In December, Combs told PEOPLE that “Fast Car” reminded him of his father, Chester Combs.
去年12月,庫姆斯告訴《人物》雜志,《極速賽車》讓他想起了父親切斯特·庫姆斯。
"When I was 5 years old, my dad and I would be in his truck, and he would always play music for me. He had a Tracy Chapman cassette tape, and 'Fast Car' is one of the first songs I remember," the North Carolina native told PEOPLE. "I’ve always been a huge fan of it and think of my dad and our time together when I hear it."
“當我5歲的時候,我和爸爸會在他的卡車里,他總是給我放音樂。他有一盤特蕾西·查普曼的磁帶,《Fast Car》是我記得最早的歌之一,”這位北卡羅來納州人告訴《人物》雜志。“我一直是這首歌的超級粉絲,每當我聽到這首歌,就會想起我爸爸和我們在一起的時光。”
"I always thought it was one of the best songs of all time, so I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised," said Combs. "But there’s nothing like Tracy’s version, so I thought it would just be a nice complement to the original but never really expected mine to take off quite the way it did."
“我一直認為這是有史以來最好的歌曲之一,所以我想我不應該太驚訝,”庫姆斯說。“但沒有什么能比得上特雷西的版本,所以我想這只是對原版的一個很好的補充,但我從來沒有想過我的版本會像它那樣受歡迎。”
In July, Chapman acknowledged the song’s resurgence in popularity, saying she was happy to see that people are still enjoying it over 30 years later.
今年7月,查普曼承認這首歌重新流行起來,她說她很高興看到30多年后人們仍然喜歡這首歌。
"I never expected to find myself on the country charts, but I’m honored to be there,” she told Billboard at the time. "I’m happy for Luke and his success and grateful that new fans have found and embraced 'Fast Car.'"
“我從沒想過自己會出現(xiàn)在鄉(xiāng)村音樂排行榜上,但我很榮幸能在那里,”她當時對《公告牌》說。“我為盧克和他的成功感到高興,也很感激新粉絲發(fā)現(xiàn)并接受了《極速賽車》。”
