我想要记下的每件事
it seemed like everything that I’d have wanted noted,
都被记录了下来 虽然这并不明显
without making it obvious, was put down.
我们的预算非常、非常有限
We were running on a very, very tight budget.
我们有一位巡演经理 他是个音响师
We had one tour manager, he was the sound engineer,
他还得忙着搬运器材
who loaded in, who loaded out,
他必须在早上把我们喊起来 以确保我们能赶上下一场演出
had to get us up in the morning to make sure that we could get to the next gig.
他得做所有的活儿
Had to do absolutely everything.
为了那个人尽可能方便地完成他的工作
In order for that person to do the job as succinctly as they possibly could do,
他们制定了一个日程表
they were running towards a schedule.
Pete和Carl说：“我他妈才不管你的日程表”
Pete and Carl were just like, “I don’t give a dame about your schedule.
“我就要熬夜通宵，”
“I’m staying up all night long, ”
“你他妈做什么也阻止不了我们。”
“and there’s not a dame thing you can do about it.”
如果不是Pete和Carl在那时
Without Pete and Carl being the charming guys
那样魅力四射
that they were at that point in time,
他们也不会那么快就臭名昭著
it would have been much harder for them to gain the notoriety as quickly as they did.
我一直都野心勃勃的 尽管我并不知道到底在追求什么
I was always on the make, in some way. I don’t know what it was.
但是我们毫无疑问地渴望着名声
But we were fame hungry, definitely.
那就是我们想要的 那就是驱使着我们的动力
That’s what we wanted. And that just drove us.
*Mockingbird - The Libertines
接受恶名昭彰的事情让我有些不情不愿
It’s kind of, begrudgingly, and slightly naff
而且这还有些老土
to be accepting things on the strength of notoriety.
我猜 这就像是拥有了一张小有名气的脸蛋一样
I guess it’s like being the owner of a vaguely famous face.
天啊 我想 但它总有派上用场的时候
God, it does have its moments, I suppose.
我是The Libertines里面最渴望名声的人吗
Was I the most fame hungry in The Libertines?
我想 我一定是最……我成为了最扭曲的一位
I think, well, I was definitely the most… I became the most warped
因为我缺乏那种
by the lack of power we ended up having
我们在迅速进入公众视角后才拥有的那种力量
when we got, you know, catapulted into public consciousness.
没错 我在名声这方面真的是一团糟
Yeah, I was a mess, really, when it came to fame.
Albion Rooms中有个有趣的转变
There was a funny switch in The Albion Rooms,
我以前经常喝得烂醉如泥 我只想要每晚出去混混
when I used to get really wrecked and I just wanted to go out every night.
我只是喜欢喝酒
I just loved to drink.
然后 你知道的 我们刚认识了Charlie 而且我们有很多钱，几乎无穷无尽
And, you know, we had just discovered Charlie, and we had a load of money,
我会出门和那些有权有势的人混在一起
endless source of that, and I’d go out and find all the sort of movers and shakers,
想听他们对我说几句好话
for want of a better word.
我记得 就在那时候 我把Cooper Temple Clause的人带过来了
That’s when, I remember, when I brought the Cooper Temple Clause over.
*照片上的为Didz Hammond， The Cooper Temple Clause的贝斯手， 在The Libertines解散后加入Carl的乐队Dirty Pretty Things。
我想要炫耀我们所拥有的一切 我为Pete骄傲
I wanted to show off what we had, and I was proud of Pete.
我爱着Pete 我也想要炫耀他
I loved Pete, I wanted to show him off as well.
但他对我带别人回来这一举动非常恼怒
And he was really annoyed that I brought people back.
他说：“你知道吗？我们应该呆在家里写歌的。”
He said, “You know what? We should just be at home writing songs.”
好吧 我感觉有些背叛他了
Well, I kind of felt I betrayed him a bit.
Pete很烦闷
Pete was kind of frustrated
因为没什么人真的对乐队负起责任来
that not enough people were kind of really taking responsibility for the band.
而且他在很多方面 真的都独自一人
And he was out on his own, really, in many respects,
我想他很沮丧
and I think it was frustrating for him
而且我觉得他可能因此觉得有些被疏远了
and I think he probably felt kind of isolated by that.
没过多久 毒品问题开始浮出水面
Wasn’t long after that that the drug thing started to really hit.
