※ 引述《cherified (榭俐霏)》之銘言： : 這篇文章也是從上面那個古老的網站中抓來的!! : 資訊還是一樣跟現在有點落差喔,有請三劍客幫忙更新補完啊!!! (拜) : 原本想要一次貼完的,但是批踢踢好容易當機喔,我的批幣都飛了 T T : 所以還是分個兩三次貼好了版主辛苦了。本來想幫忙把每句都翻成中文，大家讀起來比較輕鬆，可是這些句子實在太多啦！！所以我也發表一點感想就好... 囧 : ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- : Not only can Graham play the guitar and shitloads of other instruments, sing, : write and paint, he also HAS LOTS TO SAY ! : 1. "I bought Cinnamon and Golden Grahams and these indie kids in the shop : laughed at me. It was funny but embarrassing." : (綿羊何不用你的大牙反咬回去呢!!! 噢不年少時期可是很以和為貴的, : 可能是難搞的綿羊基因尚未突變,也有可能後來才進入擬態模式??????) 當時的情況他應該只是覺得很害羞又很好笑吧 XD Golden Grahams長這樣 http://tinyurl.com/n3cmgb : 2. (If you had a superpower what would it be ?) "The US. I'd make it small : enough to fit in my spare room. Then George Bush would be ant sized and I'd : put him in a matchbox so he couldn't come out." : (葛拉拉是個美國小孩,具體點說應該是德裔美國小孩 : 他除了穿衣風格稍稍英國以外,還是比較像德國人跟美國人!!!) 他是標準英國小孩。葛拉爸是駐德國的軍樂隊，所以小葛拉出生後在德國待過幾年，他過世的爺爺教過他講一點德文，除此之外他跟一般英國小朋友沒兩樣。 : 3. "Being a dad is amazing, yeah. That's where I'm learning more about me : than anywhere else, from this little girl who doesn't really know what is : happening in the world. Doesn't know anything. She's helped me become the : emperor of myself really." : (潛在的 control freak!!) 沒有控制狂這麼嚴重啦 XDDD 養育女兒那種被需要的感覺，讓他感受到自己也有照顧別人的能力，這點讓一向缺乏自信且生活一度失控的葛拉稍微找回信心。 : 4. (What do you think of the Gorillaz stuff?) "That's a tough question. : (long pause) And now I'll leave it at that! No, it's cool, Damon's doing his : thing, and he needs to do his thing. We all do. You know, I don't expect : anybody to particularly like my stuff. And I think that's the healthiest way : you can make music really, not expecting people to like it." : (這應該是有點年紀以後說的話了,標準的後期訪問風格 : 不過gorillaz也是要到葛拉拉三十歲以後才比較上軌道不是嗎:P) : 5. (Are you pissed off with Gorillaz becoming more popular than Blur?) : "No i'm not, although i'd like to know who's buying Gorillaz. But it's good : because it's Damon's. He's doing what he wants to do. I think it's obviously : going to be more popular than Blur stuff because it's of a substandard nature : to Blur stuff. The music is pretty good but the more popular a thing is in : this country, the more rubbish it is. It'd be best if people listened to : simpler music, stuff that resonates more soulfully." : (同上,但他也間接承認大門猴是blur的主導人) 嗯，Gorillaz我也很喜歡。他們在英國以外真的比Blur紅很多，在Youtube甚至有人把Gorillaz MV配上Song 2，引來路人問 "這首歌是誰唱的？聲音怎麼那麼像2D？" : 6, "I'm squeamish about seafood. I can't pull the heads off shrimps and : things like that ; get me fingers all mucky in their eggs and peel the armour : off. I dont like that." : (蝦很好吃耶@@ 可惜了葛拉拉) 他還是很愛吃海鮮，只是吃起來笨手笨腳，而且還吃到食物中毒。（遠目） : 7. (Do you have any phobias ?) "I used to not be able to walk up Parkway : (busy Camden thoroughfare). I'd completely avoid it because I thought people : would be making comments about me. I suppose that's what comes with being a : slightly recognisable figure around here, you wonder what people are gonna : be saying. " : (戴口罩跟帽子不就好了!!