时间Sat Sep 12 19:57:14 2009
※ 引述《cherified (榭俐霏)》之铭言:
: 这篇文章也是从上面那个古老的网站中抓来的!!
: 资讯还是一样跟现在有点落差喔,有请三剑客帮忙更新补完啊!!! (拜)
: 原本想要一次贴完的,但是批踢踢好容易当机喔,我的批币都飞了 T T
: 所以还是分个两三次贴好了
版主辛苦了。本来想帮忙把每句都翻成中文,大家读起来比较轻松,
可是这些句子实在太 多 啦!!所以我也发表一点感想就好... 囧
: -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
: Not only can Graham play the guitar and shitloads of other instruments, sing,
: write and paint, he also HAS LOTS TO SAY !
: 1. "I bought Cinnamon and Golden Grahams and these indie kids in the shop
: laughed at me. It was funny but embarrassing."
: (绵羊何不用你的大牙反咬回去呢!!! 噢不年少时期可是很以和为贵的,
: 可能是难搞的绵羊基因尚未突变,也有可能後来才进入拟态模式??????)
当时的情况他应该只是觉得很害羞又很好笑吧 XD
Golden Grahams长这样
http://tinyurl.com/n3cmgb
: 2. (If you had a superpower what would it be ?) "The US. I'd make it small
: enough to fit in my spare room. Then George Bush would be ant sized and I'd
: put him in a matchbox so he couldn't come out."
: (葛拉拉是个美国小孩,具体点说应该是德裔美国小孩
: 他除了穿衣风格稍稍英国以外,还是比较像德国人跟美国人!!!)
他是标准英国小孩。
葛拉爸是驻德国的军乐队,所以小葛拉出生後在德国待过几年,
他过世的爷爷教过他讲一点德文,除此之外他跟一般英国小朋友没两样。
: 3. "Being a dad is amazing, yeah. That's where I'm learning more about me
: than anywhere else, from this little girl who doesn't really know what is
: happening in the world. Doesn't know anything. She's helped me become the
: emperor of myself really."
: (潜在的 control freak!!)
没有控制狂这麽严重啦 XDDD
养育女儿那种被需要的感觉,让他感受到自己也有照顾别人的能力,
这点让一向缺乏自信且生活一度失控的葛拉稍微找回信心。
: 4. (What do you think of the Gorillaz stuff?) "That's a tough question.
: (long pause) And now I'll leave it at that! No, it's cool, Damon's doing his
: thing, and he needs to do his thing. We all do. You know, I don't expect
: anybody to particularly like my stuff. And I think that's the healthiest way
: you can make music really, not expecting people to like it."
: (这应该是有点年纪以後说的话了,标准的後期访问风格
: 不过gorillaz也是要到葛拉拉三十岁以後才比较上轨道不是吗:P)
: 5. (Are you pissed off with Gorillaz becoming more popular than Blur?)
: "No i'm not, although i'd like to know who's buying Gorillaz. But it's good
: because it's Damon's. He's doing what he wants to do. I think it's obviously
: going to be more popular than Blur stuff because it's of a substandard nature
: to Blur stuff. The music is pretty good but the more popular a thing is in
: this country, the more rubbish it is. It'd be best if people listened to
: simpler music, stuff that resonates more soulfully."
: (同上,但他也间接承认大门猴是blur的主导人)
嗯,Gorillaz我也很喜欢。他们在英国以外真的比Blur红很多,
在Youtube甚至有人把Gorillaz MV配上Song 2,引来路人问
"这首歌是谁唱的?声音怎麽那麽像2D?"
: 6, "I'm squeamish about seafood. I can't pull the heads off shrimps and
: things like that ; get me fingers all mucky in their eggs and peel the armour
: off. I dont like that."
: (虾很好吃耶@@ 可惜了葛拉拉)
他还是很爱吃海鲜,只是吃起来笨手笨脚,而且还吃到食物中毒。(远目)
: 7. (Do you have any phobias ?) "I used to not be able to walk up Parkway
: (busy Camden thoroughfare). I'd completely avoid it because I thought people
: would be making comments about me. I suppose that's what comes with being a
: slightly recognisable figure around here, you wonder what people are gonna
: be saying. "
: (戴口罩跟帽子不就好了!!即使很怪,那就太阳眼镜吧,好像也挺怪的齁!)
英国似乎不流行变装那套?
