鑽石是女孩的摯友

〈鑽石是女孩的摯友〉（英語：Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend）是一首在1949年公演的百老匯音樂劇《紳士愛美人（英语：Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (musical)）》的爵士風曲目，原唱者為卡蘿爾·錢寧，此曲的改編版在1953年的同名電影版中由珍·羅素和瑪麗蓮·夢露分別演唱，2001年的荷里活音樂劇電影《情陷紅磨坊》中主演妮歌·潔曼亦演唱了本曲。

1953年瑪麗蓮·夢露版本[编辑]

大部分來源都指出1953年電影《紳士愛美人》中的曲目大部分都是由夢露本人親自演唱，只有少部分由其他歌手代唱，其中〈鑽石是女孩的摯友〉引子的高音“No！”部分由職業歌手歌莉婭·霍特（英语：Gloria Wood）代唱，這段引子一般不會被收錄於相關單曲唱片中^[1]^[2]^[3]。但在2007年一篇紐約時報的文章中，歌手瑪尼·尼克遜（英语：Marni Nixon）聲稱她代唱了“These rocks don't lose their shape”這一段^[4]。

夢露的版本入選美國電影學會2004年AFI百年百大电影歌曲的第十二位^[5]，這個版本，特別是夢露的桃紅色長裙和長手套的造型，成為了其他成名歌手翻唱和致敬的對象，例如麥當娜在1985年的〈拜金女孩〉的MTV中有一幕復刻了夢露版本的服飾和佈景，凯莉·米洛在福克斯澳洲電影主題公園1999年的開幕典禮中演唱〈鑽石是女孩的摯友〉時其服飾和舞蹈也是參考了夢露版本。瑞恩·高斯林在2024年第96屆奧斯卡金像獎獲獎時以夢露版本的服飾為藍本演唱〈我只是肯尼〉^[6]。

英文原文	中文翻譯
The French are glad to die for love They delight in fighting duels But I prefer a man who lives And gives expensive jewels A kiss on the hand May be quite continental But diamonds are a girl's best friend A kiss may be grand But it won't pay the rental On your humble flat Or help you at the automat Men grow cold As girls grow old And we all lose our charms in the end But square-cut or pear-shaped These rocks don't lose their shape Diamonds are a girl's best friend Tiffany's! Cartier! Black Starr Frost Gorham! Talk to me Harry Winston Tell me all about it There may come a time When a lass needs a lawyer But diamonds are a girl's best friend There may come a time When a hard-boiled employer Thinks you're awful nice But get that ice or else no dice He's your guy When stocks are high But beware when they start to descend It's then that those louses Go back to their spouses Diamonds are a girl's best friend I've heard of affairs That are strictly platonic But diamonds are a girl's best friend But I think affairs That you must keep liaisonic Are better bets If little pets get big baguettes Time rolls on and youth is gone And you can't straighten up when you bend But stiff back or stiff knees You stand straight at... Tiffany's Diamonds! Diamonds! I don't mean rhinestones But diamonds are a girl's best...