我是说 海洛因的问题 还有那种生活方式
I mean, the smack and the crack thing, and that way of life.
对我来说毒品没什么好浪漫化的
There was very little to romanticise about those drugs for me,
但我想那就是问题所在了
but I guess there was something.
他开始选择那条道路
And he started to take that path.
然后我就想：“好吧，难道我们不应该在这儿写歌”
And I just kind of thought, “Well shouldn’t we be here writing songs
“而不是和这群行尸走肉般的人混在一起？”
“without all these fucking ghoulish people?”
你知道吗
You know?
他们总像是群雇来的观众
It always felt like a sort of rented audience.
Pete却从他们身上找到了不同的东西
Pete would just find different things.
然后 你要知道 成为瘾君子也是一种生活方式 不是吗
And then, you know, addictions are ways of life, aren’t they?
你一旦成为瘾君子 你要花上好几年的时间才能意识到你已经成瘾了
It takes years before you realize they are addictions, if you ever do.
如果这种生活方式确实如此 那么我不仅是不想碰那些东西
if indeed they are, but, you know, not only did I not want to do those things.
我也真的不喜欢它们 我努力过了
I just didn’t like them. I tried.
无数次地 我努力借此来接近Peter
I tried to do it to be closer to Peter on numerous occasions.
关于所有这些事 甚至是关于毒品 我一直都这么对他说
I always said that to him all along. About everything, even about drugs,
“他只要说一句：‘收手吧。’然后我就会这么做的。”
I’d say, “All he has to do is say, you know, ‘Pack it in,’ and I would.”
他却从未这么对我说过
He never actually bothered to say that.
他只是不和我说话了
He just didn’t talk to me.
然后我想 他在那种生活 那些人中
And I think he found a new love and a new light and a new adventure
找了新的爱、新的幸福和新的冒险
in that life, and those people,
他也许为我不想和他一起而心碎不已
and he was probably very heartbroken that I didn’t want to join him.
即便是那时 我对他也说的很坦白
I said even then, I never made any secret of it.
你要知道 海洛因不是冒险 也并不激动人心
You know, especially with heroin, it’s not an adventure, it’s not exciting,
因为这是一个已经被书写了一千次的故事
‘cause it’s a story that’s already been written 1,000 times.
这个故事无聊透顶
It’s fucking boring. It’s like…
它有两种结局 一种是一场长达一生、无聊透顶的战役
It’s got two endings. One is a lifelong dull-as-fuck battle,
你会因此变成行尸走肉
where you’re going to end up a shell of a man,
另一种是迎来无比糟糕的 提前登场的自私的死亡
and the other one is just a really shit, untimely, selfish death.
我的意思是 那……那真的很难说出口 你知道吗
I mean, that’s…That’s a pretty hard thing to point out, you know?
尤其在你刚刚才把脸从可卡因中抬起来时
Especially when you’re off your face on coke.
一点说服力也没有 但事情就这样了
It doesn’t help. But yeah.
*Up the Bracket - The Libertines
一切都很完美 一切都……
We’d made everything just perfect. Everything was… In my mind,
在我的脑海中 我们正一路顺风
you know, we were rolling,
然后他在一次演出前突然开除了John和Gary
and he just went and sacked John and Gary before a gig,
那真的是不可理喻
and it just made no sense, really.
我从来都不想被炒
I never wanted to be fired.
但如果我被炒了 我多少能猜到点原因
But if it was gonna happen, I kind of knew why.
我有些猜到了
I kind of figured that out.
而且我没什么生气的理由
And there wasn’t any point in me getting pissed off,
因为那就是我自己选择的路
‘cause that was the bed that I put myself into.
我并不觉得我是完全无辜的 你懂吗
I don’t feel like I was kind of blameless for what happened, you know?
你要知道 我们四人之间 在某个方面一直都存在着分歧
There was always that kind of division between, you know…
显然这感觉很不好
In a way, between the four of us, and obviously it didn’t feel very good.
时间推移
Time moves on.
那些事情在那时爆发是有原因的
There was a reason that that happened at that point in time.
然而现在 当然了 我们翻篇了
Whereas now, obviously, you know, we’ve moved on.
你好
Hello?
排练的最后一天
管理员
Operator?
呃 不是 我想我们要将这些歌放进三张歌单中
Well, no, I thought we were gonna put in those three sequences.
