樂(lè)曲內(nèi)容
She is a pyramid
But with him, she's just a grain of sand
This love's too strong
Like mice and men
Squeezing out the life that should be let in
She was a hurricane
But now she's just a gust of wind
She used to set the sails of a thousand ships
Was a force to be reckoned with
She could be a Statue of Liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh
Oh, she used to rule the world, oh
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a pearl
She was unstoppable
M.o.v.e 500米口徑球面射電望遠(yuǎn)鏡 just like an avalanche
But now she's stuck DEEP in cement
Wishing that they never, ever met
She could be a Statue of Liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh
Yeah, she used to rule the world, oh
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a
Do you know that there's a way out, there's a way out
There's a way out, there's a way out?
You don't have to be held down, be held down
Be held down, be held down
'Cause I used to be a shell
Yeah, I let HIM rule my world
My world, oh yeah
But I woke up and grew strong
And I can still go on
And no one can take my pearl
You don't have to be a shell, no
You're the one that rules your world, oh
You are strong and you'll learn
That you can still go on
And you'll always be a, a pearl
She is unstoppable
樂(lè)曲賞析
美國(guó)新晉超人氣歌手凱蒂·佩里全新錄音室大碟《Teenage Dream》2010年8月24日北美首播，而歌曲與以往一樣總是洋溢著濃濃的青春氣息，在舞臺(tái)的造型也多是搖滾風(fēng)格，精妙的減齡裝扮。
這次新專(zhuān)輯《Teenage Dream》沒(méi)有人能否定是一張成功的專(zhuān)輯，新專(zhuān)依然保持了凱蒂·佩里多樣性的風(fēng)格，而制作團(tuán)隊(duì)更是邀請(qǐng)了盡可能能合作的大腕們：Tricky Stewart、Dr. Luke、Rivers Cuomo和 Max Martin ，四位當(dāng)今樂(lè)壇流行音樂(lè)制作人的重新組合，確保了《Teenage Dream》能與蕾哈娜、Lady Gaga 和碧昂絲·諾斯以及所有制作各種各樣的歌曲的明星們競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。就上張專(zhuān)輯而言，《Teenage Dream》比上一張專(zhuān)拍節(jié)再快一點(diǎn)，更能感受到凱蒂·佩里現(xiàn)場(chǎng)舞蹈的活力，仿佛在歌曲的背后看到能與凱蒂夾在舞伴們中間手舞足蹈，我們弄不清楚身上的汗水是你自己的還是你身旁的人的。”
