Depeche Mode--Black Celebration

"Black Celebration"是Depeche Mode第一章邁入成熟階段的專輯；開場曲，與專輯同名的"Black Celebration"一直是歌迷公認的經典之一，雖然它不是主打歌。

這首歌也在我的DM Top 10之一。只有DM的歌才能有這麼細膩的編曲，繁複卻不冰冷。聽這首歌總是給我一種悲喜交集(bittersweet)的感受。

最近的心情很複雜，太多的事情在我心中糾結在一起，有些事又無法言喻。
To put it simply, let's have a black celebration tonight.

其實這首歌的現場版比錄音室裡的更棒。

Let's have a black celebration
Black celebration
Tonight

To celebrate the fact
That we've seen the back
Of another black day

I look to you
How you carry on
When all hope is gone
Can't you see

Your optimistic eyes
Seem like paradise
To someone like
Me

I want to take you
In my arms
Forgetting all I couldn't do today

Black celebration
Black celebration
Tonight

To celebrate the fact
That we've seen the back
Of another black day

I look to you
And your strong belief
Me, I want relief
Tonight

Consolation
I want so much
Want to feel your touch
Tonight

Take me in your arms
Forgetting all you couldn't do today

Black celebration
I'll drink to that
Black celebration
Tonight
