歌词
But just the physical grind of it is just amazing. You never get sleep, you never get correct sleep if you are on a bus,
但是身体上的折磨就更惊人。你根本睡不了觉,你做大巴的时候也睡不了安稳觉
you know you're moving all the time. You go from concert to bus, to hotel, to concert, to bus, to hotel and do it all over again.
你知道你时刻都在移动。你从演唱会到大巴到酒店再到演唱会坐大巴到酒店,重复一遍又一遍
On the other hand we get to see a lot of stuff and you can sleep on your days off. So and you know with airplanes and all that kind of routine,
另一方面我们也能见识到许多东西,你休息日的时候也可以补个觉。所以你知道坐飞机跑通告
I don't have to tell you now, after our unfortunate 911 that that's just make it 10 times more difficult. I can't imagine how the roadies do it.
我更不用说在经历了不幸的911事件后,这一切都比以前难了十倍,我就很难想象乐队管理人员们怎么过来的
Having the card and everything onto the plane, get everything checked. They must have to be there five hours before flight.
在飞机上准备好证件和其他杂物,将一切检查就绪。他们肯定在起飞前五小时就已经到了
So it's a grind I think that's what gets more people than anything else in this business.
所以这非常折磨人,也是为啥巡演比起这行的其他事物耗费的人力都要多
I went on vacation for a week to Caribbean and I came back with no tan, so it's kind of embarrassing. *You'll get the chance to diaper ,
我有次去加勒比海度假,回来都没有晒黑,很尴尬。*你是不是还得等着换尿布
it's okay, you look pretty good. Thanks man. You are at tan free age.
没关系,你看着很讨喜。多谢老兄。你这么年轻本来就晒不黑
You also have the problem internally as being square members may not agree with each other. And being have a time to see a break up.
你还要处理内部问题,因为小队成员们可能会起争执,一不小心就走到了解散的边缘
So in terms of the most challenging aspect, so I guess in fact you gotta make a plan for everything.
所以说到最有挑战性的方面,我猜你得为一切事物做好计划
You can come in the morning with the best laid plans and put you a plan to do to records today. But one phone call can send you off on a tangent.
你可以早上醒来就有清晰良好的计划来做今天的录音工作。但是一个电话就可能打乱你的计划安排你去做其他事了
Have to deal with the problems cancellations or shows there may not be selling as many tickets as you up to, and you may have to go to a smaller group.
你得处理很多事情诸如计划取消,票房未能达到预期,需要精简人员
You or weather problems, artists potentially not wanting to play at certain dates. It's a multitude of problems.
你自己的问题、天气因素和艺术家们突然在哪天不想演奏了的可能性,这样大量的问题
So what does the future hold for Linkin Park.
所以林肯公园的未来又在何方?
So far, with the CD with Hybrid Theory, I'm a big fan.
目前就凭这张专辑混合理论,我已经是个忠实粉丝了
This is an absolutely excellent CD and I'm just hoping that the next one that they release is just as good as this one.
这张专辑毫无疑问非常卓越而我也希望下一张专辑能跟首专一样好
Because then I definitely will be a fan for a very long time.
因为在这之后我肯定会在很长时间里都是他们的死忠粉
Just play focus on our shows and our fans, and that's like pretty much all about it. Like playing shows for our fans,
只要专注于演出和歌迷,就这么简单,为我们的粉丝去演奏
like getting down there, like talking to as many of them as you can and hang out.
我很喜欢在外面跟歌迷们尽可能多的交流,一起玩
I think that is also a key like the reason why we're getting this acceptable beginning so fast, in fact, like we kind of have a connection with our fans,
我认为这是关键,也是为什么我们能这么快取得一个让人满意的开局,事实上我们已经和歌迷们产生了链接
and the fans are the best fans in the world.
而歌迷们也是世界上最棒的
Oh, I think they can't wait. They totally sold out every show that they did and I think certain ,
哦,我觉得他们已经等不及了。他们的每场演出的票都卖光了,我也觉得
certain band if you keep the bill then you keep the press a little bit
一些特别的乐队只要你大力宣传,保持对创作的压力
and you're still hitting the radio market, which is a huge, huge importance in the United States.
而你还能够保持在市场上热卖,这在美国是很巨大巨大的关键点
If we don't have a radio hits, it's dumbly impossible to sell a lot of records. And you know if they have that one hitting and it's still charting,
如果我们没有电台热度,那么我们几乎不可能卖出这么多专辑。你也知道你已经有一张热卖专辑而且到现在热度依然不减
it's still being played and or another hit two, five years down the line they can release another record and still be ,you know, big.
到现在人们仍然在听,甚至又要冲上热榜,那么在五年之后他们可以在放出下一张专辑,而且仍然会,你知道的,大卖
Some of the bands critics described them as a manufactured rock boy band. SCREW YOU, man, you could only dream that you were this good.
有些乐队评论家们说他们只是人造的摇滚屁孩乐队,可去你的吧,你也只能在梦里像他们这么优秀
The words that they're saying are like they're down to earth and like it might be picked up as trendy and like, since their music is really good,
他们的歌词非常的接地气而且因为旋律也很棒所以开始流行起来
everyone might start liking it. So, therefore they might like, give that kind of name because they're popular because people understand where they are coming from,
所有人都开始喜欢他们。所以他们会收到这样的评价,只是因为他们很受欢迎,因为大家对通俗易懂的音乐更能感同身受
but I think they're a little bit different than other bands might be. Definitely I don't think they are like metal boy band something.
