John Mayer -- New Deep

简单生活,开始新的一天:John Mayer - New Deep

I'm so alive
I'm so enlightened
I can barely survive
A night in my mind
I've got a plan
I'm gonna find out just how boring I am
And have a good time

Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It's been fine
I've been cool
With my new golden rule

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

Is there a God?
Why is he waiting?
Don't you think of it odd
When he knows my address?
And look at the stars
Don't it remind you just how feeble we are?
Well it used to, I guess

Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It's been fine
I've been cool
With my new golden rule

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

I'm a new man
I wear a new cologne and
You wouldn't know me if your eyes were closed
I know what you'll say
'This won't last longer than the rest of the day'
But you're wrong this time

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
I'm over the analyzing
Tonight

Stop trying to figure it out
Deep will only bring you down
You know, I used to be the back porch poet with a book of rhymes
Always open knowing all the time I'm probably
Never gonna find the perfect rhyme
For 'heavier things'

有问题,来小Q问一下

John Mayer是康乃狄克州人。从小听之声的流行乐长大。十三岁的时候邻居送给他一盘Stevie Ray Vaughan)的录音带,这是他第一次接触蓝调音乐。自此John Mayer开始学习吉他。不过两年,他开始登台演出,并且一鸣惊人。但是他很快就了解到,这不是他真正想要的。

John Mayer说:“我不想只是个最顶尖的吉他手,因为那充其量不过就是模仿别人,然后看看谁弹《Sky Is Crying》弹得最好。我希望有人喜欢我的歌,然后弹出跟别人不一样的味道。”

John John Mayer非常注重培养自己的创作能力。虽然吉他的技巧高超,但他不炫耀,力求写出有漂亮音符的歌曲。他十九岁就读百克里学院,但几个月后就发现自己喜欢玩音乐而不是研究音乐。他笑着说:“那段学习经验很棒,至于上课就再说了。”亚特兰大的朋友劝他到南方看看,不久他就成了像艾迪阁楼这种亚特兰大流行歌曲作者聚会地点的常客。

1999年他出了张EP《Inside Wants Out》,专辑里大部分的歌曲都是他个人独唱,也收录几首由乐队伴奏的歌曲。这张唱片将他充满活力、执着认真的声音表现的淋漓尽致。当地的媒体很快就发现了John Mayer,并且极力赞扬他的表现。《Atlanta City Search》曾经这样报导过:“这位年轻人知道怎样用他那六根琴弦和诚实的歌词捕捉所有乐迷的心。”

在John Mayer身上我们可以发现巨星的特质:技巧成熟,令人印象深刻的吉他弹奏产生平易近人的大众摇滚音乐,非常上镜头,魅力横扫南方地区。John Mayer对歌曲创作的热情非常明显强烈,他说:“背着吉他站在麦克风前,脑海中自然而然就会浮现出旋律,一下子就会有几千几百首歌曲跑出来,我爱这种感觉!生命里最棒的一刻,就是终于完成一首歌的那个夜晚。”

2000年三月,John Mayer到德州奥斯汀参加知名的South by Southwest,之后便有许多音乐公司找他合作,他最后选择了哥伦比亚唱片公司。那年秋天他开始录制专辑《Room For Squares》,制作人是John Alagia。最新专辑《Room For Squares》中完全是真材实料的乐器演奏,还邀请了常和他现场表演的贝斯手David LaBruyere和鼓手Nir Zidkiyahu(来自Genesis)。John Mayer非常兴奋,因为他终于得以和乐团一起合作,灌录唱片。John Mayer说:“只因为我一直没和乐团合作,大家就一直把我定位成不插电的民谣吉他手,实际上我是宁缺勿滥。上张专辑《Inside Wants Out》发行时,很多人都不太了解我真正想表达的是什么,我想大家听了这张就能体会。我想这张专辑已经达到了相当的水准。”

就是这样的执著,让John Mayer一首接一首地写下去。他说:“听到一首好歌,大家自然会想知道是谁唱的。如果可以提供乐迷这样的品质保证,他们就会一直听下去。”
