保罗·麦卡特尼赞扬了碧昂斯对《黑鸟》的翻唱，说它“强化了”这首歌所传达的民权信息
Beyoncé's new cover of the Beatles' "Blackbird" has a massive admirer: Sir Paul McCartney himself.
碧昂斯新翻唱的披头士歌曲《黑鸟》有一大群崇拜者:保罗·麦卡特尼爵士本人。
The former Beatle is sharing his enthusiasm for the Cowboy Carter rendition of the song, which he originally wrote in 1968. "I am so happy with @beyonce's version of my song 'Blackbird,'" McCartney wrote Thursday on Instagram. "I think she does a magnificent version of it and it reinforces the civil rights message that inspired me to write the song in the first place. I think Beyoncé has done a fab version and would urge anyone who has not heard it yet to check it out. You are going to love it!"
这位前披头士成员分享了他对牛仔卡特演绎这首歌的热情，这首歌最初是他在1968年创作的。麦卡特尼周四在Instagram上写道:“我很高兴@碧昂斯演唱了我的歌曲《黑鸟》。”“我认为她做了一个很棒的版本，它强化了民权信息，这是我最初创作这首歌的灵感。我认为碧昂斯已经做了一个很棒的版本，我强烈建议那些还没有听过的人去看看。你会喜欢的!”
McCartney went on to say that Beyoncé called him to discuss the song. "I spoke to her on FaceTime and she thanked me for writing it and letting her do it," he wrote. "I told her the pleasure was all mine and I thought she had done a killer version of the song. When I saw the footage on the television in the early 60s of the black girls being turned away from school, I found it shocking and I can't believe that still in these days there are places where this kind of thing is happening right now. Anything my song and Beyoncé's fabulous version can do to ease racial tension would be a great thing and makes me very proud."
麦卡特尼接着说，碧昂斯打电话给他讨论这首歌。他写道:“我在FaceTime上和她聊了聊，她感谢我写了这篇文章，让她这么做。”“我告诉她这是我的荣幸，我认为她已经完成了这首歌的杀手版本。上世纪60年代初，当我在电视上看到黑人女孩被学校拒之门外的镜头时，我感到震惊，我无法相信这些日子里，这种事情仍然在发生。如果我的歌和碧昂斯的精彩版本能够缓解种族紧张关系，那将是一件伟大的事情，让我感到非常自豪。”
McCartney has repeatedly cited the American civil rights movement as a primary inspiration for the song. "I was sitting around with my acoustic guitar, and I'd heard about the civil rights troubles that were happening in the '60s in Alabama, Mississippi, Little Rock in particular," McCartney told GQ in 2018 . "So that was in my mind, and I just thought, 'It would be really good if I could write something that if it ever reached any of the people going through those problems, it might give them a little bit of hope. So I wrote 'Blackbird.' In England, a bird is a girl, so I was thinking of a Black girl going through this, now is your time to arise, set yourself free, take these broken wings."
麦卡特尼多次提到美国民权运动是这首歌的主要灵感来源。麦卡特尼在2018年接受《GQ》采访时表示:“当时我拿着原声吉他坐在那里，听说了60年代发生在阿拉巴马州、密西西比州、尤其是小石城的民权问题。”“所以这就是我的想法，我只是想，‘如果我能写一些东西，如果它能到达任何正在经历这些问题的人那里，那就太好了，这可能会给他们一点希望。所以我写了《黑鸟》。在英国，鸟就是女孩，所以我想到了一个黑人女孩正在经历这一切，现在是你站起来的时候了，释放你自己，拿着这折断的翅膀。”
Beyoncé's version of the song, titled "Blackbiird," also utilizes McCartney's original acoustic guitar track from the Beatles' self-titled album (a.k.a. The White Album), and features a number of additional Black artists, including Brittney Spencer, Reyna Roberts, Tanner Adell, and Tiera Kennedy.
碧昂斯的版本名为“黑鸟”，也使用了麦卡特尼在披头士同名专辑(又名“白色专辑”)中的原声吉他曲目，并加入了其他一些黑人艺术家，包括布兰妮·斯宾塞、雷纳·罗伯茨、坦纳·阿德尔和蒂拉·肯尼迪。
It's one of numerous Cowboy Carter tracks that pays homage to seminal figures in country, rock, soul, and pop history: "American Requiem" credits Stephen Stills of Buffalo Springfield as a writer (presumably due to its similarity to "For What It's Worth"), "Ya Ya" features a sample of Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" and an interpolation of the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations," and of course "Jolene" is a reworking of Dolly Parton's classic song of the same name. Elsewhere, Stevie Wonder plays harmonica on a track, and Nile Rodgers plays guitar. The album's interludes also feature snippets of songs by Chuck Berry, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Son House, and Roy Hamilton, as well as spoken-word segments from Linda Martell, Willie Nelson, and Parton.
这是牛仔卡特众多向乡村、摇滚、灵魂和流行历史上的重要人物致敬的曲目之一:“美国安魂曲”的作者是布法罗斯普林菲尔德的斯蒂芬·斯蒂尔斯(大概是因为它与“For What It's Worth”相似)，“Ya Ya”的特点是南希·辛纳特拉的“这些靴子是为散步而做的”和“海滩男孩”的“Good Vibrations”，当然“Jolene”是对多莉·帕顿的同名经典歌曲的重新制作。在其他地方，史蒂夫·汪达在一个轨道上吹口琴，尼罗·罗杰斯弹吉他。这张专辑的插曲还包括Chuck Berry, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Son House和Roy Hamilton的歌曲片段，以及Linda Martell, Willie Nelson和Parton的口语片段。