所以把新歌都挑出来
So skip the new ones together.
还有我们要准备两张完全不同的歌单 是吗
Also, we’re gonna have two completely different sets, aren’t we?
为了The Forum和音乐节的演出
For the Forum and for the festivals.
没有必要
Not necessarily.
还是有必要的
Well, yeah, necessarily.
因为The Forum没有宵禁 没有时间限制
‘Cause the Forum, there’s no curfew, there’s no set amount of time.
所以我们可以演一整晚
We can play there the whole night.
但那场是为了音乐节的热身运动 不是吗
But it’s a warm-up for the festival, isn’t it?
不 不是的
No, it’s not…
你知道我们可以做什么吗
You know what we could do?
我说 我们可以做的是
I said, what we could do,
我们可以把他们都写下来
we could write them out,
写下我们准备着的所有歌 把它们放在地板上
all the songs that we’re doing, write them out and put them on the floor,
然后把它们打乱
and then jumble them about.
如果你抽到了两首一样的 那就再抽一首
If you get two of the same, then you get another go.
就像抽卡游戏
Like Tazos?
好吧 我们可以把听起来相似的歌放在一起
Okay. We could do it by whatever song sounds the most similar.
然后他们分为一组
Then it counts as double.
比如说 《Vertigo》和《Horror Show》就很像
Like, Vertigo sounds quite similar to Horror Show.
我们还漏了哪一个
So which one do we miss out?
《Up the Bracket》
Up the Bracket?
这他妈难道不是在浪费时间吗
This is a fucking waste of time, isn’t it?
不是的
No, it was not!
我认为我们应该把它们俩都留下来
I think we should still keep them both.
不 不
No! No!
因为这也许不会有用的
‘Cause it might not work.
*Tell the King - The Libertines
我们应该回家睡觉了
We should go home to bed.
睡觉
To bed?
我要去喝一杯啤酒
I’m gonna go for one pint.
庆祝今天干得很好
To celebrate today’s good work.
真不错
Really quick.
你不想来一杯吗
Do you not fancy one?
来喝一杯
Want a pint?
不系安全带一点也不酷
Is it not cool to wear a seatbelt?
很时髦 不是吗
Very trendy, is it?
像这样丢了性命可就不时髦了 朋友
Not very trendy to lose your life like this, man.
很时髦的 你是说Hendrix、Cobain、Morrison……
It’s very trendy. Are you saying Hendrix, Cobain, Morrison…
*Jimi Hendrix、Kurt Cobain、Jim Morrison与Janis Joplin均于27岁去世
还有Joplin……你会说他们不酷吗？
Are you saying that Joplin… You’re saying they weren’t cool?
伙计 你们想去到Kentish Town路的哪里
How far up Kentish Town Road do you want, mate?
在途中的Patshull把我们放下就行
Just drop us off on the way at Patshull.
你要知道 Libertines就像一个引线很短的巨大火药桶
You know, you’re like, Libertines is like a big powder keg with a very short fuse.
它总有些疯狂 令人放心不下
It’s all a bit fraught and manic.
*在Peter与Carl的神话中，Pigman早期概指Arcadia的子民， 后来则成为了Carl称呼Peter的绰号之一。
Pigman曾经说过
It was the Pigman who once said
我们用心碎流出的血写下了每首歌的字字句句
That the blood from broken hearts writes the words to every song.
那就是问题所在 不是吗
And that’s the trouble, isn’t it?
这可没有说起来那么容易 除非你已经做了很多次
It’s just not that easy. Unless you just do loads of them.
*Plan A - The Libertines
我记得那次是我的生日
I remember it was my birthday
Pete在Gunter Grove还是别的什么地方举办了场演出
and Pete had a gig at Gunter Grove or something,
我说我会去的
and I said I’d go,
但是我的朋友们在苏活区喊我去唱该死的卡拉OK
but my friends had arranged me fucking karaoke in Soho.
然后Pete 他根本无法理解 他在发他自己的疯
And Pete, he just wouldn’t understand. He was on his own manic path.
但是他身边的尽是些可卡因、海洛因和狐朋狗友
But that was all the crack and the smack and the drones that hung around him.
然后事情就开始变味了
And it was becoming something different.
后来这几乎演变成了不同的派别
That’s when it started becoming almost different factions,
不同的阵营 这就开始变得有些恶心了
different camps, and it started getting a bit grotesque.
