永生不死：英伦摇滚的沉浮（2003）

..a revolution was in progress, or something.
果浆乐队 《普通人》
你的那首歌♥ 《普通人》
That song you did, Common People,
我听说它被称为
..I heard it described…
是英伦摇滚美学的完美概括
..as the perfect encapsulation of the Britpop aesthetic.
天啊
Oh, dear.
是啊
Right.
Wanna sleep with common people
I wanna sleep with
果浆乐队 《普通人》
Common people, like you
这首歌♥不过是
lt was only a real story
在我上艺术学院时发生的真实故事
that had happened when l was at art college.
一个希腊女孩的确说过
This Greek girl did say
她希望搬到哈克尼[伦敦自治市]
she wanted to move to Hackney, actually,
像一个普通人一样生活
and live like the common people.
之后我说那种事根本就不可能发生
And me saying that couldn’t happen,
因为她的确可以生活那种环境之中
because she could live in those circumstances,
但是她不过是在扮演一个角色
but she would just be acting a role,
因为她知道她总是可以从中逃离的
because she knew she could always escape from it.
So it started there
I said “pretend you got no money.”
But she just laughed and said
“Oh, you’re so funny!”
I said “Yeah.” Huh.
“But I can’t see anyone else smiling here.”
Are you sure…
You wanna live like common people?
You wanna see whatever common people see?
Wanna sleep with common people
You wanna sleep with common people like me
工人阶级文化总是
Working-class culture was
被嘲笑是粗鲁粗俗之类的
often sneered at as being crude and stuff.
之后突然间
Then suddenly…
人们
..people…
也许明白了
..maybe cottoned on to the fact
这种文化比较有活力
that it was a bit more alive…
比所谓的曲高和寡文化有活力得多
..than the supposedly highbrow culture.
所以…
And, so,…
他们迫不及待地
..were desperate to
说他们和一些人混在一起
say they’d been hanging around with some…
你懂得 说什么我去了一家小餐馆
You know, “I went to a great caff.”
那非常的纯粹真实
“It was really, you know, authentic.
餐具可脏了之类的话
The cutlery was so dirty.”
这不是给你提供的选择
It’s not a choice that’s made for you.
不是说退学之后就…
You don’t leave school and go…
我是工人阶级很重要
“It’s important that I’m working-class.”
因为我生来便是如此
You know, casue that’s just the way that I was born.
我降生在这个糟烂的世界
I was born into a fucking life…
干着他妈的枯燥的工作
..of menial fucking jobs.
我爸爸是工人
My dad was a labourer,…
我妈妈是清洁工兼服务员
..my mam was a cleaner and a dinner lady.
就是这样
And that was it, you know.
有什么抱负吗 没有
What aspirations did we have? None.
我们只有摇滚
All we had was rock’n’roll.
如同爆♥炸♥一般 是吧
It were an explosion, weren’t it?
是啊 很疯狂 他们红到…
Yeah, it was quite mad. They got that big that…
你进入的每一个夜店 都在放绿洲的歌♥
Every pub you went in, Oasis tunes were on.
英国的每个聚集地也是如此
Every venue in England…
突然间 红到发紫 没有人比你红
All of a sudden, when you get that big, there wasn’t any.
你只能得到绿洲不出席的三个演出机会
You’ll get three gigs in the country out of Oasis.
我们只能来填补这个空白
That’s where we fill in the gaps,
他们都愿意去看他们表演
because they couIdn’t get to see’em.
《迷墙》这首歌♥什么时候红起来的
So when did Wonderwall start?
-九… -96年 是吧
– Er, ninety… – ’96, were it?
差不多是那个时候吧 很久以前了
Summat like that. A long time ago.
我们已经忍♥受这么久了
Done some fuckin’ miles on the road.
没错
We have, yeah.
很久很久了
It’s a Iong time.
那两年比较愤怒
We had a mad coupIe of year…
然后对自己说别往后看 把愤怒都释放了
..When Don’t Look Back and all that were released.
-实在是难以置信 -当时太愚蠢
– It were… fucking unbelievable. – Silly.
