麦当娜致敬杰克逊演讲-2009

Madonna Ciccone on MTV Video Music Awards 2009 There is no question that Michael Jackson was one of the greatest talents the world has ever known... That when he sang a song at the ripe old age of eight, he could make you feel like an experienced adult was squeezing your heart with his words… That the way he moved had the elegance of Fred Astaire and packed the punch of Muhammad Ali… That his music had an extra layer of inexplicable magic that didn’t just make you wanna dance, but actually made you believe that you could fly, dare to dream, be anything that you wanted to be. Because that is what heroes do, and Michael Jackson was a hero. 【参考译文】 毫无疑问，Michael Jackson是世界上已知的最伟大的天才之一。当他还是个8岁的小孩时，他的歌声已经让人感觉像个饱经沧桑的成人在诉说他的故事，也因此扣人心弦。他的舞台魅力，带着歌舞之王Fred Astaire的优雅，充满着拳王Muhammad Ali的力量。这使他的音乐有一种难以言喻的魔力，让你不仅仅想随之而舞，更令你相信你可以飞翔、敢于梦想，成为任何你想成为的人。因为这就是英雄的影响力！而Michael Jackson就是个英雄！
