懂王入阵曲：《Y.M.C.A》

前段时间懂王竞选这个歌真的又火了一段时间，大家戏称为《懂王入阵曲》。其实这个歌的历史和所承载的东西要远比懂王和竞选深厚。这里做个小科普也是向大家推荐一下这首歌。

首先，大家知道YMCA是什么的缩写吗？YMCA（Young Men's Christian Association，基督教青年会）是一个历史悠久的国际性非营利组织，成立于1844年的英国伦敦，由乔治·威廉（George Williams）创立。先别看到这个名字或者历史就觉得这个是一个宗教性很强的保守机构。其最初目标是改善工业化社会中年轻男性的精神和身体健康状况，后逐渐扩展为面向全年龄层、性别和宗教背景的多元化公益组织。在美国，基督教青年会（YMCA）于19世纪80年代开始建造单人住宿设施，为从农村迁入城市寻找工作的人们提供住所。到20世纪70年代，这种设施的居住者逐渐变为了无家可归者和面临生活问题的年轻人。

而这首歌曲《Y.M.C.A.》是由美国迪斯科组合村民（Village People）在1978年录制的一首歌曲，是其专辑《Cruisin'》中的唯一一支单曲。该曲在1979年初登上美国榜单第二，并同时在英国榜上获得冠军，这成为该乐团的最热门歌曲。虽然这属于一首向基督教青年会致敬的歌曲，歌曲《Y.M.C.A.》的歌词内容与组织实际关联不大。
事实上，与传统的宗教理念不同，这首歌被广泛认为是写给同性恋的歌曲（想不到吧，右翼势力用基佬励志歌竞选），但歌曲作者则表示它是一首适合所有人的歌曲，是为所有人创作的快乐之歌。最后说一句，这个歌旋律和歌词都很振奋人心，也确实对青年男性的关爱显露无疑，被认为是基佬之歌绝对不是冤枉。我想作者想表达的意思是这是给所有人激励和快乐的，基佬之歌。

Young man there's no need to feel down
I said young man pick yourself off the ground
I said young man cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
Young man there's a place you can go
I said young man when you're short on your dough
You can stay there and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
They have everything for you men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
You can get yourself cleaned
You can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
Young man are you listening to me
I said young man what do you want to be
I said young man you can make real your dreams
But you got to know this one thing
No man does it all by himself
I said young man put your pride on the shelf
And just go there to the Y M C A
I'm sure they can help you today
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
They have everything for you men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
You can get yourself cleaned
You can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
Young man I was once in your shoes
I said I was down and out with the blues
I felt no man cared if I were alive
I felt the whole world was so tight
That's when someone came up to me
And said young man take a walk up the street
There's a place there called the Y M C A
They can start you back on your way
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
They have everything for you men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
Y M C A It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
Young man young man there's no need to feel down
Young man young man get yourself off the ground
Y M C A It's fun to stay at the Y M C A
Young man young man are you listening to me
Young man young man what do you wanna be
Y M C A you'll find it at the Y M C A
No man young man does it all by himself
Young man young man put your pride on the shelf
Y M C A and just go to the Y M C A
Young man young man I was once in your shoes
Young man young man I was out with the blues

乡下人乐队的代表作之一惹
本可感觉他们乐队就是从这一个曲子开始发扬了自己的演唱风格
即：
XXX！（合唱） XXXXXX（领唱）
的格式
歌词大多也都素积极向上的内容，
旋律也很阳光。
但很多人不知道的素，
其实这个乐队的绝大多数歌曲都有映射通讯录在时代背景下的处境惹，
感兴趣还可以看看乡下人乐队的另一首歌曲，
同样很精彩厚。
