Elton John and his songwriting partner Bernie Taupin are being celebrated.
埃尔顿·约翰和他的词曲创作伙伴伯尼·陶平正在受到庆祝。

The legendary songwriting duo was presented with the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song by The Library of Congress at a ceremony held in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday.
这对传奇歌曲创作组合周三在华盛顿特区举行的仪式上获得了美国国会图书馆颁发的格什温流行歌曲奖。

The singer, 76, and his longtime collaborator, 73, were honored at the event with a tribute concert featuring performances from Maren Morris, Metallica, Annie Lennox and Brandi Carlile.
76岁的杰克逊和他73岁的长期合作伙伴为他举办了一场致敬音乐会,由玛伦·莫里斯、金属乐队、安妮·伦诺克斯和布兰迪·卡莱尔演出。

Ahead of his award acceptance, John also performed his songs “Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters” and “Saturday Night’s Alright." 
在领奖前,约翰还演唱了他的歌曲《蒙娜丽莎》和《疯帽子》和《周六夜好吧》。

"They’re an inspiration to us," Metallica singer James Hatfield told reporters at the ceremony.
“他们是我们的灵感来源,”金属乐队主唱詹姆斯·哈特菲尔德在颁奖典礼上告诉记者。

"They’re responsible for some of the greatest songs of my childhood," added bandmate Kirk Hammett.
乐队成员柯克·哈米特补充说:“他们创作了我童年时代最伟大的一些歌曲。”

Brandi Carlile, 42, also said that "Nothing in the world could have kept me away from this evening" ahead of performing her cover of John's "Madman Across the Water"
42岁的布兰迪·卡莱尔在演唱约翰的《狂人》之前也说:“世界上没有什么能让我离开今晚。”

"Saying yes was not hard at all, but choosing just one song that holds special meaning for me was nearly impossible," Carlile added. "The honest to God-truth is that I may have never written a song or even played a musical instrument without Elton John and Bernie Taupin’s music."
卡莱尔补充说:“答应我一点都不难,但只选择一首对我来说有特殊意义的歌几乎是不可能的。”“说实话,如果没有埃尔顿·约翰和伯尼·陶平的音乐,我可能永远不会写歌,甚至不会演奏乐器。”

"When I discovered them, it was around 1993. It was the first thing I ever found in my life that was just mine," she continued. "My parents didn't like it — sorry, guys. They do now! But I was 11 and Elton was wild and outrageously dangerously fabulous. And he's saying the most beautiful stories I have ever heard."
“当我发现它们时,大约是在1993年。这是我生命中发现的第一件只属于我的东西,”她继续说道。“我的父母不喜欢——对不起,伙计们。他们现在知道了!但当时我才11岁,埃尔顿很狂野,非常危险。他说的是我听过的最美丽的故事。”

John and Taupin, who first met in 1967 and have created songs together for over 50 years, were announced as this year's Gershwin Prize recipients in January.
约翰和陶平于1967年相识,并共同创作了50多年的歌曲。今年1月,他们被宣布为今年的格什温奖得主。
