Topics
Bunnie: 我很荣幸能采访到Melissa Etheridge,我想了解她从酒吧演出到获得格莱美奖的音乐历程,以及她与家人之间的关系。 Melissa Etheridge: 我从12岁就开始在酒吧演出,我的父亲一直陪伴在我身边,这对我的人生影响很大。他总是默默支持我的音乐梦想,从不批评我。我的母亲则比较难以相处,这对我造成了一些影响。18岁时,我离开家去追求自己的音乐梦想,没有选择继续上学。我曾在伯克利音乐学院学习过一段时间,但最终还是选择了在酒吧演出,因为这更符合我的个性。我的音乐风格融合了乡村、布鲁斯和灵魂乐等多种元素,我的嗓音也随着时间的推移而逐渐成熟。在洛杉矶,我主动创造机会在酒吧演出,最终被唱片公司签约。我的音乐事业发展迅速,并获得了多项格莱美奖提名和奖项。但我也经历过与家人关系紧张的时期,不得不与一些人断绝联系。我始终坚持演出,并重视歌曲创作的版权,这帮助我获得了长久的音乐事业。我从小就没有酗酒的问题,因为我看到了母亲酗酒的坏处,并且想成为像父亲一样不酗酒的人。21岁时,我独自一人开车前往洛杉矶,开始了我的音乐生涯。在洛杉矶的酒吧演出经历,让我有机会被唱片公司发掘,最终开启了我的音乐事业。
