Z%#e* O0 gd[muR ~ Kelly Clarkson真是目前世界上最幸运的人,第一届American Idol(美国偶像)选秀节目优胜者,首支单曲便成为当年度美国单曲销售冠军,首张专辑也在发行首周空降Billboard冠军,发行三周后达金唱片销量,这一位由几百万美国人从一万名参赛者中投票选出的超级巨星,在获得比其它人更顺利的起步之后,正努力的要破解选秀节目明星昙花一现的魔咒,朝真正的超级巨星之路迈进。来自德州、仅有20岁的Kelly Clarkson,在连续十周的电视节目上,以她强劲浑厚、极具爆发力的歌声,征服了电视机前的观众,她嘹亮会转折的高音,在节目中成功的诠释了Aretha Franklin的“Natural Woman”与Mariah Carey的“Without You”,奠定了胜利之路。
F,YPIl X8}r= K~ 《Thankful》这张专辑便让Kelly的高音极致发挥。专辑制作群为Kelly打造了一个完全不同于时下流行的专辑,没有尖着喉咙以气声演唱hip-hop舞曲,也没有穿着小可爱透肚脐穿鼻环展现性感,她打扮的素净端庄,演唱着挑动情绪的成人抒情歌曲,并且用层层迭迭的合音与配乐来营造气势,令人想起当年Mariah Carey与Whitney Houston令全世界着迷的动人情歌,可以说它复古,但在2003年的流行乐坛上倒也是一种创新,Kelly Clarkson丢出了一张属于她自己独特风格优秀成绩单。首支单曲“Miss Independent”,有Christina Aguilrea参与创作,是专辑中较不一样的一首歌曲,歌曲一开始,便非常有Christina性感挑逗的热情氛围。“You Thought Wrong ”与“Thankful”是传统快版R&B舞曲,除了Kelly展现高超的转音之外,American Idol的另一位参赛者Tamyra Gray并在“You Thought Wrong”中一同飙歌。
l(Y32]Z \]Y<d “SomeKind Of Miracle”开头的哼唱,以及拉长时的抖音唱法,让人无法不联想起Whitney Houston。开场曲“The Trouble With Love Is”的键盘与鼓,是典型的当代成人情歌;而“Low”的吉他伴奏,则是Faith Hill一般受人喜爱的乡村流行。
fD%/]`y :M6|V_Yp 另外专辑中也收录了首支单曲“A Moment Like This”新版,将原本的小品情歌,提供了更多的空间让Kelly的声音挥洒。
/@"mQx~[q 如果你怀念中气十足、浓重饱满的情歌已久,Kelly Clarkson这张《Thankful》将会为你一解相思之苦,让你又有整个人沉浸于音乐之中的满足感。
