Part 2
Dr Freeze Interview Re Next MJ Album - Part 2
29 Jan 2011
Quagmire: As I said earlier, "Break Of Dawn" contains very specific words.
It's very sensual and it's the first time he talks about making love. How did
he feel over this when you made the recordings, in what state of mind was he?
Were there any special wishes during these sessions?
就像我之前問到的 break of Dawn包含了非常特定的字眼 是他第一次在歌中談到做愛
他當時錄音時對這個的感想? 有甚麼特殊的要求嗎?
Dr. Freeze: No, he just told me he loved the song. I do not give him orders,
he knew exactly what to do. He took control of the plane, I'm just busy
taking off.
沒有 他只告訴我他愛這首歌 我沒有給他任何指令 他就是知道要怎麼唱 他掌控一切
Q: Basically, he said: "Go we do what verse again, Ell ..." By the way, is
what you called Elliot?
所以基本上 他會說 我們再來唱一次吧 Ell....對了他是叫你Elliot嗎
F: No, he always called "Freeze"!
不他總是叫我Freeze
Q: And you, you immediately called by his first name?
那你也是馬上叫他的名字?
F: Absolutely! We were really close. In fact, to be precise, I called him by
his nickname "Mike" instead of Michael.
當然 我們很熟 其實我不是叫他Michael 我是叫他的暱稱Mike
Q: You mentioned video games earlier. Do you remember the video games you
play with him at that time?
你之前提到電動玩具 你記得有跟他玩過哪種?
F: In his house there were lots of video games. Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat
and also Flight Simulator. We spent a lot of time playing it.
他家裡有超多電動玩具 street Fighter, Mortal Kombat還有Flight Simulator 我們花
了一堆時間玩
Q: You were playing in the studio or you go to Neverland?
在錄音室還是夢幻莊園?
F: Yes, I went to Neverland, to relax and work. We worked a lot there. He had
a studio at the ranch. So it was working there and sometimes he would say:
"Come on, we paused Freeze! Go a little fun, go into the projection room, go
to an attraction or will you walk in the zoo!" Neverland was a bit like a
second home to me.
我去夢幻莊園休息也是工作 我們在那邊工作了很長的時間 他在那裏有個錄音室 所以工作
當中有時他就會說 我們停一下吧 去玩玩 然後我們就會去遊戲室 或是在動物園散步 夢幻
莊園對我來說是第二個家
Q: I did not know you worked at Neverland! It's interesting because we do not
have many details on the studio of Neverland. Was it a professional studio?
我不知道你在夢幻莊園中也工作過 我們不知道他在那裏也設了錄音室 是專業的設備的?
F: Yes, completely, it was a lot of professional equipment, Pro Tools, stuff
like that, you know?
對阿 有很多專業的儀器和工具
Q: Did he use it alone?
他可以自己操作那些?
F: Absolutely, Michael was unbeatable when we were talking about the studio.
當然 當講到錄音室方面的事情 沒人可以打敗麥可的
Q: Actually, we know he could not really play an instrument, so we always
wondered if he was able to record anything on his own without the help of an
engineer or producer.
事實上我們知道他樂器彈的不好 所以我們一直想知道如果沒有工程師和製作人幫忙 他是
否可以獨自錄製歌曲
F: He could do everything himself. You know, Michael was truly a "living
instrument". He could play some chords on a keyboard, he was doing pretty
good. He also knew programmed beats.
他自己可以完成所有的事情 基本上麥可就是個活樂器 他會彈琴 事實上彈的很好
他也知道怎樣編排節奏
Q: Getting back to "Break of Dawn", can you tell us why Michael Jackson does
not sing the chorus of this song?
回到Break of Dawn 可以告訴我們在副歌為什麼MJ不自己唱呢?
F: Well, because he liked my version of the chorus. He found it very
beautiful, and he wanted to leave everything as is. He liked my singing. He
would not spoil, he loved how I had saved. My trademark is to make the chorus
to every song that I produced ("Poison," "I Want to Sex You Up"). I've been
doing this forever, and Michael loved my singing on "Break of Dawn".
