| 释义 | 《Vision of love》是Mariah Carey的出道作品，Mariah同名专辑《Mariah Carey》的首单，也是Mariah的第一支冠军单曲、Mariah在美国的成名之作，发布于1990年。 Mariah Carey出道之作1990年5月15日，Mariah在Columbia旗下发行了自己的首张单曲"Vision Of Love"，在美国流行歌坛引起一阵震撼，她那宽广浑厚的嗓音，带有浓厚R&B 和soul韵味的乐风，立即深深吸引电台媒体与乐迷，Mariah从而开启了自己20年的流行歌手职业生涯。 详细介绍1990年5月15日，新人歌手Mariah Carey，发行了自己的首支单曲"Vision Of Love"。就像所有新歌手一样，那天没有什么特别的。经过一段时间的准备、宣传，Mariah将自己写入了Billboard的历史。通过“无数的辛劳和许多的梦想”，"Vision Of Love"开始进入电台和零售领域。1990年6月2日，这支单曲在Billboard Hot 100单曲榜首周成绩第73位。 当Mariah Carey第一次通过电台听到这首歌的时候，她欣喜若狂，至少可以这么说。 “我和我的一个朋友听到这个，我们都尖叫起来，然后开始给人们打电话。这绝对是一个难忘的时刻！” 在出席电视节目The Arsenio Hall Show的4天后，Mariah站在了1990年NBA总决赛场地的中央，并演唱了"America The Beautiful"。现场的2万名观众和电视机前1430万的观众鉴证了这一时刻。“我从来没有在如此多的人前面唱歌。我当时真的很紧张，我现在回过头去看这段视频会有一种特别的感觉，因为当我唱到'from sea to shining sea.'的时候直接就用了高音。” “现场每个人都在等待继续比赛的气氛中，她却让所有人都闭上了嘴。”——Terry Lewis，音乐制作人 大约三周之后，随着流行度和知名度的上升，CBS唱片公司于1990年6月13日发行了她的首张专辑Mariah Carey。CBS坚信他们拥有了一张音乐王牌，并在继Bruce Springsteen于1975年发行Born To Run之后，第一次为一位新人使用了最大规模和最昂贵的宣传活动。 专辑Mariah Carey的起步并不迅速，这在SoundScan时期是正常的，尤其是对一位新人来说。1990年6月23日，专辑在Billboard 200专辑榜的首周成绩仅仅列第80位。随着单曲"Vision Of Love"在Billboard Hot 100上突飞猛进，Mariah Carey也相应的往上提升。1990年8月4日，随着"Vision Of Love"在单曲榜夺冠，专辑也上升至第4名的最好成绩。几周之后，Mariah Carey被认证为白金专辑。 “当时我并不懂什么排行榜的东西，但我的歌成为冠军的时候，我还是显示出了极度的兴奋。” 除了Mariah声音的力量之外，"Vision Of Love"所传递的信息也让听众感动。虽然有人将"Vision Of Love"定义为情歌，Mariah却认为歌词实际上是描述了她最终获得唱片合约的感受。在和MTV News的一次访谈中，Mariah解释说"Vision Of Love"包含了很多内容。我和Columbia唱片公司签约之后，我创作了这首歌曲。这是我生命中一个重要的转折点，但它主要是因为这个成绩而想要找到一种内在的宁静和一种内在的力量……基本上就是庆祝我的人生，以及在我写这首歌的时候发生在我生活中的一些事情。 “每件事情都发生的如此之快，我几乎没有机会坐下来，只能前进。喔，这真的发生了。” 这只是Mariah事业的开始，Mariah Carey来了。（Thanks 4 Jaynew ^_^） 歌词Treated me kind 温柔的待我吧 Sweet destiny 甜蜜的宿命 Carried me through desperation 携我穿过绝望 To the one that was waiting for me 去到那等待我的人儿身边 It took so long 漫长的时间 Still I believed 我仍然相信 Somehow the one that I needed 无论如何，我要的人 Would find me eventually 最终将会找到我 I had a vision of love 我有对爱的憧憬 And it was all that you've given to me 那是你给我的所有 Prayed through the nights 整夜祈祷 Felt so alone 我感觉好孤独 Suffered from alienation 忍受人群的疏远 Carried the weight on my own 承受所有的负累 Had to be strong 我必须坚强 So I believed 真的相信 And now I know I've succeeded 而且我知道，我已成功 In finding the place I conceived 寻找到我梦想的地方 I had a vision of love (ooooh) 我有对爱的憧憬 And it was all that you've given to me 那是你给我的所有 I had a vision of love (ooooh) 我有对爱的憧憬 And it was all that you've given me 那是你给我的所有 I've realized a dream 我实现了一个梦 And I visualized 我梦想 The love that came to be 那爱情 Feel so alive 感觉如此鲜活 I'm so thankful that I perceived 我那么感激我得到的 The answer that heaven has sent down to me 那个从天堂传来的答案 You treated me kind (yeah) 你对我如此温柔 Sweet destiny (all that you did) 甜美的宿命（你所做的一切） And I'll be eternally grateful 我将永远的感谢 Holding you so close to me 紧紧的抓住你 Prayed through the nights 整夜祈祷 So faithfully 那么虔诚 Knowing the one that I needed 我知道我所要的人 Would find me eventually (would find me) 最终将会找到我(找到我) I had a vision of love (ooooh) 我有对爱的憧憬 And it was all that you've given to me 那是你给我的所有 I had a vision of love (ooooh) 我有对爱的憧憬 And it was all that you turned out to be 那都是你 明星们的评价Mary J. Blige: "I love Mariah Carey. Mariah Carey's music saved little ghetto children's lives. Songs like "Visions of Love" gave us hope and we would sing those songs and try to hit every note like Mariah -- which we can't. I don't think she knows what a big part she plays in Mary J. Blige's life. And then to meet her... she's such a beautiful person that you can't do anything but defend her when [the media] starts acting stupid on her. She doesn't deserve that." (Barnes and Noble interview) “ 我爱MC,MC的歌拯救了很多不幸的人. 