阳光小王子Jesse Mccartney — How Do You Sleep
 

How Do You Sleep

You better see right through that mother's eyes
Those freaks was¹ right when they said² you was dead³
The one mistake⁴ you made⁵ was in your head
Ah⁶, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?

You live with straights⁷ who tell you you was king⁸
Jump when your momma tell you anything
The only thing you done was yesterday
And since⁹ you're gone you're just another day
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep?

Ah, how do you sleep at night?
A pretty face may last a year or two
But pretty soon they'll see what you can do
The sound you make is muzak to my ears
You must have learned¹⁰ something in all those years
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?

 

简 介

这位从小就踏入戏剧界的歌手是美国家喻户晓的好演员，他为演戏所投注的心力从他两度入围艾美奖日间节目类最佳年轻男演员奖项就可窥知一二，但杰西更大的兴趣与抱负是在音乐方面，他在14岁时就加入了男孩团体Dream Street，该团的首张同名专辑还创下白金销售佳绩，虽然后来乐团解散，但杰西对音乐的热情丝毫没有减褪，他在继续维持戏剧演出之余，还是努力充实自己，在创作与演唱方面不断吸收更多不同的养分。

　　对各种类型音乐兼容并蓄的涉足让杰西的唱腔与创作含括了摇滚、灵魂、流行与舞曲等等不同风格，他的超龄成熟歌声却还是能够让每一个音符与每一句歌词透射出青春的气息，无怪乎花了两年时间精心琢磨的首张专辑“天使的心（Beautiful Soul）”一推出就大受欢迎，获得全美专辑榜第15名的好成绩。杰西的创作与演唱实力已藉他的首张专辑建立起口碑，他的巡回演唱会在全球各地票房处处告捷、歌曲在电视台及电台获得超高的点播率、在2005年青少年直选（Teen Choice¹¹ Awards）中连得三项大奖－“最佳跨界艺人”、“最佳男歌手”以及“最具突破男艺人”－，并且获得2005全美音乐奖“最佳新进艺人”奖项提名….等等睥睨同侪的成就在在证明了杰西正创立了一股属于自己的新风潮，这股风潮相对地也反映出杰西对音乐事业积极的态度和他天赋加上努力的双倍成效。
