下面是查字典留学网托福频道整理的托福词汇:翻唱to cover,欢迎阅读。
不知从何时起,地球人忽然意识到,翻唱竟然成了一种时尚。如何表达翻唱这一时髦词汇,看下面一段有关巧克力美人碧昂丝的相关报道:
Beyonce Knowles could have a lawsuit on her hands relating to a coverversion of a Des'ree track.
The British singer claims that Beyonce did not have her full permission to record a cover of her track 'I'm Kissing You'. The song appeared on Beyonce's last album B'Day, under the title 'Still In Love (I'm Kissing You)'.
报道说,碧昂丝可能会因翻唱黛丝瑞名曲I''m kissing you而吃上官司。黛丝瑞声称,碧昂丝在未得到她本人完全同意的前提下,擅自翻唱了她为电影《罗密欧与茱丽叶》所演唱的抒情名曲I'm kissing you。碧昂丝的翻唱曲目Still in love目前被收录在她的上张专辑B'Day里面。
由报道可知,cover (version/song)指的就是翻唱(版/曲目)。翻唱的歌可以借用介词from或of,如a cover (version) of /from Secret Garden's You raise me up。
此外,cover也可做动词。
值得一提的是,如果某乐队因专门模仿某个经典乐队而得名,我们称它为a tribute band(翻唱乐队/专门模仿已经经典乐队的乐队)。
