200字的英语作文是我最喜欢的生活方式
全名:Avril Lavigne
出生地:Napanee, Ontario, 加拿大安大略湖
生日:9月27日
喜爱的颜色:黑色和红色
擅长:吉他
家庭:妈妈 - Judy 、哥哥 - Matthew 、妹妹 - Michelle
绝不平凡!这对Avril Lavigne而言已经算是温和的形容词了。她是一个庞克女子、一个爆发力十足的灵魂,一个狂野不羁的女孩。她是那种大约两岁左右,就能够以声音引起人们激赏的怪胎。她是那种没办法乖乖坐在课堂上,但是却充满了自信和决心,并且一个人跑到纽约和洛杉矶去磨练创作技巧的小镇女孩。她是那种完全靠着自己的力量,为了成功不计代价,思想前卫的十七岁叛逆青年。“我才刚出道,我要清楚地做自己,我写出自己的感受,从不在乎其他人怎么想,”Avril坦诚。“我要穿出本色,做出本色,唱出本色。”
很明显地,Avril生来就是为了这些疯狂的事。身为排行中间的老二,却“老是想成为注意力焦点”的小孩,她注定要离开加拿大安大略省那个人口只有五千人的小镇纳帕尼(Napanee)。“我记得很小的时候,我站在床上,就像它是舞台一样,我扯着喉咙大声地唱,想像有好几千个人围绕着我。”从卧室开始,不论何时何地她都可以唱,像是在教堂里唱圣歌,或是参加音乐节,然后在展览会和歌唱比赛上表演乡村音乐,直到她被Arista唱片所发崛。
在送出去给各唱片公司她唱歌表演的录影带之后,她得到Nettwerk唱片公司的回覆,并告知她希望跟她签下试唱歌手的合约,这是她期待已久能够让她离开这个小镇的大好机会,“后来他们也要我帮忙写词这点很吸引我,于是我搬到纽约,因为我要和他们共同创作一段时间。”
这个发展听起来很简单,不过命运的发展却让Avril从此改变。“有一天,一个Arista的人来录音室听到我录音,后来他马上就请”LA”瑞德(Arista的老板)来听,”她继续说:“我就为他唱了两首,结果他马上就要和我签约,我还没机会和其他唱片公司谈呢,不过这状况真的很少,我是说,有人花了10年才谈到合约,所以我真是非常非常非常幸运!”
让”LA”瑞德和所有员工感到兴奋的是Avril生气蓬勃的鲜明个性和纯真的魅力,以及嗓音酷似娜塔莉和莉莎洛普的甜美流行、和艾拉妮丝莫莉赛特和蔻特妮勒芙的狂放不羁。“虽然有人这么说我,也不会让我改变,”她说:“我不在乎别人说什么,我只要做我自己,我也不会去学别人,我不是坏孩子,我只想要每天高高兴兴的过日子还有诚实做自己就好,真的很希望,大家能看到这一点。”
十六岁时,她搬到曼哈顿着手进行她的首张专辑。Avril投入创作过程。“我热爱创作,”她解释道。“当我心情不好或是真的需要脱离那种情绪的时候,我会拿起吉他。有时候我觉得我的吉他就是我的治疗师。”
尽管在纽约的管制时期中,Avril实际上是住在录音室里,但是她的努力一开始并没有获得回报。“我开始和这些才华洋溢的人们工作,但我就是没有那种感觉;那些歌曲并不能代表我,”她承认。“接着他们开始提到要找人写歌给我唱,但是我得自己动笔才行。我得做我自己的音乐。那时候压力真的好大,但是我从来没想过要放弃。”相反地,她飞到西岸去了。洛杉矶给了她所需要的崭新开始。
就是在那儿她遇到了制作人兼创作者克里夫麦格尼斯(Clif Magness),“我就像是,‘耶!我找到我要的人了!’”她燃起了热情。‘我们实在太合了,因为他只管让我当头头,他真的了解我,而且让我做自己的事。’在麦格尼斯以及后来加入的制作小组“母体”(The Matrix)的掌舵下,为《Let Go》所写的歌曲开始陆续出炉。很快地,Avril也与曾经捧红莎拉克劳克兰(Sarah McLachlan)、蒂朵(Dido)、“酷玩乐团”(Coldplay)以及“总数41合唱团”(Sum 41)的“网路经纪公司”(Nettwerk Management)搭上了线。
对于唱片的成果,Avril非常兴奋。“在过去的一年里,我真的蜕变成一个创作者了。〈Complicated〉并不是特别描写某一个人。基本上它是一首关于生活、伪装的人们和人际关系的歌曲。”至于她最爱的歌曲之一,“Losing Grip”,她说,“它讲的就是我的某一个前男友,他在情感上并没有满足我的需求。”Avril笑着说,“但现在都无所谓了,至少我因此而写出了一首好歌。”
如今她的专辑已经完工了,Avirl等不及要将它公诸于世。她开玩笑说,和那些摇滚小子们所组成的庞克乐团四处巡回演出,与她的童年也没什麽两样,“我一直都是个男人婆,我想我现在还是。我秋冬的时候打曲棍球,夏天的时候打棒球。我喜欢和男生一起玩。”
但是Avril的音乐却足以同时感动女孩与男孩,以及一些富于冒险精神的成人,而她也正尽力地朝此方向努力。“我等不及要出场了。我想要摇撼这个世界!我要人们知道我的音乐是真实而且诚恳的,是发自内心的。我只是想忠于自己。”
在她的首张专辑《Let Go》当中,Avril的确是这么做了。她的唱腔炫耀似的活力四射,她的嗓音一如水晶般清澈,而她的歌词更是流露出纯粹的女性风格。“Anything But Ordinary”是一首赞扬个体独特性的颂歌;吉他奔驰的首支单曲“Complicated”,是首正中爱情骗子要害的简洁歌曲;沾染了弦乐色彩的 “I’m With You”反映了Avril较为温和的一面;“Losing Grip”和“Unwanted”这些歌曲,勇敢地面对了拒绝与背叛这些主题所需要的沈重与悲哀;而接下来的“My World”与具有暗喻意味的“Mobile”,则是完美的展现了Avril的生活经验。“我有了这个让人肃然起敬的机会去实现我的梦想。我跑遍了各个地方,飞到这儿、飞到那儿,每天遭遇不同的事物,”她解释道。“这就是我的生活方式,但是我不愿意去过正常的生活,不然我会觉得很无聊。”
Avril Ramona Lavigne was born in Napanee, Ontario, to parents Judy and John on September 27th, 1984. She was the middle child. She has a brother names Matthew whos 19 years old and a younger sister Michelle, 14. But she was always the feisty one and spent most of her school years getting into trubble. Even as a teen at Napanee District High School, despite being one of the smallest in her class (51), she was always getting into scrapes. "I got into lots of fights," she admits. "If someone was picking on one of my friends, Id go bithc them out. I wasnt a fighter, but I dont take any crap. Avrils strong character meant shewasnt always popular with her classmates. "The funny thing is," she smiles "people used to be intimidated by me. I dont know why. Its weird - the group you hang out with and the clothes you wear can scare people. My teachers hated me because I never did my work and never paid attention in class." But itwasnt just Avrils teachers who were angry with her, trouble at school made her parents mad, which meant she was always grounded. "I was rebellious towards my parents, but were cool now," Avril reveals. "I was always in trouble. I was never allowed to do anything after school so Id go to my room and write." And thats where Avrils musicwas born, being grounded gave her the time (and inspiration) to write her first album, Let Go.
