Where is the love by Black Eyed Peas
What's wrong with the world, mama?
People livin like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world's addicted1 to the drama
Only attracted to the things that'll bring the trauma2
Overseas ya we tryin to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin
In the U.S.A, the big C.I.A
The bloods & the crips, and the KKK
But if you only got love for your own ways
Then you only leave space to discriminate3
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate, then you're bound to get irate4
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man ya gotta have love, this'll set us straight
Take control of your mind and meditate5
Let your soul gravitate, to the love ya'll
Chorus-
People killin
People dyin
Children hurt and
Women cryin
Will you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
Father father father, help us
Send some guidance from above
These people got me got me questionin
Where is the love?(love)
Where is the love?(the love)
Where is the love?(the love)
Where is the love, the love, my love
It just ain't the same
Old ways have changed
New days are strange, is world insane?
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin bombs
Chemical gasses fillin lungs of little ones
With ongoin sufferin, as the youth die young
So ask yourself, is the lovin really gone
So I can ask myself, really what is going wrong
With this world that we livin in, people keep on givin in
Making wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends6
Not respectin each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin on but the reason's under cover
The truth is kept secret, and swept under the rug
If you never know truth, then you never know love
Where’s the love ya'll? (i don't know)
Where’s the truth ya'll? (i don't know)
And where's the love ya'll?
People killin
People dyin
Children hurt and
Women cryin
Will you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
Father father father, help us
Send some guidance from above
These people got me got me questionin
Where is the love?(love)
Where is the love?(the love)
Where is the love?(the love)
Where is the love, the love, my love
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting older, ya'll people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin
Selfishness got us followin the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria7
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Whatever happened to the values of humanity?
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love we spreadin animosity
Lack of understandin leading us away from unity8
That’s the reason why sometimes I'm feelin under
That’s the reason why sometimes I'm feelin down
It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin under
gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
now ask yourself
People killin
People dyin
Children hurt and
Women cryin
Will you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
Father father father, help us
Send some guidance from above
These people got me got me questionin
Where is the love?(love)
Where is the love?(the love)
Where is the love?(the love)
Where is the love, the love, my love
中文歌词
这个世界怎么了,妈妈?
人们就像没有教养的孩子
整个世界都已经疯狂
大家都在迷恋创伤
在海外我们竭力制止恐怖
恐怖分子却就在我们生活的地方
美利坚合众国,大中央情报局
流血 死亡 还有 KKK
如果你已经用自己的方式得到了爱
那么留下空间就只能是歧视
歧视产生仇恨
当你努力的恨
你肯定会疯狂的发怒
恭喜你,你已经发疯
这就是生气的结果
我们如果得到了爱就会平静下来
采取措施控制我们的心灵和思想
就让我们的灵魂向爱飞翔
(合唱)
人们在互相残杀
人们时时面对死亡
孩子受到了伤害
妇女不断的哭泣
你还要实施你鼓吹的东西
还是戴上另外一张面具?
上帝上帝上帝 救救我们吧
给我们一些指导
我们实在是看不懂现在的人
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里,爱,我的爱
世界早已经不同
旧方式早已改变
新的时代很奇怪,
怀疑世界已发疯
如果爱与和平非常强大
为什么一丝爱也不拥有
国家间相互战争
化学气体残存在孩子的肺部
带着天生的缺陷降生
孩子们早早死亡
问问我们自己,这就是爱?
我在问我自己,这个世界哪里不对
在我们活着的这个世界上
人们不断地妥协失败
做着错误的决定,
仅仅关心着自己的红利
人们之间不互相尊重
相互否认你的兄弟
战争是在继续
但原因的实在不知
真理永远是个秘密
永远在深厚的地层以下
如果你永远不懂真理的话,
那你永远不懂爱
爱在哪里 ? (我不知道)
真相在哪里 ? (我不知道)
告诉我,爱在哪里?
(合唱)
人们在互相残杀
人们时时面对死亡
孩子受到了伤害
妇女不断的哭泣
你还要实施你鼓吹的东西
还是戴上另外一张面具?
上帝上帝上帝 救救我们吧
给我们一些指导
我们实在是看不懂现在的人
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里,爱,我的爱
我感觉世界的重量在我的肩膀上
我越来越老, 人们越来越冷
大多数人只在乎怎样赚钱
自私让我们走上了歧途
错误信息总是出现在媒体
负面是主要标准
感染年轻人的灵魂
速度比细菌还快
孩子们模仿他们在电影里看到的东西
人们的价值观怎么了?
公正和平等怎么了?
我们不去传播爱心,
却在扩展敌对
缺乏相互理解
让我们远离团结
这就是为什么有时我感觉低落
这就是为什么有时我感觉忧郁
毫无疑问这就是为什么我有时感觉低落
我要保持自己的信仰
直到我找到爱
现在想想你自己
(合唱)
人们在互相残杀
人们时时面对死亡
孩子受到了伤害
妇女不断的哭泣
你还要实施你鼓吹的东西
还是戴上另外一张面具?
上帝上帝上帝 救救我们吧
给我们一些指导
我们实在是看不懂现在的人
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里?去爱……
爱在哪里,爱,我的爱
歌手介绍
Black Eyed Peas(黑眼豆豆)来自洛杉机,是一支融合了灵魂乐、爵士乐与拉丁节奏与现场演唱等多种风格的嘻哈队伍,由William、Apldeap、Taboo三位团员组成。
他们在1998年与2000年先后发行了《Behind The Front》与《Bridging The Gap》等两张专辑,获得音乐评论网站All Music Guide四颗星的喝彩,他们的音乐风格跨越多种类型音乐,采集了拉丁、印地安、亚洲民族旋律,这种“音乐地球村”的创作理念深获音乐人肯定。
在他们2003年的大碟《Elephunk疯克大象》里,以往广受瞩目的背景伴唱Kim Hill被Fergie取代,Fergie的表现也很出众,后来担任了Black Eyed Peas的主唱。
从以上两张专辑可以看出,Black Eyed Peas并非一个单纯的唱说组合,他们将多种音乐元素融合,创作出自己独特的hit-hop风格,构成了非商业性嘻哈音乐的中流砥柱。
听我之我见
这是黑眼豆豆与Justin Timberlake合作的一首歌《Where Is The Love》,这首歌的旋律非常好听,尤其是用音箱放大音量听的时候更有感觉。在优美的旋律后面就是深深的哲理,是啊,爱在哪里?这个世界早已经面目全非,人们之间相互冷漠。世界变成这样,到底是谁的过错?这首歌虽然在批评社会现实,却不消极,正如在歌里唱的那样“gotta keep my faith alive till love is found”。让我们坚信世界的美好,坚持真善美,去寻找那早已失落的爱吧!