那就是我第一次这么说
And that was the first occasion
“你知道吗？我不会去的。”
when I just said, “Do you know what? I’m not going.”
对我而言 Arcadia不是去诋毁别人的梦想和意志
Arcadia, for me, isn’t pissing all over someone else’s fucking dreams and will.
而是我们都可以共同分享的东西
It’s about something that’s shared.
是美丽的存在
It’s about something that’s beautiful.
无论如何
And for whatever reason,
我认为Pete已经偏离了
I don’t think Pete was coming from a place
拯救Albion和Arcadian之梦的正确航线
that saved Albion and the Arcadian dream.
没错 那真的很艰难
Yeah, it was very hard.
我不得不鼓起勇气 才能坚持自己的路
And I had to find some reserves of bravery to be able to go my way.
他们把我踢出了乐队 没了我的乐队仍然继续巡演
They booted me out of the band and carried on without me.
是啊 我根本不明白
Yeah, I don’t understand how in the first place
我怎么会被自己的乐队踢出去的
I can get kicked out of my own band.
我不明白那是怎么回事
I don’t understand how that worked.
我不明白……"他妈的为什么？"
I don’t understand how… “What the fuck?”
然后Pete走向了疯狂
When Pete was going crazy
接着所有人都逐渐担忧起来
and constantly everyone was worried
然后 当然了 想要团结起来是很困难的
and, of course, it was so difficult to hold together.
最终人们看向我 说：“你怎么样了？”
When people finally looked to me and said, “What about you?”
“这一定让你支离破碎、心碎不已了吧。”
“This is actually tearing you apart and breaking your heart.”
当人们这么说的时候 我松了一口气
And when people said that, I was relieved,
我感到了宽慰 因为我太孤独了
and I felt comforted ‘cause I felt so alone out there.
但是我想 如果不是人们的支持给了我力量
But I think maybe I wouldn’t have done it
我是不可能撑下去的
without the strength of other people giving me some support.
我心烦意乱
And I was distraught.
我曾想要用刀划掉我们的Libertine纹身 它现在看上去没那么糟糕了
I tried to carve over our “Libertine.” It doesn’t look so bad now.
我想要划掉……
I tried to carve out…
看看划开纹身的那道小疤痕
Look at that little scar there that opened right up,
除了“L”和“E”你几乎看不清其他任何字母
so you can’t actually see anything but the “L” and the “E”.
当时我打开电视
That was when I just, literally, turned on the telly
他们正在Top of the Pops上演奏《Don't Look Back into the Sun》
and they were doing Don’t Look Back into the Sun on Top of the Pops.
好吧 去他妈的
Well, fucking hell.
如果能回到过去 我也不会改变任何事
Retrospectively, I wouldn’t have done anything differently,
因为我一直真实地做着我自己
‘cause I always acted true to who I was.
而且 你知道的 我会想：“那是一道自我防御机制吗？”
And, you know, just thinking, “Is that a defense mechanism?”
不 我不这么认为
No, I don’t think it is.
我不会改变任何事的
I wouldn’t change anything.
那就是我们的旅程
That’s our journey.
那就是注定要发生的事
That was what was supposed to happen.
伙计 你拿到我楼下的牛仔裤了吗
Do you have my jeans downstairs, mate?
拿到了 我拿了你的包
Yeah, I took your bag.
那儿放着些牛仔裤 蓝色牛仔裤
There were some jeans in there. Blue jeans.
别担心 只是我的腰带在里面 好了我们该走了
Don’t worry, just my belt is in there. All right, we better get going.
我把它落在楼梯上了
I just left it on the staircase.
你怎么了
You what?
我把它落在楼梯上了
I left it on the staircase.
Mario 你能帮我看一下宾客名单吗
Mario, can you do us some guest list favours?
请帮我确认一下我姐姐的四个额外名额
Can you make sure my sister’s got a plus four?
Lucie
Lucie?
是的
Yeah.
今晚四个名额 对吗
Four tonight? Yeah.
没错
Yeah.
怎么样了
How are we doing?
很好很好 我只是在确认你今晚的名额
Good. Good. Was just checking your names for tonight actually.
Loz Butty？Hussy。L-O-Z？Hussy？
Loz Butty? Hussy. L-O-Z ? Hussy?