Avril had been into music since the age of 2, performing in localmusicals, village fairs and, thanks to devout Christian family, at church. Until theage of 12 shed just been a singer, but she decided she wanted more. So she taught herself to play guitar, andfound a new way of making her parents proud, too. "I taught myself on my dads guitar," she says. "I started writing lines here and there and they grew into songs. I did it on my own, but my parents supported me," she smiles.
It wasnt long before Avril had her first taste of fame. At the age of 14, singing contest in Canadas capital, Ottawa. She won and appeared on stage as part of her prize (alongside Shania Twain in front of 10.000 people.) It was then that she knew that she could do it, she knew she had something special, so she started to chase her dream. Determinded to be a star, Avril sent a home video of herself singing karaoke to Peter Zizzo, an American songwriter/producer. He was so impressed he invited the ambitious 16 year old on a songwriting trip to New York. Everyone loved her and she was immediately signed to Arista Records, kome of Pink and Usher. Avrils dream was coming true, so she dropped out of school and moved to New York to work on her debut album. But living the dream was scarier than tough- kid Avril had thought. "The city is nuts. It was crazy learning subway on my way to the studio every day," she says, "But I was glad to be doing something productive." After a year working hard Avril had finished her first album, Let Go. "My lyrics are honest and I write about whatever happens to me," she says. "my song Losing Grip means a lot to me, its about my ex-boyfriend. We werent meeting on a emotional level and he wasnt giving me what I needed. I can still play the same songs and get mad and get my anger out. Its therapeutic and I hope I can help others in a similar situation." But it wasnt all plain- rocking. Avrilsfeisty self-belief caused problems, too. "I worked with a ton of people, and fought with most of them," she explains. "Id go on writing trips, meets lots of musicians and write one song and be like, Screw this. Im not working with that person. Sometimes, just because of my age, they didnt want to hear what I had to say. I probably just gave them attitude if they werent listening. Im a little fighter and I stand up for what I believe."
Avril also ran into trouble because she refused to be manufactured by the record company. As shed said all along, she just wanted to be herself. So she refused to do what she told to say, or even wear. "Im not a ****ing product, Im a human. There are times when I go to photoshoots and there are racks of clothes and Imlike No Im not wearing any of that," Avril says. "People try to get me to wear high-heeled shoes and cute little shirts and Im like No! Its tempting, girls like to look pretty, but Im not like that. Its really important that, when Im on camera I dress and act the way I normally would. I just want to be myself. I dont want to act like someone Im not.I want the world to know who I really am. Im sick of people being fake, and two-faced."
The great thing is, despite her success, fame hasnt changed Avril at all. "I just think that the way people treat me sometimes is just, like, weird". "Its like they think Im made up of plastic or something. I was walking down the hall one time, and this guy was yelling Move out ofmy way,at everyoneso I could walk through. I was like, ****ing shut up! I dont deserve to be treated any more special than other people." So, forget Jenny from the block, this is one down-to-earth girl wholl still be keeping it real when shes on her 10th album. And Avrils determinded to stick around for a long time.
