雨点不断落在我头上 Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head

1969年,超经典西部片「虎豹小霸王」开拍,剧组请来已经成为大师级人物的柏特拜克拉负责谱写跟制作,写出了这首「Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head」,并由这位B. J. Thomas主唱,令人意外的是,B.J并不是柏特拜克拉原先属意的主唱者。
最初,拜克拉本来打算要请「歌坛笑匠」雷史蒂芬斯来演唱这首歌曲的,史蒂芬斯看了电影的毛片,也非常喜欢,但是由于当时他自己另有计划,所以婉谢了拜克拉的好意。
不得以之下,拜克拉转而希望请民歌界大受欢迎的鲍布迪伦来演唱。这个时候,向来被公认是拜克拉作品最佳诠释者的黑人女歌手狄昂华韦克(美国著名歌手惠妮休斯顿表姐),向他推荐同门「师弟」B.J。基于提拔同门的出发点,狄昂华韦克把托马斯的「Hooked on a Feeling」拿给拜克拉和他的创作搭档海尔戴维(Hal David)听,建议他们考虑帮他写歌、替他制作。拜克拉相当欣赏他的歌声,于是跟他签下了经纪约,并且答应,假如鲍布迪伦不想演唱「Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head」,就由他来录制。
结果,鲍布迪伦婉拒了邀请,所以B.J.Thomas就这样获得了演唱这首歌曲的机会。
这是一首流传甚广的曲子,在蜘蛛侠、阿甘正传、桌球天王等多部影片中出现,而立顿咖啡等商业品牌也看好其朗朗上口的轻松曲调,纷纷制成广告背景乐。

英文歌词:
       Raindrops keep falling on my head,
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed,
Nothing seems to fit.
Those raindrops are falling on my head;
They keep falling.
So I just did me some talking to the sun,
And I said I didn't like the way
he got things done sleeping on the job.
Those raindrops are falling on my head;
They keep falling.
But there's one thing I know----
The blues1 they send to meet me won't defeat2 me.
It won't be long till happiness3 steps up to greet4 me.
Raindrops keep falling on my head,
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red.
Crying is not for me,
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining.
Because I'm free, nothing's worrying me.
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me.
Raindrops keep falling on my head,
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red.
Crying is not for me,
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining,
Because I'm free, nothing's worrying me.
歌词大意:
       雨点不断落在我头上
雨点不断落在我头上,
就像一个大个子躺在一张小床上,
一切似乎都不对劲,
雨点不断落在我头上,
雨点不断落下来。
于是我对太阳说,
我不喜欢他那样做——
工作时间睡觉。
雨点一直落在我头上,
雨点不断落下来。
但我知道一件事——
他们带给我的忧郁无法把我打倒。
不久快乐就会来到。
雨点不停地落在我头上,
但这并不意味我的眼圈要变红,
我从来就不哭泣,
因为我从不用抱怨阻止下雨,
因为我自由,无忧无虑。
不久快乐就会来到。
雨点不停地落在我头上,
但这并不意味我的眼圈要变红,
我从来就不哭泣,
因为我从不用抱怨阻止下雨,
因为我自由,无忧无虑
