A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
岩石
Rock
I play Rock Band, which is Guitar Hero times ten. You can play with four people, so when you have parties, you have a real band. Nobody ever wants to sing, so I'm always the one throwing down on the mic.
我玩摇滚乐队，这是吉他英雄十倍。你可以和四个人一起玩，所以当你开派对的时候，你有一个真正的乐队。从来没有人想唱歌，所以我总是一个人把麦克风扔下去。
Everything that's rock n roll is ever meant to be is happening now. I need to get over the shock that that thing is actually happening and that thousands of millions of people around the world are watching.
摇滚乐的一切本来就该发生的现在都发生了。我需要从震惊中恢复过来，这件事正在发生，全世界有成千上万的人在观看。
The biggest problem in rock journalism is that often the writer's main motivation is to become friends with the band. They're not really journalists; they're people who want to be involved in rock and roll.
摇滚新闻最大的问题是，作者的主要动机往往是与乐队成为朋友。他们不是真正的记者;他们是想参与摇滚乐的人。
I know some people will be surprised to hear it, but I've found that my music, whether its blues or rock, or whatever you want to call it, can be channeled into a positive direction that actually helps people.
我知道有些人听到它会感到惊讶，但我发现我的音乐，无论是蓝调还是摇滚，或者你想叫它什么，都可以引导到一个积极的方向，实际上可以帮助人们。
There's a lot of people over time who have brought out all these funky records that everybody has started jumping on like a catch phrase... When Planet Rock came out, then you had all of the electro funk records.
随着时间的推移，有很多人推出了所有这些时髦的唱片，每个人都开始跳起来，就像一句流行语……当行星岩石出现的时候，你就有了所有的电子放克唱片。
I don't consider myself a rock star chef, I really don't. I cook for a living and I try to help out as many people as I can in my life and that's all I care about. I don't care about the fame of television, I use to a lot.
我不认为自己是一个摇滚明星厨师，我真的不这么认为。我以做饭为生，我尽力帮助生活中尽可能多的人，这就是我所关心的。我不在乎电视的名声，我习惯了。
Down below the broad, roaring waves of the sea break against the deep foundation of the rock. But high above the mountain, the sea, and the peaks of rock the eternal ornamentation blooms silently from the dark depths of the universe.
下面，汹涌澎湃的巨浪拍打着岩石的深层。但是，在高山、海洋和岩石的高峰之上，永恒的装饰从黑暗的宇宙深处悄然绽放。
All I can say is I've been reading the lips of bleeped-out words, angry baseball players, and stoned-out rock stars on awards shows for years and it's been hilarious. Everyone is always asking me what the bleeped-out parts are saying.
我所能说的是，多年来，我一直在阅读那些模糊的话语，愤怒的棒球运动员，以及在颁奖典礼上被淘汰的摇滚明星们的唇语，这真是太搞笑了。每个人都在问我，那些褪色的部分在说什么。
But when you hear the complete album, it gets dark, really straight-up rock, with some really intimate moments with just me and the piano. It's not completely me because there are parts of me that aren't on that song, that are on the album.
但当你听到完整的专辑，它变得黑暗，真正的摇滚，与一些真正亲密的时刻，只有我和钢琴。它不完全是我，因为我的某些部分不在那首歌里，而是在专辑里。
I've never taken vocal lessons. My early trumpet training and a fortunate talent for singing has always been enough for me. In the case of rock singing, I've always felt it was better to remain a bit untrained to maintain your individuality.
我从未上过声乐课。我早期的小号训练和幸运的歌唱天赋对我来说已经足够了。就摇滚乐而言，我一直觉得最好还是保持一点未经训练的个性。
Joining another big time rock band was the last thing I was looking for, but as the tour went on, I really dug playing to a lot of people, the band sounded great, and just being out there again, got me over my depression and so I decided to hop on board.
加入另一个摇滚乐队是我正在寻找的最后一件事,但随着旅游了,我真的挖了很多人,玩乐队听起来不错,就再次被外面,让我在我的抑郁,所以我决定跳。
Well, in some ways I had sort of the opposite experience of other people that are sort of dreaming of being in a rock band. I was dreaming of like corporate lunches and just like, and I'm not really joking. Like the whole idea to me was really appealing.
在某种程度上，我和那些梦想成为摇滚乐队成员的人有着相反的经历。我梦想着公司午餐，我不是在开玩笑。整个想法对我很有吸引力。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Being a rock widow is not my job, so I would hire people to do it for me.
成为一个岩石寡妇不是我的工作，所以我会雇人来为我做这件事。
I would so rock at running a muck.
我很乐意干这一行。
What's cool about indie rock is that one band can do effectively the same thing as another band, and one band nails it, and the other one doesn't. I like that elusiveness.
独立摇滚的酷之处在于，一个乐队可以和另一个乐队做同样的事情，而另一个乐队做不到。我喜欢那种飘忽不定的感觉。
I don't limit my taste. There's some jazz that I like and there's some opera. I've been listening to what was essentially country music, but it crossed over to rock.
我不限制自己的品味。有我喜欢的爵士乐和歌剧。我一直在听本质上是乡村音乐的音乐，但它跨越了摇滚。
I think the rock'n'roll myth of living on the edge is a pile of crap.
我认为生活在悬崖边的摇滚神话是一堆垃圾。
It is a pity that instead of the Pilgrim Fathers landing on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock had not landed on the Pilgrim Fathers.
遗憾的是，普利茅斯岩并没有让清教徒祖先登陆普利茅斯岩，而是让清教徒祖先登陆了普利茅斯岩。