歌曲如VISION OF LIVE给了我们希望，我们唱MC的歌,试着像她一样唱出那些那些高音--虽然我们不能。我不知道她是否知道她在Mary J. Blige的生命中扮演了多高的一个角色。有一次我和她见了面……她是如此美丽的一个人，每当媒体愚蠢地攻击她的时候你都会情不自禁的维护她，她值得你这么做。” Rihanna: "I used to sing 'Vision of Love' all the time in the shower, using my toothbrush as my microphone." (51st Grammy Awards Promo) “我喜欢在沐浴的时候唱'Vision Of Love'，用我的牙刷当麦克风。” (第51届格莱美宣传) Beyonce Knowles: "'Vision of Love,' when I first heard that song, I knew it, my mind was made up - I had to be a singer." (MTV Europe) “'Vision Of Love'，我第一次听到这首歌的时候，我知道，我已经下定决心——我要成为一名歌手。” Nelly Furtado: "The first singer I really got into was Mariah Carey when I was about 12. She kind of taught me how to sing 'cause, you know, couldn't really afford singing lessons. So, I would just listen to Mariah Carey's CD over and over again, and learn all her lyrics." (MTV Overdrive) 我12岁第一个喜欢上的歌手是MC 她可以说教导了我如何唱歌，你知道,我以前付不起歌唱课的学费,所以我就去听MC的唱片, 她的歌词我都会. Whitney Houston: When asked if she remembered first hearing Mariah's music, Whitney replied by singing a line from "Vision of Love" and said, "Yep, I remember it. It was like, kinda, my tone, not quite me. Who is she?" (MTV interview with John Norris) 当惠特尼休斯顿被问及她是否记得第一次听Mariah的音乐时，Whitney用清唱一小段'Vision Of Love'来回答这个问题。然后说，“是的，我记得。有点像我，但又不是。她是谁？” Nivea: "I was watching 'The Arsenio Hall Show,' and Mariah was performing 'Vision of Love.' The way she projected her voice, she just had so much power. I knew then that I wanted to make people feel the way she made me feel. I bought all her albums and learned all the songs. That's all I would do all day long sing Mariah Carey songs." (Yahoo! Music Interview) 我看过MC在ARSENIO HALL上表演'Vision Of Love'，她的声音太有力量了，我真想像她那样感染听众. 我买了她所有的唱片,学了所有歌 我曾经整天唱MC的歌 Lucie Silvas: "I was obsessed. I remember the moment I first heard Vision of Love, then I saw this white girl with a black voice on television, and everything about her bowled me over. You could relate to her and yet she was a magical icon, and throughout my school days all I dreamed of was being like Mariah Carey. She sang with a gospel choir around her, which was always my dream. I just wanted to be her." (Guardian Unlimited) “ 第一次听到'Vision Of Love'我就被迷住啦，我看到了电视里一个有黑人嗓音的白人女孩，她的一切让我震撼。你可以将她和神奇符号画上等号，而我在校园的梦想就是成为Mariah Carey这样的人。像她一样和福音合唱团一起唱歌，就是我一直拥有的梦想。我只想成为她。” Anastacia: "From her very first album till now her voice has been absolutely glorious to listen to. I am affected by every note she hits, which is practically every note on the keyboard." (Smash Hits) “从她的第一张专辑至今，她的声音是绝对值得去聆听的。我被她的每一个音符感动，尽管这些音符来自键盘。” Christina Aguilera: "I discovered Mariah in my room one day listening to the radio, and as soon as 'Vision of Love' came on, I ran downstairs going, 'Mommy, Mommy - I just found the greatest person in the world! I just heard the greatest new voice!'" (Entertainment Weekly) “有一天我在家里听电台的时候发现了Mariah，当时'Vision Of Love'出来，我立刻跑到楼下并叫道，‘妈妈，妈妈——我找到了全世界最伟大的人。我听到了全世界最伟大的声音！” Snoop Dogg: "I always tell her this story: When I was locked up in jail, that song 'Vision of Love' was the hottest song in the world. I used to always say, 'Man, if I could meet her!'" (MTV) “我经常告诉她这个故事，当我还在监狱的时候，'Vision Of Love'就是全世界最热的歌。我经常想‘如果能见到她就好了。’” |
