SPEAK GEM ARCHER GUITARIST OASIS "We can not be bigger"
绿洲吉他手 甘阿契 说: 我们不能更伟大了
...By Daniel Jimenez...
In three days of action for the fourth time in Argentina, Oasis is in the
final stretch of his 2009 world tour, which will culminate in November in the
United Kingdom. Until then, the road will be long and tiring. And fun, of
course. "What surprises me is that in South America are all mad, and as we
know they are crazy, we like to go there," says an excited phone Gem, and a
strip center for Argentine fans: "In North America is not the same, we take
everything very seriously. You are really crazy,man. "
绿洲第四次造访阿根廷,将停留三天,并在11月在英国划下2009世界巡回的句点. 在那之前,
旅途将是漫长而累人的. 当然也是有趣的. "让我感到惊讶的 是南美有够疯狂 正因为我们
知道他们很疯狂 所以我们很喜欢到那去" Gem在电话上兴奋地说道. "在北美不一样,我们
什麽事都看得很严肃, 你们真的是很疯狂,老兄" 这主要是对阿根廷歌迷说.
Since its debut in Buenos Aires Luna Park to seven thousand people in 1998
to visit this Sunday at the River Plate stadium, where fans are expected
forty-thousand..."We have fans Italians, Spaniards, Germans and everywhere
is the same passion, the rock and roll is the universal language," Archer
defines and reveals the secret of eternal youth rocker "looks good, works
hard, plays hard."
从1998年第一次在布宜诺斯艾利斯Luna Park对7000名听众演出,到本周日造访Rive Plate
体育馆,预计将有4万名歌迷..."我们的歌迷来自义大利.西班牙.德国和世界各地,他们都
有同样的热情,摇滚乐是世界共同的语言"Gem向年轻摇滚乐手透露 永恒的秘密:"看起来
有型.认真工作,努力弹奏(玩??)."
Q: Noel Gallagher said in an interview that you were better guitarist than him.
Given that take ten years in the banda, do you think the guitarist of Oasis?
Noel在某次访谈中说你比他更会弹奏吉他. 加上你已经在这个乐团十年了,你身为绿洲
吉他手有什麽看法?
A: Lol, that's a compliment of Noel, which I appreciate, of course. He likes
all the guys play as North, that is why it says (Gem was born in Durham in
northeast England). The truth is that you never thought in those terms. I
have a different style to that of Noel and he is responsible for doing solos,
I'm going over to the center of the base rhythm. Furthermore, to see, Who do
you think is going to play the guitar solo on Live forever? Noel is going to
play, come on ... As for my playing, it's the only thing I do for years, so
it should do well (laughs).
大笑,当然我很感激Noel的夸奖啦. 所有弹起吉他有北方风格的人他都喜欢,(甘出生在
北英格兰的Durham) 其实你不会那样去思考事情啦. 我跟Noel的风格不同. 他负责独
奏.我则是弹基本节奏. 而且,你看是谁在弹 Live Forever的吉他独奏? Noel啊, Come
on... 至於我的演奏,这是我几年来唯一从事的工作,当然要弹得很好啦(笑).
Q: Being the guitarist of Oasis is the best job in the world?
当绿洲的吉他手 是世界最棒的工作?
A: Without the slightest shadow of doubt.
当然,不带一丝怀疑.
Q: And being in the midst of two hurricanes also called Liam and Noel?
即使是被夹在Liam和Noel两团飓风之间也是?
A: No (pauses) ... is not anywhere near the best job in the world (laughs).
不(停顿)...这根本和世界上最棒的工作沾不上边(笑).
But that Oasis is the most insignificant case will generate tension, no
matter what it is. Everything is going to be tense. Nothing will ever be
bored at Oasis. And standing in the midst of two hurricanes as Liam and
Noel is like getting a bat at all times in the head, but it's good for your
music (laughs).
在绿洲.最微不足道的事也能造成剑拔弩张的局面,...夹在Liam和Noel两团暴风之间,
就好像老是被人家用球拍打头.但这对音乐有好处.(笑)
Q: Compose your songs and sustained one of the most stable members of the band
in the last decade. Do you still feel intimidated by you when you present a
Christmas song?
有自己的歌曲创作,而且身为过去十年乐团撑最久的稳定成员之一,你推出一首圣诞歌时,
还是会感到胆怯吗?
A: Now no longer, but it used to be so, definitely. When I started, things
were different, man, was playing on Oasis, my idols. I remember in the
early days Andy (Bell, bassist joining the group next to Archer) and I
assembled enough courage to try to raise our songs to a group that was
famous throughout the world and had a great composer . But when I look
back now is beautiful, as when we recorded Heathen Chemistry or when we
play the old songs live, I know that I will always be able to play because
he composed the Noel and already "there." Noel has been writing great rock
classics of all time, we still feel a nervousness especially when he and I
compose together. Is the guy who wrote Live Forever, Champagne Supernova,
Do not Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall, Supersonic ... then give you, man
(laughs).
