[ 英语参考 ]
LA on a Saturday night in the summer
洛杉矶盛夏星期六的夜晚
Sun down and they all come out
骄阳退场 俊男美女出动
Lamborghinis and their rented Hummers
驾驶着兰博基尼和租的悍马宝车
The party’s on so they’re heading downtown
他们要去市中心 狂欢派对拉开序幕
This is my only fear
我仅有的恐惧便是
That we become
我们会成为
Beautiful people
所谓表面光鲜亮丽的人
Drop top, designer clothes
敞篷豪车 高定服装
Front row at fashion shows
置身时装秀前排
What do you do and who do you know?
但你在做什么?你认识谁?
Let’s leave the party
让我们离开聚会吧
That’s not who we are, we are, we are, we are
我们不该如此
We are not beautiful
我们和这些人格格不入
Inside the world of beautiful people
人们只关注你的身份地位
Champagne and rolled up notes
美酒香槟作伴 巨额钞票傍身
Prenups /priː'nʌp/ and broken homes
冷漠的婚前协议 破碎不堪的家庭
Surrounded but still alone
被灯红酒绿围绕 却仍然孤独
So the music video follows an ordinary couple who are dropped into a world of rich and powerful. However, they don’t feel compelled to fit in with their new surroundings. So they quickly flee that world and head back to their normal life.
But in 2016, Sheeran took a year-long hiatus /haɪ'eɪtəs/ and social media break. During this time, he went out travel and met people, forging person-to-person connections.
