14 Queen - Too Much Love Kill You
Too Much Love Will Kill You，这首歌是在88年左右由Brian创作和录制的，最早的发行是Brian作为vocal的solo single，是一首top 10的hit。在88年的录音里，Freddie的版本是作为一个demo存在的。很多人以为这首歌是隐射了Freddie，但是事实上这首歌是Brian从严重的几乎自杀的忧郁症状中走出来之后，写给他的第一个太太的。这首歌给我最初的感觉很想关注人的成长经历，too much love will kill you很像是中国所说的不要溺爱孩子的意思，但听过歌曲，其中的歌词又比溺爱深刻很多而且不同。而了解了歌曲的创作背景后，这首歌更确切的说应该是一个男人的成长经历。
歌曲歌词:
I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
Oh, I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'Cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you - every time
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
Ooh, how would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Oh yes,
Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you - every time
Yes, too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
中文歌词
现在的我依如往日，心力憔悴
痛苦的泪水如雨点般落在我的身上
家，在远方
我只有孤独面对
久久的面对这离家的氛围
从来没有人告诉我这个真相
成长和生活将是一场挣扎
在我混乱的思绪中
我一直在努力反思
我到底错在哪了呢？
滥爱会毁了你
如果你无法下定决心
你将伤害你爱的人
你将把爱抛在身后
你已经步入灾难的深渊
因为你从来没有发现
滥爱会毁了你
每一次
我活在过去的阴影之中
找不到解脱的方法
我曾给你期望
现在却一再让你失望
如果你是我，你会怎样？
难道你不知道你无从选择？
但你不会是我
无论怎样做，我注定会失败
滥爱会毁了你
我敢肯定
爱会耗尽你
爱会让你乞求，爱会让你尖叫，爱会让你失尽颜面
那痛苦让你发狂
你是自作自受
滥爱会毁了你
每一次
滥爱会毁了你
你会发现生活只是一个谎言
没错，你无法承受太多的爱
而你将永远不知道因原
你只能放弃生命，你只能出卖灵魂
但该来的还是会来
滥爱会毁了你
这就是结局！
