春晚以后, 我经常忍不住打开视频, 看王菲与陈奕迅合唱的>, 看了一遍又一遍, 从不感到厌倦.
After the Spring Festival Gala, I could not help watching the video clip again and again where Wang Fei and Chen Yixun (two famous singers in China) sang the song, Because of Love.
关于春晚王菲唱歌的声音有点问题的事情, 网上闹得沸沸扬扬. 有人说王菲老了, 唱功不如从前, 也有人说那是因为校音人员没有调好音的缘故. 但是所有的这些都没有吸引我的注意力. 吸引我的, 是王菲在唱歌时的表情.
There has been a heated discussion on the problem about Wang Fei’s singing at the Gala. Some people say that Wang Fei has become old and can no longer sing as well as she used to while some believe that the problem came from the music tuning staff who did not do their job well during the three minutes’ singing. But all these have hardly drawn my attention. What has attracted me most is Wang Fei’s facial expressions during her singing.
如果说王菲的歌声如出谷黄莺令人消魂, 那么她唱歌时的表情便如年代久远的红酒佳酿, 令人沉醉. 看着她平静的脸在唱到高兴处轻微掠过的一丝笑容, 唱到深情处悄悄飘过的一丝眷恋, 看着她唱到动情处情不自禁地闭起双眼, 那一刻, 我才深深地体会到一个真正乐坛歌后的内在魅力: 她演唱时自然流露的表情与动作, 比她的歌声来得更加动情与真挚! 一个真正懂得欣赏王菲的人, 不会为她在春晚短短的三分多钟里略有遗憾的歌声而感到过分的叹息, 更不会为此而对她感到失望甚至全盘否定. 相反, 真正懂得欣赏这位传奇女性的人, 会为她在经历了感情, 生活以及工作中无数曲折而依然屹立在歌坛显赫一方而感到由衷的欣慰与赞赏! 岁月的洗礼让她渐渐失去了少女的情怀, 却让她变得更加风情大度, 显现出女人的真正本色与魅力! 同时也让她的歌变得更加有张力与深度, 直击聆听者内心与灵魂的深处, 回音不绝……
If we think Wang Fei’s voice as fascinating as the nightingale’s, then her facial expressions during the course of her singing are just like a time-honored bottle of wine that is not less charming than her voice. Seeing a slight smile slipping across her face when she was singing to the height, a slight sentimental attachment flashing across her face when she was singing to the deep, and her eyes naturally closed when she was singing to the heart, I truly felt the deep-buried charisma of the Singing Queen (the highest honorary title awarded to the most popular female singers in China). I again came to realize that the emotion and facial expressions generated from Wang Fei are more heart-striking than her beautiful voice itself. Those who truly know to appreciate Wang Fei would not feel over-ashamed for her slightly-flawed voice during the three minutes’ singing in the Gala, let alone feeling disappointed or even thoroughly denying her attractiveness to the public. Instead, those who truly know her would feel appreciative and respective of her when she has undergone so many twists and turns, ups and downs in her life and work but still maintained a positive and unyielding attitude towards life. The passing of the time has deprived her of her youth, but has rendered her the peerless charm and temperament a mature female singer is supposed to be endowed with. The passing time has also filled her songs with more depth and insight that can resonate with the audience’s inner voice and echo in their hearts ceaselessly……
江山代有才人出, 各领风骚数百年. 歌坛亦是如此. 很多老一辈曾经恐怕叱咤风云的歌手, 随着岁月的流逝也渐渐地淡出歌坛和观众的视野, 只有当我们怀旧时才会偶然想起他们曾经的风云岁月. 而王菲的乐坛的地位, 不管她多少次退出与复出, 都不曾动摇半分. 仅管在她来来回回的那些年间乐坛的 “歌后” 之称几经变迁, 但是只要她一站在舞台上, 只要她的歌声一出, 所有的人都将为之倾倒与震撼. 后来风光者与她站在一起, 都会多多少少感到压力与汗颜! 或许歌声本身是不能比较高低的, 因为萝卜青菜, 各有所好. 但是谈及唱歌时流露出来的风度与深情, 又有多少人可以与春晚站在台上倾情高歌的王菲相媲美呢?
As a Chinese saying goes, each era would bring forth new genius on this noble land and each will rule its own domain for years to come. It also applies to the music industry. Many once-famous singers have faded away in the music industry as well as in the audience’ eyes. Only when we think of the past to the deep will we think of them. But for Wang Fei, even though she has entered and exited from the music industry multiple times, her status in the music has never been shaken even a bit. Though the title, Singing Queen, has been awarded to different singers in the past years, so long as Wang Fei stands on the stage again and sings her songs, numerous people would be deeply fascinated by her singing. Many budding young singers would feel pressured and humble when standing with her. Maybe it is not justified to judge whose songs are more superior, because different people may have different tastes on songs. But when it comes to the emotion and temperament generated during the singing, how many singers else could be compared with Wang Fei who was singing emotionally in the Gala?
看到春晚上打扮质朴却令人如此动容的王菲, 我深受感染. 那是一种内心深处深刻的敬爱与赞赏! 从她的表情与举足之间, 我读懂了什么是投入, 什么是挚爱, 什么是执着, 什么是眷恋! 我深信, 经历了岁月与风雨洗涤后的王菲, 必将变得更加美丽与璀灿……
Seeing the plain-dressed but so lovely Wang Fei, I felt deeply affected. My feeling is stemming from my deep-buried appreciation and admiration to her! From her facial expressions and gestures, I understand what is devotion, what is love, what is insistence and what is dedication! I strongly believe that Wang Fei, after bathing in time and storms in the past, would grow to be more beautiful and glorious…… |
