一直说想推荐一位女歌手,却想了很久。我最喜欢的女歌手是?我几乎不听中国女歌手的音乐,至于欧美的Amy Winehouse ,Keren Ann 和 Danna Winner都是我喜欢的,然而却是不同的音乐风格本身就不具比较性。一个是灵魂乐,一个是民谣,最后想了很久还是认为来自比利时的Dana Winner的在感觉上略胜一筹。至于她的音乐风格我听了她的专辑后真的无法给她定,网上说她是Folk的比较多。但我觉得有些却与民谣并不那么接近。当然听好音乐不必太注意去关心她的音乐风格,那对理解歌手的音乐在本质上并无多大帮助。
所以我豆瓣上给那些专辑音乐贴的标签大多是以人名为为标准的。
第一次从我邮箱里收到来自好友的推荐,是那首本身非常出名而且很多不翻唱过的 Moonlight Shadow ,据说也有一中国人翻唱过。听后非常震撼,居然世上还有这种声音。再看一下歌词,写得非常好。
如此美丽的音色,Dana Winner的嗓子应该是我听过的让人听后感觉还要在脑际徘徊良久的那种,唯一的。从她歌声里慢慢发出的透明几乎能渗进人的每一寸肌肤。
当然还是往常一样去下载她的歌,才发现好的下载链接太难找了。最后只好用了将近两天时间到VeryCd上去拖。把她的 Unforgettable整张专辑下载下来。
音色纯净,音域宽广的她在1988年一次混音竞赛中以一首由Mireille Mathieu唱的Amour Défendu的获胜次年,发行了第一张单曲翻唱卡朋特的Top of the World从此走上演艺事业.Dana Winner的第一张专辑RegenbogenCD在1993年10月发行销量超过150000张荣获比利时最佳女歌手金眼奖囊获5个白金奖。第二张专辑 Mijn paradijs发行后夺得4个白金奖项再次捧得金眼奖1995年,在新专辑Regen van Geluk发行后,各种奖项接踵而来其中包括:Golden Eye, 最佳女歌手Zamu奖和The Brussels International Trade Mart Award提名1996,Waar is het gevoel专辑发行,无庸质疑的白金销量,并获第四次Golden Eye奖,到现在为止Dana Winner已经在17个国家售出了130多万张唱片。
推荐那首Moonlight Shadow并附上歌词。
Moonlight Shadow歌词
The last that ever she saw him,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
He passed on worried and warning,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night,
far away on the other side,
he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight,
and she couldn’t find how to push through.The trees that whisper in the evening,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Sing the song of sorrow and grieving,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun,
far away on the other side,
He was shot six times by a man on the run,
and she couldn’t find how to push through.Bridge:I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away,
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven one day.Four a.m. in the morning,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
I watched your vision forming,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Star was glowin’ in a silvery night,
far away on the other side,
Will you come to talk to me this night,
but she couldn’t find how to push through.Bridge:
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away,
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven one day.
but she couldn’t find how to push through.
Bridge:
far away on the other side,
far away on the other side,
and she couldn’t find how to push through.
and she couldn’t find how to push through.
