早上起床，没有什么比一段超级能量的音乐更加让人清醒了。Coldplay 的Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall 就给我一种浑身过电，奔跑中兴奋地追逐的晨光的狂喜。欢快的节奏和带感的贝斯，还有马汀独特的鼻音超重的唱腔，不信你们听：
And all the kids they dance all the kids dance all night
孩子们啊不知疲倦的通宵跳着舞
Until Monday morning feels another life
不知不觉，周一的早晨悄悄降临，又是一个新的开始
I turn the music up
我将音乐音量调大
I'm on a roll this time
我这次鸿运当头
And heaven is in sight
天堂触手可及
Origin
The phrase dates back to the time when gambling 1 was a common occurrence. When someone kept rolling the dice 2 it meant that they were winning. It is derived 3 from the idea when something starts rolling, it will continue to do so if there is no outside force that stops it. The phrase was used to describe a prolonged winning streak 4.
这个短语可以追溯到赌博普遍存在的时期。当有人持续掷骰子时，就意味着他们赢了。这个短语取自于如果某物没有外界干涉，一直转动的状态。这个短语被用来形容长时间的连胜。
