“今天,之所以区别于昨天,恰恰是因为昨天的感受依然在我们心中……”——《与青春有关的日子》


如果能用代表作来记载“the Cranberries 1”(“小红莓乐队”,又译“卡百利”)的成长历程,很愿意把“Dreams”比作空灵、未经尘世浊染的孩童, 把“Zombie”视为叛逆、狂野不羁的少年,把“Never grow old”看作忧伤、追逝童年的忆者。


“Dreams”中(参比王菲的翻唱版《梦中人》),主唱Dolores独特的烟音发声空灵、缥缈,恍若天外诡异的精灵;“Zombie”里(参比李宇春的翻唱版“Zombie”),Dolores用有力的唱腔发出了叛逆的宣言;“Never grow old”中,我们听到了风暴过后的舒缓与和谐,在主唱追逝童年的思绪中,过去的一切——蓝天、白云、奔跑、欢笑 —— 渐渐变得清晰、明朗……


儿童节之际,LT献上爱尔兰“小红莓乐队”的经典之作Never grow old ,谨此纪念渐行渐远的童年时光。


   Lyrics        


Never grow old       by   the Cranberries


I had a dream
Strange it may seem
It was my perfect day


Open my eyes
I realize
This is my perfect day


Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old


Do-do-do-do


Birds in the sky
They look so high
This is my perfect day


I feel the breeze 2
I feel it is
It is my perfect day


Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old


Forever young
I hope you stay
Forever young


Do-do-do-do


    中文歌词        


青春用不老       小红莓/卡百利

我做了一个梦
现在看来有点怪的梦
那天是我生命中的完美


睁开双眼
我发现
这天很完美


希望你永远年轻
希望你永远年轻
希望你永远年轻
希望你永远年轻


鸟儿在空中翱翔
它们飞的好高
这天很完美


微风轻拂
我安闲自在
这天很完美


希望你永远年轻
希望你永远年轻
希望你永远年轻
希望你永远年轻


永远年轻
我希望你
青春永驻


歌手简介 

Cranberry —— 一种微酸小浆果,中文称为“越橘”或“小红莓”。以“the Cranberries”(小红莓乐队/又称“卡百利”)命名的爱尔兰四人摇滚乐队曾是带领爱尔兰音乐走向世界的重要力量。


吉他、贝斯、鼓和独特的女声组成了这支另类摇滚乐团 —— 它融合有后英伦摇滚时代的颓废之美、迷幻音乐里特有的节奏风,以及根植于爱尔兰音乐中的空灵和飘逸。


主唱Dolores被认为是小红莓合唱团的灵魂人物,她独特的烟音发声不仅吸引了世界无数乐迷,还成为中国女歌手如王菲、辛晓琪模仿的楷模。


1993 年,the Cranberries首张专辑“Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?”问世, 随即为她们赢得了世界性的荣誉。专辑中首张单曲“Dreams”清冽的回复音色,发出了Dolores自信的宣言,并成为王菲《梦中人》效仿的楷模。


1994年,乐队第二张专辑“No Need To Argue”发行。Dolores的嗓音在这张专辑里得到了淋漓尽致的发挥,无论是“Zombie”里的高亢,还是“Dreaming my dreams”里的婉转、真假嗓音的变换和独有的高音,都让人陶醉不已。


2001年,沉寂两年的小红莓乐队第五张专辑“Wake up and smell the coffee”开始发行。透过这张专辑,乐队成员内蕴的情感获得了充分释放。歌曲“Never grow old”选自该专辑。

抛开销量、另类,甚或主唱独特的嗓音不谈,The Cranberries另一成功之处在于把握了旋律与节奏的变换,快慢相宜。他们的音乐不乏批判的成分,但其中更多的是幻想和淡淡的忧伤。在小红莓的音乐中,你可以幻想着永不成长,幻想着永远将时间定格在某个美好的瞬间,即时那个瞬间很凄美,却也美到极至。
