驻英记者金泉：英超球迷是如何骂人的？
作为一项有着激烈身体对抗的体育运动,足球赛场上总是不乏山呼海啸般的歌声和骂声,这些也都是主场优势的不可或缺的一部分。相对于国内球迷更偏爱的直白国骂“XX傻逼”,欧洲球迷则展现了更多的艺术细胞,他们更热衷于把脏话编在歌曲中。当你身在欧洲的足球比赛现场,来自观众席震耳欲聋的歌声能让人瞬间汗毛竖起,热血澎湃。即使是透过屏幕观看比赛,球迷的歌声也是清晰可辨。这种在赛场上的球迷歌曲就是football chants。
作为现代足球的发源地,经过100多年的发展,足球已经浸透到英国社会的各个角落。足球在英国与其说是体育运动,不如说是一种体育文化。所以在这个球迷文化底蕴深厚的国家超级联赛中,Football chants得到了充分的发扬光大。Football chants是观众参与到比赛的重要形式,除了能够给主队打气,鼓励球员,同时也可以打击对手士气,嘲讽对方球迷,增加球场内的火药味。Football chants从歌颂类型的队歌级金曲到阴损至极的嘲讽歌曲,应有尽有。其曲目来源非常之广泛,包括当下流行的新歌,经典音乐,甚至还有儿歌。只要是受众广的,人人都能哼两句的歌都会被拿来做football chants. 另外,随着新球员或新教练的加入,还会有新的football chants诞生。但听多了之后就会发现,很多Fan Chants其实都是同一个调子或者节奏,只是换了个词儿而已。
一般来说,每个英超球队主场都会有一片死忠球迷区域,比如老特拉福德的西看台,以及安菲尔德的KOP看台等等。球场内的football chants一般也都是从这一片发起,然后渐渐感染全场,如同蝴蝶效应般引起一场大合唱。
下面是几首比较经典的Football Chants,大多改编自名曲。比如曼联的主打歌(all time anthem) “United Road Take Me Home”就改编自”Country Road Take Me Home”。
1: 曼联 – “United Road Take Me Home”
歌词: Take me home, United road,
To a place that I belong,
To Old Trafford, to see United,
Take me home, United road.
2: 切尔西 - The Blue Flag
歌词: Flying high, up in the sky,
We'll keep the blue flag flying high,
From Stamford Bridge to Wembley
We'll keep the blue flag flying high.
3. 利物浦 - You’ll Never Walk Along
歌词: Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown,
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never walk alone,
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never walk alone.
4. 阿森纳 – We Love You Arsenal
歌词: We love you Arsenal, we do,
We love you Arsenal, we do,
We love you Arsenal, we do,
Oh Arsenal we love you!
5. 西汉姆联 - I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles
歌词: I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air,
They fly so high,
They reach the sky,
Then like my dream, they fade and die!
Fortunes always hiding,
I've looked every where,
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air!
United! (Clapping),
United! (Clapping).
除了用来鼓舞队员的Football Chants,观众席中还时常会响起另一种有趣的歌胜,那就是挑衅对手的歌了,内容从对方球队主教练到球员甚至还会嘲讽对方球迷,有点像小学生编的骂人歌一样,有些幼稚但这也是足球比赛中非常有趣的一部分。对于一些同城死敌或者常年的竞争对手,球迷们都是有给其特殊待遇,甚至还有专用曲目。比如曼联球迷有一首嘲笑曼城在2014年11月对阵莫斯科中央陆军的比赛中为提高上座率推出球票买一送一的活动的歌“Buy One, Get One Free At Man City”
歌词: If you go down to Man City
You'll buy one, get one free,
Buy one, get one free,
Buy one, get one free.
If you go down to Man City,
You'll buy one, get one free,
You'll buy one, get one freeeeeeeeeee...
而财大气粗的曼城也有一首有趣的歌叫做“We'll Buy Your Club”
歌词: We'll buy your club,
And we'll burn it down,
We'll buy your club,
And we'll burn it down...
总而言之,football chants是球迷文化中非常好玩的一部分,还不快学起来加入观众席唱歌的大军~
