关于Keren Ann (转自TOM音乐)
Keren Ann对于法国流行乐的钟情也源于她的经历以及合作的音乐人。1974年,她出生于以色列,从小学吉他时就开始扒Joni Mitchell的曲子,11岁举家迁往巴黎后竟然得到了Joni Mitchell的赏识而结识了著名制作人Benjamin Biolay,后者的古典音乐背景为她的作品带来更丰富的编配层次。2000年Keren Ann的首张专辑《La Biographie De Luka Philipsen》融入了俄国文学、犹太民谣和法国诗歌,并以Trip-Hop、民谣及法国流行乐的融合形式现身,一举在欧洲赢得巨大成功。一曲《Jardin d'Hiver》更是惊动了80高龄的法国Bossa Nova鼻祖Henri Salvador,后者在自己的经典复出专辑《Chambre Avec Vue》中收录了包括《Jardin d'Hiver》在内的五首由Benjamin Biolay和Keren Ann创作的曲子。
从第二张专辑《La Disparition》开始,Keren Ann在民谣中加入了更多爵士和布鲁斯的元素,据说是因为听了不少Chet Baker和Tom Waits的东西。这一特点在这张《Not Going Anywhere》也有体现,只不过Keren Ann布鲁斯民谣更低调,略带颓废的清淡语调一直贯穿于小夜曲一般的主题曲中,贯穿于《End Of May》梦幻般的和声中,也贯穿于唯一一首节奏强烈的《Sailor And Widow》之中。甚至连像圣诞童谣一样的《Right Now And Right Here》、唯美极致的香颂《By The Cathedral》和带有一丝拉丁吉他色彩的《Spanish Song Bird》,也无一不笼罩在一层感伤的淡淡雾气中。而早先的Trip-Hop节拍表象已然隐匿,转化成为Beth Gibbons似的内在阴郁。
Seventeen
Look at me I'm only seventeen
The many years between us
Have been broken
Look at me under the evergreen
Life is a mellow dream
Almost unspoken
By the way
You said you're here to stay
Let me love you till tomorrow
Then it will last a year and a day
Maybe we're here to forget
Look at me, I'm only seventeen
It hasn't been too long
But it's been lonely
Look at me, and smell the tangerine
Life is a mellow song
But only
only
By the time
You reach your lemon-lime
I will love you till tomorrow
Then it will last a year and a day
Maybe we're here to forget
Look at me, I'm only seventeen
It hasn't been too long
But it's been lonely
Look at me, under the evergreen
Life is a mellow song
If only
only...
