巨星深度访谈 Deep Interview Adele interview: The Guardian 11122008
On being nominated for four Grammies, as a girl of 20, she was
definitely lucky and shining. The whole world were curious and
crazy about her. Now comes her story.
作为一个年仅20岁女生,获得4项格莱美提名,阿黛尔无疑是幸运之神眷顾,闪耀全球。世界也对她好奇,
整个乐坛为之疯狂。接下来让我们倾听她的故事: On being nominated for four Grammies, why
she loves Duffy, and the worst thing she has read about herself
this year? Journalist: Where were you when you heard about the
Grammy nominations? 记者:当你听到被格莱美提名时,你在哪儿? Adele: I was with my mum,
watching Blood Diamond. I was hoping I’d be nominated for one, but
I wasn’t expecting it. Perez Hilton let me know I’d got the first
one - he’s been championing me in America. Then it was four within
an hour - my mum screamed. I was afraid we’d wake the neighbours.
阿黛尔:当时我和母亲正在看《Blood Diamond》.虽然我希望自己可以得到提名,但是我没料到竟然成真。Perez
Hilton让我得知我是冠军,他在美国一直支持我。接下来的一个小时内收到了另外四项提名通知,母亲一直兴奋地尖叫,我很担心我们把邻居吵醒。
Journalist: At the start of the year, you were hotly tipped. Have
you lived up to the hype? 记者:年初你曾大量吸金,你认为这是铺天盖地的宣传的回报吗? Adele: I
think I have, yes. With that hype, you have to sell a lot of
records, and I’ve done more than a million. But I think Duffy is
the sound of 2008. She’s sold stupid amounts of records. I’m not
fazed by that. I want to be making records forever; this first
album isn’t the one that defines me.
阿黛尔:个人认为是的。在大肆的宣传下你必须唱片大卖,我已经售出超过一百万张。但我认为Duffy才是2008之声,她的唱片大获全胜。但我没被吓倒,我希望我永远在破纪录,仅凭第一张唱片并不能定义我。
Journalist: Does it bug you that Chasing Pavements has become the
single? 记者:《一路狂追》成为唯一的一首成名曲让你很困扰吗? Adele: Not at all. I hope that
I’ve got a better song so I haven’t got to sing that at Fairfield
Halls when I’m 50, but I’m very proud of it. It really defined what
I was feeling at that time, when I was with that boy. I prefer
Hometown Glory. 阿黛尔:一点也不,我希望我可以有一首更好的歌,这样我在50岁时不必在Fairfield
Halls唱那一首,但是我仍引以为荣。那首歌真实地诠释了当我和那个男孩在一起时的感受。个人而言,我更偏爱《故乡荣光》这一首。
