　　音樂小天后泰勒斯威夫特的完美蛻變

　　When Taylor Swift first came to public notice she was a 17-year-old newcomer who loved singing to her own guitar. She was far more enthusiastic than accomplished, but had an undeniable spark.

　　泰勒斯威夫特第一次走進(jìn)觀眾的視野時(shí)，還只是個(gè)喜歡抱著吉他自彈自唱的17歲新人。盡管那時(shí)從她身上看到更多的是對音樂的狂熱而非嫻熟的技巧，但不可否認(rèn)她迸發(fā)著迷人的火花。

　　Four years later, the spark is more like pyrotechnics, and Swift has become a multi-awards winner, with the biggest selling albums for the past year.

　　四年后，火花變成了煙火，斯威夫特憑借去年推出的最高銷量專輯成為諸多獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)的得主。

　　For her consummate career, she was named Billboard magazine's Woman of the Year last week. The 21-year-old singer-songwriter is the youngest artist to receive the honor. It comes on the heels of several 20xx Billboard Music Awards, among them Top Country Album for the five-time platinum selling Speak Now, her third album that was released last October.

　　基于其圓滿的音樂事業(yè)，上周她被《公告牌》雜志評選為"20xx年度女性"。這位現(xiàn)年21歲的創(chuàng)作歌手是該獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)最年輕的獲得者。此前不久她剛剛在20xx公告牌音樂頒獎(jiǎng)禮獲得數(shù)項(xiàng)大獎(jiǎng)，其中包括憑借去年十月發(fā)行的第三張專輯《現(xiàn)在說出來》所取得的五白金銷量而成功斬獲的最佳鄉(xiāng)村專輯獎(jiǎng)。

　　"Taylor has shown the power of good songwriting with music that has transcended genres," Bill Werde, Billboard's editorial director, said. "And at the young age of 21, Taylor has already made a major impact on music and has been an incredible role model for aspiring artists and young women everywhere."

　　"泰勒在作曲上展現(xiàn)出過人的才華，其音樂已經(jīng)超越了現(xiàn)有流派。"《公告牌》雜志編務(wù)總監(jiān)比爾沃德贊揚(yáng)道。"盡管只有21歲，泰勒已經(jīng)震撼了整個(gè)樂壇，不可思議地成為了激勵(lì)藝人以及各地年輕女性的楷模。"

　　Swift is used to breaking chart records and winning honors since her career started. Her self-titled debut album, which was released in 20xx, holds the honor of longest-running album on the Billboard 200 since 20xx.

　　自踏入歌壇后，打破排行榜紀(jì)錄、斬獲各大獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)這些事情對于斯威夫特來說早習(xí)以為常。她于20xx年發(fā)行的首張同名專輯成為自20xx年以來在公告牌排行榜前200名停留時(shí)間最長的專輯。

　　She followed that up in 20xx with Fearless, a critically acclaimed album that established her as a skilled songwriter with several hits, including Love Story, You Belong With Me and White Horse.

　　她趁熱打鐵于20xx年推出備受贊譽(yù)的專輯《無懼的愛》，幾首熱門單曲如《愛的故事》，《你屬于我》和《白馬》奠定了她作為嫻熟的創(chuàng)作型歌手的地位。

　　Not surprisingly, the 6-time platinum Fearless is the most awarded album in country music history in the US and her overall worldwide sales now exceed 20 million albums and 40 million songs downloads. Swift has spent the past year on the Speak Now World Tour in support of her third album, and now she's getting ready to go further.

　　不出意料，她推出的六白金專輯《無謂的愛》成為美國鄉(xiāng)村音樂歷史上獲獎(jiǎng)最多的專輯，全球發(fā)行總量已超過2千萬張，歌曲下載量高達(dá)4千萬次。斯威夫特去年一直在進(jìn)行"現(xiàn)在就說出來"世界巡演，為第三張個(gè)人專輯造勢。而現(xiàn)在她已經(jīng)蓄勢待發(fā)了。

　　According to a recent interview with The New Yorker magazine, Swift has so far written about 10 songs for a 20xx album. She said the new album is about feelings of growing up and becoming an adult.

　　斯威夫特在最近一次接受《紐約客》雜志采訪時(shí)透露，她已經(jīng)為20xx年的新專輯創(chuàng)作了10首歌曲。她表示新專輯將訴說一些長大成人的感受。

　　"They're sad, if I'm being honest," Swift told The New Yorker. "They're about my heartbreaks and my moving on. But more importantly, they are about achieving contentment. You're not always going to be ridiculously happy as you grow up."

　　"如果我實(shí)話實(shí)話的話，這些歌曲都很悲傷。"斯威夫特告訴《紐約客》雜志記者。"它們講述著我的傷心和成長。但更為重要的是要懂得知足常樂。成長中你不會(huì)總是那么沒心沒肺地快樂。"
