【Billboard】Midnights乐评原文+翻译搬运

只看楼主收藏回复

前言:
【1】搬运的是Metacritic目前收录的乐评,因为各种原因可能大家不太好找到乐评的原文,这里给大家搬过来可以作为一些参考吧。
【2】因为本人精力有限,可能没有办法一时间cover所有的乐评,所以优先搬运一些可能国内大众还算了解的媒体的评论(比如滚石、卫报、纽时、婊叉(虽然还没出来)etc)
【3】翻译借助deepL+一些手动修订,质量不够专业还请见谅qwq

    原标题:Taylor Swift Lets Us Into Her Darkest Dreams On ‘Midnights’
    泰勒·斯威夫特在《午夜》中让我们进入了她最黑暗的梦境
    COULD YOU HAVE ever guessed what Taylor Swift’s Midnights would sound like? Since announcing the album in late August, Swift tried out a new rollout strategy: no single, no surprise drop 12 hours later. Instead, it’s been two months of Lynchian TikTok videos unveiling song names and lyric billboards to tide over her increasingly spiraling, clue-hungry fanbase.
    Midnights could have been anything. After the bubblegum dream-pop of Lover, Swift veered into the woods for the indie-folk-leaning pair Folklore and Evermore, both released in 2020. Then, she returned to her archives for her Fearless and Red re-records, expanding upon her second and fourth albums with a host of previously unreleased bonus tracks written during each respective era.
    你能猜到泰勒·斯威夫特的《午夜》听起来会怎么样吗?自从8月底宣布这张专辑以来,斯威夫特尝试了一种新的推出策略:没有单曲,没有12小时后的惊喜发布。取而代之的是两个月的大卫·林区式的TikTok视频,揭开了歌曲名称和歌词的告示牌,以渡过她日益螺旋式上升、渴望线索的粉丝群体。
    《午夜》本来可以是任何东西。在《情人》的泡泡糖梦幻流行音乐之后,斯威夫特转向森林,推出了独立民谣风格的《民俗》和《永恒》,这两张专辑都在2020年发行。然后,她回到她的故纸堆中,重新录制了《无畏》和《红色》,在她的第二张和第四张专辑的基础上,增加了许多以前未发布的bonus曲目,这些曲目都是在各自的时代写的。

      So what exactly is Midnights? In some respects, it’s a little bit of all of the above. It most notably picks up where the pure pop triptych of 1**9, Reputation, and Lover left off, a dazzling bath of synths complementing lyrics caught between a love story and a revenge plot.
      For her tenth release, Swift returned to the studio with her most prolific partner, Jack Antonoff, to talk about her favorite time of night (the middle of it). As she teased in the album announcement, Midnights covers “13 sleepless nights” from her life. In those midnight moments, Swift lets her intrusive thoughts win: her relationship, public image, nemeses, and inner child take over at different points to either ruin or redeem her. But Midnights is more sweet dreams than nightmares, her words acting like a protective shield around her life and most intimate relationships.
      那么,究竟什么是《午夜》?在某些方面,它是上述所有内容的一小部分。最值得注意的是,它延续了89、名誉和爱人的纯流行三部曲,令人眼花缭乱的合成器与夹杂着爱情故事和复仇情节的歌词相得益彰。
      在她的第十张专辑中,斯威夫特回到了她最多产的伙伴杰克·安东诺夫的工作室,谈论她最喜欢的夜晚(午夜)的时间。正如她在专辑公告中调侃的那样,《午夜》涵盖了她生活中的 "13个不眠之夜"。在那些午夜的时刻,斯威夫特让她侵入性的想法获胜:她的关系、公众形象、敌人和内心的孩子在不同的时刻接管了她,要么毁掉她,要么救赎她。但《午夜》更多的是甜美的梦境而不是噩梦,她的文字就像她的生活和最亲密的关系周围的保护罩。

        The only true disappointment on the album is the tease of Lana Del Rey’s feature on “Snow on the Beach” that’s more of a simple harmony than a true duet; the song itself is a hazy, wintery dream-pop cut in the vein of “Mirrorball” with a killer Janet Jackson reference. Hopefully this isn’t the last time these two talents cross musical paths.
        Midnights caps off with “Mastermind,” where Swift lays out a long-planned initiative to get her crush to fall in love with her (it doubles as a cheeky nod to her own “cryptic and Machiavellian” clue-leaving ways). Funny enough, it follows the tender love song “Sweet Nothing” she penned with said strategically-secured boyfriend, so job well done to Ms. Swift.
        As Swift has re-recorded her previous albums, it’s clear slipping back into her past self has unlocked something brilliant and fresh in her songwriting. Midnights may come as a surprise to the most newly turned fans of her music, those who only learned to like her songwriting when it came in the traditionally respectable Folklore/Evermore package. But like many of her purely “pop” releases in the past, Midnights leaves more and more to be uncovered beneath the purple-blue synth fog on the surface. And maybe that’s part of her scheme to begin with.
        专辑中唯一真正令人失望的是Lana Del Rey在 "Snow on the Beach "中的表演,这更像是一种简单的和声,而不是真正的二重唱;这首歌本身是一首朦胧的、冬季的梦幻流行曲,与 "Mirrorball"的风格相似,并有Janet Jackson的杀手锏。希望这不是这两位天才最后一次在音乐道路上相遇。
        Midnights以 "Mastermind"结束,斯威夫特在其中阐述了一个计划已久的举措,以使她的暗恋对象爱上她(这也是对厚脸皮地承认她自己 "神秘与马基雅弗利 "的透露线索的方式)。有趣的是,这首歌是在她与上述有战略意义的,与男友创作的温柔情歌《Sweet Nothing》之后创作的,所以斯威夫特女士的工作做得很好。
        由于斯威夫特重新录制了她以前的专辑,很明显,回到过去的自己在她的歌曲创作中释放了才华和心意。《午夜》可能会让刚刚成为她的歌迷的,那些在传统上值得尊敬的《民俗》/《永恒》才学会喜欢她的歌曲创作的人,感到惊讶。但就像她过去发行的许多纯粹的 "流行 "作品一样,《Midnights》在表面的紫蓝色合成器迷雾下留下了越来越多的东西有待发掘。也许这就是她开始时的计划的一部分
