Britney Spears-...Baby One More Time


       二十年前(1998年)十月,Britney Spears推出她的處女作單曲“...Baby One More Time”, Billboard 雜誌本週慶祝這張經典單曲二十歲,回顧製作人Max Martin用三個音符鋼琴重覆段於這首歌之中,讓Britney Spears走向世界。

  1998年年底當一堆垃圾音樂充斥的1990年代流行音樂風格,有轉為R&B pop混合的味道,瑞典暢銷榜大師Max Martin在捧紅了Ace of Base Backstreet Boys Robyn之後,他注意到與Jive唱片公司新簽約的16歲女歌手Britney Spears

  Max Martin於是前往美國,Jive唱片公司的藝人與節目指導Steve Lunt介紹了Britney Spears給他,Lunt回憶:Max說他得到了適當人選錄他的新作
 
這首歌是“Hit Me Baby One More Time”,聽了試錄歌之後,Lunt感覺有瑞典風格(儘管Martin 說是R&B),主調是慢板流行音樂,最重要的是只有三個音符的鋼琴重覆段引出了這首歌,Lunt:很明顯地這首歌從開始就感覺與眾不同,這會是一首暢銷曲

  唱片推出時,歌名縮短成“...Baby One More Time”,因為怕Hit Me讓人聯想到暴力

  儘管“...Baby One More Time”的鋼琴重覆段幾乎很簡單的用一個降B調接二個C音符,但開始13秒就出現三次,聽完這首歌後這重複出現調子已深深地記在你的海裡,Lunt解釋:你一聽到這調子就知道這是什麼歌,我想不到還有什麼歌跟它一樣

  ...Baby One More Time”1998年十月一推出就在Billboard Hot 100排行榜就得到第17名,1999年元月爬升到排行榜冠軍,而且連續獲得二週冠軍

  Britney Spears 1981年出生於美國路易斯安那州Kentwood1992年原來在The Mickey Mouse Club電視節目演出 ,2004年起她的乖張行為常常成為娛樂雜誌和小報的頭條,儘管如此,Britney Spears 還有不少暢銷曲,他在歷年暢銷歌星排行榜得到過第131名,是21世紀前十年排行第25名的知名藝人

  Britney Spears  2004-2007年曾經嫁給他的伴舞Kevin Federline

BRITNEY SPEARS

Oh baby baby
Oh baby baby

Oh baby baby
How was I supposed to know
that somethin' wasn't right here
Oh baby baby

and now you're right out of site yeah

Show me

tell me baby
'cause I need to know now
oh because

My loneliness
Is killing me (and I)
I must confess
I still believe (still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
give me a sign---
hit me baby one more time.

Oh baby baby
a reason I breathe is you
boy you've got me blinded
Oh baby baby

that's not the way I planned it

Show me

tell me baby
'cause I need to know now
oh because

My loneliness
Is killing me (and I)
I must confess
I still believe (still believe)
when I'm not with you I lose my mind
give me a sign--
hit me baby one more time.

Oh baby baby

Is killing me now-
Don't you know I still believe
that you will be here
and give me a sign---
hit me baby one more time.

My loneliness
Is killing me (and I)
I must confess
I still believe (still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
give me a sign---
hit me baby one more time.

I must confess

(Is killing me)
Is killing me now--

when I'm not with you I lose my mind
and give me a sign---
hit me baby one more time.
