spider's web
专辑: Piece by Piece
发行时间: 2005年09月26日
表演者: Katie Melua
地区:美国
语言:英语

if a black man is racist, is it okay
if it's the white man's racism that made him that way
'cause the bully's the victim they say
by some sense they're all the same

because the line between
wrong and right
is the width of a thread
from a spider's web
the piano keys are black and white
but they sound like a million colours in your mind
i could tell you to go to war
or i could march for peace and fighting no more
how do i know which is right
and i hope he does when he sends you to fight
because the line between wrong and right
is the width of a thread from a spider's web
the piano keys are black and white
but they sound like a million colours in your mind
should we act on a blame
or should we chase the moments away
should we live
should we give
remember forever the guns and the feathers in time
because the line between wrong and right
is the width of a thread from a spider's web
the piano keys are black and white
but they sound like a million colours in your mind

the piano keys are black and white
but they sound like a million colours in your mind

but they sound like a million colours in your mind

Katie Melua凯蒂·玛露19岁,俄罗斯人,成长于俄罗斯及英国。2003年底,首支单曲“The Closest Thing To Crazy”发行便强登英国金榜Top 10。不久,广获好评的首张专辑一举挤下英伦人气天后Dido/蒂朵、击退Norah Jones,荣获6周英国金榜后座,成为英国2004开春迄今最畅销专辑。声线兼备蓝调、民谣、爵士味道的Katie Melua,常被乐评拿来与诺拉·琼丝相提并论。但她那相较甜美清澈的年轻嗓音,让人遥想起已逝的跨界流行爵士美声Eva Cassidy。而在被Mike Batt发掘的那天,Katie所演唱的正好就是受Eva启发而学下的创作曲“Faraway Voice”。此外,她也自承在音乐方面受到Queen、Joni Mitchell、Bob Dylan和印度音乐及爱尔兰民谣等多类乐风的影响。

1984年,她降生在前苏联的Georgia。随后是同家人的迁徙,一路从Belfast, Ireland 到 London。于是她成功了,一切仿佛很自然,很偶然,也很意外。

2003 年底,首支单曲"The Closest Thing To Crazy"强登英国金榜Top 10。不久,广获好评的首张专辑"Call Of The Search"一举挤下英伦人气天后Dido、击退Norah Jones,荣获6周英国金榜后座,成为英国2004开春迄今最畅销专辑。后来江美琪把The Closest Thing To Crazy翻唱成了「谁会相信」。

今年,Katie发行了她的第二张录音室专辑"Piece By Piece"。首支单曲主打Nine Million Bicycles融合着爵士的流行味道慢版的抒情小调扑面而来。而对于我们来说,最重要的是,她讲述了一个来自北京的故事。一般来说,专辑的前三支单曲都是抓人耳朵的。所以,从Shy boy,Nine Million Bicycles,再到专辑同名歌曲Piece By Piece,我们听到的是基于流行和接近平淡的Katie的声音和演唱。甚至对我来说,Piece By Piece最后的抒情有太多的矫柔造作。当三支流行单曲过后,Katie才开始展现她的才华。于是我们听到了跳跃的Halfway Up The Hindu Kush。低沉的爵士鼓,轻盈的打击乐器。我仿佛还能看见Katie恣意的演唱,呵呵,恣意,突然就用了这个词,就如同突然响起了这样的音乐。

My Mama don't tell me...就这样随意的开场,然后是声音随音乐、情绪的游走。这个时候也就不用想的太多。选择闭上眼睛,让耳朵再敏感一些,再敏感一些,以至于能抓住最细微的气息和情感。就让我们享受这一刻,享受Blues In The Night。

      如果黑人由于白人的种族歧视,而变成一个种族主义者
      那么那是他的错吗
      他们说,因为欺凌别人的人同时也是受害者
      所以两者其实是一样的

      because the line between
      wrong and right
      is the width of a thread
      from a spider's web
      the piano keys are black and white
      but they sound like a million colours in your mind

      因为是非之间
      不过蛛网一丝的距离
      虽然钢琴键黑白分明
      但是它们的音乐在你脑海里却是千万种颜色

      i could tell you to go to war
      or i could march for peace and fighting no more
      how do i know which is right
      and i hope he does when he sends you to fight

      我可以劝你去参军
      也可以为了和平止战而游行
      我又怎么知道哪样是对的?
      我希望那些送你上战场的人能够知道什么是对的

      because the line between wrong and right
      is the width of a thread from a spider's web
      the piano keys are black and white

      should we act on a blame
      or should we chase the moments away
      should we live
      should we give
      remember forever the guns and the feathers in time

      我们应该为了一时之错而冲动
      还是应该试图忘却一切
      我们应该活下去吗
      我们应该给予吗
      永远记住时间长河中的枪支和羽毛

      is the width of a thread from a spider's web
