Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word |
Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest WordTALKING TO ELTON JOHN*
Do you miss doing the ordinary things in life?
I like plodding round the kitchen doing the things everybody else does. I love going to the supermarket to do the shopping. I come back with far more stuff than I need. When I am on holiday in St. Tropez, I love to get up at six in the morning to get the fresh bread. People often see me wheeling my trolley round the supermarkets in the town.
Do you mind being recognized?
I've tried going out in disguise, but in the end most people recognize me. Ninety-nine per cent are very pleasant, very polite. But it's frustrating if you get out of bed on the wrong side — and you do some days — and someone asks you for an autograph and they haven't got a pen or a piece of paper. But I enjoy my popularity; I don't see the point in being a recluse.
You once said that you're a bit of a loner.
Yeah, I always have been. By that I don't mean that I'm lonely. It's just that I like to be my own boss all the time. Don't confuse that with being lonely because I'm not. I've lots of great friends around me. But I'm terribly set in my ways and, at my age, it's very hard to change. I don't particularly want to, either. Being successful has given me the onfidence to do things I wouldn't have had the courage to do otherwise. But I still retain that shyness when I first meet people. I'm never going to get rid of that.
You like your food, don't you?
I'm one of those people who only has to look at a doughnut and I immediately put on two pounds without even eating it. I've always had a problem with my weight. It doesn't bother me too much, although I get depressed when I'm very overweight. I dieted once and I became so obsessed that I nearly made myself ill. But I'm happy with the way I am at the moment. If you exercise at least three or four times a week and play tennis, then it's no problem, but you have to keep at it.
Do you follow any special fitness regime?
When I get up in the morning, I go on this exercise machine I've got and walk four or five miles in an hour. That burns off the calories for the rest of the day. When I'm on tour, I eat three meals a day and don't snack. I can't eat before or after a show so that helps. It's when I'm at home-the worst thing is the fridge and snacking. I'm a terrible snacker. I'm a big bread fan and I love curry.
Do you think you will still be touring and making records in another ten years' time?
I can't keep touring and making records for the rest of my life — I've got to try something different now and then. One thing I am interested in doing is writing a musical.
So do you think we will see you on stage in your own musical one day?
I doubt it. I'm not interested in going into a theatre and performing every night. You may find that strange but if you're on tour, you're changing cities. I played at the Hammersmith Odeon once for fourteen nights and by the end of it I was going crazy. It was like going to the office. So people who actually appear in plays and musicals for two to three years have my greatest sympathy and admiration. I never consider what I do as work.
Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
Elton John
What have I got to do
To make you love me?
What have I got to do
To make you care?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
And I wake to find that you're not there?
What do I do to make you want me?
What have I got to do to be heard?
What do I say when it's all over?
And sorry seems to be the hardest word.
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd.
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over?
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word.
What do I do to make you love me?
What have I got to do to be heard?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
What have I got to do?
What have I got to do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word?

Так тяжело сказать «прости»
Перевод И. Мостицкого
Что должен сделать я,
Чтобы заставить тебя полюбить меня?
Что должен сделать я,
Чтобы заставить тебя проявить ко мне интерес?
Что делать, когда в меня ударяет молния
И я просыпаюсь, чтобы увидеть, что тебя со мною нет?
Что сделать, чтобы заставить тебя захотеть меня?
Что должен сделать я, чтобы меня услышали?
Что говорить, когда всё кончено
И так тяжело сказать «прости»?
Грустно, так грустно ...
Это такая грустная-грустная история,
И она становится всё более нелепой.
Грустно, так грустно ...
Почему не можем мы об этом поговорить?
Ох, и кажется мне, что
Так тяжело сказать «прости»!
Что сделать мне, чтобы заставить тебя полюбить меня?
Что должен сделать я, чтобы меня услышали?
Что делать, когда в меня ударяет молния?
Что должен сделать я?
Что должен делать я,
Когда так тяжело сказать «прости»?
