Katie Melua这个19岁的俄罗斯少女,她的声音清澈甜美,带着一种天然的穿透力,好像误入凡间的天使,天籁之音在她慵懒的蓝调爵士中娓娓到来。

淡淡的忧伤,据说词曲都是她自己写的。大概只有深深爱过的人才能写出这样深刻悲伤的意境吧,哪怕你离我而去,我也明白,失去了爱情就算再痛再伤,我也还是为我自己而生活在这世上的。



听着歌词,定会想到过去成就了今天自己的人们, 当初的懵懂与执着, 随着成长发现生活更多的美好,
但不忘对当初给予爱的人心怀感恩与深切祝福:
But this life was not for you
Though I learned 1 from you
That beauty need only be a whisper 2


歌词:
Song:I Cried for You
Artist:Katie Melua


You're beautiful so silently
It lies beneath a shade of blue
It struck me so violently
When I looked at you
But others pass, the never pause
To feel that magic in your hand
To me you're like a wild rose
They never understand why
I cried for you
When the sky cried for you
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter
But this life was not for you
Though I learned from you
That beauty need only be a whisper
I'll cross the sea for a different world
With your treasure, a secret for me to hold
In many years they may forget
This love of ours or that we met
They may not know
How much you meant to me
I cried for you
And the sky cried for you
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter
But this life was not for you
Though I learned from you
That beauty need only be a whisper
Without you now I see
How fragile 3 the world can be
And I know you've gone away
But in my heart you'll always stay
I cried for you
And the sky cried for you
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter
But this life was not for you
Though I learned from you
That beauty need only be a whisper
That beauty need only be a whisper
Katie拥有一种独特的嗓音,如果硬要把她当成「英国版Norah Jones」,还不如说她更接近Eva Cassidy。多变化的歌声和情绪起伏刚好和专辑要呈现的老蓝调和Jazz调调的歌曲吻合,而她擅长的吉他也有莫大发挥,加上Mike Batt的多首创作,使得《Call Off The Search》原创味道浓厚,其中她翻唱英国蓝调英雄John Mayall的64年经典曲〈Crawling Up A Hill〉流畅的演绎和歌声的掌握都让人惊艳不已;到了俏皮的〈My Aph... 全部内容»



  Katie拥有一种独特的嗓音,如果硬要把她当成「英国版Norah Jones」,还不如说她更接近Eva Cassidy。多变化的歌声和情绪起伏刚好和专辑要呈现的老蓝调和Jazz调调的歌曲吻合,而她擅长的吉他也有莫大发挥,加上Mike Batt的多首创作,使得《Call Off The Search》原创味道浓厚,其中她翻唱英国蓝调英雄John Mayall的64年经典曲〈Crawling Up A Hill〉流畅的演绎和歌声的掌握都让人惊艳不已;到了俏皮的〈My Aphrodisiac Is You〉,Katie又化身成一位柔媚歌姬,把歌词中的复古性感飙到极限,而不管是着名经典〈Learnin The Blues〉或是Randy Newman的旷世名曲〈I Think Its Going to Rain Today〉,Katie的版本同样不遑多让。当然,也有如首支单曲〈The Closest Thing To Crazy〉这般浪漫至性的恋曲,以少女的口吻娓娓道来,加上弦乐的编曲,那种举棋不定的不安自然征服人心。我特别喜欢的是〈Blame It On The Moon〉,复古的感觉,如果搭配一个落寞的爱情电影画面,会挺棒的;〈Tiger In The Night〉则有份清新的告白。 不过,要说整张专辑最让人深深动容的加分歌曲,绝对由〈Faraway Voice〉拔得头筹,这是Katie特别向偶像Eva Cassidy致敬所独自创作的歌曲,从歌声和风格都可听出她受Eva影响至深,歌曲一开始的吟唱马上让人回想到Eva歌声风采,那浓烈的想念灵魂叫人不忍却也要坚强,也看到了一位年轻歌手怎样朝偶像的步伐前进


声线兼备蓝调、民谣、爵士味道的Katie Melua,常被乐评拿来与诺拉琼丝相提并论。但她那相较甜美清澈的年轻嗓音,让人遥想起已逝的跨界流行爵士美声Eva Cassidy。而在被Mike Batt发掘的那天,Katie所演唱的正好就是受Eva启发而学下的创作曲“Faraway Voice”。此外,她也自承在音乐方面受到Queen、Joni Mitchell、Bob Dylan和印度音乐及爱尔兰民谣等多类乐风的影响。
