保罗·弗雷德里克·西蒙(英語:Paul Frederic Simon,1941年10月13日),是美国一位流行音乐歌手唱作人結他手,音樂製作人;也是六十年代著名民謠音乐二人合唱團賽門與葛芬柯其中一員[1]

生平

1941年10月13日,賽門出生于美國新澤西州一个犹太人家庭[2][3][4]。他就讀小學的时候與亞特·葛芬柯成为好友(當時他們都是11歲),後來两人经常同台演出。在1957年,他们合作的歌曲《Hey, Schoolgirl》打入美国「流行音乐排行榜」第49位;這首歌以「湯姆與傑瑞」(英語:Tom and Jerry)的名義發布[5]

高中毕业之后,賽門进入紐約市立大學皇后學院就讀,主修英語,於1963年获得英國文学学士学位[6]。毕业後曾參加布魯克林法學院的課程,但他仍對摇滚乐充滿熱情。当时加芬克尔就读位於曼克頓哥伦比亚大学[7],距離紐約市不遠,两人时常合作音樂;雖然如此,西蒙較喜歡他在这段时间单独创作的歌曲。

成名之路

1964年初,哥伦比亚唱片为賽門和加芬克尔提供歌手合約,并简单地为他们题了个名字:「賽門與葛芬柯」(英語:Simon & Garfunkel),以取代之前的名稱「湯姆與傑瑞」(英語:Tom and Jerry)。2003年3月10日摇滚名人堂颁奖典礼賽門曾打趣地说:「这是两个家族名字同时出现在流行乐坛的第一次。」[8]

乐團的第一张專輯是《Wednesday Morning, 3 AM》,發布於1964年10月19日,初步不算成功,但其中的歌曲《The Sound of Silence》(寂静之声)於经过电吉他貝斯低音鼓等樂器重新混音及包装之后,以細碟形式推出市面,一举登上了美國「告示牌排行榜」冠軍位置[9]。賽門本來已到了英国作個人發展,但由於这首歌曲的成功,使他不得不返回美国,继续和加芬克尔合作。在接下来的几年中,他们又推出了许多成功的专辑,其中著名的歌曲包括《Scarborough Fair》(斯卡伯勒集市)、《Mrs. Robinson》(羅賓遜夫人),《Bridge Over Troubled Water》(惡水上的大桥)等等。1968年1月21日,賽門與葛芬柯好莱坞電影《毕业生》配乐的原聲大碟出版,好評如潮,後來被收入到美国国会图书馆国家级收藏[10]

個人發展

1970年代,賽門與葛芬柯作個人發展。賽門喜歡走世界音樂路綫,有多種音樂風格,著名歌曲包括:《Mother and Child Reunion》、《Kodachrome》、《Loves Me Like a Rock》、《50 Ways to Leave Your Lover》、《Still Crazy After All These Years》,《Slip Slidin' Away》和《Late in the Evening》等等。2003年12月2日,賽門與葛芬柯重聚,以賽門與葛芬柯的名義进行了一次巡回演唱。同年,樂團被授予葛萊美终身成就奖,連這個奖項在內,保羅·賽門已十三次獲得葛萊美獎[11]

2011年10月7日,《美國作曲家》雜誌轉載了賽門的深入訪問,他與音樂記者湯姆·穆恩討論了歌曲創作的藝術。訪談中,賽門解釋了他在詞曲創作的基本主題:愛情、家庭,社會評論等;及宗教、靈性的信息都是寫作的題材。賽門繼續在訪談中解釋了他是如何寫歌:「音樂總是先於文字,歌詞往往來自旋律,並最終演變成連貫的想法,或者是不連貫的思緒。歌曲節奏在過程中十分重要,這就像一個拼圖,要找到合適的詞語來表達音樂要說的話。」[12]

近況

2014年2月8日开始,赛门与英国歌手史汀一起举行名为「On Stage Together Tour」的世界巡迴演唱會,於2015年4月18日圓滿結束。