因為他喜歡我唱的版本 他覺得很美 他想要就這樣留在裡面 他喜歡我的歌唱
我的註冊商標就是每首我製作過的歌都有我的歌聲在副歌之中 而MJ喜歡我在裡面的歌聲
Q: Where does your inspiration come to us for the songs "Break Of Dawn",
"Blue Gangsta" and "A Place With No Name"? How does your creative process?
這三首歌的靈感? 你的創作模式?
F: "Break Of Dawn" is just a romantic ballad that I wrote one day. For "Blue
Gangsta" I wanted to make a new "Smooth Criminal". Something more modern and
rooted in the 2000s. It was the idea. "A Place With No Name" is itself a kind
of escape, a song where you just close your eyes to find you instantly into a
wonderful world. In fact, this song was inspired by "A Horse With No Name"
group America. The lyrics of this song are very deep. I wanted to refresh it,
make a version of the 2000s.
Break of Dawn就是一首浪漫芭樂歌 Blue Gagsta我想要做一個新版的smooth criminal
更現代一點 A place with no name比較像是一首歌你閉上眼後可以逃離到一個美麗的世界
這首歌是受到A horse wtih no name的啟發 歌詞意涵很深 我想要做個2000的版本
Q: Did you have obtained the rights to the band quickly? Did you ask
permission?
你馬上就從這個團得到許可?
F: Oh absolutely, the group America has loved the idea. They found this
"update" absolutely terrific. They were really excited about this project.
Compared to the extract leaked on the internet, many wonderful items were
added to the song by Michael. It's more dense, much denser. Believe me, when
you hear it, you take your foot!
當然 他們很喜歡這個點子 對於這個計畫很興奮 相比較網路上的版本 MJ幫這首歌加了
很多很棒的部分 更緊湊
Q: So you do not touch it, it will emerge as you had finalized with him?
所以你沒再改動過 發行的會是你和MJ最後的版本?
F: The song will be released the latest version on which we worked. It will
be drastically different from the extract (July 2009) and more enormous. In
fact, this song is very cinematic in its form. It would have been a perfect
song for a movie like Avatar because it shows us a wonderful world it
strange, where people are different, but happy. This song is like an escape
from everyday life is a song where one is literally transported.
這首歌發行時會是我們一起做的最後版本 會和你們在網路上聽到洩漏的版本大不同
事實上這首歌本身就很有戲劇性 是個很適合阿凡達這種電影這種美麗世界的歌 那裏的
人不同 但很快樂 這首歌就像是給每個人逃離每天同樣生活出口
Q: About "Blue Gangsta" remix was done by Tempamental as "No Friend Of Mine"
關於Blue Gangsta的混音 也是和Tempamental版本的No friend of Mine是一樣的嗎?
F: This is not the name of the song, it's just the chorus that contains these
few words. The real title is "Blue Gangsta". When I heard this remix, I could
not believe it. Many people called me because of that and I do not understand
what had happened. The concern is that I do not even know who released the
song! It remains a mystery. Why did they do that? Where did this rap song?
How were they taken? In fact, we knew nothing about this story, me or
Michael. We really do not understand where this leak came ...
這首歌的名字根本不是No friend of mine只是歌裡有唱到這段 這首歌的歌名是Blue
Gangsta 當我聽到他們那個混音版本時 我簡直不敢相信 好多人因這首歌打電話給我
但我完全不知道這是怎麼發生的 這到現在還是個謎 為什麼他們要這樣做 為什麼這變成
一首饒舌歌曲了 他們怎麼拿到這首歌的? 事實上我完全不知道發生什麼事了 我和MJ完全
不了解這首歌是怎麼洩漏出去的
Q: There are still a few weeks, nobody knew too what was the real origin of
this song, and how Michael Jackson had been involved in this project.
有好幾個禮拜 大家都不知道這首歌的起源 MJ是怎麼參與這個計畫的?
F: Yeah, I know it's crazy. The name of the song was not even good! [Dr.
Freeze humming the chorus of the song on the phone: "You is not no friend of
mine, could you put me through, I'm the blue gangsta nah."] Was just the
chorus. This highlights the ignorance of people who are causing the leaks on
the internet: they take the song and put it online without knowing its origin.