Sameera 和…… Sameera？
Sameera and… Sameera?
Cherry
Cherry.
你是在念你的黑名单吗？
Are you reading out of your little black book?
我只是想知道你今晚想来看The Libertines吗
I just wanted to know if you want to come and see The Libertines tonight?
在Kentish Town Forum
At Kentish Town Forum.
Kentish Town Forum
Kentish Town Forum.
我马上给你发短信
I’ll send you a text right away.
好的 不错 好的 谢了 到时候见 谢谢 拜拜
Okay, wicked. All right. Cheers. See you. Thank you. See you. Bye. Bye.
是谁
Who’s that?
我的医生
My doctor.
嗨 Kelly
Hi, Kelly.
还不错 你怎么样
Yeah, not bad. How you going?
是啊是啊是啊
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
我正在紧急检查我的宾客名单
I’m just doing a panic guest list check now,
因为我之前忘了
‘cause I’ve neglected to do that.
但是我明天会去见你 好吗
But I’ll see you tomorrow, all right?
保重 再见 谢了 拜拜
Take care. See you. Cheers! Bye! Bye.
“我排练很辛苦吗？”
“Have I been rehearsing a lot?”
让我们现在聊聊这个吧
Let’s have that chat right now.
这些事真让人伤脑筋
It’s a bit nerve-racking, all this.
是啊
Yeah.
是啊 那很酷
Yeah, that’s pretty cool.
我会娶你的
I’d marry you.
很高兴见到你
Good to see you.
太好了 你怎么样
Good. How are you?
非常好
Very well.
你和……一样过来的吗
Did you get here the same way as…
我们事先准备得很少
There was so little preparation going into it.
我必须更加努力
I had to work even harder
确保我心理上真正准备好
to make sure that I was really mentally prepared.
我把自己与外界屏蔽 只思考音乐
I’d close myself down, and I’d think about the music.
然后我再将自己置身于乐队之中 和他们几个一起
And then I’d put myself in the zone of being in the band with the guys.
在很多方面 我们都使得对方更加完美
We do, in many ways, complete each other.
你不会这样形容很多人
Which you can’t say about a lot of people.
这是有代价的 但是当它发生的时候 这比任何事物都要纯粹
It comes at a price, but when it happens, it’s just purer than anything else.
当我们走到舞台上的时候 哪怕仅仅只是排练
When we got up on stage, just to rehearse,
这种感觉无与伦比
it was like nothing else.
我们仿佛从来没有分开过
It was like we hadn’t dropped a beat.
*Boys in the Band - The Libertines
人们总是问：“你紧张吗？” 我回答：“不，我不紧张。”
People always say, “Do you get nerves?” And I say, “No, I don’t get nerves.”
我感到很幸运……哪怕仅仅是能弹我的吉他
I felt really lucky that I was going… Just going to play my guitar,
能和Carl和John和Gary一起演奏这些歌
and play these songs with Carl and John and Gary.
我真的十分幸福 我觉得自己很幸运
I felt really blessed. I felt really lucky.
有关这些演唱会的、真正绝妙的地方是
One of the really great things about these concerts
实际上这是一次机会
was that, actually, it was kind of an opportunity
能够重拾这支乐队 能够尝试着去创造些什么
to revisit the band and kind of try and creat something
并迎来一个更好的结局
with a better ending to it.
很高兴见到你
Yeah, good to see you.
我也是
Right.
哦天啊 我是亲到你了吗
Oh, God! Are we smooching?
差点就要和你拥吻了 很抱歉
Just nearly snogged you. Sorry about all that.
G A
G, A
是这样吗 那应该是什么
Is that it? What is that?
不 应该是……
No, it’s…
我想是D A 升C……
I think it’s D, A, C-sharp…
B A
B, A.
升F A
F-sharp. A?
Pete Pete Pete Pete
Pete? Pete? Pete? Pete?
好快 好快
速い、速い
Darren告诉我们你喜欢这些
Darren told us you dig these.
不 我不认为……
No, I don’t think…
不 不 不
No, no, no.
不 通过……这会是……
No, with the… It’ll be like…
他还是不在这儿
He’s still not here!
喂 喂
Oi! Oi!
嘿 爸爸
Hey, Dad!
嘿 爸爸
Hey, Dad!
嘿 到这儿来
Hey there, mate.
我已经一辈子没见你了 你去哪儿了
Where you been all my life?