葛拉那麽害羞又很介意别人对他的看法,难怪都宅在家上网。
: 8, (If you were Prime Minister, what would you do ?) "Change the national
: anthem to nothing. I don't like nationality."
: (很不英国的一面)
他只是对政治化的议题不感兴趣。
: 9. (Are you good in bed ?) "Absolutely. Not. I'm very good at sleeping.
: I go to sleep very quick. I don't know about shagging. I can be good,
: i can be awful. I think i'm quite selfless."
: (葛拉拉有一个倾向:回答不想回答的问题都会spaced out!! 乱讲一通)
他不是故意的,离题太远+碎碎念是他的风格。XD
这个应该表示他在床上比较投入於配合对方...
版上可以出现这种话题吗?!(羞)
: 10. "Graham's fans seem to be really fucking mad. Alex fans just seem to be
: mad. The classic fanbase of people that like Damon are completely fine.
: I just seem to attract complete nutters."
: (让我想到大门猴曾经说"葛拉拉的fans都会想吃了他"
: 烤羊肉真的不错啊~~羊肉炉也很好吃~~)
绵羊何时变成官方外号了?(爆)
如果常去Blur官方讨论区的人应该不难发现,葛拉常有超级热情的粉丝,
这些粉丝的ID不外是Graham's Angel, Graham's Chic, Miss Graham之类,
特别是南美洲粉丝示爱相当激烈 XDDD
他的亚洲粉丝也很多,表达方式比较倾向普遍级。
: 11. "The obsessive psychos that are our original fanbase, you know,
: they're the ones I like... Our original audiences, they're the people
: I'm the most fond of, not the people who just do what the TV tells them
: to do."
: (fashion is doing the things you're told, innit? by吉他手06四月号)
葛拉拉说过,厉害的粉丝连他在小地方弹错都会发现,
有次他还很开心地说这些专业粉丝很变态(当然是葛式称赞)。
: 12. "I think it's better if blokes can admit that they can have crushes
: on other blokes. I've probably had crushes but never really sexual crushes
: on men."
: (葛拉拉对男人没有幻想!!!大叔fans要哭哭罗)
错,他对男人常常有幻想!...... 我开玩笑的...吧。
此人前阵子才对Kevin Ayers大发花痴,
还在自己的讨论区宣布Ayers是他最新一任老公,(可见还有前几任呢)
并且把签名档换成Ayers帅照一张。在家边泡澡边听Ayers的歌... 啧啧。
难怪大叔们都要用雄厚的声音对他示爱:Graham You're so great!
他(也)喜欢女生啦,大家别误会。
: 13. "I crapped on my jumper. I wanted to poo and I forgot it was tied around
: my waist. I had to throw it into someone's garden."
: (好恶心XDDDDDDDDDD)
这个是在讲他第一次喝醉的经验,大便大在毛衣上。笨蛋 XDDDD
: 14. "Being run over is quite scary,actually - You have that split second when
: you say 'ooh, crikey!' shut your eyes, grit your teeth and bounce off the
: bonnet. I had to ask a copper if I was dead."
: (这个在访问葛拉拉代言cordings那篇报导里面有!!
: 其实想起来那场景应该还颇无脑的...年少轻狂啊)
他被车撞过两次,两次都是都是喝醉的状态下不小心被撞,
还有媒体乱揣测他可能想轻生,不过葛拉说两次都纯属意外。
: 15. "I'm trying to learn skateboard at the moment. I tried to skate in
: bare feet, bad idea. I completely cut up my toes."
: (好吧我相信你曾经是滑板男孩,但老了别再做这种事情啦免得骨头散掉!!)
以前他会在休息室溜过来溜过去,Alex那时候躺在地上睡觉,贴了一张纸条:
"警告葛拉:不准在我头旁边溜滑板!敢吵醒我的话
我就把那块该死的滑板折断丢出窗外!"
葛拉将兴趣转到玩重机已经好几年罗,30岁以後玩滑板可能要忍耐别人异样的眼光。
不过上次他接受NME采访,房间的书桌底下还是放着一个滑板。
: 16. "Spiders are cool but I'm still scared of them . But I don't kill them."
: (可以想像他看到蜘蛛尖叫的画面吗!!!!
: 或是他可以跟蜘蛛说: oochy woochy XDDDD)
昨天有人在他讨论区贴了一张蜘蛛照片,他哀号:
"那是什麽外星来的鬼玩意!把照片拿掉,不然我只好拿掉我的眼睛!"
