Sorry seems to be the hardest word
«Прости» — самое трудное слово
What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find that you’re not there
What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it’s all over
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
It’s sad, so sad
It’s a sad, sad situation
And it’s getting more and more absurd
It’s sad, so sad
Why can’t we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
What do I do to make you love me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
What have I got to do
What have I got to do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты меня любила?
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты испытывала чувства?
Что мне делать, когда в меня ударяет молния
И я просыпаюсь, но тебя нет рядом?
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты меня хотела?
Что мне сделать, чтобы быть услышанным?
Что я могу сказать, когда все кончено
И «прости», кажется, самое трудное слово?
Это грустная, такая грустная,
Это грустная, грустная ситуация
И она становится все более и более абсурдной.
Это грустно, очень грустно
Почему мы не можем договориться?
О, мне кажется,
Что «прости» — самое трудное слово
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты меня любила?
Что мне сделать, чтобы быть услышанным?
Что мне делать, когда в меня ударяет молния?
Что мне делать,
Что мне делать,
Когда «прости» кажется самым трудным словом?

The song also appeared the following year on Greatest Hits Volume II, though for copyright reasons it no longer appears on the current version of that album. It now appears on Greatest Hits 1976–1986, The Very Best of Elton John and in Greatest Hits 1970–2002, as well as a number of other compilations.
Background and compositionEdit
«Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word» is a mournful ballad about a romantic relationship that is falling apart. Bernie Taupin said: «It’s a pretty simple idea, but one that I think everyone can relate to at one point or another in their life. That whole idealistic feeling people get when they want to save something from dying when they basically know deep down inside that it’s already dead. It’s that heartbreaking, sickening part of love that you wouldn’t wish on anyone if you didn’t know that it’s inevitable that they’re going to experience it one day.»[1]
Elton John began writing the song in 1975 in Los Angeles. Whilst many of his songs involved Taupin writing lyrics first, then John writing the music later, John wrote the melody and most of the lyrics for «Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word», and Taupin completed it afterwards. John explained: «I was sitting there and out it came, ‘What have I got to do to make you love me.'»
Taupin later said: «I don’t think he was intending on writing a song, but we were sitting around an apartment in Los Angeles, and he was playing around on the piano and he came up with this melody line, and I said, ‘Hey, that’s really nice.’ For some reason this lyrical line, ‘Sorry seems to be the hardest word’ ran through my head, and it fit perfectly with what he was playing. So I said, ‘Don’t do anything more to that, let me go write something,’ so I wrote it out in a few minutes and we had the song.» Taupin added: «[The i]nteresting thing about ‘Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word’ is that it’s one of the rare occasions when Elton played me a melody line that inspired a lyric, as opposed to our routine of the lyrics always coming first. He was messing around on the piano one day and was playing something and asked me what did I think. It was actually pretty immediate, the title and the first couple of lines came into my head in a way that I guess I felt they were already there and just needed a little prompting.»[1]
ReceptionEdit
Billboard praised John’s vocal performance, calling it «almost painfully sincere and believable» and also commented on the complexity of the backing vocals.[2] Cash Box called it «a tender love song about breaking up.»[3] Record World called it «Elton’s most emotional and moving ballad performance since ‘Someone Saved My Life Tonight.'»[4]

«Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word» was covered in 2002 by English boy band Blue for their second studio album, One Love (2002). The song was recorded as a collaboration with Elton John and was the second single from the album. It peaked at number one on the UK Singles Chart on 15 December 2002, giving Blue their third number-one single and John his fifth. It also reached number one in Hungary and the Netherlands, and peaked within the top 10 in an additional 16 countries.
BackgroundEdit
When Blue’s second studio album, One Love, was being put together, executive producer Hugh Goldsmith said that a cover version should be included on the final tracklist.[18] Band member Lee Ryan suggested «Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word» as it was his favourite song of all time.[19] Despite reservations from the rest of the group,[18] who were sceptical that Elton John would allow them to record the track, John’s management gave permission.[20] John accompanied the band in the recording studio and was originally only going to play the piano,[21] but he later said he was willing sing as well, and the song became a duet.[22]