我们可能比绿洲乐队还忙
Probably busier than Oasis, us.
绿洲乐队 《迷墙》
Today is gonna be the day
that they’re gonna throw it back to you
By now, you shouIda somehow
Realised what you gotta do
I don’t believe that anybody…
迷墙是什么 迪恩
What’s a Wonderwall, Dean?
应该是指一个女人吧
It’s spposed to be about his bird.
这是给梅格·马修斯写的歌♥
Meg Matthews at the time, he wrote it for her.
-墙壁一样的脸吗 -她说什么
– Wall face?! – She went “What?!”
那他妈的是什么意思
“What the hell does that mean?”
你是说我的脸像墙壁一样吗
“You saying I’ve got a face like a wall?”
..In your heart is out
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don’t believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now
《清晨的荣耀》这张专辑发行的时候
When Morning Glory come out,
被英国的媒体劈头盖脸的抨击
it got universally slated by the British press.
之后专辑慢慢热卖♥♥
And then it went on,
乐队: 绿洲乐队
专辑:《怎么回事》[《清晨的荣耀》]
发行日期: 1995年十月
达到最后那种高度
you know, to do whatever it done
简直是太疯狂了
lt was just madness.
我们的单曲比很多人的专辑还要热卖♥♥
We sold more singles than people sold albums.
我觉得
l think
《别愤怒回首》的销量
..Don’t Look Back In Anger sold
超过100万张
well over a million singles
..But I don’t know how
我个人认为《确定地可能》才是更出色的专辑
I personally think Definitely Maybe is a far better album.
我穷尽一生 也没搞明白
And for the life of me, I can’t understand…
为什么单单在这个国家
..Why, in this country in particular,…
当他们买♥♥《清晨的荣耀》的时候
..When people bought Morning Glory,
怎么会不买♥♥《确定地可能》
they didn’t buy Definitely Maybe.
我就想说 你们他妈的有什么毛病
And I’d like to say, where do you fucking get off on that?
当你去HMV[著名连锁店]买♥♥《清晨的荣耀》时
When you go to HMV to buy Morning Glory,
怎么不买♥♥《确定地可能》
..you don’t buy Definitely Maybe.
这是怎么回事
What’s that all about?
这么干是想惹我生气吗
Do you just do it to piss me off?
我…
I would…
这种事
It’s a source of…
我坐在那可以想上好几个小时
I could think about that for hours.
你有《确定地可能》这张专辑吗
Have you got Definitely Maybe?
那另外一张…看见没
And Morning…see?
这样的情况我理解
Now, I can understand that.
人可真是怪啊
People are fucking weird.
The Mike Flowers Pops乐队 《迷墙》
And maybe
Are you gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You’re my wonderwall
绿洲乐队 《香槟超新星》
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
1996年八月10号♥11号♥
In a champagne supernova in the sky
绿洲乐队举办了英国历史上最大型的无座室外演唱会
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
当我站在纳贝沃思 看绿洲乐队表演的时候
When I stood at Knebworth and watched Oasis,…
我转向爱伦·米基 说…
..I turned to Alan McGee and said…
完结了 战争结束了 他们赢了
..”This is it, the battle has been won.”
感觉就像是整个80年代
It seemed that throughout that time in the “80s,…
我们在小的俱乐部让乐队表演
..when we were putting on bands in little clubs…
搞乐迷杂♥志♥ 搞弹性盘或是唱片
..Or doing Fanzines, doing flexi-discs or records,…
或是想方设法
..Or just trying to get an
在电台报道一支小乐队
article about a small band on the radio,…
或是在音乐媒体
..Or an article on a small
报道一支小乐队 或是…
band in the music press, or what have you,…
感觉所有做过的事情
..It seemed like everything that had been done…
在纳贝沃思最终达到了目的
..was, was finalised at Knebworth.
就是这个感觉
That’s what it felt like.
有最棒的乐队
Here was the greatest band in the world,
也有最受欢迎的乐队
the biggest band in the world.
史上第一次
For once, the biggest
最受欢迎的乐队和最棒的乐队是同一个
band in the world were the best in the world.
