音乐盒里,不能少Gaga

红遍街头巷尾的 Bad Romance 无人不晓,凭着节奏强劲、简洁的旋律,教人听后难忘。借由 Asus N43SN Bang & Olufsen 音响播送,更是强劲 —— 低中高音均到好处。It would indeed be a miracle if there’s anyone who do not know Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance. Bad Romance is a song with strong tempo, stark tune and playing it through my Asus N43SN Bang & Olufsen’s speakers, the lows, meds and highs are all at its optimum best.
对于歌词,我却是尤其不屑。不愧为话题女王的强力主打,里头都是极具争议性的内容。However, the lyrics is definitely controversial.
I want your ugly / I want your disease / I want your everything
I want your drama / The touch of your hand / I want you leather-studded kiss in the sand
I want your horror / I want your design / ‘Cause you’re a criminal / As long as your mine
I want your psycho / Your vertical stick / Want you in my rear window / ‘Cause baby you’re sick
I want your love
至于这是“义无反顾”的爱,还是痴傻愚昧的爱,见仁见智。仁者自知。我总说,无论好的歌词或不良的歌词,都能是教材,正面教材,与反面教材。这首歌,对我而言,绝对是反面教材。Perhaps this can be what you called “love without regrets” or simply stupidity. Up to personal discretion though. It is in my opinion though, irregardless of the content of lyrics, all are readily good lesson material. Bad romance, can be a lesson material, to educate against bad romance.
因为,爱不该如此。所以 Lady Gaga 自诩,这是 Bad Romance。Because Love should not be in this modus operandi, Lady Gaga acknowledges it too, this is Bad Romance.
至于 Poker Face,内容也与赌博有关,揭露赌场种种。Her song, Poker Face, too raises the ills in gambling and the ugly facade of gambling.
和 Paparazzi 歌词,也揭露狗仔如何步步追踪明星生活。狗仔如同明星的最忠实歌迷,却尤其伤害明星,使得明星生活少了隐私,让明星犹若活在玻璃屋似的。How about the song, Paparazzi? It shows how artistes live in totally public glass houses, where every moves are spied upon. Paparazzi, though can be considered as their number 1 fans, hurt them most. Because artistes like any normal human beings, long for normal lives.
纵观 Lady Gaga 歌曲与MVs,Lady Gaga 在她一首一首歌中,赤裸裸地呈现一幅幅黑暗、丑陋、残酷、龌龊的现实。把黑暗、丑陋、残酷、龌龊的现实摆在大众面前,一定让人不能下胃。在 Lady Gaga 的音乐中,却不一定难下胃。Taking a broad look at all Lady Gaga’s songs and music videos, you will discover that, in every songs, she presented pictures of darkness, ugliness, cruelty and dirtiness in reality. These aren’t images ready and easy to stomach, but through Lady Gaga’s music, it might not be that hard, after all.
她,算是尖锐、算是极端,但,呈现的,多半是现实。如果每一首歌,都只唱美好的、浪漫的、童话的,那么,所谓歌由心生,生的源头是梦,大抵就是人们逃亡的乌托邦。She is sharp and extreme, but what she presents are reality, cold hard truth. If every song in the world, portrays only the good, romantic and fairy-tales like stories, then all songs are but utopias to run to.
除了歌曲内容,Lady Gaga在每一首歌曲的MV,无论是服饰、发型都是强烈的视觉刺激。媒体认为 Lady Gaga 实是走在时装前端的女神。其实,Lady Gaga也在通过时装,挑战人们对潮流的定义,以及嘲讽人们为潮流的痴狂。Other than song contents, Lady Gaga’s dressings, hairstyle are strong visual stimulants. Lady Gaga can be considered as diva at the pinnacle. In all truth, Lady Gaga is challenging people’s definitions of fashion and mocking at people’s craze and fanatic behaviours towards fashion.
去年,就曾炒得沸沸扬扬的,Lady Gaga 为时尚截肢。设计行内人一看,便道是幌子 —— 假的。大家认为Lady Gaga又发狂了。No one would forget the false alarm of Lady Gaga’s amputated leg. At that very point, many thought that Lady Gaga has gone gaga, again.
从另一角度来看,Lady Gaga 真的只是疯狂吗?她想要证明什么?她是在嘲讽当下追星族,不是偶像做什么,你就该跟风,你能跟得上吗?偶像做的,不一定是对的。From another angle, can we really call Lady Gaga crazy? What is she trying to prove? That she is gaga? She is, but mocking at stars-chasers and proving the point that, not all idols do the right things at all times.
当正面的教材已不能振醒世界,也许,这世界就需要一个 Lady Gaga,让她把黑暗、丑陋、残酷、龌龊的,一一借流行文化、强劲音乐、震撼人心的强烈视觉画面,呈现给大家看。When positive educational materials could no longer awake the world, the world probably need Lady Gaga, to show you all the dark sides, cruelties, ugliness and dirtiness of reality, through pop culture, her strong tempo music and strong visual stimulants.
也有人说过,看久了不好的画面,就不会想要犯罪了,因为自觉恶心。那便是反面教材了。但当然,所谓反面教材,还需听者、观者先有一套正确的价值观,不能单单盲信“人性本善”。There is probably some truth in the saying that, seeing too much evil would render people numb to commit evil, because they would be long too disgusted. However, listeners and viewers must be equipped with their own set of upright beliefs, we should not blindly belief that “Man are born kind”.
否则,Lady Gaga 的反面教材,便是不良影响,而不是教材了。Otherwise Lady Gaga’s “educational” materials would be negative influence.
今天,通过 Mashable,看到了 Lady Gaga 的新形象 —— 光头。大概又是假的。其实,光头有什么好怕的呢?至少,自认潮流女王的 Lady Gaga不怕。Through Mashable, I saw Lady Gaga’s new image – bald head. Most probably untrue. There is no fear in being bald, even for the fashion queen.
歌词不能说完全正当,但是,浅歌词(内容中心)便是,无论发型,做自己最重要。无论发生什么,爱自己最重要。不自爱,怎得人爱?The lyrics aren’t positive, but the message is, irregardless of hairstyle or dressing, it is important to be yourself. If you don’t love yourself, who will love you?
那么,是否站在巅峰就教人羡慕?Lady Gaga可不这么认为。巅峰与悬崖相同,一不小心,就跌入深谷。战战兢兢,霎那幻灭,这是人所向往的光荣/荣誉或快乐呢?At the acme of career, would that be enviable, apparently Lady Gaga think not. Acme, is similar to edge. You have to be extremely uptight and careful. It isn’t exact glory.
不是。
我想,我们该好好认识疯狂背后的 Lady Gaga,该好好听一听她的反面教材。每个人的音乐盒,不能少 Lady Gaga,而好的音乐盒,但须好的音响,才能播放出音乐盒里的神奇、真实。Asus N43SN 凭借 Bang & Olufsen SonicMaster Technology,就能为我们带来,绝佳的听觉享受。I think, we should know the Lady Gaga behind all her crazy antics, listen to her thoughts and messages (hidden). You shouldn’t miss out Lady Gaga’s music in your music collection and you need good entertainment speakers for good music. Asus N43SN lives up to that, with its Bang & Olufsen SonicMaster Technology.
