情不自禁愛上你
September 9, 2018
"Can't Help Falling in Love" is a song recorded by American singer Elvis Presley for the album Blue Hawaii (1961). It was written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore, and George David Weiss. (The melody is based on "Plaisir d'amour", a popular romance composed in 1784 by Jean-Paul-égide Martini).
《情不自禁愛上你》是由美國歌手埃爾維斯·普雷斯利（即貓王）錄制的專輯《藍色夏威夷》（1961）當中的一首歌。它是由Hugo Peretti、Luigi Creatore和George David Weiss創(chuàng)作。（曲子是根據保羅·E·吉德·馬蒂尼于1784創(chuàng)作的一部通俗小說，由普拉西爾·D·阿穆爾改編的。）
"Can't Help Falling in Love" was featured in Presley's 1961 film, Blue Hawaii. During the following four decades, it has been covered by numerous other artists, including Tom Smothers, Swedish pop group A-Teens, and the British reggae group UB40, whose 1993 version topped the U.S. and UK charts.
貓王的這首“情不自禁愛上你”是1961部電影《藍色夏威夷》中的主題曲。在接下來的四十年里，它被許多藝術家所翻唱，包括湯姆·史密斯，瑞典流行樂隊A-青少年，和英國雷鬼樂隊UB40，1993年的版本在美國和英國排行榜上名列前茅。
Elvis Presley's version of the song topped the British charts in 1962. The single is certified Platinum by the RIAA, for US sales in excess of one million copies. In the United States, the song peaked at No. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 behind Joey Dee and the Starliters' "Peppermint Twist" and went to No. 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart for six weeks.
貓王的版本在1962名列英國排行榜首位。該單曲由RIAA認證，美國銷售超過一百萬份。在美國，這首歌在公告牌熱曲100排行榜上，位居第二，僅次于喬伊·迪和斯塔利特夫婦的《薄荷扭轉》，連續(xù)六周蟬聯當代成人排行榜第一名。
During Presley's late 1960s and 1970s live performances, the song was performed as the show's finale. Most notably, it was also sung in the live segment of his 1968 NBC television special, and as the closer for his 1973 Global telecast, Aloha from Hawaii. A version with a faster arrangement was the closing number in Presley's final TV special, Elvis in Concert. "Can't Help Falling in Love" was also the last song he performed live, at his concert in Indianapolis at Market Square Arena on 26 June 1977.
在20世紀60年代和70年代貓王的現場表演中，這首歌經常作為演出的結尾曲上演。最值得一提的是，1968年，他在NBC電視特別節(jié)目的現場直播中也演唱了這首歌，1973年的全球轉播的《夏威夷的阿羅哈》也是作為壓軸曲目。在電視特別節(jié)目《埃爾維斯在音樂會》上，貓王表演了一個節(jié)奏更快的版本，作為結束曲目。1977年6月26日，在印第安納波利斯市場廣場競技場舉行的音樂會上，他演唱的最后一首歌也是《情不自禁愛上你》。
In 2015, the song was included on the If I Can Dream album, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of Presley's birth. The version uses archival voice recordings of Presley and his singers, backed by new orchestral arrangements performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
2015，貓王誕辰第八十周年之際，這首歌被收錄在《如果我可以有夢想》的專輯上。該版本使用貓王和他的歌手的檔案錄音，由皇家愛樂樂團以新編管弦樂曲伴奏。
“Can’t Help Falling In Love”
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
If I can't help falling in love with you
[Chorus]
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 2]
Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
[Chorus]
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 3]
Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
