阿拉尼斯·莫里赛特(Alains Morisse-tte)是90年代美国乐坛最抢眼、走红最快的一颗新星。她凭借95年推出的专辑《Jagged Little Pill》(破碎的小药丸)横扫全美的唱片店和校园,其热度只有玛当娜可比。此曲一举夺得第38届葛莱美4 项大奖:年度最佳专辑,最佳摇滚专辑,最佳摇滚歌曲,最佳摇滚歌手。这位出生于加拿大渥太华,年方二十一的女歌手的迅速崛起的确令人赞叹。1991年,1992年, 曾在加拿大出版过两张专辑 《Alains》(阿拉尼斯)和《Now Is The Time》(现在是时候了),可是没有得到热烈的回应。于是Alains来到了美国闯天下。她说“这样我就向成功迈出第一步。当时我对自己并没有很大的信心,现在看来这似乎并没有必要,是音乐赋予我全部,即使如今让我做一名四处飘泊的流浪艺人,我也愿意。”来到美国洛杉矶之后不久就结识了曾为Michael Jackson和Wilson Phillips制作过颇为成功的专辑的流行音乐制作人Glen Ba-llard,在他的帮助下,她完成了《Jagged Little Pill》这张专辑的录制。Alanis Morissette的叙事体和声和MTV开创了女性摇滚的新时代,她的出现为处于低迷时期的美国流行乐坛注入了一股旺盛的生命力。 曲名:King Of Pain 歌手:Alanis Morrisette Theres a little black spot on the sun today Thats my soul up there its the same old thing as yesterday Thats my soul up there Theres a black hat Caught in a high tree top Thats my soul up there Theres a flag pole rag and the wind wont stop Thats my soul up there I have stood here before in the pouring rain With the world turning Circles running round my brain I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign But its my destiny to be the king of pain Theres a fossil thats trapped in a high Cliff wall Theres a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall Theres a blue whale beached by a springtides ebb Theres a butterfly trapped in a spiders web Theres a king on a throne with his eyes torn out Theres a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt Theres a rich man sleeping on a golden bed Theres a skeleton Choking on a Crust of bread Theres a red fox torn by a huntsmans pack Theres a black winged gull with a broken back Theres a little black spot on the sun today its the same old thing as yesterday I have stood here before in the pouring rain With the world turning Circles running round my brain I guess I always thought you Could end this reign But its my destiny to be the king of pain Ill always be king of pain