那你去哪儿了呢
Where’ve you been?
我一直在找你啊
Been looking for you.
找我
Looking for me?
所以 我们快点行动 当我们走出……
So, just quickly, when we come out of the…
下周 这些男孩们会在十七万的观众面前表演
Next weekend, the boys have got 170,000 people to play in front of.
所以今晚 为了你们
So tonight, for you,
The Libertines就要演出了
The Libertines are going to play.
他们会在十分钟之内上台
They’re on in 10 minutes,
我们打赌你们能发出Reading和Leeds音乐节上的观众一样响的噪音 对吗
and we challenge you to make as much noise as Reading and Leeds will, okay?
John
John!
*Horror Show - The Libertines
没错 我要对你实话实说
Yeah, I’ll be honest with you.
我从未想过他们能做到这样
I didn’t think they could do it,
他们让我他妈的失去理智
and they fucking blew my mind.
前半夜到达了高潮 就像地震一样
Earlier tonight was orgasmic. It was seismic.
撼天动地
It was cataclysmic.
全场都他妈的在吼叫 都他妈的要把他们的牙齿磨碎了
It was just like fucking responding and all that, fucking grinding their teeth.
然后我他妈的吐了口水然后操：“来啊！”就像这样。“来啊！”
And I’m fucking spitting and fucking, “Come on!” It was like that. “Come on!”
*Can't Stand Me Now - The Libertines
有人写了“Libertines” 还有一颗爱心
Someone’s wrote “Libertines” with a sort of love heart.
那个呢
How about that then?
这里有点像是个Libertines小巷
It is a little bit of a Libertines alley.
我是说 这不像Abbey Road那样 但有什么可抱怨的呢
I mean, it’s not Abbey Road, but mustn’t grumble.
但是我必须得说 这里真是超出了我们的想象
But that is pretty fucking far out, I got to say.
那儿写的什么
What does that say?
“但我们不能永生”
“But we can’t live forever.”
你想的和我一样
Your guess is as good as mine.
我没想到会看到这些 真的
I wasn’t expecting this, that’s for sure.
这真的很美丽
It’s kind of beautiful, really.
我也许会死得更开心一些
I might die a bit happier.
但我得先想办法消磨时间
I’ve got to kill time first.
这边
There you go.
这真他妈疯了
This is fucking mental.
这里 这是112A 我和你说过的
There you go. It was 112A. I told you.
*Radio America - The Libertines
是啊 这有点震撼到我了
Yeah, it has kind of knocked me sideways a bit.
是的 它提醒了我 我们对很多人而言意义重大
Yeah, just reminds me it means a lot to a lot of people.
你是怎么一步步走到现在的呢
How’d you go forth to all of that?
我认识一个平凡的当兵小伙
“I knew a simple soldier boy
*西格弗里德·萨松所著诗歌《战壕中的自杀》，翻译参考自网络多个译版
面对单调的生活他总是无忧开怀
Who grinned through life in empty joy.
即使孤独黑夜 也能安然入睡
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
翌日清晨 又与鸟儿一同唱歌
And whistled early with the lark.
但在冬日的战壕里 他却忧愁颤抖
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
只有炮火、虱子和远远不够的朗姆酒
With crumps and lice and lack of rum.
他对着自己脑袋扣下扳机
He puts a bullet through his brain.
从此再也没人把他提起
No one spoke of him again.
你们这些看着士兵前进欢呼的人群
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
带着得意的面孔和闪亮的眼睛
Who cheer when soldier boys march by.
躲回家去吧 祈祷自己永远也不会知道
Sneak home and pray you’ll never know
是怎样的地狱 在等着他们的青春与欢笑
The hell where youth and laughter go.”
那是Wilfred Owen和Siegfried Sassoon
Well, that was Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon.
仅仅是将这首诗带回来 写在东伦敦的墙上 这件事
Just to bring that back and have it on the wall in East London is…
真够感人的
That’s quite moving.
还有 “操他妈” 当然少不了了
And, “Fuck ‘em,” of course.
*Never Never - The Libertines
雷丁音乐节
兄弟 我们刚刚才到这儿 这一天就快结束了
Man, and no sooner are we here than this day will be over.
是啊
Yeah.
没错 这就像一个巨大的业界骗局
Yeah, it was almost like a big industry con.