Other versionsEdit
The song was covered by Joe Cocker in 1991 for the Two Rooms: Celebrating the Songs of Elton John & Bernie Taupin tribute album. Cocker is quoted in the album liner notes:
Way back in ’68 I met Elton in the office of the publisher Dick James. I was given a tape of ‘Border Song’ which for some obscure reason I turned down. I hope I’ve made up for it with this rendition of ‘Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word’ that shows the deeper side of Reg and Bernie’s writing.
In 1993, Argentinian singer Pedro Aznar covered and translated the lyrics in Spanish called «Ya no hay forma de pedir perdón», which made the single popular and a favourite among Argentinians.[citation needed]
Mary J. Blige also covered this song.[citation needed]
In 2004, Elton John and Ray Charles performed the song on Charles’ duet album, Genius Loves Company. It would turn out to be the last recording Charles ever did before his death that June.[77] The duet was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals. It was also performed by smooth jazz saxophonist Kenny G on the soprano saxophone featuring Richard Marx on his 2004 album At Last…The Duets Album later that year.[citation needed]
The single was the lead single for the eight-track remix compilation Good Morning to the Night in collaboration with Australian remixer Pnau, which came out on 16 July 2012. In 2015, the song was covered by Diana Krall. This version was included on her Wallflower album.[citation needed]

What have I got to do to make you love me
Что же сделать мне, чтоб ты любила,
What have I got to do to make you care
Что же сделать мне, чтоб ты ждала —
What do I do when lightning strikes me
Ты мне нужна, как молний сила,
And I wake to find that you’re not there
Но очнулся я — и нет тебя…
What have I do to make you want me
Как же сделать так, чтоб ты желала,
What have I got to do to be heard
Мой услышав зов, мои мольбы?
What do I say when it’s all over
Но знаю я — всё отпылало.
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
Трудно так сказать тебе «прости»
It’s sad, so sad
Мне жаль, так жаль,
It’s a sad, sad situation
Это боль, боль ситуаций.
And it’s getting more and more absurd
Как не взглянешь, так и так — всё бред…
It’s sad, so sad
Мне жаль, так жаль,
Why can’t we talk it over
И как теперь общаться,
Oh it seems to me
Очень трудно мне —
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
Трудно так сказать «прости» тебе
What have I do to make you love me

Что мне делать, когда в меня словно ударяет молния,
What have I do to make you want me
И я просыпаюсь, но тебя нет рядом…
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it’s all over
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты хотела меня?
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты услышала меня?
Что мне сказать, когда все кончено
It’s sad, so sad
И нет сил сказать «Прости»?
It’s a sad, sad situation
And it’s getting more and more absurd
Это грустная, такая грустная,
It’s sad, so sad
Грустная, грустная ситуация,
Why can’t we talk it over
И она становится все более абсурдной…
Oh it seems to me
Это грустно, очень грустно
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
Почему мы не понимаем друг друга без слов?
What have I do to make you love me
Что попросить прощения я не смогу…
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты меня любила?
What have I got to do
Что мне сделать, чтобы ты услышала меня?
What have I got to do
Что мне делать, когда в меня словно ударяет молния?…
When sorry seems to be the hardest word
Что я должен делать?
Когда нет сил сказать «Прости»…
Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word
What have I got to do to make you love me
«Прости» тебе сказать — тяжелый труд*(перевод Rust из Москвы)
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
Что сделать мне, чтоб ты любила,
And I wake to find that you’re not there
Что б ты заметила меня?
Меня как вспышкой разбудило,
What have I do to make you want me
Но рядом не было тебя.
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it’s all over
Что сделать, что б меня хотела,
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
Мои услышала мольбы?
Что скажешь — птица улетела,
It’s sad, so sad
Но сил у меня нет сказать «Прости».
It’s a sad, sad situation
And it’s getting more and more absurd
О, грусть, ты грусть,
It’s sad, so sad
Грустная ситуация,
Why can’t we talk it over
Яснее виден твой абсурд.
Oh it seems to me
О, грусть, ты грусть,
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
Нам нужно пообщаться,
What have I do to make you want me
«Прости» тебе сказать — тяжелый труд.
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it’s all over
Что сделать, что б меня хотела,
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
Мои услышала мольбы?
Что скажешь — птица улетела,
It’s sad, so sad
Но сил у меня нет сказать «Прости».
It’s a sad, sad situation
And it’s getting more and more absurd
О, грусть, ты грусть,
It’s sad, so sad
Грустная ситуация,
Why can’t we talk it over
Яснее виден твой абсурд.
Oh it seems to me
О, грусть, ты грусть,
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
Нам нужно пообщаться,
What have I do to make you love me
«Прости» тебе сказать — тяжелый труд.
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
Что сделать мне, чтоб ты любила,
What have I got to do
Мои услышала мольбы?
What have I got to do
Меня как вспышкой озарило,
When sorry seems to be the hardest word
Что делать мне,
«Прости» тебе сказать — тяжелый труд.

What have I got to do to make you love me What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me And I wake to find that you’re not there
What do I do to make you want me What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it’s all over
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
It’s sad, so sad
It’s a sad, sad situation
And it’s getting more and more absurd
It’s sad, so sad
Why can’t we talk it over
Oh it seems to me That sorry seems to be the hardest word
What do I do to make you love me What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me What have I got to do What have I got to do When sorry seems to be the hardest word
