A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
音乐
Music
I wanted to be a vet, a nurse, a chef - I mean, anything but the music industry. But once I hit high school, the bug really bit me. You can't deny where you come from and what's in your genes, and music definitely was. I haven't looked back since.
我想成为一名兽医，一名护士，一名厨师——我的意思是，除了音乐行业，我什么都想做。但是，当我上高中的时候，这只虫子真的咬了我。你不能否认你来自哪里，你的基因里有什么，音乐绝对是。从那以后我再也没有回过头来。
Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason.
真正丰富的音乐，唯一能打动我们，让我们真正欣赏的音乐，将是一种有助于梦想的音乐，它摒弃了所有的理性和分析。一个人不应该希望先去理解，然后再去感受。艺术不能容忍理性。
Ray had so much love of life and the music. He had so much integrity. He treated the music with so much dignity and respect. I spent four and a half years as a sideman with Ray Brown's trio. Music was his life, more so than anyone I could mention.
雷热爱生活，热爱音乐。他很正直。他对音乐非常尊重。我花了四年半的时间在雷布朗的三重唱中担任边锋。音乐是他的生命，比我能提到的任何人都重要。
I think we're returning to more of the original vibration of music and creativity through the removal of this distortion called the music industry. That's where we're heading. And it'll cut out a lot of music if people ever expected to make money.
我认为，通过消除这种被称为音乐产业的扭曲，我们正在回归更多的音乐和创造力的原始振动。这就是我们要去的地方。如果人们想要赚钱，它会砍掉很多音乐。
I just want to make music, I don't want people to talk about me. All I've ever wanted to do was sing. I don't want to be a celebrity. I don't want to be in people's faces, you know, constantly on covers of magazine that I haven't even known I'm on.
我只是想做音乐，我不希望人们谈论我。我一直想做的就是唱歌。我不想成为名人。我不想出现在人们的面前，你知道，经常出现在我甚至不知道自己在上的杂志封面上。
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。
I've always just adored music. It's my first love, really. I admire and respect people in the music business. You really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can't do that if you're a musician.
我一直都很喜欢音乐。这是我的初恋，真的。我钦佩和尊重音乐行业的人。你真的必须努力工作。有时候，演员可能很懒，但如果你是音乐家，你就做不到。
And as I grew older, I then auditioned for the Royal Academy of Music in London, and they said, well, no, we won't accept you, because we haven't a clue - you know - of the future of a so-called 'deaf' musician. And I just couldn't quite accept that.
随着年龄的增长，我参加了伦敦皇家音乐学院的试镜，他们说，不，我们不接受你，因为我们对一个所谓的“聋人”音乐家的未来一无所知。我只是不能完全接受。
But what you realise after you've been in the business for a while is that people develop opinions about you that don't have anything to do with your music, they like or dislike you for a million reasons, they like or dislike you for your last record.
但当你在这个行业待了一段时间后，你会意识到，人们对你的看法与你的音乐无关，他们喜欢或不喜欢你的原因有千万个，他们喜欢或不喜欢你的上一张唱片。
Spinning has been such an amazing part of my exercise. I love the music, the energy, and the sweat. It's a tough class, which makes me feel like I've really accomplished something. It's a great way to burn fat and lean out the body. An all-around win!
动感单车一直是我运动中非常棒的一部分。我喜欢音乐、精力和汗水。这是一门很难的课，这让我觉得我真的完成了一些事情。这是一种燃烧脂肪，让身体变瘦的好方法。全面胜利!
Music has always been my back door to life. It is important for people to find something that excites them. I like the concept that if you do what excites you, you will be rewarded generously, whatever form reward takes, which is not necessarily money.
音乐一直是我通向生活的后门。对于人们来说，找到让他们兴奋的东西是很重要的。我喜欢这样的概念:如果你做了让你兴奋的事情，你就会得到慷慨的回报，不管回报是什么形式的，不一定是金钱。
I haven't written an awful lot recently, but I think I probably will start again very shortly. Being so much on the road, when you have a couple of weeks off, you're likely to avoid sitting at the piano, and taping, and giving yourself more work to do.
我最近没有写太多东西，但我想我可能很快就会重新开始写。经常出差，当你有几周的假期时，你很可能会避免坐在钢琴前，录磁带，给自己更多的工作要做。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Life is like a beautiful melody, only the lyrics are messed up.
生活就像一首美妙的旋律，只是歌词被打乱了。
And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.
最终，你得到的爱等于你付出的爱。
Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter.
听过的旋律是甜美的，但听不到的更甜美。
This above all; to thine own self be true.
这最重要的是;对自己要真诚。
No good opera plot can be sensible, for people do not sing when they are feeling sensible.
没有好的歌剧情节是明智的，因为人们在感觉明智的时候是不会唱歌的。
All my concerts had no sounds in them; they were completely silent. People had to make up their own music in their minds!
我所有的音乐会都没有声音;他们完全沉默了。人们必须在自己的脑海中创造自己的音乐!