这整件事就像是 “没错。把他们重新聚起来，”
The whole thing, it was like, “Right. Get them back together
“然后所有人都会开心了。” 就像 该死……
“and everyone’s happy,” like, fucking…
巡演巴士公司跟着来了
Tour bus company came up with like
四辆巡演巴士还有一辆给工作人员的 一共五辆
for tour buses and one for the crew, that’s five.
五辆巡演巴士 有人得靠这挣了一大笔钱
Five tour buses, someone’s made a mint there.
我不知道是谁做的这趟买卖 但是有人挣了一大笔钱
Don’t know who did the merchandise, but someone made a mint there.
谁是经纪人 我不知道他是谁 我们不需要他
Who was the agent? Don’t know who that was. We didn’t need him.
他不需要宣传这操蛋的演出
He didn’t have to advertise the fucking gigs
反正门票都能卖光的
they could have sold out anyway.
我可以用自己的手机卖光这些演出的所有门票
I could have sold out those gigs myself with my mobile phone.
但是有人从中挣了一大笔钱
But someone made a mint there.
我就像：“好吧，一切都恢复原样了。”
I was just like, “Yeah, everything’s back.”
每个人都能从中受益
Everyone’s gonna do well out of it.
*Anthem for Doomed Youth (Working Title) - Working-in-progress piece by Peter Doherty
我要离开这儿上舞台去了
I’m gonna go down and walk up to the stage.
好的 祝你好运
All right, good luck.
谢了
Thanks.
一长队的人都在祝福着你们
Queue of well-wishers.
去让他们目瞪口呆吧
Knock them dead.
John 祝你好运
John, good luck.
谢了 伙计
Cheers, mate.
祝你好运 朋友
Good luck, mate.
谢了
Cheers.
加油 加油
Come on, come on.
谢了
Cheers.
John
John.
祝你们好运 男孩们 在舞台上见你们
Good luck, boys. See you up there.
祝你表演精彩
Have a fucking brilliant one.
该死 我又得去小便了
Shit, I need to piss again.
我知道Carl深深地在乎着我们所成就的一切
I know Carl cares deeply, really, about what we achieved
而且我想 他真的相信他自己非常关心我
and I think he really believes he cares a lot about me,
但能像现在这样 真的花了很大的努力才奏效
but it takes this huge mechanism to kick in before there’s any, like,
在酒吧里聊天 或是排练 或是交流
talk in the pub or rehearsing or communication.
和Pete一起出去几乎是不可能的
It’s impossible to hang out with Pete.
Pete就像故事传说里的花衣魔笛手
Pete’s a pied piper, you know?
他能给人们带来快乐 他奇妙、美丽、激发人的灵感
He can be entertaining and wonderful and beautiful and inspiring,
吸引着人们
and take people with him.
如果我们要一起踏上旅途
If our journey’s together,
那意味着我们得在一起
that means we need to go together.
我们需要肩并着肩
We need to be side by side.
只是这未知与不确定性让我精疲力竭
Just the exhaustion, of the not knowing, of the unpredictability.
尽管我爱着这种未知 尽管它让我感到活着
As much as I do love it, as much it makes me feel alive,
我只希望它能轻松点儿
I just wish it could be easier.
我和其他很多人组过乐队 他和他们中大部分人都不一样
It’s not like that with most of the people I’ve been in bands with.
和Carl在一起的时候 我知道原因
With Carl it is, you know, I know why,
他不信任我 而且他已经很长时间不相信我了
but he doesn’t trust me and he hasn’t trusted me for a long time.
我所知道的是 想要挽回什么已经太晚了
And as far as I can tell, it’s too late to do anything about it.
我没有选择在27岁死去是有原因的 真的
I opted out of dying at 27 for a reason, really.
我想我没有就这样接受死亡 这却带来了灾难
I think not to accept that is just going to cause disaster.
*The Delaney - The Libertines
*Don't Look Back into the Sun - The Libertines
*I Get Along - The Libertines
谢谢大家
Thank you.
我们正处在一个音乐随时可弃的时代
We’re in a period of time, right now, where music is disposable.
我们不可能一直表演《Begging》
There’s no way we can rely on playing Begging forever.
这不会解决问题的
It just won’t wash.
人们最终会对此感到非常、非常无聊
People will get really, really bored of it.
那就是Libertines之名终结的时刻
And then that will be the end of the name Libertines.
