I know places (voice memo)
So over the years, a lot of people have asked me to sort of describe my song writing process from beginning to end.
所以，這些年來，許多人想讓我談一談我的歌曲的整個創作過程。
How long does it take, where do you write, what are the circumstances, do you start with music, do you start with lyrics,
花了多長時間，在哪裡寫，環境如何，從曲子開始，還是從歌詞開始，
and my answer is always that it happens differently every time,
我的回答是，每次都發生地不大一樣
and that's why I'm still so in love with song writing.
這也就是我如此鍾愛寫歌的原因
So what I've done here is shown you three different examples of the beginning stages of these songs and how they each started, different ways.
所以在這裡我所做的就是向你們展示三種不同的歌的初始狀態，以及它們是如何以不同的方式開始的
So I'll explain them to you and maybe that will help you understand kind of how I put songs together
我會向你們解釋一番，或許這會幫助你們理解一下我是怎麼完成一首歌的
I sent this voice memo to Ryan Tedder because I'd always wanted to work with him,
我把這段語音發給了瑞恩·泰德，因為我通常願意跟他一起工作
and finally we scheduled some studio time.
最後，我們會安排一些錄音棚裡的活兒
So I always wanna be prepared.
所以，我想一直都做好準備
I wanted to send him the idea that I was working on before we went into the studio
我會在我們進錄音棚之前就把我正在醞釀的想法發給他
just in case he wrote back and said 'I can't stand that, I wanna work on something else, think of something else '.
以免他回信說：“我弄不懂那些東西，我想做點別的，想點別的。 ”
So I just sat down with the piano, put my phone on top of the piano
所以我就在鋼琴邊坐下，把手機放到鋼琴頂上
and just kind of explained to him where I wanted to go with the song,
然後跟他解釋我打算怎麼寫這首歌
how I saw the melody sitting in
我如何看待它的旋律
]and we ended up recording the song the next day and itended up being on the record called 'I Know Places'.
[01:07.51我們最後會在第二天錄製這首歌，最後這首歌就被刻錄在了名叫《I Know Places》的唱片上
So this was the voice memo I sent to him the night before we ended up finishing the song
嗯這就是我在歌曲完成前夜發給他的語音記錄
'Okay so this is kind of this rough idea thing: “
好吧這差不多就是大致的想法：
Uh-uh-uh-oh, oh-oh-oh-i
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh -i
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-i-i-i
Na na na na waiting at the back door
哪哪哪哪等在後門
They're around and the vultures come around
他們就在附近，禿鷲飛過
And you know that they, they won't us
你知道他們不會
Say what they want 'bout, say what they want 'bout us
說他們不會，說他們不會在我們附近
And you come and sing, and
你唱道
I would not think about it but I'm not done
我就不會想這些，但我還沒完
Every know that a thing or two about it, thing or two about it, I
所有人都對此有所耳聞，有所耳聞
Cause they got the cages, they got the boxes
因為他們有籠子，他們有箱子
And guns
還有槍
They are the hunters we are the foxes
他們是獵人，我們是狐狸
And we run
所以我們逃
Baby, I know places we won't be found
寶貝，我知道一些他們找不到我們的地方
And they 'll be chasing their tails trying to track us down
他們會像狗咬尾巴一樣找我們
Cause I, I know places we can hide
因為我知道可以藏身的地方
I know places, I know places
我知道很多地方，我知道很多地方
Uh-uh-uh-i, uh-uh-uh-i, oh-oh-i, uh-uh-uh-i, no places
沒有地方
Or whatever I don't know, but that's basically just like a dark, really dark,
或者是些我不知道的東西，但大致就是一個陰暗，非常陰暗
lyric like bridge thing and it's about like
就像The Bridgeheads的“Thing”，大概就是說
everyone is trying to get into and ruin a love or whatever and it's like you just,
所有人都在拆散一對鴛鴦或是怎麼著的
whatever, you know, and the would just go to that major and just be like ooh .
不管怎麼著，你懂得，主要就是這樣就像“ohh～”這樣.我在寫一首怪異的歌
So I hope you like it, it wouldn't be a piano thing
所以我希望你喜歡它，這不是一首鋼琴伴奏的歌
It would be like Ohhh~, very like beat
它會像...很像打擊樂之類的。
