“Music”是生活的调剂品,没有“music”的生活是有所缺失的。然而,“Face the music”却不是大家想象中的“面对音乐”。这个说法跟音乐并没有什么关系,表达的意思是:“承担后果”,面对现实或者处理一些现实状况,接受所有的结果,不管是好是坏。但大多数情况下都是不太好的结果。有时候,也用来表示接受惩罚,接受某个行为带来的直接后果。

这个短语来源于剧场。演员们在舞台上表演时,就直接面对着乐池中的乐队,在舞台上,演员经常会由于紧张或怯场而造成忘词等尴尬的局面,只要音乐一响,演员就没有任何选择的余地,只能去face the music(必须承受出现的局面)。人们遂用face the music指承担自己行为的后果。