對阿 這真瘋狂 這首歌的歌名還完全不對 那段只是一小段歌詞 這顯示了把歌洩漏出去的
人有多無知 他們就拿到這首歌 放在網路上 卻完全不知道來源
Q: For fans, it did not really understand what it could be proposed. It was
weird. We suspected that something was amiss, but we did not know exactly
what ...
對歌迷來說 我們也很困惑
F: Yes, the song was not presented to the public as needed. A guy has just
stolen the song, added a rap, and swung on the net. I was not even credited,
any more than Michael! She just landed here without any logical explanation
...
是阿 這首歌不應該這樣被公開的 有人就這樣偷了這首歌 加了饒舌的部分 丟上網
我甚至沒有被提到 她就這樣完全沒有解釋的被公開了
Q: Have you done other songs with Michael Jackson, other than these three?
你和MJ在這三首外有合作其他歌曲?
F: We did some other songs, I do not think we've finalized anything. I'm not
sure I can tell you much more.
有一些其他的 但我想都沒有完成 我不確定我能不能講更多
Q: Overall, how did you write songs for Michael?
概括來講 你怎麼為MJ寫歌
F: Oh, about thirty, and I had to save five or six can be with him.
我大概有三十首 其中五六首是留給MJ的
Q: And you have these songs in your possession today?
這些歌你還保留他們嗎
F: Most of his novel are in the coffers now. We have no control over. They
keep everything in the chests.
大部分他的歌都被鎖在保險櫃了 我們沒有控制權 他們把所有東西都鎖起來了
Q: So the estate (the Estate) who cares?
所以在遺產公司手中
F: Yes, absolutely. John McClain is responsible for it.
是阿 John McClain掌控他們
Q: It's the boss!
他才是老闆
F: Yes, boss!
對
Q: Were you able to hear new songs?
你能夠聽到其他新歌嗎
F: Yes, I could listen to most of them. But I can not say anything, sorry.
I'm not allowed to disclose anything.
有 我聽過大部分的 但是很抱歉我不能說
Q: We can play a little game instead. I give you the names of songs, and you
tell me whether or not you've heard. Have you heard "Escape"?
我們可以玩個遊戲 我給你歌名 你告訴我你有沒有聽過 你聽過escape?
F: "Escape"? That tells me nothing. 沒有
Q: "Fear," "Face", it tells you something?
F: No, nothing at all 沒有
Q: Have you listened to "Do You Know Where Your Children Are?
F: I heard the studios. 聽過錄音室版的
Q: "Crack Kills"?
F: Never heard of it.沒有
Q: The "gloved One"?
F: No. 沒有
Q: Actually, it would be easier if you give us some names ... Could you give
us the name of an unreleased track that you particularly marked and talk a
little?
你如果能給我們一些沒發行你能夠大概講一點的歌就太好了
F: There's a song we made together, but I do not know if he has completed his
vocal parts. It's called "Rise Above It All". It's a song I wrote and on
which we worked.
有一首歌是我們一起寫的 但我不確定他到底錄完他那部分的歌聲了沒 叫做rise above it
all 這是一首我寫個 我們一起工作過的歌
Q: What was she talking about?
歌在講什麼的?
F: It's an upbeat song. If you feel bad, what's going wrong in the world, be
positive and try to be as happy as possible, leaving aside all the negative
things. Overcome negativity room, go beyond the woes of the world, all wars,
the starving children and all the bad things. Assemble yourselves, hold your
hand, raise your hands to heaven and pass it all. It's a little theme song. I
can not say whether he had recorded the song, but in any case, we worked on
it. There are other songs on which they collaborated. Most of these songs are
mid-tempo, but I can not say anything more.
這是一首勵志歌 如果你對於世界上的事情感到不滿 要一直保持正面和快樂 拋下負面思想
克服所有不好的事情 戰爭 飢餓的兒童等 我不能確定他是否錄了這首 但是我們當時有一
起合作(內容好像Hold my hand) 也有很多他和別人的合作 大部分的歌是中版 但我不能說
更多了

In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort.
In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream.
In a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.
