Ne Yo--So Sick
(MV) You may not have heard of the name Ne-Yo before, but you've more than likely heard some of his lyrics 1--specifically, on Mario's massive hit, "Let Me Love You." This talented musician wrote for a number of chart-toppers before the age of 22, penning songs for Mary J. Blige, B2K, and Faith Evans as well. After working for others, Ne-Yo--a.k.a. Shaffer Smith--decided to focus on his own career. Judging by the quality of songs on this debut 2, his creative well is not running dry anytime soon. The kick-off single, "So Sick" showcases the same tenderness evident in his Mario hit, as does much of this slow-jam heavy CD. Smith also shines on the Michael Jackson-esque "Sign Me Up," giving props 3 to the icon 4 in the chorus by singing "I just wanna rock with you" with beat-fueled bravado 5. Ne-Yo's songs come from a love of seventies and eighties soul; as a result, his music contains some unique samples, including an O'Jays lick (on the sexy "Get Down Like That," and a Switch snippet (on "It Just Ain’t Right"). Surprisingly, for such a hooked-up songwriter, he has limited the number of guest performers on the disc to just one--rapper Peedi Peedi performs on the disc opener, "Stay." The depth of the final track, "Time," clinches 6 the hunch 7; In My Own Words is an impressive debut for a seasoned songwriter, likely to make memorable 8 music for years to come.
So Sick
Lyrics
Mmmm mmm yeah
Do do do do do do do-do
Ohh Yeah
Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
Cuz right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
Cuz you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(it's ridiculous)
It's been months
And for some reason I just
(can't get over us)
And I'm stronger then this
(enough is enough)
No more walkin round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Cryin over you
And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
Gotta fix that calender I have
That's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memory
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be
That's the reason I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Stupid love songs)
Dont make me think about her smile
Or having my first child
Let it go
Turning off the radio
Cuz I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
Said I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishin you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
Why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
Why can't I turn off the radio?
歌手及歌曲介绍
Ne-Yo（原名Shaffer C. Smith）出生于美国Arkansas州一个音乐世家，自幼生活在一个单亲家庭，被母亲抚养长大。为了使Ne-Yo有更好的发展，母亲带着他移居拉斯维加斯。2004年，一直潜心创作的Ne-Yo一鸣惊人，他和马里奥（Mario）合作创作的单曲《Let Me Love You》不仅曾连续九周垄断Billboard Hot 100单曲榜，还以1亿8千9百50万次的收听次数创纪录的成为电台单周收听量最大的单曲。其中，由Ne-Yo创作的感人至深歌词更是给人留下了很深的印象。
尽管Ne-Yo很早就开始为Mary J. Blige，B2K和Faith Evans等著名歌手创作歌曲，但他的首支个人单曲《So Sick》直到去年年底才发行。随着这首《So Sick》得到了越来越多歌迷的喜爱，Ne-Yo在Def Jam发行的首张个人专辑《In My Own Words》一经发行就在Billboard 200专辑榜中成功登顶，而主打单曲《So Sick》随后也已经夺得了Billboard Hot 100单曲榜的冠军，刚刚发行首张个人专辑的Ne-Yo便已经成为美国榜的双冠王。
2006年2月，有“R&B神童”之称的美国创作型男歌手Ne-Yo发行了首张个人专辑《In My Own Words》。本张专辑在美国发行后的第一周共售出30万1千张，以领先第二名17万张的较大优势夺得了本周的Billboard 200专辑榜的冠军。而在专辑之前发行的首支单曲《So Sick》也成功升至本周的Billboard Hot 100单曲榜榜首。
在本张专辑之前，Ne-Yo的歌声还不为人所知，但作为一名出色的词曲创作人，Ne-Yo这个名字对于整个美国R&B音乐届来说并不陌生。从90年代末开始，原名叫Shaffer Smith的Ne-Yo就开始为多位一线歌手创作歌曲，这其中包括了玛丽·J·布里奇（Mary J. Blige），鲁本·斯图达德（Ruben Studdard），B2K，克里斯蒂娜·米兰（Christina Milian），吉米·福克斯（Jamie Foxx）和海瑟·海德丽（Heather Headley）等。而真正另Ne-Yo开始受到各方关注还是他2004年与马里奥（Mario）合作创作的畅销单曲《Let Me Love You》。
在这张《In My Own Words》当中，Ne-Yo并没有像当今很多R&B歌手那样在专辑中融入过多的流行舞曲元素，而是更多的保持了一种七，八十年代老R&B歌曲的感觉，这可能跟他受王子（Prince），马文·盖耶（Marvin Gaye）和史蒂夫·旺德（Stevie Wonder）影响较深有关。《Let me get this Right》，《When you're Mad》和《So Sick》都是这张专辑中非常出色的单曲。就像当年的《Let Me Love You》一样，Ne-Yo本张专辑的歌词的煽情功力也非同一般。
作为Ne-Yo的处女作，《In My Own Words》同时还被看作是2006年至今最出色的R&B专辑之一。如今，Ne-Yo已经被很多歌迷寄予了更高的希望，但对于年轻的Ne-Yo来说，一切才刚刚开始。