即使很怪,那就太陽眼鏡吧,好像也挺怪的齁!) 英國似乎不流行變裝那套？葛拉那麼害羞又很介意別人對他的看法，難怪都宅在家上網。 : 8, (If you were Prime Minister, what would you do ?) "Change the national : anthem to nothing. I don't like nationality." : (很不英國的一面) 他只是對政治化的議題不感興趣。 : 9. (Are you good in bed ?) "Absolutely. Not. I'm very good at sleeping. : I go to sleep very quick. I don't know about shagging. I can be good, : i can be awful. I think i'm quite selfless." : (葛拉拉有一個傾向:回答不想回答的問題都會spaced out!! 亂講一通) 他不是故意的，離題太遠+碎碎唸是他的風格。XD 這個應該表示他在床上比較投入於配合對方... 版上可以出現這種話題嗎？！（羞） : 10. "Graham's fans seem to be really fucking mad. Alex fans just seem to be : mad. The classic fanbase of people that like Damon are completely fine. : I just seem to attract complete nutters." : (讓我想到大門猴曾經說"葛拉拉的fans都會想吃了他" : 烤羊肉真的不錯啊~~羊肉爐也很好吃~~) 綿羊何時變成官方外號了？（爆）如果常去Blur官方討論區的人應該不難發現，葛拉常有超級熱情的粉絲，這些粉絲的ID不外是Graham's Angel, Graham's Chic, Miss Graham之類，特別是南美洲粉絲示愛相當激烈 XDDD 他的亞洲粉絲也很多，表達方式比較傾向普遍級。 : 11. "The obsessive psychos that are our original fanbase, you know, : they're the ones I like... Our original audiences, they're the people : I'm the most fond of, not the people who just do what the TV tells them : to do." : (fashion is doing the things you're told, innit? by吉他手06四月號) 葛拉拉說過，厲害的粉絲連他在小地方彈錯都會發現，有次他還很開心地說這些專業粉絲很變態（當然是葛式稱讚）。 : 12. "I think it's better if blokes can admit that they can have crushes : on other blokes. I've probably had crushes but never really sexual crushes : on men." : (葛拉拉對男人沒有幻想!!!大叔fans要哭哭囉) 錯，他對男人常常有幻想！...... 我開玩笑的...吧。此人前陣子才對Kevin Ayers大發花癡，還在自己的討論區宣佈Ayers是他最新一任老公，(可見還有前幾任呢) 並且把簽名檔換成Ayers帥照一張。在家邊泡澡邊聽Ayers的歌... 嘖嘖。難怪大叔們都要用雄厚的聲音對他示愛：Graham You're so great！他(也)喜歡女生啦，大家別誤會。 : 13. "I crapped on my jumper. I wanted to poo and I forgot it was tied around : my waist. I had to throw it into someone's garden." : (好噁心XDDDDDDDDDD) 這個是在講他第一次喝醉的經驗，大便大在毛衣上。笨蛋 XDDDD : 14. "Being run over is quite scary,actually - You have that split second when : you say 'ooh, crikey!' shut your eyes, grit your teeth and bounce off the : bonnet. I had to ask a copper if I was dead." : (這個在訪問葛拉拉代言cordings那篇報導裡面有!! : 其實想起來那場景應該還頗無腦的...年少輕狂啊) 他被車撞過兩次，兩次都是都是喝醉的狀態下不小心被撞，還有媒體亂揣測他可能想輕生，不過葛拉說兩次都純屬意外。 : 15. "I'm trying to learn skateboard at the moment. I tried to skate in : bare feet, bad idea. I completely cut up my toes." : (好吧我相信你曾經是滑板男孩,但老了別再做這種事情啦免得骨頭散掉!!) 以前他會在休息室溜過來溜過去，Alex那時候躺在地上睡覺，貼了一張紙條： "警告葛拉：不准在我頭旁邊溜滑板！敢吵醒我的話我就把那塊該死的滑板折斷丟出窗外！" 葛拉將興趣轉到玩重機已經好幾年囉，30歲以後玩滑板可能要忍耐別人異樣的眼光。不過上次他接受NME採訪，房間的書桌底下還是放著一個滑板。 : 16. "Spiders are cool but I'm still scared of them . But I don't kill them." : (可以想像他看到蜘蛛尖叫的畫面嗎!!!! : 或是他可以跟蜘蛛說: oochy woochy XDDDD) 昨天有人在他討論區貼了一張蜘蛛照片，他哀號： "那是什麼外星來的鬼玩意！