每周背景音乐BGM推荐 - Seven years

你现在听到的这首歌名为“7 years”，演唱者 Lukas Graham. 

Lukas Graham 是一支丹麦流行乐队，由主唱Lukas Forchhammer；鼓手Mark Falgren，Mark Falgren外号"Lovestick"；贝斯手Magnus Larsson和键盘手Kasper Daugaard组成.

Lukas Graham或许还是一个相对陌生的名字，但他的单曲《7 years》却已当仁不让成为当下欧洲乃至美国最火的一首歌，从去年十月推出至今，曾在整个北欧地区创下榜单神话，甚至将同期的Adele挡在冠军宝座之外。而今, 这首歌已连续五周蝉联英国单曲榜冠军，创下50万单曲销量，并在多国iTunes，spotify榜单冲进前三.  2016年5月3日，《7 Years》以在美国本土超过一百万的销量被美国唱片业协会认证为白金单曲.

乐队主唱卢卡斯·葛拉汉曾表示《7 Years》描写了他的人生经历以及对未来的美好憧憬。歌词中最终将他的年龄写到60岁是因为其父亲在61岁时去世了，他需要过去并相信未来。卢卡斯说，这首歌的内容是关于长大的，做一个好父亲是他觉得最重要的事情，而他最大的梦想就是不要去做一个消极的老家伙.

《7 Years》听起来就像对披头士的《When I'm Sixty-Four》的回答，它洋溢着对人生流逝之快的感慨。卢卡斯发现了自己甜蜜的感伤和心碎的移情之间的路径.《7 Years》是最好的描述性歌曲之一，唱出了对父亲去世的悲伤，他用四分钟唱出了对一生的渴望.

卢卡斯·葛拉汉说如果父亲没在2012年去世，也许他也不会写出《7 Years》这首歌，也不会被华纳唱片签约~ 

7 Years 

Lukas Graham

Once I was seven years old my momma told me

Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely

Once I was seven years old

It was a big big world but we thought we were bigger

Pushing each other to the limits we were learning quicker

By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor

Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure

Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me

Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely

Once I was eleven years old

I always had that dream like my daddy before me

So I started writing songs I started writing stories

Something about the glory just always seemed to bore me

Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

Once I was 20 years old my story got told

Before the morning sun when life was lonely

Once I was 20 years old

Lukas Graham

I only see my goals I don't believe in failure

Cause I know the smallest voices they can make it major

I got my boys with me at least those in favor

And if we don't meet before I leave I hope I'll see you later

Once I was 20 years old my story got told

I was writing about everything I saw before me

Once I was 20 years old

Soon we'll be 30 years old our songs have been sold

We've traveled around the world and we're still rolling

Soon we'll be 30 years old

I'm still learning about life

My woman brought children for me

So I can sing them all my songs

And I can tell them stories

Most of my boys are with me

Some are still out seeking glory

And some I had to leave behind

My brother I'm still sorry

Soon I'll be 60 years old my daddy got 61

Remember life and then your life becomes a better one

I made the man so happy when I wrote a letter once

I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month

Soon I'll be 60 years old will I think the world is cold

Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me

Soon I'll be 60 years old

Soon I'll be 60 years old will I think the world is cold

Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me

Soon I'll be 60 years old

Once I was seven years old my momma told me

Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely

Once I was seven years old

Once I was seven years old

那年我七岁 妈妈就对我说

去交些朋友 不然你会孤独寂寞

那年我七岁

这个辽阔的大千世界 总以为我们也会变得更加强大

将彼此逼到绝境 我们得以更快的成长

十一岁那年 我吸 喝烈性酒

生活捉襟见肘 我们离家奋斗只为有个稳定收入

十一岁那年 爸爸对我说

给自己找个妻子 否则你会空虚寂寞

那年我十一岁

我常梦想着有朝一日能像爸爸一样成为一个歌手

所以我开始写歌 开始写不同的故事

曾经的光辉岁月 对我来说也已厌倦

因为只有那些我真正爱的人才真的懂我

二十岁那年 我的故事广为流传

黎明还未照耀前 孤独的我无人相伴

那年我二十岁

我一心实现梦想 从不相信失败

因为我知道蝼蚁也能成就不朽

我找到一群志同道合的伙伴

如果我离开前 我们无缘碰面 就让我们后会有期

二十岁那年 我的故事广为流传

我写下每一个亲眼所见的故事

那年我二十岁

很快我们三十而立 我们的歌也是人尽皆知

我们游遍世界 我们不曾止步

很快我们就三十了

我依旧在领悟人生真谛

爱人为我生了几个孩子

所以我可以为他们唱我的歌

我可以为他们讲我的故事

昔日兄弟仍跟有联络

有些仍在追名逐利

有些已被我遗忘脑海

兄弟们 我仍心怀歉意

很快我就年过花甲 而我父亲只活到了61岁

时刻感恩 生活就会更加美好

又一次给老爸写信 他高兴不已

我希望我的孩子偶尔也来看望一下我

很快我将年逾六十 不知是否还会觉得人世冷漠

还是会拥有一群温暖我心的孩子

很快我将年逾六十

很快我将年逾六十 不知是否还会觉得人世冷漠

还是拥有一群温暖我心的孩子

很快我将年逾六十

那年我七岁 妈妈就对我说

去交些朋友 不然你会孤独寂寞

那年我七岁

总角之宴 言笑晏晏
