Do you still remember how did Justin Biber become famous? Yes, by You Tube. Do you expect there will be someone coping him to win fame? Absolutely there is someone doing so. That is Rebecca Black, who is predicated to be next Justin, though she is just a girl.
还记得贾斯汀是怎么出道的么?You Tube。那想过还会有人使用这种方式来成名么?答案是有的。这个人就是丽贝卡•布莱克。她也很有可能成为下一个贾斯汀哦!
In the autumn of 2010, Rebecca entered the studio to record a song and then uploaded it to You Tube on February 10 in 2011. This song received not so much attention until March 11. It became the hot topic in Twitter and the song surpassed 100 million views on April 13. During the past four weeks, the digital single has sold 159,000 copies.
2010年秋天,丽贝卡进入音乐工厂录制了一首单曲,并于2011年2月10日将其发到网上,开始并没有很多人关注。也许令Rebecca Black都没有想到的是,从3月11日开始,这首歌曲的点击量暴增,并成为著名社交网站Twitter上的热门话题,截止4月13日,该歌曲的点击量已有一亿,单曲也买出了159,000张。
Have you ever thought about a song that tells the daily activities like getting up, going downstairs or having food and meeting others? Well, that’s Rebecca Black’s song, Friday. With simple lyrics and melody, she just acted according to the MV. Rather crude and simple. Especially she also counted from Monday to Sunday.
你想过这首歌吗?歌词简单到只唱着起床,下楼,吃饭这些琐碎的事情。这首歌就是丽贝卡的《星期五》,简单的歌词,简单的旋律,粗糙的MV制作,甚至有她从星期一数到星期日的歌词。
Besides, there are also rap elements in it, the rappers are black and to a large extent, emphasizes the girl’s cute side. Do you feel a little familiar after I introduced you a lot about this song? Will this song remind you of Picnic, Above the Moon etc? International Diving Tune, huh? It sounds some similarities between them.
另外这首歌也有RAP部分,由两名黑人歌手演唱,这样的男女搭配使丽贝卡看起来更加可爱。听到这些特点,你不会觉得唤起你关于《忐忑》《月亮之上》之类的“神曲”记忆吗?
《星期五》这首歌看起来更像是一首相当国际化的“神曲”吧!
Then the song causes a heated debate. Rebecca is prized as “a gifted singer with special style” and even predicated by some media that she is going to lead a revolution in music. However, she also faced more harsh criticism as well. Time scolded her song “the worst”.
自然这种歌曲也逃不了媒体的“评头论足”,丽贝卡被大赞是“具有独特嗓音的女孩”,并说她将会引领歌坛新革命。但是,她也遭遇了更多批评。《时代》甚至说这首歌“烂出新水平”。
“I was rather disappointed, they knew nothing about me, but they are so harsh to me, I’m just 13.” Rebecca said so in the interview about the criticism. She even decided to cancel her singing career.” I cried all the time, I have really do nothing wrong. ” But she said she had to face all these and try to be strong to pursed her dream.
在接受采访时,丽贝卡大吐苦水表示道:“这真是令人觉得很沮丧,那些人对我一无所知但是却随意伤害我,刚开始的时候我经常为此而哭,毕竟我才13岁。我究竟做错了什么。” 但丽贝卡说媒体也使她变得更加坚强,更加坚定地去追寻自己的音乐梦想。
Now the girl is making her debut record. It’s said that she composed many songs and to prove that she is capable in this field. She expressed that she wouldn’t change for she is just a girl at 13 who loves singing without pursing anything. Maybe we can form our own opinion after listening to her songs .
现在,丽贝卡正在录制首张个人专辑。据悉这张专辑将会消除很多人对她的质疑,她表示专辑中将会有很多自己创作的歌曲。她表示自己不会因为外界的评论而改变自我,她说她只是喜欢唱歌,而不是试图成为其他什么。也许,我们还是听听她的歌后,各自形成各自的观点吧!