把照片拿掉，不然我只好拿掉我的眼睛！" : 17. "My old flat is covered with carcasses of mosquitos all over the walls : because I never bothered to clean up , as a warning." : (the god of mess-ups again) 把蚊子屍體留在牆壁上以警告其他蚊子 ---- 不知道該說他很可愛還是很邋遢。 : 18. "I'm a Christian without God. I'm an agnostic erection boy. : Whatever that means... Barman! Barman!" : (他只相信酒神dionysus吧!!) 他沒有特別信什麼教，對於未知的力量持寧可信其有的態度，他相信世界上有小精靈和小仙子，還在花園幫他們小蓋房子。 XD : 19. "I'm perfectly charming and then at the point where I start forgetting : what's happening I get drunk and that's when I turn into a horrible bastard." : (在喝醉以外的時刻我都是很迷人的唷~啾咪!!!) 清醒的葛拉對外是個禮貌的好孩子，對熟人意見比較多，難以取悅，有點醉意的葛拉會搞笑也特別活潑，爛醉的葛拉是個恐怖的神經病。 : 20. "You have to learn to keep your mouth shut when you have to get any : drinks in." : (有加菲貓的感覺) 有段時間他就是學不乖，酒來張口。那是他逃避現實的方式。 : 21. (about alcohol) "Chocolate does the same thing to your happy centres. : But you can't have ten Mars Bars and be rolling around on the floor insulting : people and shouting and crying for no reason. Which is a shame. Heheheh." : (巧克力比起酒來還是略遜一籌因為他不會使你醉orz) 食用巧克力跟酒都會讓人快樂，但是吃再多巧克力都沒辦法讓你在地上打滾邊罵人邊大哭大叫借酒裝瘋，這是巧克力可惜之處，嘿嘿。真令人傷腦筋啊，葛拉。喔對了，他很喜歡吃巧克力這類甜食。 : 22. "If I was one of my friends, Graham Coxon would be the person I most : likely saw stopped drinking." : (一度曾經是不可能的任務啊) 幸好現在戒了。他還活著真是個奇蹟，希望他繼續保持下去。 : 23. "When I started to swear at furniture, I knew it was time to stop drinking" : (XDDD 家具跟人傻傻分不清楚) 那畫面還蠻好笑的，此人是個爛酒鬼。 : 24. "Cynicism is something I really dislike, and the thing about becoming : soberer and clearer is that a lot of cynicism disappears. I don't want to : be a bloke who shies away from emotion." : (這段話有很怪的矛盾) 不曉得這段話有沒有漏字... 他的意思大致是說葛拉個性很直，遇到討厭的東西喜歡直接反應意見，喝醉的他可以盡情取笑不喜歡的事物，可是沒有酒精的幫助，生性害羞的葛拉無法暢所欲言，他不喜歡這樣害羞的自己。（我看他在討論區酸人酸得倒是很開心呀 XDDD） : 25. (on being asked whether he'd quit drinking for good) : "I still drink non-alchoolic drinks" : (比方說紅牛提神飲料啊) 還有可口可樂啊... 咖啡，還有加了糖的茶。 : 26. "When you drink and smoke you kind of float around. : That's why these straight-edge bands are so uptight. I couldn't imagine : being teetotal forever. I like to be a bit of everything. Yeah, I am drinking : at the moment, but not too much." : (葛拉拉應該會很嚮往中國式的神遊太虛幻境,oh such an oriental touch!!) 小酌幾杯無傷大雅。 : 27. "Me giving up drinking was like a miracle." : (i cannot agree more!) : 28. "We used to drink so much. I'd have a bottle of wine under the chair : my amp was sat on and I'd swig my way trough that." : (感覺很像捷運上偷吃檳榔的大叔!!!!) 整團都很愛喝，他跟大門在95年以前常常在台上爛醉，特別是美國巡迴期間。 : 29. "Jack Daniels makes us all puke." : (哈哈哈) : 30. "I don't like drugs - never liked drugs. I'm not a very good creature : for things like that, I haven't got enough confidence." : (其實是怕吸毒人會變醜吧!! 葛拉拉這麼愛漂亮!!!) 葛拉自制力比較差，他說過自己不像大門抽煙嗑藥想戒就戒，如果他當年沾了毒品... 後果不堪設想。 : 31. "Words I use for 'excellent' are brilliant, smart, decent, ace. : And we use 'blinking' instead of a real swear word, like when you're : with your grandmother." : (很基本的綿羊用語!!) 