研究:克里斯·馬丁寫《Fix You》時(shí)可能哭了
BOSTON—Shedding light on the emotional state of Coldplay’s frontman and his internal process while composing the iconic ballad, researchers at the Berklee College of Music published a study Monday confirming that Chris Martin probably cried when he wrote “Fix You.”
美國伯克利音樂學(xué)院的研究人員于本周一公布的一項(xiàng)研究結(jié)果證實(shí)，克里斯•馬丁在創(chuàng)作《Fix You》時(shí)可能哭了。這一研究結(jié)果進(jìn)一步揭示了酷玩樂隊(duì)主唱在創(chuàng)作這首經(jīng)典歌曲時(shí)的情緒狀態(tài)以及他的創(chuàng)作過程。
“After months of inquiry, analysis, music theory breakdowns, interviews with those closest to the writer and composer, and listening to the song ourselves and paying attention to how it made us feel inside, we can say with complete confidence that Chris Martin was probably feeling pretty down when he created the melody to ‘Fix You,’ and may have even gotten all choked up,” said lead researcher Yvette Daniels in a summary of the study’s findings, the conclusion of which was derived from a statistical simulation run over 80 times, nearly all of which determined that Martin had no choice but to bawl his eyes out at crucial points of the song’s creation process.
首席研究員伊維特·丹尼爾斯(Yvette Daniels)在總結(jié)這項(xiàng)研究結(jié)果時(shí)表示：“經(jīng)過幾個(gè)月的調(diào)查、分析、音樂理論崩潰、采訪與作者和作曲家最親近的人的采訪，我們自己聽這首歌，關(guān)注它給我們帶來的內(nèi)心感受，我們完全可以肯定地說，克里斯·馬丁創(chuàng)作出”修復(fù)你“的旋律時(shí)，可能感覺很低落，甚至可能已經(jīng)完全窒息了。”這項(xiàng)研究的結(jié)論來自于一次超過80次的統(tǒng)計(jì)模擬運(yùn)行，幾乎所有這一切都決定了馬丁別無選擇，只能在歌曲創(chuàng)作過程中的關(guān)鍵時(shí)刻痛哭流涕。
“One especially detailed analysis suggested a roughly 90% probability that, while first conceiving the lyrics “Lights will guide you home/And I will try to fix you,” a single tear dropped from Martin’s left eye onto the keys of his piano, where it reflected a perfect image of the room’s single candle. Seriously, just listen to it. This guy was definitely all torn up inside about something.”
“一項(xiàng)特別詳細(xì)的分析(大約有90%的可能性)表明，在第一次構(gòu)思歌詞“燈光將引導(dǎo)你回家/我會(huì)試著修復(fù)你”時(shí)，一滴眼淚從馬丁的左眼落到他鋼琴的琴鍵上，在那里它反映了房間里唯一的蠟燭的完美形象。說真的聽聽就好了。這家伙肯定是因?yàn)槭裁词露凰毫训摹?ldquo;
Popular music scholars are claiming the study’s findings represent one of the field’s greatest discoveries since the groundbreaking 1995 study that confirmed that Alanis Morisette was very, very mad and stomped her feet when she wrote “You Oughta Know.”
流行音樂學(xué)者聲稱，這項(xiàng)研究的結(jié)果代表了該領(lǐng)域自1995年開創(chuàng)性研究以來最偉大的發(fā)現(xiàn)之一，該研究證實(shí)了阿拉尼斯·莫里塞特非常瘋狂，在她寫《你應(yīng)該知道》時(shí)踩踏了她的腳。
