A special note about "Englishman in New York“:
Sting is "my guy":D, or to put it another way,his music is "my cup of tea" ,especially the song "Englishman in New York“.It is one of Sting's signature songs,and also one of my top favorite songs. The "Englishman in New York" is the right song for the Chinese Woman in New York who loves walking down the 5th Avenue in New York with this song single-cycling on the iPod/iPhone!!! ^~^ The feeling is awesome!!! ^~^ An Interesting modification of the lyrics would fit me perfectly: "I don't drink coffee,I take tea,my dear... I am an Englishman in New York"--->:"I drink coffee, and I take tea,my dear... I am a Chinese woman in New York"! LOL I love drinking coffee with cheesecake in New York City!!! ^-^
Story behind the song: The "Englishman" in question is the famous eccentric and gay icon Quentin Crisp.Sting wrote the song not long after Crisp moved from London to an apartment in the Bowery in Manhattan. Crisp had remarked jokingly to the musician "that he looked forward to receiving his naturalization papers so that he could commit a crime and not be deported."”

Englishman in New York
这是Sting最经典最著名歌曲之一, 融合了许多曲风元素:流行、摇滚、爵士,歌曲背后也有许多英美文化背景因素。歌曲出自1987年推出的他的个人第二张专辑《Nothing Like the Sun》(无与伦比的太阳),这首歌也拍了一个MV《一个英国人在纽约》,MV里包涵了许多这首歌相关的音乐和文化背景元素,这首歌版本附的MV是大陆卡拉OK那种低级MV版本,不过点击下面这首歌的MV,你就可以看到另外单独发行的那个最经典的MV。 《Nothing Like the Sun》这张专辑堪称是Sting个人音乐生涯中最完美的一张专辑,其风格杂糅,流行,摇滚,爵士,雷鬼,抒情,舞曲无所不有;伴奏乐手更是众星云集,Andy Summers, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Hiram Bullock,Branford Marsalis,Manu Katché,个个鼎鼎大名。专辑中一共有5首歌曲作为单曲发行,其中就包括这首《Englishman In New York》,曲中那韵味十足的萨克斯演奏就是来自爵士乐大师Branford Marsalis,而动感的打击乐则受益于法国鼓手音乐人Manu Katché,在这首曲子的MV(随后一首)中都可以看到他们的亮相。 |

Englishman in New York
Sting是英国著名歌星,是一名出色的英式蓝调、摇滚乐手,被称为摇滚诗人。无论作为Police乐队主唱还是后来的个人发展生涯,他都留下了很多经典歌曲。他几乎是英国乐坛长青树,他的音乐有着诗人的特色。他有很多非常流行的歌曲,其中最为人国人所知的就是《Shape of My Heart》,是电影《这个杀手不太冷》的插曲。 Sting的歌声并不华丽,他靠的是音乐本身,已经自身对音乐的独特理解获胜的。Sting被人称为“摇滚诗人”,歌曲极具个性,词曲均富含摇滚的革命精神,《Englishman In New York》中有句歌词“Be yourself,not matter what they say”或许就是对他的风格诠释。这句歌词也和英国一名著名的艺术家Quentin Crisp的同志人生哲理有关,Sting的这首歌中的Englishman就是指Quentin Crisp。 |

Englishman in New York
2009年电影《英国人在纽约》与Sting歌曲 电影《Englishman in New York》与Sting的歌曲同名,这部电影展现了同志圈的现状,也涉及到一些敏感话题。但电影最成功之处是再塑了一位睿智的艺术家Quentin Crisp,一位为坚守自我、随梦流浪的老顽童。他能穿过艳丽外表直达深邃内心,拥有像星空一样浩瀚的人生体验。这部电影在2009年柏林国际电影节上获特别泰迪熊奖,由曾获托尼奖的丹尼斯·欧哈拉等演员主演。 |
