放松，别紧张！- Relax, Take It Easy - by Mika

(2008-02-20 13:27:00) 下一个


也许你会问：“嗯，这么熟的旋律和节奏，好像在哪听过？”，在shoping center？机场？酒吧？餐馆？还是你在开车的时候从收音机传来的？

前几天在西班牙Malaga开车转悠，找路去Picasso 毕加索博物馆，一路我只会“Holla（你好），Holla”地问路，当然还要charming， 热情的西班牙人随之叽里咕噜地“唱”一大通，都没有停下来的意思，我只有耐心和礼貌地听他们“唱歌”，仔细看他们的手势，他们偶尔夹杂一两个和法语发音相近的词也可以帮我们连蒙带猜，正当发愁时，忽然收音机传来这一曲轻松愉快的音乐，Mika的《 Relax, Take It Easy》，“ok, 放松，别紧张！”音乐还真灵，开着车左拐右拐，一会儿就到毕加索博物馆附近了。

Mika是一位年仅25岁就闻名世界流行歌坛的音乐奇才，英俊帅气，22岁成名，集歌手，自己作曲，作词，音乐制作于一身。

Mika，原名为Mica Penniman 出身在黎巴嫩贝鲁特，母亲是黎巴嫩人，父亲是美国人，家中五个孩子，Mika 排行老三。 一岁那年Mika和家人被迫离开战火的家园，迁居巴黎，九岁时又随家人移居伦敦，在伦敦的法语中学就读，在学校备受同学的歧视（bully），而且患有失读症（dyslexia）， 11岁时曾不得不中断学习， 在家由母亲教课6-8个月。最后竟还能考入Westminster School， 一所比Eton伊顿还好的伦敦男孩私立中学就读， 而后在英国皇家音乐学院学音乐。

比起其他患有失读症（dyslexia）的人，Mika 是很幸运的。

Mika - Relax, Take It Easy

Music and words by Mika

Took a ride to the end of the lane
Where no one ever goes.
Ended up on a broken train with nobody I know.
But the pain and the longing's the same.
When you're dying
Now I’m lost and I’m screaming for help alone.

Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can't do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.

It’s as if I’m scared.
It’s as if I’m terrified.
It’s as if I'm scared.
It’s as if I’m playing with fire.
Scared.
It’s as if I’m terrified.
Are you scared?
Are we playing with fire?

Relax
(Love) There is an answer to the darkest times.
It’s clear we don’t understand it, but the last thing on my mind
Is to leave you.
I believe that we’re in this together.
Don’t scream – there are so many roads left.

Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can't do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.

Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can't do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.

Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can't do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.

Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can't do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.

It’s as if I’m scared.
It’s as if I’m terrified.
It’s as if I'm scared.
It’s as if I’m playing with fire.
(Relax)
Scared.
It’s as if I’m terrified.
Are you scared?
Are we playing with fire?

Relax
Relax

[spoken:]

Same day I want to dress for wedding
Same day while i won't married
What happened, He's go meeted another girl
While he was married another girl, I was very very sad
I can talk like God take my legs
How he's made a different lady, I no believe.

After one month i am send out to balcony
Some bomb, come for my eyes. My eyes gone.
My eyes gone in bomb, now i have only one eyes.
I am sad, until now I no married any man after.

Mica Penniman (born 18 August 1983), known as Mika (pronounced /ˈmiːkə/), is a Lebanese-born, London-based, Grammy and BRIT Award-nominated singer-songwriter who has a recording contract with Casablanca Records and Universal Music. He rose to fame around the end of 2006 and the start of 2007. Some sources[1][2][3] note his birth name as Michael Holbrook Penniman.

Mika was born in Beirut, Lebanon, the third of five children born to a Lebanese mother of Syrian-Lebanese descent and an American father. When he was a year old his family was forced to leave war-torn Lebanon and moved to Paris. After listening to Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box," he wrote his first song, which he describes as an "awful" piano instrumental called "Angry". The family moved to London when he was nine years old. In London he attended the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle where he experienced severe bullying at school, had problems with dyslexia and experienced a break-down at age 11, so he was home-schooled by his mother for six to eight months.[3]. He then attended St Philips School in Kensington. Later he attended Westminster School and the Royal College of Music, which he left to record his first album at Casablanca Records.[4]

He slightly altered his given name, Mica, changing the "c" to a "k," because he was frustrated by how often people would mispronounce it.