现在不会了,但是以前铁定会. 刚开始时,事情截然不同,老兄,我在绿洲弹吉他ㄟ,我的
偶像ㄟ!! 我记得早期Andy和我要汇集足够的勇气,才能试着向这个全球知名的乐团
还有超棒作曲家,提出自己的歌曲. 但现在回头看,觉得很美,当我们在录Heathen
Chemistry或当我们现场演奏从前的歌时, 我知道我永远能弹奏,因为Noel写出这首歌,
而且已经存在在那里. Noel已写下超棒的摇滚经典. 我们仍会感到紧张,特别是我和他
一起作曲时. 这个人可是写下Live Forever, Champagne Supernova, Don't Look
Back in Anger, Wonderwall, Supersonic...给你的人ㄟ,老兄(笑).
...
"There is an Oasis style to compose songs. When you hear a song you know that
Liam is Oasis, "he explains. "One helps shape the style, but when Andy and I
arrived the band already had a definite style. This track in particular, To
be where there's life, I tried to do a song that had no guitars, not even a
sound. I wanted to write a classic song by Oasis might be playing in a club,
I say more on the dance floor of a club after midnight. Plus, this is the
best time! "
他解释道:绿洲有一种作曲风格. 当你听到一首歌你就知道Liam就是绿洲(??). 每个人都会
协助形塑风格,但当Andy和我加入时,乐团已经有固定风格. To be where there's life
这首歌,是我特别尝试写一首没有吉他的歌,连一声也没有. 我想写为绿洲一首经典,可以
在club播放,在午夜过後的club舞池. 还有,这是最棒的时光!
Q: When do you write a song thinking about how to interpret the Liam?
你在写歌时会想怎麽让Liam来诠释吗?
A: Sometimes, yes, but this song was different. I had the inspiration to the
top without asking and no thought for anyone in particular. Noel played
with the most to remove it quickly and then I started to think about in my
head for Liam. It's strange what happened with Liam. There are people
all over the world it imitates, until there is a boy seven years on YouTube
singing like him. I recently played in Taipei (Taiwan) and the public so
that fans had imitated, and that happened to one generation and then another
one. It's amazing what it generates.
有时会,但这首歌不同. 我的灵感涌现,没有特别为谁量身打造.Noel弹了一大段,然後否
决了(??). 然後我就开始构思让Liam来唱. Liam有一种很奇怪的特质(??) 世界各地有
很多人模仿他. 最近有一个七岁的男孩在Youtube上唱腔很像他. 我最近在台北(台湾)
演唱,歌迷会模仿,这是一代传一代的. 这引发的影响不可思议.
Q: Recently, Noel said Oasis may stop playing for five years. Is this true?
最近,Noel说绿洲会暂停5年.是真的吗?
A: It may be true ... or perhaps you have to do with this point of the tour,
where sometimes we all feel a bit like that. We are on the road for eight
months and recently we will finish the tour in November this year, and
sometimes feel the need to zoom out for a while. Probably we all need a
time out of Oasis to cool ideas, write new songs, starting to record demos
and stuff. It is a long process and the end of the tour are missing
several months, so I do not know what is really going to do next.
可能是真的...也可能是我们在巡回的这个时间点上,有时候大家都有点这样的想法.
我们已经巡回8个月了.最近在今年十一月将完成巡回. 我们八成都需要一点时间,
脱离绿洲,冷却想法,写些新歌,开始录制试唱带等等, 这是一个漫长的过程. 巡回结
束还要好几个月(??)我不知道接下来实际要做什麽.
Q: How is the relationship between you?
你们之间关系如何?
A: In-vivo has never been better. I could tell that we are "on fire". Off
stage, too, in every sense (laughs). We have new drummer (Chris Sharrock,
who was playing with Robbie Williams, the archenemy of Liam) are in the
midst of a very long tour and everything is fantastic. Today we live in a
set that you broke the head and that is very dynamic, so this is a great
moment, beyond the logic of a tour fatigue. I guess we can no longer be
larger than we are, but large enough Oasis. Do we need more fans? We have
millions of fans around the world, what more? Why do I want to be bigger?
Today we hope to become ourselves rather than be larger.
不能再好啦(??)我可以感觉到我们"着火了".下台後也是一样,从各方面来说(笑).我
们有新鼓手,在一段很长的巡回中,每件事都棒透了...这是很棒的一刻,超越巡回弹性
疲乏的逻辑. 我猜我们不能再更伟大了,绿洲够伟大了.我们还需要更多歌迷吗?我们
在全球有上百万歌迷,难道还需要更多吗? 我怎麽会想要变得更伟大呢?现在我们更想
做自己而不是变得更伟大.
Q: Oasis was everything you'd expect?
绿洲能满足你所有期望吗?
A: Yes and no. For me, living in London in the nineties, Oasis was a cultural
revolution. When I joined them expected what you would expect from a giant
banda Oasis. And imagine what a banda stadium there, which was somewhat
imagined. What you might not expect is for me the only important thing was
the music and nothing else. I was pleasantly surprised and is still
happening: we enter a room, plug and play. It's that simple. The first
time I played with Oasis not tested sound, just go up, plugged in and went
to break it. There is no Madonna or any rock star, no one is by the fame
or the money, but for music. That's why I am here.
可以说是,也可以说不是.对我来说,住在90年代的伦敦,绿洲是一场文化革命.当我加入
他们时,怀着你对一个超伟大绿洲乐团的期待...对我来说唯一重要的是音乐...我们
走进一个房间,插上插头开始演奏. 就这麽简单...这不是玛丹娜或其它摇滚巨星,不是
为了名利,而是为了音乐. 这是我在这里的原因.
