爵士小天后:《七年》



Seven years       


By Norah Jones



Spinning, laughing, dancing

To her favorite song

A little girl with nothing wrong

Is all alone

Eyes wide open



Always hoping for the sun

And she'll sing her song to anyone that comes along



Fragile 1 as a leaf in autumn

Just falling to the ground

Without a sound



Crooked 2 little smile on her face

Tells a tale of grace

That's all her own



Fragile as a leaf in autumn

Just falling to the ground

Without a sound



Spinning, laughing, dancing

To her favorite song

She's a little girl with nothing wrong

And she's all alone



A little girl with nothing wrong

And she's all alone



中文歌词 



七年      by  诺拉·琼斯



旋转,欢笑,曼舞

伴着她最喜欢的歌

女孩和往常一样

独自享受这一刻



张开眼睛

永远都期盼着太阳

她会对每个同伴唱她的歌



就像秋季的落叶一样脆弱

飘落地面

没有一丝声响



她脸上闪过些微皎洁的微笑

轻轻述说一个优雅的故事

完全属于她的故事



就像秋季的落叶一样脆弱

飘落地面

没有一丝声响



旋转,欢笑,曼舞

伴着她最喜爱的歌

女孩和往常一样

独自享受这一刻



歌手简介



爵士新公主诺拉·琼斯出生于纽约。她是传奇人物、著名吉他手拉维·仙卡的女儿,但她本人则完全是由其母亲苏抚养长大的。



诺拉·琼斯在音乐上受到的最早影响来自于她母亲所收藏的大量唱片。5岁时,她开始在教堂唱诗班唱歌,两年后开始学习钢琴,初中时候一度演奏过低音萨克斯管。15岁,诺拉·琼斯进入“干净灵魂美声”Booker T. Washington 中学主修表演及视觉艺术,从此与爵士乐结下不解之缘。



2000年秋,诺拉·琼斯签约Blue Note,成为Blue Note音乐大厂中最年轻的爵士女伶。



2003年,年仅23岁的诺拉凭借专辑“Come Away With Me”一举赢得了45届格莱美年度最佳唱片、年度最佳专辑、年度最佳单曲、年度最佳新人等八项大奖,成为当届格莱美最大赢家。全球乐坛都对这位拥有超龄才华和甜美歌声的女孩做出了惊人的一致好评,风光程度令人咋舌。



Norah Jones 追求音乐的多变性,探究各种形式与风格。让歌迷苦等两年后,在她的第二张专辑《feels like home》中,诺拉蜕变出更加娴熟圆融的风格,相对于第一张专辑的“少女表情”,新专辑兼具都市利落感和叙事的温暖性,小公主的歌生依旧清新温暖,轻松驾驭蓝调,爵士,灵魂,乡村到拉丁乐,她的出现,为久未有惊喜的爵士乐坛,灌注了一丝青春活力。
