Part 2 Dr Freeze Interview Re Next MJ Album - Part 2 29 Jan 2011 Quagmire: As I said earlier, "Break Of Dawn" contains very specific words. It's very sensual and it's the first time he talks about making love. How did he feel over this when you made the recordings, in what state of mind was he? Were there any special wishes during these sessions? 就像我之前问到的 break of Dawn包含了非常特定的字眼 是他第一次在歌中谈到做爱 他当时录音时对这个的感想? 有甚麽特殊的要求吗? Dr. Freeze: No, he just told me he loved the song. I do not give him orders, he knew exactly what to do. He took control of the plane, I'm just busy taking off. 没有 他只告诉我他爱这首歌 我没有给他任何指令 他就是知道要怎麽唱 他掌控一切 Q: Basically, he said: "Go we do what verse again, Ell ..." By the way, is what you called Elliot? 所以基本上 他会说 我们再来唱一次吧 Ell....对了他是叫你Elliot吗 F: No, he always called "Freeze"! 不他总是叫我Freeze Q: And you, you immediately called by his first name? 那你也是马上叫他的名字? F: Absolutely! We were really close. In fact, to be precise, I called him by his nickname "Mike" instead of Michael. 当然 我们很熟 其实我不是叫他Michael 我是叫他的昵称Mike Q: You mentioned video games earlier. Do you remember the video games you play with him at that time? 你之前提到电动玩具 你记得有跟他玩过哪种? F: In his house there were lots of video games. Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and also Flight Simulator. We spent a lot of time playing it. 他家里有超多电动玩具 street Fighter, Mortal Kombat还有Flight Simulator 我们花 了一堆时间玩 Q: You were playing in the studio or you go to Neverland? 在录音室还是梦幻庄园? F: Yes, I went to Neverland, to relax and work. We worked a lot there. He had a studio at the ranch. So it was working there and sometimes he would say: "Come on, we paused Freeze! Go a little fun, go into the projection room, go to an attraction or will you walk in the zoo!" Neverland was a bit like a second home to me. 我去梦幻庄园休息也是工作 我们在那边工作了很长的时间 他在那里有个录音室 所以工作 当中有时他就会说 我们停一下吧 去玩玩 然後我们就会去游戏室 或是在动物园散步 梦幻 庄园对我来说是第二个家 Q: I did not know you worked at Neverland! It's interesting because we do not have many details on the studio of Neverland. Was it a professional studio? 我不知道你在梦幻庄园中也工作过 我们不知道他在那里也设了录音室 是专业的设备的? F: Yes, completely, it was a lot of professional equipment, Pro Tools, stuff like that, you know? 对阿 有很多专业的仪器和工具 Q: Did he use it alone? 他可以自己操作那些? F: Absolutely, Michael was unbeatable when we were talking about the studio. 当然 当讲到录音室方面的事情 没人可以打败麦可的 Q: Actually, we know he could not really play an instrument, so we always wondered if he was able to record anything on his own without the help of an engineer or producer. 事实上我们知道他乐器弹的不好 所以我们一直想知道如果没有工程师和制作人帮忙 他是 否可以独自录制歌曲 F: He could do everything himself. You know, Michael was truly a "living instrument". He could play some chords on a keyboard, he was doing pretty good. He also knew programmed beats. 他自己可以完成所有的事情 基本上麦可就是个活乐器 他会弹琴 事实上弹的很好 他也知道怎样编排节奏 Q: Getting back to "Break of Dawn", can you tell us why Michael Jackson does not sing the chorus of this song? 回到Break of Dawn 可以告诉我们在副歌为什麽MJ不自己唱呢? F: Well, because he liked my version of the chorus. He found it very beautiful, and he wanted to leave everything as is. He liked my singing. He would not spoil, he loved how I had saved. My trademark is to make the chorus to every song that I produced ("Poison," "I Want to Sex You Up"). I've been doing this forever, and Michael loved my singing on "Break of Dawn". 