"Say Something" is a song by American pop duo A Great Big World from their debut album, Is There Anybody Out There? (2013). Written by the duo members—Ian Axel and Chad King—alongside Mike Campbell, the song was originally recorded by Axel for his solo album This Is the New Year (2011). It was later released as a single by the duo on September 3, 2013, by Epic Records. Following its usage on American reality TV show So You Think You Can Dance, the track gained attention from singer Christina Aguilera, who wanted to collaborate with A Great Big World on the song. Soon afterwards, a re-recorded version of "Say Something" with Aguilera was released on November 4, 2013.
This is a very touching song that can have a lot of meanings. It goes beyond relationships and into something much deeper — the regrets, worries, and significance of separation from a loved one. (我自己特别同意这点,这首歌远远超越了仅仅是爱情。每个人的感受和经历不同,和歌曲的共鸣也各有体会)
Being separated from a good friend, family member, or significant other whether it’s from death, a breakup, or a fall out is one of the most traumatizing experiences we go through in life.
This song will resonate with a lot of people for different reasons. The versatility of the meaning of this song is simply impressive although most people that hear it will reflect on their relationship with a loved one.
歌曲原唱是A Great Big World。歌曲的创作灵感源自A Great Big World成员的心碎经历。他们表示写这首歌对治愈自己的悲伤有帮助。
《Say Something》是美国组合A Great Big World(精彩大世界)和美国女歌手克里斯蒂娜·阿奎莱拉共同演唱的歌曲,由伊恩·阿克塞尔、查德·瓦卡里诺和麦克·坎贝尔谱写,丹·罗默制作,收录在A Great Big World第一张录音室专辑《Is There Anybody Out There?》中,于2013年9月3日由史诗唱片发行。
2013年9月,《舞林争霸》第十季的女冠军艾米·亚基玛伴随原版《Say Something》在节目中跳了一支舞蹈,从而吸引到克里斯蒂娜。于是A Great Big World邀请了克里斯蒂娜加入到了该首歌曲的录制。克里斯蒂娜用了大概两个小时来完成了歌曲的录制。
Say Something A Great Big World Say something, I'm giving up on you I'll be the one, if you want me to Anywhere, I would've followed you Say something, I'm giving up on you And I am feeling so small It was over my head I know nothing at all And I will stumble and fall I'm still learning to love Just starting to crawl Say something, I'm giving up on you I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you Anywhere, I would've followed you Say something, I'm giving up on you And I will swallow my pride You're the one that I love And I'm saying goodbye Say something, I'm giving up on you And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you And anywhere, I would have followed you Ooh, ooh say something, I'm giving up on you Say something, I'm giving up on you Say something

英文歌词:(中文歌词翻译有不同的版本,我觉得还是留给自己感受最好)
Say Something A Great Big World Say something, I'm giving up on you I'll be the one, if you want me toAnywhere, I would've followed you Say something, I'm giving up on you And I am feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all And I will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl Say something, I'm giving up on you I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you Anywhere, I would've followed you Say something, I'm giving up on you And I will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye Say something, I'm giving up on you And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you And anywhere, I would have followed you
Ooh, ooh say something, I'm giving up on you Say something, I'm giving up on you Say something
