love (wip) (commentary)

歌词
love (wip)
I realize a lot of people don't know what "WIP" stands for
我注意到很多人不明白"WIP"代表什么
It stands for "work in progress"
它代表”尚未完成“
It's kind of a producer joke as well
这类似于一个制作人间的玩笑
When us producers send tracks to each other that are not finished
当我们这些制作人将未完成的歌曲发给其他人的时候
We always put "WIP" behind the song
我们总是会在歌名之后加上"WIP"
To let each other know it's still a work in progress
以让对方知道这是一个尚未完成的作品
And I think, you know, love is always a work in progress
我认为,爱情永远是一个未完成的过程
So, that's why I call it "love (wip)"
所以,这就是我称这首歌为"love (wip)"的原因
One night, I got a e-mail from my friend Cassini, a fresh producer who I really love
一天晚上,我的朋友Cassini,一个我很喜欢的年轻制作人,发给我一封邮件
He sent me a folder with all kinds of Lo-Fi tape loops that he recorded
他发给我一个装满他录制的各种各样的低保真的磁带片段的文件夹
And one loop has the really cool guitar harmony in there, played by multiple guitars
其中的一个片段有一个非常优美的由多把吉他弹出的和声
And I figured out a way to play it with just one guitar and, let me see
我试着只用一个吉他将这段旋律弹奏了出来
[Guitar sound]
它听起来就像是这样
And that's sounds kinda like
我觉得非常棒
[Guitar harmony]
对我而言它听起来就像爱情
Very pretty I think
我一定是在一个我对爱情的意义十分纠结的时期写出了"album1"这张专辑
Just sounds like love to me
我对于爱情的意义想了很多,也与很多人谈起这个话题
I definitely wrote "album1" in a time where I was very conflicted about the meaning of love
我慢慢认识到爱情不是一个一成不变的东西,它并不是非黑即白的
And I really thought and talked about it a lot with people
爱情……它对每个人而言都有所不同
I came to realize that love is not a fixed thing, it's not black and white
因为每个人都有着不同的需要
And, ..., and it's different for everyone
这时常会在恋人间产生使人痛苦的距离感
As everyone also has different needs
但也某种意义上对我很有启发
And oftentimes, this creates like distance between lovers, which is painful
在"love (wip)"这首歌的正中间部分
But also very inspiring to me in a way, um
有一段美妙的录音,其中某个人谈着她对于爱情的看法
Right the middle of the song "love (wip)"
这是一段非常珍贵的录音
There's a beautiful recording of someone speaking her mind about love
关于这段录音,我不是很想说太多,但是
It's a very precious recording
我很高兴它能够出现在这首歌里
I don't really want to say too much about it ,but uh
I'm really glad to see it there
