背景
她用她的歌聲講述著學校里種種情景,球場、啦啦隊、角落裡的座位、舞會上的美麗邂逅……這些熟悉的場景和平常的故事被她用聲音演繹得無比真切。出自其中的The Best Day是一首寫給母親的溫馨讚歌,與專輯中其它抒發小女生感情的歌曲相比,The Best Day顯得尤為獨特和感人。
這首歌是獻Taylor母親Andrea的,是Taylor在錄製第二張專輯Fearless的時候想對母親表達自己的愛和感恩。這首歌是以講故事的方式敘述的。剛開始的時候她說到她當時才5歲,那個時候的她什麼都不懂,只覺得母親是世界上最勇敢的人。後來到了13歲,她被同學排擠,很委屈,但她的母親對她格外溫和,同她談心……這就是"the best day"的事。她以樹木的季節變更來表示她的成長,而到歌曲最後表示她現在長大了,也懂得了很多道理,但是有一點沒有變化,就是她永遠愛她的母親,永遠感激她。
在Taylor十二三歲的時候,因為對
鄉村音樂的執著,又成為當地的小明星,受到學校同學的排擠,她感覺很委屈很孤單,她的媽媽帶著她遠離他們住的小鎮去散散心。
當然在歌中Taylor也表達了對爸爸和弟弟的熱愛,說我有個很棒的爸爸,他的力量讓我變得更加強壯。上帝親吻我的小弟弟,他哪方面都比我強。
這首歌是Taylor瞞著媽媽錄的,MV也是Taylor翻遍小時候的家庭錄像自己剪輯的,為了給媽媽一個驚喜。當Taylor媽媽第一次聽到這首歌,看到家庭錄像的時候都沒有反應過來那是Taylor在為她唱歌。
歌詞
英文歌詞
I'm five years old it's getting cold I've got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides look now the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
I know that you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today
I'm thirteen now and don't know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop till I forgot all their names
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
But I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel ok
But I know I had the best day with you today
I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out he's better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
and I had the best days with you
There is a video I found from back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talking to me
It's the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
Daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
Now I know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shineand I didn't know if you knew
So I'm taking this chance to say that I had the best day with you today