但是为了找出我们前行的方向
But we have to look at who we are, look at where we came from,
我们得看清我们究竟是谁 看清我们从何而来
in order to figure out exactly where we’re going.
他不愿意花时间和我一起写歌
I don’t feel like a jilted lover
但我并不感觉自己是一个被抛弃的恋人
in the fact that he doesn’t want to spend time with me
因为他一直都不想花时间和我一起写歌
writing songs because he never did.
我意识到我非常想给他一些刺激
I’d be very conscious of wanting to give him something
好让他产生灵感或是想要做出贡献 你懂吗
that he’d be inspired by or want to contribute to, you know?
看着他现在的样子 说实话
It’s almost like I’ve never written a song with him before, to be honest,
我仿佛从来都没他一起写过歌
the person he is now.
我想了很多 真的 一切只取决于Carl
I think a lot of it, really, just boils down to Carl.
我、Gary和John都很容易受影响
And me, Gary, and John are quite pliable.
非常容易被左右 就像处在……
Quite easily manipulated like in a…
我们随时都能以The Libertines的名义做任何事
Pretty much up for doing anything, anytime, as The Libertines now.
真的取决于Carl
It’s really down to Carl.
我想要再次写歌
I’d like to write again.
我也想要写些新东西
I’d like to write fresh, as well.
我不想要一直演奏旧的东西 炒冷饭
I don’t want to be playing old things and rehashing things.
我认为 如果我不能至少试着和Peter一起再做张专辑
I don’t think I’d feel complete as a person to not,
我的人生是不完整的
at least, attempt to make another record with Peter.
但是时机必须正确 就像这些演出的时机一样 我得知道正确的时机
But the time has to be right, like it was right for these gigs. I have to know.
到了恰当的时候 我会很乐意再做张专辑的
It has to feel right. I’d love to do that.
不能再写张专辑让我非常受伤 但是事情总没有那么容易
It hurts me that I just can’t do it, but it’s just not that easy.
大家干杯
Cheers, everyone!
来了
Here we go!
干杯
Cheers!
The Libertines的重组对我而言是一次和英雄们再次团聚的机会
The Libertines reunion for me was a chance to be back with heroes.
他们从我的体内挖掘出了某些重要的东西
They pulled something out of me
同时改变了我这个个体
and changed who I am as an individual in the same breath.
我想 我们最伟大的成就就是 我们为了这些演出克服了我们的差异
I think the greatest achievement was we managed to overcome our differences
我们在这一团糟之后仍然能做朋友
for these shows and that we can be friends again after all this shit.
我认为那是个伟大的成就
I think that’s a great achievement.
那些未完成的事 在某个方面 显而易见
The unfinished business was, in a way, obviously…
对我们正在讨论的这些事 我并没有过于乐观
I’m not being overly optimistic about everything the way I’m talking now,
但是我想 认真的 我有意淡化它对我的重要性
but I think, really, I’m underplaying how important it was to me
这些演出的重要性 这些演出的精彩程度 因为它们真的很重要
playing those gigs and how amazing it was, ‘cause it was.
其他人怎么想其实并不重要
It doesn’t really matter what anyone else thinks,
因为我知道他真的很享受它
‘cause I could see he was genuinely enjoying it.
知道他和我在一个乐队里能够很开心
It was really important for me to feel that
对我而言真的很重要
he could just be happy to be in the band with me.
当我们在舞台上时 那一瞬间 它是如此珍贵 如此难得
When we’re on stage, at that moment, it’s so hard to find and so hard to reach.
它迸发而出 吞噬一切 又蔓延开来
It just comes out and eclipses everything, and just spreads.
那就是The Libertines给我带来的幸福
That’s the happiness that I had in The Libertines.
再没有一件像它一样的事了
Nothing like it.
它就像飞雪一样
It’s pure as the driven snow,
纯粹又珍贵
and rare.
(后有彩蛋)
*You're My Waterloo - The Libertines
哦 该死
Oh, shit.
操
For fuck’s sake!
砸了它
Hang it.
这正是我们需要的
This is what we really need.
您弹得挺好的了 Carl 考虑到那可是一首很老的歌了
You did well with that, Carl, considering that’s quite an oldie.
是啊 你懂的
Well, you know.
好了 我们能做些别的事吗
Right, shall we do something different then?
