一直有种冲动,想追本溯源。。。对toby,喜欢他的粉们,可能想掘地三尺,深度挖掘到他体无完肤。。。粉们的敬业程度超乎想象呵。。。话说,追一个外国的星星,哪有那么容易的事。。。这很需要技术含量。。。我也有想更深入细致的了解他的想法。。。可是,事实上,这是个非常低调的人,要了解他,仅有的可能是,通过他的作品、外粉、访谈、或者考证他的周边,寻找蛛丝马迹,而他谨慎的言谈举止,不会流露出什么消息,可以做为小报头条、或者卖点。他不屑于出卖自己的灵魂,获取丰厚的利润。
面对这样的人,想要化解我心里这种冲动的唯一方法,只能是反复消化吸收他的每一部作品,反复咀嚼品尝他的每一句话,反复揣摩玩味他的每一个表情,从而获得一种心里上的满足感、喜悦感、钦佩感。。。但我知道,这离谜底还有很远,我只是一个跨越时空阻隔、步众人尘后的、微不足道的千万粉粉中的一个。
开这个贴,是想通过音乐,和各位粉粉一起,来了解toby的另一面。。。有点“听其言观其行,肺肝如见”的味道。他喜欢的音乐类型颇丰富,古典、流行都有,出身正统戏剧世家的toby,从小耳濡目染的都是莎士比亚剧作的人,以戏剧表演作为毕生事业和兴趣,他的舞台表演都是根植于英国的传统文化,有着丰富的本土文化内涵,也可以说是大英帝国最值得炫耀的文化遗产,这是非常古典、怀旧的东西。现在在英国,很多人并不会花那么大价钱去看什么国家歌剧院的一场昂贵演出,但是,对toby来说,这意味着传承、意味着自我实现、意味着他的价值观、人生观,对于这样的人来说,自然而然的,他的偏好也会有所不同。
如果这种偏好表现在音乐上,也一定会有他的个性的印记,他是一个非常感性、情绪化的人,他有着纤细、敏感、丰富、脆弱的神经,他会在听音乐的时候,莫名的伤感、流泪。。。用他的话说,“这不是理所当然的应该流泪”,而是就是在听音乐的时候,你就会被音乐中的某种情绪触动,眼泪不自觉的流下来,相信这种经历,很多人都有过。。。我自己就是其中之一,我有点能够明白,他指的是什么。
这种能触动toby的心的音乐,会是什么样子的呢。。。我真的非常好奇,通过他喜欢的歌手Neil Diamond,也许可以让我们窥一斑而见全豹,观滴水可知沧海。。。我并不是说,toby一定是听了他的音乐而流泪,只是想以此类比。
Neil Diamond的音乐,所诠释的细腻、温和、深情的弦律,绝对的让人沉迷,听过他的歌,90%的人会喜欢上这个歌手,不可思议的是,这种音乐风格,竟然能让我看到toby的影子。Neil Diamond的音乐不一定是主流,但一定是让你听过就难忘,被他音乐中的一种怀旧的情调、一种淡淡的忧伤、一种低调的优雅所电到。。。

