很无意间看到的一个广告,是来自英国的百货公司John Lewis。这则名为“女人(Woman)”的广告开始于小女孩的襁褓时代,在摄影机的变换间——女孩结婚、生子、衰老——掠过了这简单却温馨的一生。广告仅用短短了一分半的时间就让我们看到了一个人的一生。
广告里面的歌曲来自Billy Joel的《She’s Always a Woman》,歌词如下:
She can kill with a smile,
she can wound with her eyes,
She can ruin your faith
with her casual lies,
And she only reveals
what she wants you to see.
She hides like a child
but she’s always a woman to me.
She can lead you to love,
she can take you or leave you,
She can ask for the truth
but she’ll never believe you,
And she’ll take what
you give her as long as it’s free,
Yeah she steals like
a thief but she’s always a woman to me.
Oh, she takes care of
herself, she can wait if she wants,
She’s ahead of her time.
Oh, and she never gives
out and she never gives in,
She just changes her mind.
And she’ll promise you
more than the garden of Eden
then she’ll carelessly
cut you and laugh while you’re bleeding,
But she brings out the
best and the worst you can be.
Blame it all on yourself
cause she’s always a woman to me.
Oh, she takes care of
herself, she can wait if she wants,
She’s ahead of her time.
Oh, and she never gives
out and she never gives in,
She just changes her mind.
She is frequently kind
and she’s suddenly cruel,
She can do as she pleases,
she’s nobody’s fool,
But she can’t be convicted,
she’s earned her degree,
And the most she will
do is throw shadows at you
But she’s always a woman to me.
幸福和温馨的一生
