謝謝u大提供的資訊，幫忙翻譯了一下MTV訪問編輯的部分 MOONWALK內容摘錄就不翻譯囉，MJJCN裡應該都找的到不過在MTV新聞摘錄書本部分下的新聞標題讓我很難過... "The way Elvis destroyed himself interests me, because I don't ever want to walk those grounds myself" "貓王的死讓我關注，因為我不想步上他的後塵" ------以下翻譯------ Michael Jackson's Editor Takes Us Inside The Reissued Bio 'Moonwalk' 'He wanted to set the record straight,' Shaye Areheart says of MJ's motivation for telling his story MJ的編輯談論再版的Moonwalk "他想要一直創造記錄"當Shaye Areheart說到MJ講述他故事的動機 In the months since Michael Jackson's death, most everyone connected to the King of Pop — as well as those that never met him but loved his music or hated who they thought he'd become — have had the chance to air their views about his life. On Tuesday, MJ himself will get a chance to weigh in as his ghostwritten memoir, "Moonwalk," is reissued. 自從幾個月前MJ過世之後，大多數的人們都會想到流行音樂之王，即使沒有見過MJ但不管他們是喜歡或討厭他的音樂，他的地位都是屹立不搖的，他們現在也有了機會去了解MJ的人生，這本代筆的Moonwalk在星期二會再版。 One of his original editors, Shaye Areheart, told MTV News that the Michael Jackson found within the book's pages is not the one we've come to hear so much about in the years after the molestation accusations and the months since his death from an overdose of surgical anesthetic in June. 書本最初的編輯之一Shaye Areheart告訴MTV說，因為過去幾年戀童案的關係和幾個月以來MJ死於麻醉劑的用藥過量於六月等的關係，使的人們對MJ的認知有誤，而Moonwalk裡面的MJ和我們所聽到的MJ是不一樣的。 "I didn't believe those stories," she said. "I thought it was untrue. I think you don't change that much. I knew Michael pretty well for those years. He was a fundamentally gentle, kind, decent person who revered children, who felt that children were angels on Earth. That's not the sort of person that would take advantage of a child. I never did believe those stories." "我不相信這些故事"她說到，我認為那些都是不真實的。一個人不會改變這麼多，這幾年來我非常了解MJ，他絕對是一個非常紳士、和善斯文而保有一顆赤子之心的人，他覺得孩子們是來到地球上的天使，這樣的人絕對不會去傷害孩子，我從來不相信那些故事。 During the four-year production process on "Moonwalk," Areheart would sit with Jackson in his Encino, California, home, asking the singer questions and recording his answers about his childhood and family, his early Motown experiences, the isolating effects of superstardom and the bizarre rumors that often enveloped him. 在過去編輯Moonwalk的四年時光中，Areheart是在MJ位於加州Encino的老家和他在一起問答並記錄有關於MJ的童年和家庭、他早期在摩城的經歷、以及成為巨星的孤獨和那些滑稽可笑進而困擾他的流言蜚語。 As the book neared completion in November 1987, Jackson was in Australia for the international leg of his Bad tour. Areheart traveled to Melbourne, and for the next two weeks, they sat in hotel rooms as she read aloud the story of his life. 在1987年11月的時候這本書近乎接近完成，而MJ正在澳洲做BAD的巡演。 Areheart飛到了墨爾本，而接下來的兩個禮拜她就和MJ坐在飯店房間裡並大聲的朗讀他的自傳。 "He loved to be read to," she said, adding that the idea of reading through the manuscript seemed like "the most boring idea he'd heard in his life." But weeks before the book was to be published, MJ hesitated, worried about all that he'd revealed, fearful that his effort to tell the truth about his life would only feed the tabloid fire. "他也喜歡被朗讀出來"她說到，她還強調MJ覺得透過手稿去讀他的人生是他聽過最無趣的想法之一。但就在書本即將被出版的幾個禮拜前，MJ猶豫了，他擔心他這樣努力坦白的表述他的人生會成為那些八卦小報們的話題。 "He really wanted to do this book," Areheart explained. "He wanted to set the record straight. He felt like there had been so many falsehoods. And then all of sudden, he felt like somebody who'd just been exposed and thought, 'Maybe I don't want to publish this book.' "他真的很想要出這本書" Areheart解釋到，他想要持續創造記錄，他感覺到周遭許多的謊言，而有這麼一瞬間他覺得他被揭漏了太多而產生了"或許我不應該出版這本書"的想法。 MJ eventually decided, though, that publication should move forward. "Moonwalk" hit bookshelves in 1988 and shot to the top of the New York Times best-seller list. The reissued version carries a new introduction from Motown head honcho Berry Gordy, as well as an in- depth afterword by Areheart. The pages are filled with color photos that Jackson himself selected, including behind-the-scenes looks at video shoots, old family photos and one of him in a red-and-gold kimono with a huge smile on his face. MJ終究還是決定出版了，即使發行時間應該更提早一些。Moonwalk在1988年在書店造成轟動並打進了當時紐約時報最暢銷的書籍排行榜。再版的版本有摩城老板Berry Gordy所寫的新序言，一樣都是由Areheart做最全面的校正編輯，內頁裡有MJ親自挑選的彩色照片，包括MV幕後製製作的照片、早期家庭的合照以及一張MJ大笑並穿著紅金相間的和服的照片。 Areheart found out about Jackson's death while she was at a book party. She'd spent time with MJ in the years since the publication of "Moonwalk," collaborating on a collection of poetry, short stories and paintings and making plans for future books. As news trickled out about the sordid details leading up to his death, Areheart said she was in shock. Areheart是在書籍的派對上得知MJ的死訊，他在Moonwalk出版之後都一直和MJ 有相處，並合作於整理他的詩集、小故事和圖畫以及計畫著關於未來幾本書。接連而來一些汙衊的細節關於MJ的死訊讓Areheart感到很震驚。 "When I knew Michael, he didn't even drink," she said. "The guy did nothing. He was healthy and very proud of his health. He was a vegetarian. He was constantly exercising and dancing and moving. So I just" — she paused — "I just can't speak to that." "我所知道的MJ他甚至是不喝酒的"她說到，"他沒做任何事，他是健康的而且對於自己的健康感到有自信，他是一個素食者，他一直都有持續的運動和跳舞，所以我...她猶豫了一下..."對於這些我實在說不上來"。 ------------------------------------------ 這位編輯Shaye Areheart就是當初被老大惡作劇拿蛇嚇她的小姐XD 有興趣的版友可以查閱6177我發表過的文章囉新版的Moonwalk就如之前知道的消息一樣，有摩城老板Berry Gordy新寫的序言，其他的部分就是照當年出版的內容原裝原味的去呈現，至於開頭和結尾有沒有重新組合我不清楚，因為初版的價錢在網路上已經吵到天價了Q_Q 無從比較起。當初提到09年再版的時間是10/22，時間上當然是被提前了，打鐵趁熱吧，加上在電影推出之際。看新聞發的時間是10/12，那應該是10/13(二)發行再版了，不過台灣的部分早早就拿到再版，這邊的再版指的應該是美國的發行時間? 看到Areheart之後還陸續的跟老大討論過即將要出版的書畫詩集等，真的覺得好感慨，希望我們能由之後的大絕書OPUS之中得到補償和慰藉。 -----Keep Michaeling---- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 112.104.40.179
