今月選んだ曲は、グラミー賞受賞の記憶新しいイギリスの歌手、オリヴィア・ディーンのMan I Needです。とても耳障りの良い、ちょっと懐かしい空気感の漂うおしゃれポップとなっております。
ぜひ原曲を聴いてください!めっちゃ美人さんだし声は最高だし、曲も粒揃いのセンスの良さ!
さて、今月のレッツ英語with Potatoさんのコーナー👏
最初の方に
Looks like we're making up for lost time
っていう歌詞が出てくるのですが、make upって何やねんっていうところを説明すると
Lost time=失われた時間
を
Make up=(ここでは)取り戻す、埋め合わせる
っていう意味になるんですね!
だからこの1文を日本語に訳すと、「私たち、失くした時間を取り戻してるみたいね」って感じかな。詩的な才能なくてすいません💦
Make upって、他にもいろんな意味があって、作り出す、お化粧をする、(ベッドを)整える、仲直りをする、でっちあげる、とかね!状況や文面で判断するしかないのが難しいけど、一緒に英語がんばろー!
以下歌詞↓
Talk to me, talk to me
Talk to me, talk to me
Hm
Looks like we're making up for lost time
Need you to spell it out for me
Bossa Nova on all night
It's like a type of alchemy
Introduce me to your best friend
I can come and slot right in
A satellite ain't even that far
I, I kinda wonder where you are
Already know I can't leave it alone
You're on my mind, mm
Already gave you the time and the place
So, don't be shy
Just come be the man I need
Tell me you got something to give, I want it
I kinda like it when you call me wonderful
Whatever the type of talk it is, come on then
I gotta know you're meant to be the man I need
Talk to me
Talk to me
Mm, talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, need, need
Mm, talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man, man, man, man, man
I'd like to think you feel the same way
But I can't tell with you sometimes
So, baby, let's get on the same page
Stop making me read between the lines
Already know I can't leave it alone
You're on my mind, mm
Already gave you the time and the place
So, don't be shy
Just come be the man I need
Tell me you got something to give, I want it
I kinda like it when you call me wonderful
Whatever the type of talk it is, come on then
I gotta know you're meant to be the man I need
Talk to me, talk to me
Talk to me, talk to me
Mm, talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, need, need
Mm, talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man, man, man, man, man
Mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm
Mm-mm, mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm, mm
