Re: [情報] Alanis 新專輯 Chaos
: Alanis Embraces "Chaos"
Alanis 擁抱”混亂”
: Morissette gets experimental on upcoming album
Alanis 要作一張實驗性專輯
: Alanis Morissette will release So-Called Chaos in late February. She is
: currently putting the finishing touches on the album, the follow-up to last
: year's Under Rug Swept, with longtime collaborator Tim Thorney and John
: Shanks (Michelle Branch) in a Santa Monica recording studio owned by
: Jackson Browne.
Alanis 二月底要發一張叫做”混亂”的專輯,目前正在收尾
: "I started writing on and off this summer very reticently," she says. "I
: wrote a couple of songs, ventured away from the studio, then ventured back
: in. By the fall I realized I had enough songs that could make a record."
: One of the first tracks written for the album was "Knees of My Bees," a
: song Morissette calls a tribute to her boyfriend of more than a year. "I
: always have to honor him in some way," she says.
我這個夏天開始斷斷續續的寫歌,在錄音室外冒險然後也在錄音室內實驗,
到秋天的時候我了解到我已經有夠多的歌可以作專輯了,最早為專輯寫的歌之一
是”Knees of My Bees”,是向她交往超過一年的男友致敬的歌,
: Among the rest of the ten tracks are "Eight Easy Steps," a song that begins
: with seductive dance loops, then bursts into its explosive, guitar-heavy
: chorus; the mid-tempo rocker "Everything"; and "Out Is Through," which
: begins with a soft melodic intro and evolves into a towering hook.
: "This Grudge" is a pretty ballad about letting go. Morissette sings,
: "Fourteen years, thirty minutes, fifteen seconds I've held this
: grudge/Eleven songs, four full journals, thoughts of punishments I've
: expended."
其他的十首歌中還有”Eight Easy Steps”,由非常媚惑的dance loop開始,
突然轉入爆炸的重吉他副歌... 我懶得翻了
: "At this particular time in my life the challenge for me was to figure out
: this concept of forgiveness that always sounded so great on paper,"
: Morissette explains. "But how do you do it? I could say, 'Yes, I forgive
: you.' But that doesn't mean I truly forgive a person. So this song wasn't
: even so much about my having done it; it was about my yearning and
: readiness to do it, or so I think."
目前對我來說挑戰在於,原諒別人在在理論上是如此美好,但要如何作?
我可以說”好,我原諒你。”但那並不代表我真的原諒一個人,所以這首歌
並不是真正關於我原諒了別人這件事,而是我希望而且準備要去原諒別人
: The album's title comes from a song of the same name that is one of
: Morissette's most adventurous. It begins a detached, looping vocal, and
: builds into a high-energy chorus in which Morissette sings, "I want to be
: naked running through the streets/I want to invite this so-called chaos
: that you think I dare not be," and then climaxes with a wall of distortion.
: The experimental nature of "Chaos" is echoed elsewhere throughout the
: album: Morissette plays around with dance loops, as well as her love for
: Indian music ("Knees of my Bees" employs a sitar). "My records inform me
: about where I'm at," she says.
專輯名稱是來自於其中一首最具實驗性的歌
: So where does she find herself on So-Called Chaos? "I don't consider myself
: to be a piano artist, a loop artist, or a hip-hop artist. I don't know what
: I am . . . and that shows."
