A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
音乐
Music
I've always been interested in shaping music in odd ways, with odd riffs and that's been probably something that I've continued on with my studies with improvisation as I'm working with people.
我一直对以奇怪的方式塑造音乐很感兴趣，有奇怪的即兴片段，这可能是我在与人合作的过程中一直在学习的即兴创作。
If my life were a song it'd be called 'Here I Am' because here I am - I mean, I'm Thia and I'm here to me me, I'm here to express myself musically which I find is the best way to express myself.
如果我的生命是一首歌，它应该被称为“我在这里”，因为我在这里，我的意思是，我是西亚，我在这里我的我，我在这里表达自己的音乐，我发现这是最好的方式来表达我自己。
It's taken folk a while to come around, hasn't it? Even the boys in the band weren't too sure about the whole art thing. They just wanted me to concentrate on the music. But they respect it now.
人们花了一段时间才醒悟过来，不是吗?即使是乐队里的男孩也不太确定整个艺术的事情。他们只是想让我专注于音乐。但他们现在尊重它。
I try to devote my afternoons to making music in my home studio, but it's a lot more fun hanging out with musicians and friends, and trying subtly to influence a band than making your own stuff.
我试着把下午的时间用在我的家庭录音室里做音乐，但是和音乐家和朋友一起出去玩，试着巧妙地影响一个乐队，要比自己做东西有趣得多。
They were looking for actors - real actors - who could play instruments. There was a lot of improvisation and scene work involved in addition to the music. The auditions went on for a long time.
他们在寻找会演奏乐器的演员——真正的演员。除了音乐，还有很多即兴创作和现场工作。试镜持续了很长时间。
I used to think that anyone doing anything weird was weird. I suddenly realized that anyone doing anything weird wasn't weird at all and it was the people saying they were weird that were weird.
我曾经认为任何做奇怪事情的人都是奇怪的。我突然意识到，任何做奇怪事情的人都一点也不奇怪，说自己奇怪的人才是奇怪的人。
When you say something is very different to a core base that expects heavy music from you or very aggressive music, everybody tends to go, 'Oh, they're gonna get mellow, they're gonna get soft.'
当你说某件事与期待你演奏重磅音乐或极具侵略性的音乐的核心基础非常不同时，每个人都倾向于说，‘哦，他们会变得柔和，他们会变得柔和。’
Because, when I'm making music, I don't think about anything, you know? All I think about is what I want to hear. So that for me is what I want - I want my head to be constantly being rearranged.
因为，当我创作音乐的时候，我什么都不想，你知道吗?我所想的都是我想听的。所以对我来说，这就是我想要的——我想让我的大脑不断地被重新安排。
The beautiful thing about hip-hop is it's like an audio collage. You can take any form of music and do it in a hip-hop way and it'll be a hip-hop song. That's the only music you can do that with.
嘻哈音乐的美妙之处在于它就像一个音频拼贴。你可以用任何形式的音乐，用嘻哈的方式来演奏，那就是一首嘻哈歌曲。这是你唯一能做的音乐。
My access to music when I was growing up was through pirate radio, you know, transistor radio under the pillow, listening to one more and then 'just one more' until your favourite track comes on.
在我成长的过程中，我接触音乐的途径是通过盗版收音机，你知道，枕头下的晶体管收音机，再听一遍，然后“就再听一遍”，直到你最喜欢的歌曲出现。
It's funny how the music industry is enraged about the Internet and the way things are copied without being paid for. But you know why people steal the music? Because they can't afford the music.
有趣的是，音乐产业对互联网和免费复制音乐的方式感到愤怒。但你知道人们为什么偷音乐吗?因为他们买不起音乐。
I wasn't writing the music. Ed would write a piece of music. I'd listen to it and come up with a melody and then we would arrange it. We'd put it together and I would write lyrics to my melodies.
我不是在写音乐。艾德会写一段音乐。我会听一听，想出一个旋律，然后我们会安排它。我们把它放在一起，然后我给我的旋律写歌词。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Nothing separates the generations more than music. By the time a child is eight or nine, he has developed a passion for his own music that is even stronger than his passions for procrastination and weird clothes.
没有什么比音乐更能把两代人分开了。当一个孩子八九岁的时候，他对自己的音乐产生了一种热情，这种热情甚至超过了他对拖延症和古怪衣服的热情。
And we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.
我们应该想想，每一天，如果我们没有跳过一次舞，就会失去意义。我们应该称每一个真理为假的，而不是伴随着至少一个笑声。
Music links us humans, heart to heart...Across time and space, and life and death.
音乐把我们人类连在一起，心连心……跨越时空，跨越生死。
When a singer truly feels and experiences what the music is all about, the words will automatically ring true.

Although I am flexible and ready to take advice, I can't carry an umbrella of thoughts over my head that would distract me and affect my music making.
虽然我很灵活，随时准备接受建议，但我不能把那些会分散我注意力、影响我音乐创作的想法像伞一样罩在头上。
I have always enjoyed different kinds of music.
我总是喜欢不同种类的音乐。