: 17. "My old flat is covered with carcasses of mosquitos all over the walls
: because I never bothered to clean up , as a warning."
: (the god of mess-ups again)
把蚊子屍体留在墙壁上以警告其他蚊子 ----
不知道该说他很可爱还是很邋遢。
: 18. "I'm a Christian without God. I'm an agnostic erection boy.
: Whatever that means... Barman! Barman!"
: (他只相信酒神dionysus吧!!)
他没有特别信什麽教,对於未知的力量持宁可信其有的态度,
他相信世界上有小精灵和小仙子,还在花园帮他们小盖房子。 XD
: 19. "I'm perfectly charming and then at the point where I start forgetting
: what's happening I get drunk and that's when I turn into a horrible bastard."
: (在喝醉以外的时刻我都是很迷人的唷~啾咪!!!)
清醒的葛拉对外是个礼貌的好孩子,对熟人意见比较多,难以取悦,
有点醉意的葛拉会搞笑也特别活泼,烂醉的葛拉是个恐怖的神经病。
: 20. "You have to learn to keep your mouth shut when you have to get any
: drinks in."
: (有加菲猫的感觉)
有段时间他就是学不乖,酒来张口。那是他逃避现实的方式。
: 21. (about alcohol) "Chocolate does the same thing to your happy centres.
: But you can't have ten Mars Bars and be rolling around on the floor insulting
: people and shouting and crying for no reason. Which is a shame. Heheheh."
: (巧克力比起酒来还是略逊一筹因为他不会使你醉orz)
食用巧克力跟酒都会让人快乐,但是吃再多巧克力都没办法让你在地上打滚
边骂人边大哭大叫借酒装疯,这是巧克力可惜之处,嘿嘿。
真令人伤脑筋啊,葛拉。
喔对了,他很喜欢吃巧克力这类甜食。
: 22. "If I was one of my friends, Graham Coxon would be the person I most
: likely saw stopped drinking."
: (一度曾经是不可能的任务啊)
幸好现在戒了。他还活着真是个奇蹟,希望他继续保持下去。
: 23. "When I started to swear at furniture, I knew it was time to stop drinking"
: (XDDD 家具跟人傻傻分不清楚)
那画面还蛮好笑的,此人是个烂酒鬼。
: 24. "Cynicism is something I really dislike, and the thing about becoming
: soberer and clearer is that a lot of cynicism disappears. I don't want to
: be a bloke who shies away from emotion."
: (这段话有很怪的矛盾)
不晓得这段话有没有漏字...
他的意思大致是说葛拉个性很直,遇到讨厌的东西喜欢直接反应意见,
喝醉的他可以尽情取笑不喜欢的事物,可是没有酒精的帮助,
生性害羞的葛拉无法畅所欲言,他不喜欢这样害羞的自己。
(我看他在讨论区酸人酸得倒是很开心呀 XDDD)
: 25. (on being asked whether he'd quit drinking for good)
: "I still drink non-alchoolic drinks"
: (比方说红牛提神饮料啊)
还有可口可乐啊... 咖啡,还有加了糖的茶。
: 26. "When you drink and smoke you kind of float around.
: That's why these straight-edge bands are so uptight. I couldn't imagine
: being teetotal forever. I like to be a bit of everything. Yeah, I am drinking
: at the moment, but not too much."
: (葛拉拉应该会很向往中国式的神游太虚幻境,oh such an oriental touch!!)
小酌几杯无伤大雅。
: 27. "Me giving up drinking was like a miracle."
: (i cannot agree more!)
: 28. "We used to drink so much. I'd have a bottle of wine under the chair
: my amp was sat on and I'd swig my way trough that."
: (感觉很像捷运上偷吃槟榔的大叔!!!!)
整团都很爱喝,他跟大门在95年以前常常在台上烂醉,特别是美国巡回期间。
: 29. "Jack Daniels makes us all puke."
: (哈哈哈)
: 30. "I don't like drugs - never liked drugs. I'm not a very good creature
: for things like that, I haven't got enough confidence."
: (其实是怕吸毒人会变丑吧!! 葛拉拉这麽爱漂亮!!!)
葛拉自制力比较差,他说过自己不像大门抽烟嗑药想戒就戒,
如果他当年沾了毒品... 後果不堪设想。
: 31. "Words I use for 'excellent' are brilliant, smart, decent, ace.