下面转一些关于Neil Diamond简介:
尼尔•戴蒙德(Neil Diamond),1941年1月24日出生于纽约的布鲁克林。他在纽约大学医学院学习过一段时间,而后缀学从事音乐工作。最初,戴蒙德以作曲家的身份出现并为他赢得了声誉。1965年底开始唱歌。
1966年以一首<SolitaryMan>打入排行,正式宣告Neil传奇故事的开启。70年代发光发热缔造更为亮眼佳绩,成为少女疯狂追逐之偶像焦点,排行冠军纪录自此快速累积,与Barbra Streisand合唱的<You Don’t Bring Me F1ower>夺下全美单曲榜冠军,同时囊括葛莱美「最佳流行二重唱」及「年度最佳唱片」两项大奖,担任电影《天地一沙鸥/Jonathan Livingston Seagull》原声带主唱,抱走一座葛莱美「最佳电影/电视原声带配乐」加冕,Neil也慢慢将领域跨足至电影界。
1984年正式成为「创作名人殿堂」的终身会员,2002年统计出全球累积1亿1千5百万张销量,仅次於Elton John以及Barbra Streisand两位巨星,名列美国告示牌成人抒情领域的第三高位。这位钻石级的音乐大师Neil Diamond,跨入乐坛40年岁月,丝毫不受岁月快速流逝、后辈崛起之威胁,依旧展现过人的歌唱/创作天赋,缔造无数脍炙人口佳作,至今仍是乐迷们最津津乐道的珍藏宝典。
进入90年代依然魅力不减,曾经一度统计为全美演唱会卖座最佳艺人,秉持一贯风格,突破亿万大关的销售数字、精选特典入藉滚石「史上500张最佳专辑」、偕同乡村女歌手Dolly Parton合唱<You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling>名列BMI「二十世纪流行歌曲百大」之首位…都是Neil的音乐里程中留下最美好之记印。
「创作名人殿堂」终身会员,仅次於Elton John及Barbra Streisand,名列美国告示牌成人抒情领域第三高位的钻石级巨星
2008最新专辑缔造42年来传奇歌唱生涯首张空降全美流行榜冠军专辑纪录。2010年,酝酿两年的《Dreams》,重新翻唱许多耳熟能详的经典老歌,由Neil一手包办制作大任。开场的〈Ain't No Sunshine〉,入选滚石杂志「史上五百首经典歌曲」名单、众多歌手争相翻唱的灵魂大使Bill Withers传世作,爵士钢琴的轻盈飘扬+弦乐柔美辅佐,独特的起伏编曲更是引人入胜;伟大乐团Beatles的〈Blackbird〉,灌入爱尔兰民谣的闲适风味;拿下奥丵斯卡+艾美+格莱美加冕大师Randy Newman的〈Feels Like Home〉,以简约线条传达温暖家园图像,老鹰合唱团的贝斯手Timothy B. Schmit前来和声相伴;灵魂团队Gladys Knight & The Pips夺下排行冠军,同时抱走葛莱美肯定的〈Midnight Train To Georgia〉,一股释放压力的平静优雅感油然而生;还有摇滚名人殿堂」终身会员的Leonard Cohen抚慰灵魂之〈Hallelujah〉、坚守美国南方摇滚岗位的老牌劲旅Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers元老Benmont Tench于〈Yesterday〉钢琴伴奏、Eagles的不朽巨作〈Desperado〉…等曲目,这些耐人寻味的音乐,藉由Neil的领唱,在不同世代中,留下相同的感动。

我真的要向这个帅老头致敬,他的这张专辑《Dreams》(2010发行),实在是我的大爱,这里重点推荐几首该专辑的歌曲给大家。听听他的音乐,也许能让我们觉得,心和toby更接近一点。。。
1 Ain't No Sunshine - Neil Diamond
风格清新,有点新民谣的味道,有点乡土气息,又有点慢摇滚的节奏。。。仅吉它与钢琴就够了,一首好歌就这么诠释出来。。。不做作、不矫情,自然而真实,他诠释出一种截然不同的风格,倘佯在这悠扬的乐曲中,让人的心灵忘记一切烦恼。。。

Ain't No Sunshine - Neil Diamond
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.
Wonder this time where she's gone,
wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
but ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away.
Wonder this time where she's gone,
wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
but ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.

2 Blackbird - Neil Diamond
这首融入了苏格兰风笛的调调,我竟听出了美国西部的风味。。。总让我想起《马语者》的主题曲“a solf place to fall”,充满牛仔风情的乡村音乐,有一阵,我很迷这样的歌曲。。。听起来十分舒畅、轻松,释放所有的压力。。。基本上,靠在沙发上,或者躺在床上,我会单曲循环N遍,真的非常喜欢。。。

Blackbird - Neil Diamond
Blackbird singing in the dead of night  
Take these broken wings and learn to fly  
All your life  
You were only waiting for this moment to arise  
Blackbird singing in the dead of night  
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see  
All your life  
You were only waiting for this moment to be free  
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly  
Into the light of the dark black night  
Blackbird singing in the dead of night  
Take these broken wings and learn to fly  
All your life  
You were only waiting for this moment to arise  
Blackbird singing in the dead of night  
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see  
All your life  
You were only waiting for this moment to be free  
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly  
Into the light of the dark black night  
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly  
Into the light of the dark black night  
Into the light of the dark black night  
Into the light of the dark black night