因为他喜欢我唱的版本 他觉得很美 他想要就这样留在里面 他喜欢我的歌唱 我的注册商标就是每首我制作过的歌都有我的歌声在副歌之中 而MJ喜欢我在里面的歌声 Q: Where does your inspiration come to us for the songs "Break Of Dawn", "Blue Gangsta" and "A Place With No Name"? How does your creative process? 这三首歌的灵感? 你的创作模式? F: "Break Of Dawn" is just a romantic ballad that I wrote one day. For "Blue Gangsta" I wanted to make a new "Smooth Criminal". Something more modern and rooted in the 2000s. It was the idea. "A Place With No Name" is itself a kind of escape, a song where you just close your eyes to find you instantly into a wonderful world. In fact, this song was inspired by "A Horse With No Name" group America. The lyrics of this song are very deep. I wanted to refresh it, make a version of the 2000s. Break of Dawn就是一首浪漫芭乐歌 Blue Gagsta我想要做一个新版的smooth criminal 更现代一点 A place with no name比较像是一首歌你闭上眼後可以逃离到一个美丽的世界 这首歌是受到A horse wtih no name的启发 歌词意涵很深 我想要做个2000的版本 Q: Did you have obtained the rights to the band quickly? Did you ask permission? 你马上就从这个团得到许可? F: Oh absolutely, the group America has loved the idea. They found this "update" absolutely terrific. They were really excited about this project. Compared to the extract leaked on the internet, many wonderful items were added to the song by Michael. It's more dense, much denser. Believe me, when you hear it, you take your foot! 当然 他们很喜欢这个点子 对於这个计画很兴奋 相比较网路上的版本 MJ帮这首歌加了 很多很棒的部分 更紧凑 Q: So you do not touch it, it will emerge as you had finalized with him? 所以你没再改动过 发行的会是你和MJ最後的版本? F: The song will be released the latest version on which we worked. It will be drastically different from the extract (July 2009) and more enormous. In fact, this song is very cinematic in its form. It would have been a perfect song for a movie like Avatar because it shows us a wonderful world it strange, where people are different, but happy. This song is like an escape from everyday life is a song where one is literally transported. 这首歌发行时会是我们一起做的最後版本 会和你们在网路上听到泄漏的版本大不同 事实上这首歌本身就很有戏剧性 是个很适合阿凡达这种电影这种美丽世界的歌 那里的 人不同 但很快乐 这首歌就像是给每个人逃离每天同样生活出口 Q: About "Blue Gangsta" remix was done by Tempamental as "No Friend Of Mine" 关於Blue Gangsta的混音 也是和Tempamental版本的No friend of Mine是一样的吗? F: This is not the name of the song, it's just the chorus that contains these few words. The real title is "Blue Gangsta". When I heard this remix, I could not believe it. Many people called me because of that and I do not understand what had happened. The concern is that I do not even know who released the song! It remains a mystery. Why did they do that? Where did this rap song? How were they taken? In fact, we knew nothing about this story, me or Michael. We really do not understand where this leak came ... 这首歌的名字根本不是No friend of mine只是歌里有唱到这段 这首歌的歌名是Blue Gangsta 当我听到他们那个混音版本时 我简直不敢相信 好多人因这首歌打电话给我 但我完全不知道这是怎麽发生的 这到现在还是个谜 为什麽他们要这样做 为什麽这变成 一首饶舌歌曲了 他们怎麽拿到这首歌的? 事实上我完全不知道发生什麽事了 我和MJ完全 不了解这首歌是怎麽泄漏出去的 Q: There are still a few weeks, nobody knew too what was the real origin of this song, and how Michael Jackson had been involved in this project. 有好几个礼拜 大家都不知道这首歌的起源 MJ是怎麽参与这个计画的? F: Yeah, I know it's crazy. The name of the song was not even good! [Dr. Freeze humming the chorus of the song on the phone: "You is not no friend of mine, could you put me through, I'm the blue gangsta nah."] Was just the chorus. This highlights the ignorance of people who are causing the leaks on the internet: they take the song and put it online without knowing its origin. 