: And we use 'blinking' instead of a real swear word, like when you're
: with your grandmother."
: (很基本的绵羊用语!!)
还有 "bah!" XD
: 32. "Of course I'm an hedonist, what else worth living for?
: The rest is just killing time really.. "
: (这一看也知道至少是五~十年前说的话!!)
倒觉得这句话相当有道理... 活在当下! >D<
: 33. "I'm attracted to trauma. I like things like that.I'm a born martyr."
: (真的是天生要葬在忠烈祠的那种...下面还有一段说他为了女朋友冷战而撞衣柜!!!)
此人天生多愁善感,大门说葛拉很像那种会掏出手帕来咳血的古代诗人,
葛拉边笑却没有否认 XD
: 34. "After Blur , I'll get married."
: (你现在也还没结婚啊不是吗XD)
有女朋友啦,这回不知可以撑多久。当年最想结婚的人到现在还是没找到伴。
: 35. "We're very dissatisfied with anything that isn't slightly...twisted.
: I like people like John Lennon who are stars in a totally anti-star way."
: (说得好)
他本身就是这样 - star in a totally anti-star way.
cool in a totally un-cool way. XD
: 37. "I hate the video for "Country House". I love the song, but
: the association with it has become Page Three and Benny hill instead of
: Blur."
: (这MV的确还蛮糟的XD)
这支MV最没意义的就是那些活脱来自色情杂志的辣妹,
还上演"唷呵呵来追我啊"的老派戏码,
导演Damien Hirst品味的确很糟。
: 38. "If I’d done what I was supposed to do in the "Country House" video
: I would have had a lobotomy by now. I was supposed to do all sorts of nasty
: things – getting bottoms in my face and chasing girls."
: (这MV一定多半是alex出的主意... 我承认我对他有偏见)
你得到他了。Alex跟导演很麻吉,葛拉当年被逼着下海演出,相当不爽。
: 39. "Damon ?? sexy ?? He's about as sexy as a stuffed fish , pal!"
: (嬉皮式的死鱼XDDDD)
这个是某张大门演唱会照片的注解,那时有很多少女觉得大门很性感,
可是那张照片的大门流很多汗看起来有点恍神,於是葛拉在旁边喊
-- "大门?性感?他的性感程度跟餐桌上肚子塞馅料的烤鱼差不多!"
不过葛拉有在其他场合称赞过大门长得很帅。XD
: 40. "Damon wasn't liked (at school) and I thought he was a vain wanker."
: (wanker这字用得很精确!!!)
啊哈哈哈,对熟人的吐槽毫不留情。大门以前在学校常常因白目被揍。
: 41. (on Damon) "I used to come around and see him and he'd play this
: weird stuff that was endless piano, with no singing in it at all. It was
: just nuts."
: (绵羊大炮)
这是在讲以前他们在学校刚认识的时候,当时大门的创作和表现慾望就很旺盛,
没事喜欢弹些小曲炫技。殊不知往後好多年,Blur的歌曲多半由此方式生出,
大门先随兴弹奏,葛拉在旁边以吉他应和,碰撞出火花後,
团员们以这段旋律延伸出完整的一首歌。这就是两人无可取代的默契。
: 42. "Damon will always have extremes. When we were at school together,
: he would always be duffed up in the toilets. We used to go out on the town
: and he'd get beaten up by the New Model Army crew. We used to go to a pub
: called The Cups, and every time I went there with Damon he'd go to the bog
: and he'd have his beating up. And he'd go: 'Graham, Graham, I've just been
: beaten up.' And I'd go: 'Oh my God.' So he'd go: 'I'm going'. And I'd say:
: 'No, stay, have another drink.' And then he'd go, and I'd stay behind and
: get drunk with the people who beat him up."
: (两个人都是烂嘴如泥的酒鬼,下面还有一段说葛拉拉是人型脚踏垫更好笑!!)
这段一直是我很喜欢的往事!非常好笑 XDDDD
那时候他们还在念书,不是酒鬼,只是跟一般英国年轻人一样去酒吧鬼混,
可是大门常常得罪人,被揍之後跑去跟葛拉抱怨:葛拉我们回家好不好?
葛拉就回答:老天啊(漫不经心貌) 大门说:我想走了。
葛拉就拗他:别走嘛再喝一杯。 於是大门就摸摸鼻子回家,
葛拉留下来跟刚刚揍大门的人一起喝酒。XD
由这段往事可以看出葛拉是做人比较成功的那个,
年少无知的大门老是被揍,实在又可怜又好笑。
: 43. "Damon is a self-centred fucker sometimes."