3    Alone Again (Naturally) - Neil Diamond
我最喜欢的是吉它自弹自唱,那种洒脱,真是无敌。。。这位老兄的嗓音,与这种乐器真是绝配。。。完全的返璞归真。。。那叙事般的调调。。。一切仿佛昨日。。。亲切、平和,记忆飘回到久远的年代。。。很容易迷失在这种调调里。。。

Alone Again (Naturally) - Neil Diamond
In a little while from now,
If I'm not feeling anyless sour ,
I promise myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top will throw myself off,
In an effort to make it clear to who
Ever what it's like when you're shattered.
Left standing in the lurch at a church,
Where people saying 'my God
that's tough she's stood him up
No point in us remaining
We may as well go home'.
As I did on my own.
Alone again, naturally.
To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and gay,
Looking forward to- well who wouldn't do
The role I was about to play.
But as if to knock me down,
Reality came around.
And without so much
As a mere touch
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt
Talk about God in his mercy
Who if he really does exist,
Why did he desert me in my hour of need?
I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally.
It seems to me that there are more hearts
Broken in the world that can't be mended.
Left unattende
What do we do?
What do we do?
Now looking back over the years
And whatever else that appears.
I remember I cried when my father died
Never wishing to hide the tears.
And at sixty-five years old
My mother God rest her soul.
Couldn't understand why the only man
She had ever loved had been taken,
Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken,
Despite encouragemant from me no words were ever spoken
And when she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally.
Alone again, natually.

4    Let It Be Me - Neil Diamond  
这是Neil Diamond为电影《砰然心动》所演唱的片尾曲,这个电影有点《初恋那件小事》的调调,讲的一对男孩和女孩青春萌动的爱情故事。。。好的音乐不需要一切繁饰,舒缓的钢琴伴奏声中,他宽厚、磁性的的嗓声,回响在结尾处,男孩和女孩共植一颗树的情景,打动了我的心。。。

Let It Be Me - Neil Diamond
God bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you
Let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever
Let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you'll love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you'll love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me
And that you'll always
Let it be me

5     Midnight Train To Georgia - Neil Diamond
略带忧伤的调调,有点怅然若失的感觉。。。他和她。。。也许是每个人的故事。。。听这首歌,莫名的伤感。。。总让我联想到一种情。。。不了的情。。。稀饭风琴带来的感觉。。。
http://www.songtaste.com/song/2417764/
Midnight Train To Georgia - Neil Diamond
LA proved too much for the man He couldnt make it,
so he's leaving a life he's come to know
He said he's going back to find what's left of his world
The world he left behind not so long ago
He's leaving on that midnight train to Georgia
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time
I'll be with him on that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine
He kept dreaming that some day he would be a star
But he sure found out the hard way
That dreams don't always come true
So he pawned all his hopes and even sold his old car
For a one way ticket back to the life he once knew
Oh yes he did, he said he would
He's leaving on that midnight train to Georgia
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time
I'm gonna be with him on that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine
I've got to be with him on that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine

6    stones-neil diamond
旋律似曾相似,lalala的这段,比较多出现在校园民谣里,呵呵。。。这首仍然曲风舒缓,让我神清气爽一把。。。基本上,听他的歌曲,绝对的放松。。。心情变的澄清,透明的。。。说明下,这不是那张专辑的呃。。。

stones-neil diamond
Stones would play inside her head
And where she slept
They made her bed
And she would ache
for love And get but stones
La la la la la la la la la
Lordy, child
A good day's comin'
And I'll be there
to let the sun in And bein' lost
Is worth the comin' home
La la la la la la la la la on stones
You and me,
a time for planting
You and me,
a harvest granting The every prayer ever prayed
For just two wild flowers that grow
La la la la la la la la la on stones
Mmmmmmmm.....
