跟《歌手》學(xué)英文：林憶蓮 Run
《歌手》第3期競(jìng)演,可謂硝煙四起,不僅7位首發(fā)歌手都卯足了勁兒,節(jié)目還首次迎來(lái)雙補(bǔ)位踢館。參加競(jìng)演的9位歌手里,有3位歌手選擇演繹英文歌曲,他們分別是:林憶蓮,杜麗莎,迪瑪希。其中,前2位歌手排名非�？亢�,這不禁讓小編想起劉家昌老師在回憶錄里的一段話,“歌唱是自然的,發(fā)自心靈的,感情的。歌聲,如何比賽?”炫技,還是歸真?你如何看待呢?下面就讓我們跟隨《歌手》,來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)一下3首英文歌中的第1首,由林憶蓮唯美“蓮式唱腔”演繹的蘇格蘭另類搖滾樂(lè)隊(duì)Snow Patrol(雪地巡游隊(duì))的熱門單曲《Run》。
林憶蓮 Run
林憶蓮(Sandy Lam)作為首個(gè)出場(chǎng)的歌手,將這首感人淚下的《Run》演繹得細(xì)膩動(dòng)人。開頭舒緩低沉,娓娓道來(lái);中部蓄勢(shì)待發(fā),層層遞進(jìn);結(jié)尾高潮碰撞,情感爆發(fā)。柔和的燈光打在裙擺,給人一種歲月靜好的感覺(jué)。

【關(guān)于Snow Patrol】

北愛爾蘭/蘇格蘭搖滾樂(lè)隊(duì)“雪地巡游隊(duì)”于1993年建于鄧迪大學(xué)。
Initially an indie rock band, the group rose to prominence in the early-mid 2000s as part of the post-Britpop movement.
最初的“雪地巡游隊(duì)”,只是一支獨(dú)立搖滾樂(lè)團(tuán),但它卻在21世紀(jì)前10年中早期的后英式搖滾運(yùn)動(dòng)中傲然崛起。
During the course of their career, Snow Patrol have won seven Meteor Ireland Music Awards and have been nominated for six Brit Awards.
在整個(gè)職業(yè)生涯中,“雪地巡游隊(duì)”曾攬獲7座愛爾蘭流星音樂(lè)獎(jiǎng),并六度榮獲全英音樂(lè)獎(jiǎng)提名。
Since the release of Final Straw, the band have sold over 13 million albums worldwide.

【關(guān)于歌曲】
"Run" is a song by Northern Irish/Scottish alternative rock band Snow Patrol from their third studio album, Final Straw (2003). Snow Patrol's frontman, Gary Lightbody,
conceived
the idea of writing "Run" in 2000.
《逃》是北愛爾蘭/蘇格蘭另類搖滾樂(lè)隊(duì)“雪地巡游隊(duì)”第三章錄音室專輯《最后的稻草》(2003)里的一首歌。它是“雪地巡游隊(duì)”的主唱加里·萊特博迪于2000年靈感迸發(fā)時(shí)寫下的。
In an interview with Michael Odell, from Q Magazine, Lightbody explained the song was not written about "being a child", as he tended to say.
He described: "I was on a massive bender and one night I was drinking in the bar of the Glasgow School of Art.
在接受《Q Magazine》麥克·奧德爾的采訪時(shí),萊特博迪解釋說(shuō),這首歌并不是想要講述一個(gè)“年少輕狂”的故事。
“那時(shí)候我正在參加一個(gè)大型狂歡會(huì),一整晚都在格拉斯哥藝術(shù)學(xué)院的酒吧里喝酒。
I fell down a full flight of stairs.
Jonny Quinn found me in the stairwell with blood coming out of my head ... I split my head open and my eye was closed and I lost a few teeth ...
我從一整層樓梯上摔了下來(lái)。
約翰尼·奎因(“雪地巡游隊(duì)”的鼓手)在樓梯口發(fā)現(xiàn)了滿頭是血的我...我撞破了頭,暈了過(guò)去,還摔掉幾顆牙...
I wrote Run soon after on this little guitar I'd tried to smash up in my shitty little room near Hillhead."
事后不久,我就用這把小吉他寫下了《逃》這首歌 — 之前住在臨近希爾黑德(蘇格蘭最大城市格拉斯哥的一個(gè)區(qū))的陋室里時(shí),我還恨不得把這把吉他摔得粉身碎骨呢。”
In an interview with Daily Mail in 2009, Lightbody added: "We had nothing. I was in a flat in Glasgow. No doubt it was raining. The song was me writing about an imagined world, projecting myself into better times."
2009年接受《每日郵報(bào)》的采訪時(shí),萊特博迪對(duì)這首歌做了進(jìn)一步的解釋:“那時(shí)我們窮的叮當(dāng)響。我住在格拉斯哥的一幢公寓里,當(dāng)時(shí)大雨傾盆。這首歌寫的是我想象中的世界 — 我將自己設(shè)身于一個(gè)恰逢其時(shí)的年代。”
