It's funny about music, what it can do for you.

音乐很有意思它能给你带来什么
My mother's family was actually from Iowa,

我母亲的家族就来自爱荷华州
a farm family from Iowa,

爱荷华州的一个农场家庭
and as a child they took me to Spillville, iowa.

在我很小的时候他们带我去斯比维尔
"Get in the car; we're going to get culture this afternoon.

"上车吧我们今天下午去感受文化
No more softball games. We're going for culture."

别玩垒球了我们去感受文化"
So I went to Spillville, and I can't hear that music

于是我就去了斯比维尔我只要一听到那段音乐
without thinking of that particular family or those

就能想到爱荷华州的那个家庭或者
particular people in Iowa. It's weird.

爱荷华州的那些人很奇怪吧
It's kind of--as we've said before, music provides an entry

也许这就像之前我们说过的
to the inner recesses of your memory sometimes.

音乐有时能进入到你内心深处的记忆
In any event, aside from that discursus,

不管怎样从回忆中走出来吧
