Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell (영화 CODA 중에서)

영화나 게임, 책의 이야기를 통해 한 노래를 사랑하게 되는 순간은 언제나 행복하다. 

오랜만에 집에서 엉엉 오열하게 만들었던 영화 Coda의 한 순간이 그랬다. 

 

[가사/해석/번역] Both Sides Now - 에밀리아 존스 | 영화 '코다(CODA, 2021)' OST

 

Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

 

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would've done
But clouds got in my way

 

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions, I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

 

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancin' way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

 

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughin' when you go

And if you care, don't let them know

Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions, I recall
I really don't know love at all

 

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

 

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well, something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day

 

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions, I recall
I really don't know life at all

 

I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions, I recall
I really don't know life at all

 

CODA Actress Emilia Jones Talks About Learning How to Sing and do Sign Language | How I Did It

아홉달의 트레이닝으로 수화와 노래를 동시에 이렇게까지 할 수 있다...??!!

 

저 씬을 촬영하는 중에 가족(역할의 배우)들을 올려다 보고 이제 촬영이 끝나서 헤어지게 될 것이란 생각에 슬퍼져서 감정적이 되는 바람에 멜로디를 잊고 노래를 망쳐버렸다고 한다. -> 그리고 당연하게도(?) 감독은 그 테이크를 골랐다는 비하인드 스토리. 

 

 

+ 제목의 뜻이 당연히 음악 용어 '코다'인줄 알았는데 
알고보니 "Children Of Deaf Adults"의 약자로, 농인 부모 밑에서 자란 청인 자녀를 의미한다고 한다. 중의적인 의미로 사용했을 것 같기도 하다.
