katy perry出生于加州圣巴巴拉.由于生活在一个基督徒家庭.因此Katy从小在教堂里唱歌.听着基督教音乐长大.
长大的katy疯狂着迷于Alanis Morissette和Freddie Mercury,但宗教音乐依然情有独钟.于是,当时年仅16岁的katy在2001年以Katy Hudson这个名字在Red Hill Records发行的一张基督徒唱片.之后,katy的曲风也慢慢倾向于流行音乐.
17岁时katy在Glen Ballard的指导下看是学习写歌[Glen Ballard,1995年制作Alanis Morissette的冠军歌曲Jagged Little Pill].几年后,葛莱美奖提名的音乐制作团队Matrix[曾与Avril Lavigne,Shakira和Korn有过的合作]计划录制他们自己的专辑,并邀请Perry成为团队两名主唱之一,但最终项目被搁置.
在2006年.Katy出了一首名为”Goodbye For Now”的歌.她当时谈论到了自己在演艺圈里挣扎的情形.,就像她以前出CD的低销量.
终于.她的歌被Virgin唱片公司的首席执行官(CEO) Jason Flom听到了.他觉得Katy有唱歌的潜质.
2007年katy签约Columbia,首支单曲<Ur So Gay>,以它恶作剧式的歌词渐渐在网络流行起来,伴随着音乐录像带的推出,Perry的歌迷也相应增长.虽年仅23岁, 但这位来自美国加利福尼亚州的漂亮摇滚女孩,已有多年自己写歌,弹吉他的经历,并且也是一个经验丰富的,善于讲故事的人。
英文歌词：
Artist：Katy Perry
Song：Thinking Of You
Comparisons are easily turned
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed
You said move on
Where do I go
I guess second best
Is all I will know
Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes
You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
Like a hard candy
With a surprise center
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
You said there's
Tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test
He kissed my lips
I taste your mouth
He pulled me in
I was disgusted with myself
Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into...
You're the best
And yes I do regret
How I could let myself
Let you go
Now the lesson's learned
I touched it I was burned
Oh I think you should know
Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Oh won't you walk through
And bust in the door
And take me away
Oh no more mistakes
Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay...
stay.... |