還有 "bah!" XD : 32. "Of course I'm an hedonist, what else worth living for? : The rest is just killing time really.. " : (這一看也知道至少是五~十年前說的話!!) 倒覺得這句話相當有道理... 活在當下！ >D< : 33. "I'm attracted to trauma. I like things like that.I'm a born martyr." : (真的是天生要葬在忠烈祠的那種...下面還有一段說他為了女朋友冷戰而撞衣櫃!!!) 此人天生多愁善感，大門說葛拉很像那種會掏出手帕來咳血的古代詩人，葛拉邊笑卻沒有否認 XD : 34. "After Blur , I'll get married." : (你現在也還沒結婚啊不是嗎XD) 有女朋友啦，這回不知可以撐多久。當年最想結婚的人到現在還是沒找到伴。 : 35. "We're very dissatisfied with anything that isn't slightly...twisted. : I like people like John Lennon who are stars in a totally anti-star way." : (說得好) 他本身就是這樣 - star in a totally anti-star way. cool in a totally un-cool way. XD : 37. "I hate the video for "Country House". I love the song, but : the association with it has become Page Three and Benny hill instead of : Blur." : (這MV的確還蠻糟的XD) 這支MV最沒意義的就是那些活脫來自色情雜誌的辣妹，還上演"唷呵呵來追我啊"的老派戲碼，導演Damien Hirst品味的確很糟。 : 38. "If I’d done what I was supposed to do in the "Country House" video : I would have had a lobotomy by now. I was supposed to do all sorts of nasty : things – getting bottoms in my face and chasing girls." : (這MV一定多半是alex出的主意... 我承認我對他有偏見) 你得到他了。Alex跟導演很麻吉，葛拉當年被逼著下海演出，相當不爽。 : 39. "Damon ?? sexy ?? He's about as sexy as a stuffed fish , pal!" : (嬉皮式的死魚XDDDD) 這個是某張大門演唱會照片的註解，那時有很多少女覺得大門很性感，可是那張照片的大門流很多汗看起來有點恍神，於是葛拉在旁邊喊 -- "大門？性感？他的性感程度跟餐桌上肚子塞餡料的烤魚差不多！" 不過葛拉有在其他場合稱讚過大門長得很帥。XD : 40. "Damon wasn't liked (at school) and I thought he was a vain wanker." : (wanker這字用得很精確!!!) 啊哈哈哈，對熟人的吐槽毫不留情。大門以前在學校常常因白目被揍。 : 41. (on Damon) "I used to come around and see him and he'd play this : weird stuff that was endless piano, with no singing in it at all. It was : just nuts." : (綿羊大砲) 這是在講以前他們在學校剛認識的時候，當時大門的創作和表現慾望就很旺盛，沒事喜歡彈些小曲炫技。殊不知往後好多年，Blur的歌曲多半由此方式生出，大門先隨興彈奏，葛拉在旁邊以吉他應和，碰撞出火花後，團員們以這段旋律延伸出完整的一首歌。這就是兩人無可取代的默契。 : 42. "Damon will always have extremes. When we were at school together, : he would always be duffed up in the toilets. We used to go out on the town : and he'd get beaten up by the New Model Army crew. We used to go to a pub : called The Cups, and every time I went there with Damon he'd go to the bog : and he'd have his beating up. And he'd go: 'Graham, Graham, I've just been : beaten up.' And I'd go: 'Oh my God.' So he'd go: 'I'm going'. And I'd say: : 'No, stay, have another drink.' And then he'd go, and I'd stay behind and : get drunk with the people who beat him up." : (兩個人都是爛嘴如泥的酒鬼,下面還有一段說葛拉拉是人型腳踏墊更好笑!!) 這段一直是我很喜歡的往事！非常好笑 XDDDD 那時候他們還在唸書，不是酒鬼，只是跟一般英國年輕人一樣去酒吧鬼混，可是大門常常得罪人，被揍之後跑去跟葛拉抱怨：葛拉我們回家好不好？葛拉就回答：老天啊（漫不經心貌）大門說：我想走了。葛拉就拗他：別走嘛再喝一杯。於是大門就摸摸鼻子回家，葛拉留下來跟剛剛揍大門的人一起喝酒。XD 由這段往事可以看出葛拉是做人比較成功的那個，年少無知的大門老是被揍，實在又可憐又好笑。 : 43. "Damon is a self-centred fucker sometimes." : (牡羊座的人好像都這樣XD 哈哈我跟大門同星座) Yes he is, but he means no harm. : 44. "If Damon goes on about football and Page Three girls, that means : we all get associated with it. I hate football and I hate Page Three Girls, : but people always want to hear Damon's opinion." : (沒辦法誰叫大門比較三八啊) 他是主唱嘛，也是創作核心之一。媒體總是比較注意主唱。 : 45. "It seems that Damon and I are going to be in each other's lives musically : forever, in some way or other. Whether it's with Blur or without Blur or sort : of like the Old Gits, probably. Which is quite an amusing thought. We just : get on very well, especially musically." : (你們一定是生命共同體的啊^^ 兩人上輩子說不定是夫妻) 我很喜歡這段的描述，他們兩人的音樂默契不是蓋的，很高興他們倆破鏡重圓，希望以後可以聽到新的作品。 : 46. The first thing Damon ever said to me was that his shoes were more : expensive than mine. Eventually, he went off to work in drama school in : London." : (大門猴小小年紀就掉入物欲的火坑啊...阿彌陀佛) 也不是說物欲，大門應該是個幾乎沒有物欲的人（以有錢人來講），小時候大門的家境是四人當中最好，他又是個直來直往說話毫不客氣的人，當年兩人見面的時候，葛拉穿著一雙皮鞋，大門就指指自己的皮鞋囂張地說： "你看，這才是真正的好貨。" （由此可見為何大門老是被人揍）葛拉的意思是，大門行為戲劇化老愛引人注目，所以最後真的去上戲劇學校。 : 47. (on "The Great Escape" period)"Damon and I were becoming like : Business Associates, whenever we'd see each other we had to dress up : in suits and clean our teeth." : (那你們其他時間都在幹麻) 葛拉指的是他跟團員關係惡化的時期，有段時間他跟大門冷戰不講話，見面的時候不像朋友，反而像生意人，很可悲其實。 : 48. "I hate a lot of things that Alex stands for.I don't want people to think : it's what this band is about. All that Groucho Club bollocks and him going on : about birds and boozing all the time, I hate that." : (綿羊對把妹痛飲的活動不感興趣...只喜歡彈吉他) 一個高調，一個低調的差別。 Alex喜歡泡夜店把妹，對Alex來說，Blur的走紅使他在各派對無往不利，還可以結識各界名流，簡直置身天堂。然而對害羞的葛拉來說，Alex喜愛的生活方式是他痛恨的，成名之後的壓力和社交場合反而是地獄。 : 49. "It's nothing bad between me and Alex. It's just to do with sense of : humour. We're very similar. If he wants to try and be in The Average White : Band then I'm going to be in the Gang Of Four. I'm cutting against him all : the time, because he's, like, a sexy musician and I feel... shy and clumsy. : So I try and fuck up his funk. It's basically teenage party jealousy." : (dun every say that!! 綿羊類型的男人會越老越帥!!) 嘿嘿，綿羊的嫉妒。Alex是典型的風流帥哥，葛拉覺得自己是個阿宅。然而我們都是被他的宅吸引呀！ : 50. "Alex's idea of glamour is my idea of death, really." : (XD 可想而知) 品味相差十萬八千里。 XD 不過他們其實蠻要好的，生日都會互送禮物或一起慶祝，特別是Alex對葛拉可說是讚不絕口，頻頻示好。 : 51. "You become totally aware of your every action. It's a very weird thing : not to be able to walk to the shops without thinking of yourself as the : guitarist in Blur walking to the shops." : (嗯嗯) 跟以前比起來，現在應該比較自在了吧。雖然還是喜歡宅在家。 : 52. "I don't feel famous at all. I've noticed it, and I suppose it's become : an effort to be unfamous. It's crude, but the idea I have of myself is of : someone who's getting pints of milk on the corner in the morning." : (incentive!! 若你有在牛奶公司上班的話, : 我一定會訂購你們的牛奶,而且每天早上都會站在家門口等你送過來XDDD) 這又讓我想到他很喜歡開牛奶車（Country House那台），說過想當牛奶工人。好可愛。好長.......！！已經不知多久沒浮上水面po文... 另外兩篇有空再回覆。囧 -- ～ your humble shepherd. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 58.114.109.37
