Macy Gray - I Try
Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here
When will they stop
I believe that faith has brought us here
And we should be together, babe
But we're not
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool, but I'm fending
I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
I may appear to be free
But I'm just a prisoner of your love
And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'
I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy, I need your touch
Your love kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can't deny
Deny
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
(but I'm dreaming of you babe)
I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'
I try to say goodbye and I choke (yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not there
(when you are not near aahh)
Goodbye and I choke (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble (hey, hey, hey)
Though I try to hide it, it's clear (sick of love)
My world crumbles when you are not near (your love, kisses and)
Goodbye and I choke (I'm choking)
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(when you are not there, yeah, yeah yeah)
Yeah, yeah..
歌手介绍
MACY GRAY原名纳塔莉-麦金太尔(Natalie Mcintyre),出生于美国俄亥俄州坎顿市。尽管人们把Gray奉为灵魂音乐的救星,但是她本人从不以此自居,而是常常向人们讲述他童年的故事。那时她因为嗓音特别经常引来其它孩子们的嘲笑,她也因此轻易不敢开口讲话。她的嗓音融合了 Billie Holiday和Tina Turner两种嗓音的特色,但又与蓝调音乐和说唱表演者的陈腐风格完全不同,能够给人一种耳目一新的感觉。她的首张唱片在1999年秋天一推出就吸引了批评家和音乐爱好者的注意。Gray 曾接受过几年的正规钢琴训练, 她的成长过程中被灌输都是象 Stevie Wonder 和 Aretha Franklin这样的一流的精神食粮,但她在80年代早期也学习了一些希普霍普艺术 。后来她又来到洛杉矶在USC电影学院学习。在那里她在同事们的诱导下开始在一些试播唱片演示会上演唱,并开始在引起轰动。后来她在好莱坞创办了自己的业余时间俱乐部,取名为We Ours,在这里她能够在朋友们面临表演自己的创作。
1988年,Gray和Epic Records唱片公司签约,并开始和制片人 Adrew Slater 一起录制唱片。她的合作者包括歌曲作者darryl Swann 和 Jeremy Ruzumna、Arik Marshall(吉它手),和经验丰富的音乐家 Blackbird McKnight(吉它手)和Lenny Castro(打击乐乐师)。她的《On How Life Is》曲调优美,融合了古典黑人音乐、城市蓝调音乐和希普霍普节奏,Gray 朴实粗重的嗓音使得这支曲子更加完美。她的一些比较出众的优秀单曲则包括《Do Something》、《I Try》、《Sex-o-matic Venus Freak》和《Caligula》。这张唱片在英国尤其得到大家的好评,人们对她的作品的好评和口头上的赞誉也使得她的这张唱片在排行榜上稳定上升(在10月份最终达到了第6名的好成绩)。《I Try》也连续几周排在前10名单曲之列。这首歌在随后的一年里在美国取得成功,5月份攀升到排行榜前5名之列。她那不可思议的嗓音更使她显得与同时代的歌手与众不同。
聆听 Macy Gray的声音真是一种十分美妙的经验。她的歌声可以让你感觉身处一个磨肩擦踵的拥挤酒吧里;时而让你毫无防备地深深浸透在她甜蜜的歌声中,时而又以强而有力的嗓音活跳跳于鲜活旋律里。一般人乍听Macy的歌声往往会马上联想到四十年代爵士天后Billie Holiday(比莉哈乐黛),但再继续细听之后又会从中窥见好几位传奇歌后的影子:Abbey Lincoln、Bette Davis、Nina Simone、Karen Dalton、Tina Turner…… 然而最终你会发现,Macy Gray的声音就是Macy Gray自己的声音,无可替代的声音。
