I remember Nineteen Hundred watched him as he walked off down the dock and all he said was Fuck jazz too.

我記得1900看著他離開碼頭，他只說了句去他的爵士樂。

And that's just what he said ”Fuck jazz too.“

他只是說了，去他的爵士樂。

-Pops: You again?

又是你?

-Max: Yes, lower that cannon, will you?

是的，放低槍口，好嗎?

-Pops: See your instrument and then steal it back again. That's an old trick. I should have guessed that you were a thief.

找到你的樂器再偷走它，又是這套老把戲。我早應該猜到你是個賊。

Pops，我沒多少時間了。

-Pops: Well, I do! Seeing as I have a gun. And now that I think of it since when were records made on board steamships.

record: 唱片 steamship: 蒸氣船

是啊，因為我有槍。我現(xiàn)在突然想到了這個是在船上錄制的唱片。

If that music was played by your friend it means that at some time in his life he got off that ship! Correct?

如果那首曲子是你朋友彈奏的，這意味著他在此生中曾下過船，對嗎?

-Max: Not a chance, Pops. He cut this passionate recording personally. I think it's his best work.

not a chance: 不可能 passionate: 充滿熱情的 cut: 灌制(唱片) personally: 親自地，作為一個人

沒那機會，Pops。他自己一個人錄制的，我認為這是他的杰作。

But he didn't jump ship to do it not even for a second.

他一秒都沒下過船。

the sky is the limit: 沒有限制，沒有什么不可能 like hot cakes: 【很受歡迎的東西，搶手貨】 hotcake: 烤餅

又沒人限制過1900，我們相信他的唱片一定能暢銷的。

go far: 指人有出息，有前途

你會大有前途的，1900先生。你介意我稱呼你做1900嗎?

-Record Label A: That is one amazing piece of music. what is it called? It's going to have people crying buckets.

amazing: 令人驚奇的 cry bucket: [口]嚎啕[哇哇]大哭

這首曲子真絕了，它叫什么名字?這曲子讓人癡迷。

It's got to have the right title though, something catchy like ”swinging in the Breeze“ or…

catchy: 易記住的 swing: 搖擺，動搖

它需要一個能吸引人的名字，就像《暢游清風》或者…

Great, as usual. ”Sweet Nineteen“， that's it.

as usual: 像往常一樣

太棒了，像往常一樣。叫《甜蜜的世紀樂隊》，就這樣。

-Max: You are going to be bigtime. And all you got to do is take that big step.

bigtime: 紅極一時的，赫赫有名的

你就會成為大人物，你所要做的只是向前跨一大步。

-1900: What big step?

什么一大步?

lousy: 差勁的 plank: 厚木板，支架

下船，離開這惡心的木船跳板，接下來…
