My brothers and sisters, on behalf of the 23 million people of Zaire,
向各位表达最深切的感激和赞扬之情
I wish to extend their deepest gratitude and appreciation.
我要感谢你们 让灵歌♥落叶归根的梦想
And I wanna thank you for making a dream come true,
有天变成现实
that one day the beat would return to the roots.
你们将在金沙萨听到 人生中最美妙的音乐

他们在那里的演奏 会使你感动流泪
They playin’ some grooves down there just make you cry.
还会有舞蹈和狂欢

“扎伊尔74″音乐节 一场灵魂盛宴
Zaire74, a spiritual commitment.
谢谢大家
Thank you.
噢 上帝啊 又绕了一次
Oh, Christ, move round again.
你要我们干什么?
Whaddya want from us?
问一句 有什么航♥班♥的最新消息没?
So, what’s the latest on the aircraft, by the way?
嗯 Alan呼叫总部
Um, Alan to base.
Alan呼叫总部
Alan to base.
我们下午见面之后 你有什么新消息没?
Did you get anything after we met this afternoon?
– 关于离开马德里的时间? – 噢 你知道我们怎么了吗?
– On the time it left Madrid? – Oh, you know what we got?
我们在音乐节开始时间上 有了巨大分歧
We got a huge discrepancy on the day that this festival starts,
嗯 因为Likuku说 自己刚从总统办那里过来
um, cos Likuku said he had just come from the presidency himself,
总统办通知了所有的报纸
the presidency has notified every newspaper
所有的电视台和广播电台
and all the TV and radio stations,
说音乐节周六开始 不是周五晚上
that it is on Saturday that it starts, not Friday night.
你说不是 我说…
You’re saying no and I said…
不 票印的是周五 一直都是周五的
No, tickets are printed for Friday, it’s always been Friday,
合同上说的是周五 六个月前就签了合同了
in the contract it’s Friday, the contract was signed six months ago.
但是他说总统办改了日子
But he said the presidency has moved it.
但是他今天早上还告诉我 完全按计划来的
But he told me this morning that it was going on absolutely as scheduled.
– 谁说的? Shimpupu? – Shimpupu
– Who did? Shimpupu? – Shimpupu.
谁来为艺人付那些该死的钱? 那些额外的费用?
Who’s going to pick up the bloody tab for the artists? The extra tab?
合同上写的是 他们一直待到25号♥
They are contracted to be here until the 25th.
是的 问题是他们在20号♥ 21号♥或者22号♥表演 是吗?
Yeah, their problem says they perform on 20, 21, or 22, right?
我理解…
I understand that…
所以如果我们要求他们23号♥表演 他们会说合同里没写
So if we ask them to perform on 23, they’ll say it’s outside my contract
他们肯定要为此狠狠敲我们竹杠
and they’ll bloody well rip us off for an extra fee.
我们不了解 但我觉得多一天时间 演出会更好
We don’t know that. I’d like the extra day for better show.
我的经验告诉我 当你要他们做的事
My experience is the moment you ask them to do anything
只要有一块钱合同里没写 他们都得打起来
that’s one dollar outside of their contract, they are going to bloody well fight.
每多一天 我得付200个人的住宿费 花销…
Every further day, I’ve got 200 people, hotel bills, expenses…
但我们还是比计划提前了两天
We’re still coming in two days ahead of schedule, though.
– 无论如何… – 如果我们能提前三天 就更好了
– Anyway… – If we can make it three, all the better.
我们得权衡一下 这完全取决于他们
We got a weight it all. I figure it’s up to them.
如果我们能让他们同意
If we can get them to agree to it,
就能卖♥♥掉足够多的票 这很重要
we’ve got enough ticket sales, which is important.
看着办吧 我可不喜欢像这样的最后变卦
We’ll see. I’m not happy about late changes like this.
尤其是当状况像现在一样混乱的时候
Particularly when the situation is as confused as it is now.
Alan呼叫总部
Alan to base.
让我们有请独一无二的James Brown!
Let’s bring up the one and only James Brown!
你干吗这样叫我?
Why you wanna do this to me?
我这样 是因为你先这样叫自己的!
I got to do it to ya cos you did it to yourself!
当之无愧! James Brown!
You earned it! James Brown!
行了 伙计
Oh, man.
女士们先生们

现在请大家再一次把热烈的掌声
right now l’d like to give another special round of applause

我只想说 这么久以来
The only thing I got to say is that it’s been a long time comin’,
就四首歌♥想和大家分享
and these are just four things I’d like to leave with you.
四份小小心意
Four small things.
它冷漠 却到过地狱
It’s cold-blooded but it’s been hell.
如今血债血偿
Now here’s the payback,
记着只要你活着 老爹就不会置之不理(包含四首歌♥名)
and remember as long as you live, Papa don’t take no mess.
– 不 不 – 舞台布景看起来还没弄好啊
– No, no. – This stage doesn’t look complete.
前台还有旗帜环绕等等
There’s bunting that goes across the front and so on.
还有很多装饰没上 所以看起来光秃秃的 但…
There’s a lot of dressing that makes it look naked without it, but…
– 一切都准备着手做了吗? – 后台还要铺板材
– All that’s prepared and in-hand? – There is planking on the backside.
还有些事要做 但…
There’s several more things they’re gonna do, but…
他们向我保证 最迟明天下午完工
They guarantee me they’ll have it done by late tomorrow afternoon.
还有别的问题吗?
Any other problems?

这儿的苍蝇 粮少饥多 飞得就快了

他们有自己的机场和旅店
And they got their own airports and hotels
还有小巧的房♥屋 街道 夜店 他们并没那么糟

不是玩笑 纽约比这儿更像丛林
No kidding, New York is more of a jungle than here.

Dying with dope and always somebody being raped or somebody being robbed
或有人在屋顶枪击12人
or somebody on the rooftop shooting twelve people.
有人闯入银行 朝出纳开了枪 又捅了办事员
A man goes in the bank and shoots the teller and stabs the bank official
然后冲出来 自己在街上挨了一枪
and he runs out and he gets shot down the street.
