Give me one reason


Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

Baby I got your number and I know that you got mine
But you know that I called you, I called too many times
You can call me baby, you can call me anytime
But you got to call me

Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

I don't want no one to squeeze me - they might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me - they might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me and rock me through the night

This youthful heart can love you yes and give you what you need
I said this youthful heart can love you and give you what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around
Wasting my precious energy

Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said, I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

Baby just give me one reason - Give me just one reason why
Baby just give me one reason - Give me just one reason why I should stay
Said I told you that I loved you
And there ain't no more to say

Tracy Chapman-Fast car



Tracy Chapman的歌声情绪始终如一,慢慢的堆积成一种动人的力量,这样的力量也随着一张张专辑的发表而更加贴近听者的心灵。她的歌曲之所以得到极高评价大部分原因在于音乐上和时下的流行趋势背道而驰,她选择了朴实的民谣使人连想到Bob Dylon的批判性,加上节奏蓝调又感觉没有说教的意味,歌曲如同说故事一般平易,成功表达了作曲者本身对社会提出的多方探讨、政治的观点与人心灵深处的自省。

自1988年以同名专辑与其中单曲“Fast Car“进入歌坛并且一鸣惊人以来,崔西.查普曼(Tracy Chapman)就一直被视为创作型才女歌手。1964年出生于美国克里夫兰,1986年拿到大学人类学学位后,继续在波士顿寻求发展。1988年的首张专辑(Tracy Chapman)不仅在英美两地都拿下排行冠军,在第31届葛莱美奖上崔西.查普曼抱走“年度新人”、“流行女歌手”、“最佳现代民谣专辑”三座大奖。、95年专辑《New Beginning》也持续展现作品的亲合力,分别缔造英国金榜冠军、全美流行专辑榜TOP 4的排行佳绩,历年5张专辑全球销售超过3400万张。从《Talkin' Bout A Revolution》、《Baby Can I Hold You》、《Crossroads》、《Bang Bang Bang》到96年荣获葛莱美奖最佳摇滚歌曲奖《Give Me One Reason》与深刻内省的《Telling Stories》,Tracy Chapman那种将叙事民谣与自我观点合而为一的唱作风格,树立了歌者用歌声抒发观点与情绪的绝佳典范,其对言论与情感表达的深刻影响力不下于Sting、Peter Gabriel等杰出歌手。 受邀参加Bob Dylan入行30年纪念演唱会、Lilith Fair音乐祭、Bob Marley致敬演唱会的Tracy Chapman于2002年发表专辑《Let It Rain》,在此张与制作人John Parish (Beck、P J Harvey、Eels)、鼓手Joey Waronker (R.E.M.、Smashing Pumpkins)、吉他手Joe Gore (Tom Waits)合作的作品里,Chapman独特的观点与情绪再次清晰表露。
