A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
发生
Happen
It's a weird thing when you make records. You try to hear it before you make it, so you walk into the studio with this idea of what you expect to happen, and that usually changes. That usually turns into something else, and that's a good thing.
做唱片是件很奇怪的事。你试着在做之前听到它,所以你带着这个想法走进录音室,你希望发生什么,而这通常会改变。这通常会变成别的东西,这是一件好事。
When I sang that song, I felt it was almost as if some force had moved into my body. Things like that have only happened to me singing jazz. It doesn't happen when singing pop. I get so deeply into the music, it feels like I've become someone else.
当我唱那首歌的时候,我感觉好像有某种力量进入了我的身体。这种事只发生在我唱爵士乐的时候。唱流行歌曲的时候不会这样。我对音乐如此着迷,就好像我变成了另一个人。
Liquid architecture. It's like jazz - you improvise, you work together, you play off each other, you make something, they make something. And I think it's a way of - for me, it's a way of trying to understand the city, and what might happen in the city.
液体的架构。这就像爵士乐——你即兴创作,你一起工作,你互相竞争,你创造一些东西,他们创造一些东西。我认为这是一种方式,对我来说,这是一种尝试了解这个城市,以及这个城市可能发生什么的方式。
Sometimes we look for those thunderous things to happen in our life for our lives to change or go in the other direction. We seek the miracle. We seek the parting of the seas, the moving of the mountains. But no, it's a quiet thing. At least for me it was.
有时候,我们期待着那些轰轰烈烈的事情发生在我们的生活中,让我们的生活改变或走向另一个方向。我们追求奇迹。我们寻求海的分岔,山的移动。但不,这是一件安静的事情。至少对我来说是这样。
Well what would happen is that if Greece defaulted and couldn't pay its debts, all the Greek bonds that are held in other banking systems across Western Europe would suddenly have no value. You could as a knock-on effect create a banking crisis in Western Europe.
如果希腊违约无法偿还债务,那么在西欧其他银行体系中持有的所有希腊债券就会突然失去价值。你可以作为一个连锁反应,在西欧制造一场银行业危机。
I still like to keep tapes of the few minutes before the final take, things that happen before the session. Maybe it's superstitious, but I believe if I had done things differently - if I had walked around the studio or gone out - it wouldn't have turned out that way.
我仍然喜欢在期末考试前的几分钟录下来,也就是在考试前发生的事情。也许这是迷信的说法,但我相信如果我做的事情不同——如果我在演播室里走来走去或者走出去——结果就不会是那样。
What we know is smartphones are everywhere and they are rich in data. What we know is that there are apps once downloaded by the consumer that will also in turn download the consumers' contact book. Most consumers don't want that to happen and don't know it's happening.
我们所知道的是,智能手机无处不在,它们拥有丰富的数据。我们所知道的是,一旦消费者下载了一些应用程序,它们也会反过来下载消费者的通讯录。大多数消费者不希望这种情况发生,也不知道它正在发生。
I've got some great guy friends. They can start out as crushes. But when you realize something isn't going to happen, you make a choice whether or not the friendship is worth it. And it usually is. Then you can laugh about the fact that you used to have a crush on him or he had one on you.
我有一些很棒的男性朋友。他们可以从迷恋开始。但当你意识到有些事情不会发生时,你就会做出一个选择,看看这份友谊是否值得。通常是这样的。然后你就可以嘲笑自己曾经迷恋过他或者他曾经迷恋过你。
Almost all of your life is lived by the seat of your pants, one unexpected event crashing into another, with no pattern or reason, and then you finally reach a point, around my age, where you spend more time than ever looking back. Why did this happen? Look where that led? You see the shape of things.
你几乎所有的生活都是凭感觉度过的,一件意想不到的事撞到另一件事,没有规律,也没有原因,然后你终于到了一个点,在我这个年纪,你花了比以往任何时候都多的时间来回顾。为什么会这样?看看这是怎么回事?你看到事物的形状。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Never give up on anybody. Miracles happen every day.
永远不要放弃任何人。奇迹每天都在发生。
I met someone cute today. But it's not like anything's gonna happen. Nothing ever happen.
我今天遇到一个可爱的人。但好像什么都不会发生。什么都没有发生。
Let everything happen to you. Beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.
让一切发生在你身上。美丽和恐怖。只是继续。没有什么感觉是最终的。
Why should I be worried about dying? It's not going to happen in my lifetime!
我为什么要担心死亡?这在我有生之年是不会发生的!
Even when you know something bad will happen, you still might not see it coming.
即使你知道一些不好的事情会发生,你仍然可能看不到它的到来。