对阿 这真疯狂 这首歌的歌名还完全不对 那段只是一小段歌词 这显示了把歌泄漏出去的 人有多无知 他们就拿到这首歌 放在网路上 却完全不知道来源 Q: For fans, it did not really understand what it could be proposed. It was weird. We suspected that something was amiss, but we did not know exactly what ... 对歌迷来说 我们也很困惑 F: Yes, the song was not presented to the public as needed. A guy has just stolen the song, added a rap, and swung on the net. I was not even credited, any more than Michael! She just landed here without any logical explanation ... 是阿 这首歌不应该这样被公开的 有人就这样偷了这首歌 加了饶舌的部分 丢上网 我甚至没有被提到 她就这样完全没有解释的被公开了 Q: Have you done other songs with Michael Jackson, other than these three? 你和MJ在这三首外有合作其他歌曲? F: We did some other songs, I do not think we've finalized anything. I'm not sure I can tell you much more. 有一些其他的 但我想都没有完成 我不确定我能不能讲更多 Q: Overall, how did you write songs for Michael? 概括来讲 你怎麽为MJ写歌 F: Oh, about thirty, and I had to save five or six can be with him. 我大概有三十首 其中五六首是留给MJ的 Q: And you have these songs in your possession today? 这些歌你还保留他们吗 F: Most of his novel are in the coffers now. We have no control over. They keep everything in the chests. 大部分他的歌都被锁在保险柜了 我们没有控制权 他们把所有东西都锁起来了 Q: So the estate (the Estate) who cares? 所以在遗产公司手中 F: Yes, absolutely. John McClain is responsible for it. 是阿 John McClain掌控他们 Q: It's the boss! 他才是老板 F: Yes, boss! 对 Q: Were you able to hear new songs? 你能够听到其他新歌吗 F: Yes, I could listen to most of them. But I can not say anything, sorry. I'm not allowed to disclose anything. 有 我听过大部分的 但是很抱歉我不能说 Q: We can play a little game instead. I give you the names of songs, and you tell me whether or not you've heard. Have you heard "Escape"? 我们可以玩个游戏 我给你歌名 你告诉我你有没有听过 你听过escape? F: "Escape"? That tells me nothing. 没有 Q: "Fear," "Face", it tells you something? F: No, nothing at all 没有 Q: Have you listened to "Do You Know Where Your Children Are? F: I heard the studios. 听过录音室版的 Q: "Crack Kills"? F: Never heard of it.没有 Q: The "gloved One"? F: No. 没有 Q: Actually, it would be easier if you give us some names ... Could you give us the name of an unreleased track that you particularly marked and talk a little? 你如果能给我们一些没发行你能够大概讲一点的歌就太好了 F: There's a song we made together, but I do not know if he has completed his vocal parts. It's called "Rise Above It All". It's a song I wrote and on which we worked. 有一首歌是我们一起写的 但我不确定他到底录完他那部分的歌声了没 叫做rise above it all 这是一首我写个 我们一起工作过的歌 Q: What was she talking about? 歌在讲什麽的? F: It's an upbeat song. If you feel bad, what's going wrong in the world, be positive and try to be as happy as possible, leaving aside all the negative things. Overcome negativity room, go beyond the woes of the world, all wars, the starving children and all the bad things. Assemble yourselves, hold your hand, raise your hands to heaven and pass it all. It's a little theme song. I can not say whether he had recorded the song, but in any case, we worked on it. There are other songs on which they collaborated. Most of these songs are mid-tempo, but I can not say anything more. 这是一首励志歌 如果你对於世界上的事情感到不满 要一直保持正面和快乐 抛下负面思想 克服所有不好的事情 战争 饥饿的儿童等 我不能确定他是否录了这首 但是我们当时有一 起合作(内容好像Hold my hand) 也有很多他和别人的合作 大部分的歌是中版 但我不能说 更多了 -- In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. In a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe. ~~~~By Michael Jackson --
