爱情的玩笑 Kathryn Willams - I Started A Joke 1
I started a joke
which started the whole 2 world crying
but i didn't see
i started to cry
which started the whole world laughing
that the joke was on me
i looked at the skies
running 5 my hands over my eyes
and i fell 6 out of bed
hurting my head from things that i'd said 7
till 8 i finally 9 died 10
which started the whole world living 11
oh if i'd only seen
that the joke was on me
i looked at the skies
running my hands over my eyes
and i fell out of bed
hurting my head from things that i'd said
till i finally died
which started the whole world living
oh if i'd only seen
that the joke was one me
i started a joke...
简 介
1974年出生于英国利物浦的Kathryn Williams首张专辑‘Dog Leap 12 Stairs’发行于1999年，与2000年的‘Little Black Numbers’都由自创的CAW唱片公司出版。2002年才进入主流唱片公司发行‘Old Low 13 Light’，所以‘Relations’已是她的第四张专辑。Kathryn喜欢听一些六○年代的摇滚，且受Bob Dylan、Nina Simone、Tim Buckley、Van Morrison、Leonard Cohen、Velvet Underground、Nick Cave等艺人的影响，因此乐风属于民谣，但并非英国传统民谣，反而偏向美国的新民谣，像是早期Suzanne Vega的风格；另外国外媒体也多将作曲家兼歌手的Kathryn与才华洋溢的Joni Mitchell比较。
受这么多前辈的启发，Kathryn决定制作一张老歌新唱的专辑，‘Relations’于焉诞生，不过取材不局限于六○年代的歌曲或民谣，原唱或原作者有些是大家耳熟能详，例如尼尔扬、Leonard Cohen，还有比吉斯、Velvet Underground、超脱…等团体，但是翻唱的歌很少是这些艺人的流行排行曲；还有些更是非主流团及歌手，像Pavement、Ivor Cutler…。CD内页里Kathryn详细地解说了每首歌从选曲到演唱的心情，除让听者对这些歌的背景有所了解，她干净的嗓音呈现了与原曲不同的风格，更是整张专辑独特之处，仿佛是现今一片嘻哈、电子声中的一股清流。（摘自网络）
