最爛歌曲成暢銷:看時代雜志如何毒舌點評腦殘歌

   13歲美國女孩Rebecca Black新單曲Black遭到了評論界的狂批，被認為達到了腦殘歌曲的新境界（a whole new level of bad）。下面是引自Time的一篇評論，來看看究竟這首歌腦殘在哪里吧：

   Amid all the real news, you might just have heard about the Internet's other weekend obsession: Rebecca Black and her hilariously dreadful video for "Friday".
   一個星期各種重大新聞，不過除了這些，你肯定也知道13歲的Rebecca Black那首新MV Friday，真是太腦殘了！

   What makes this song and video so bad? Rebecca Black is an innocent-looking teen with a Selena Gomez-esque look. And "Friday" seems like a catchy pop song about a teenage girl's excitement over the weekend, which is pretty standard teen pop fare and not exactly a place you'd look for profound lyrics. But once you listen to the lyrics, you start to realize what a train wreck we're really dealing with.
   為什么說這首歌和這支MV很腦殘呢？Rebecca也就是一個13歲的孩子，長得有點像Selena Gomez，這首Friday唱的不過是小女孩對周末的期待和興奮之情，反正不指望這樣的歌能有什么深刻的內(nèi)涵了，但是你真的仔細去聽歌詞的話，絕對會驚呼一聲：我去！這什么玩意啊！

   For starters, there's the opening verse, which is just a straight up narration of what Rebecca's morning routine consists of ("Gotta get down to the bus stop/ Gotta catch my bus/ I see my friends"). Then there's Rebecca's apparent obsession with choosing a spot in the car, which also adds the song's riveting central conflict ("Kicking in the front seat/Sitting in the back seat/ Gotta make my mind up/ Which seat can I take?"). But the song's lowest point (albeit its most hilarious) is when Rebecca literally just sings the days of the week ("Tomorrow is Saturday/ And Sunday comes afterwards").
   這首歌開頭唱的是早晨的各種瑣事：要起床啦趕公交啊~公交站上遇到了朋友們；然后開始糾結(jié)是不是要上朋友的車：到底是坐在前面呢還是坐在后面呢？嗯要好好決定啊，到底坐哪里？最搞笑也最不可理喻的地方就是她開始唱：明天是星期六，后天就是星期天。

   Yikes! Clearly, we're dealing with a whole new level of bad. According to Black Book, the song comes from a company called Ark Music Factory, which is based in L.A. and seems to specialize in teen girl pop music--their website has a whole roster of laughably bad teen pop videos.
   這是何等境界的腦殘??！據(jù)說這首歌由一家名為Ark Music Factory的廠牌提供，專門制造少女流行音樂的，他們的網(wǎng)站上全是很腦殘的MV視頻。

   It's not apparent if "Friday" was intended to be a parody of a pop song or not (we doubt it, though we really hope it was). After all, the video has already been viewed more than 2 million times; it's out there and it's a joke, whether that's how it was intended or not. And seeing how it's available as a ringtone and soon to be available on iTunes, we don't see it going away anytime soon. Sure, Rebecca Black won't be the next Miley Cyrus (though that's not a bad thing) but she could have a future in comedy.
   真希望這首歌只是對流行音樂的一個反諷，不過我們對此表示深切懷疑。不管怎么說這首歌現(xiàn)在紅了，MV的觀看量超過兩百萬，成為手機彩鈴音樂，而且itunes上馬上就會有得下了?？梢钥隙ǖ氖荝ebecca不會成為下一個Miley Cyrus，她倒是可以考慮往諧星的方向發(fā)展。