: (牡羊座的人好像都这样XD 哈哈我跟大门同星座)
Yes he is, but he means no harm.
: 44. "If Damon goes on about football and Page Three girls, that means
: we all get associated with it. I hate football and I hate Page Three Girls,
: but people always want to hear Damon's opinion."
: (没办法谁叫大门比较三八啊)
他是主唱嘛,也是创作核心之一。媒体总是比较注意主唱。
: 45. "It seems that Damon and I are going to be in each other's lives musically
: forever, in some way or other. Whether it's with Blur or without Blur or sort
: of like the Old Gits, probably. Which is quite an amusing thought. We just
: get on very well, especially musically."
: (你们一定是生命共同体的啊^^ 两人上辈子说不定是夫妻)
我很喜欢这段的描述,他们两人的音乐默契不是盖的,
很高兴他们俩破镜重圆,希望以後可以听到新的作品。
: 46. The first thing Damon ever said to me was that his shoes were more
: expensive than mine. Eventually, he went off to work in drama school in
: London."
: (大门猴小小年纪就掉入物欲的火坑啊...阿弥陀佛)
也不是说物欲,大门应该是个几乎没有物欲的人(以有钱人来讲),
小时候大门的家境是四人当中最好,他又是个直来直往说话毫不客气的人,
当年两人见面的时候,葛拉穿着一双皮鞋,大门就指指自己的皮鞋嚣张地说:
"你看,这才是真正的好货。" (由此可见为何大门老是被人揍)
葛拉的意思是,大门行为戏剧化老爱引人注目,所以最後真的去上戏剧学校。
: 47. (on "The Great Escape" period)"Damon and I were becoming like
: Business Associates, whenever we'd see each other we had to dress up
: in suits and clean our teeth."
: (那你们其他时间都在干麻)
葛拉指的是他跟团员关系恶化的时期,有段时间他跟大门冷战不讲话,
见面的时候不像朋友,反而像生意人,很可悲其实。
: 48. "I hate a lot of things that Alex stands for.I don't want people to think
: it's what this band is about. All that Groucho Club bollocks and him going on
: about birds and boozing all the time, I hate that."
: (绵羊对把妹痛饮的活动不感兴趣...只喜欢弹吉他)
一个高调,一个低调的差别。
Alex喜欢泡夜店把妹,对Alex来说,Blur的走红使他在各派对无往不利,
还可以结识各界名流,简直置身天堂。
然而对害羞的葛拉来说,Alex喜爱的生活方式是他痛恨的,
成名之後的压力和社交场合反而是地狱。
: 49. "It's nothing bad between me and Alex. It's just to do with sense of
: humour. We're very similar. If he wants to try and be in The Average White
: Band then I'm going to be in the Gang Of Four. I'm cutting against him all
: the time, because he's, like, a sexy musician and I feel... shy and clumsy.
: So I try and fuck up his funk. It's basically teenage party jealousy."
: (dun every say that!! 绵羊类型的男人会越老越帅!!)
嘿嘿,绵羊的嫉妒。Alex是典型的风流帅哥,葛拉觉得自己是个阿宅。
然而我们都是被他的宅吸引呀!
: 50. "Alex's idea of glamour is my idea of death, really."
: (XD 可想而知)
品味相差十万八千里。 XD
不过他们其实蛮要好的,生日都会互送礼物或一起庆祝,
特别是Alex对葛拉可说是赞不绝口,频频示好。
: 51. "You become totally aware of your every action. It's a very weird thing
: not to be able to walk to the shops without thinking of yourself as the
: guitarist in Blur walking to the shops."
: (嗯嗯)
跟以前比起来,现在应该比较自在了吧。虽然还是喜欢宅在家。
: 52. "I don't feel famous at all. I've noticed it, and I suppose it's become
: an effort to be unfamous. It's crude, but the idea I have of myself is of
: someone who's getting pints of milk on the corner in the morning."
: (incentive!! 若你有在牛奶公司上班的话,
: 我一定会订购你们的牛奶,而且每天早上都会站在家门口等你送过来XDDD)
这又让我想到他很喜欢开牛奶车(Country House那台),说过想当牛奶工人。
好可爱。
好长.......!! 已经不知多久没浮上水面po文...
另外两篇有空再回覆。囧