但是我觉得他们跟其他的乐队可能还是有点差别,当然我肯定不觉得他们是什么摇滚男孩乐队
Following the success of their debut album, the guys have decided to release a remix album.
赶着首张专辑的成功,他们决定放出一张混音专辑
Looks like you metal heads are going to have a bit more hip hop in your lives.
看起来你们金属乐迷们要开始听点嘻哈了
Let's say if you make you know good music when you believe in yourself and you personally had never give up.
可以这么说如果你能做出好音乐那么你就要相信自己而且自己也永远不能放弃
That's no way that you can lose. At some point you'll get, you'll get your chance,at some point you will succeed and I don't know that success may be,
你就不可能失败。总有一天你能得到机会,也总有一天你会成功,不管你要是怎样的成功
but at some point you know you'll get your justice on you.
总有一天你能够得到你应得的回报
Well, my advice to them would be my wise would lead to anybody who try to conquer anything, which would be just don't give up. No matter what happens,
那么,我的建议就是我的处事哲学,可以给任何想要达成任何成就的人,那就是无论如何永远不要放弃
no matter what rational thought pattern goes to your head that you feel like ok it's better if I go do this instead of this.
不管什么样的理性思考涌上心头,想着我是不是应该另谋出路
If you really want to be successful in music,
如果你想在音乐圈混出名堂
through the ups and downs, the hard times, the days that it seems like it's just not meant for you, don't give up.
在大起大落,艰难的时刻,那些你怀疑自己不适合干这行的日子里,都不要放弃
I don't know, people say it's the world's toughest business. I think life in general is as tough as you make it, you know.
我不好说,人们说这行是全世界最辛苦的工作。我倒觉得人生在世想要有一番作为都不容易,你懂吗
And I always figured we're not saving lives we're making music and we , sometimes you will get a perspective like it's songs and it's making people happy.
我也总是在想我们不是在拯救生命,我们是在做音乐,而且我们有时会有一种观点,就是我们做出的音乐能让大家快乐
It's real simple, if, it doesn't matter who we are, how good we are, what we do in the industry, without the talent, without the artist,
很简单,如果,不管我们是谁有多优秀,在行业内做了什么,没有才华,没有艺人的话
there is no business, and eventually comes back to the talent. You can have quick hits that are made in the studio by producers sounds.
整个行业都会不复存在,其实到最后总会回到才能本身。你能靠着制作人音效师很快就能冲上热点
But over a long period of time the accent sell of big numbers, have the big album sells are artists with unique talents.
但是经过时间的考验,那些能够保持在畅销榜,手握数张大卖专辑的人永远会是有着独特才华的艺术家
And without those we don't really have a business,
所以没了这些,整个行业也就没了
and if you look at the history of the business the Beatles all the way, the great artists are bound to talent,
而且只要你回望历史,从甲壳虫乐队一直到现在,伟大的艺人总是与才华紧密相连
without that, you know without the talent I wouldn't have a job.
没有这些,你知道没有这些人才我就失业了
Even the team fans, I think we might have been talking to them, talking about them today as if they're,
即使是乐队的歌迷,我觉得我们曾经说过,说他们在今天就像是
you know, kind of sheep being lead around. I also think they're very fickle and they're very sophisticated too.
就像是被四处引导的羊群,但是我觉得他们的口味多变且复杂。
I think to a large extent it does come down to the music and for the hooks to the songs and not to say that
很大程度上,这确实取决于作为“吊钩”的音乐上,当然也不是说
anyone with great, great songs are great hooks is going to make it.
任何人有了特别好特别好的歌,也就是好的“吊钩”就能成功
But I think without that even the sale list projects might not succeed.
但是我觉得没有了这个,就算再畅销的营销手段也很难成功
Whatever happens to Linkin Park, you can expect these guys to continue doing great music.
无论林肯公园发生什么,你可以一直期待这些家伙们继续做出好音乐
They've come a long way since their beginning, and they're still only on their first album. You can be sure there has to be more to come.
他们从出道以来已经走过了很长的路,而且他们也只发行了一张专辑。毋庸置疑更多的还在路上
I think a second album does take longer. I think when a band had a first album that's been very successful,
我觉得第二张专辑会耗时更久,我想如果一个乐队的首张专辑非常成功
then they tend to worry about the failure of the second album as if that's gonna make them break their career. You know they have second album with guides,
那么他们就会开始担心下一张专辑会不会失败甚至终结音乐生涯,你知道他们的第二张专辑会受到影响
we never gonna do well again, you know I think I think sometimes people are a little too serious about it.
想着我们没法跟过去一样优秀了,你懂吗我觉得人们有时候有点太过认真了
I'd say if you don't like you know alternative type of music, if you just check them out and listen to their albums,
我想说就算你不喜欢另类音乐,只要你试着听一下他们的专辑,
I can guarantee you all of those songs at least like half of them at least even if you didn't like that type of music.
未能保证所有那些歌里至少有一半你会喜欢,即使你不喜欢这类型的音乐
Yeah, basically just give them a chance and try .You will be guaranteed to like them.
没错,基本上你给他们一次机会尝试一下,你保证会爱上他们的
