LightMyFire是美国摇滚乐队TheDoors的歌曲。这是一首关于欲望,关于诱惑的歌。这首歌的魅力是无法抵御的,它穿过骨头抚摩你的灵魂,使你的心激动不安。这是一首让人不忍多听的歌曲,躁动、狂热,充满欲望的压抑与宣泄。
摄人心魂的歌词,被一把冷漠绝望的声音唱出。LightMyFire长为7分钟,却有5分钟的管风琴与吉它的Solo,两件乐器此起彼伏,配合得精彩绝伦,像一场绵长而激烈的性爱。
歌曲一开始是JimMorrison如呓语般的开场白,接着管风琴意趣盎然地登场,开始是轻松而有节制的欢乐气氛,逐渐演变成愤怒而迷乱,失去平衡的节奏,充满矛盾的攻击,最后在复杂的鼓点中达到高潮,随后渐趋平静。
这时迎来了电吉他冷静而性感的戏谑,充满挑逗的意味。两种乐器,两种旋律,两种节奏此消彼长,纠缠不休,最后渐渐趋于一致,偃旗息鼓。这时JimMorrison令人迷醉的嗓音再次幽幽响起:“Comeonbabylightmyfire…Comeonbabylightmyfire。Trytosetthenightonfire…”有人把lightmyfire翻译成“点燃我心中的火”,或“点燃我的欲火”,我觉得都不够传神。
在JimMorrison绝无仅有的嗓音里,我听到的是绝望的狂热,是一种渴望燃烧,期待对方把自己一把火点着的焦躁。而“setthenightonfire”则是有期待把这暧昧不明的夜晚用一把火烧得精光的意味。
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
