〈Down〉是英國歌手傑伊·尚恩主唱,美國饒舌歌手小韋恩客串的一首歌曲[1]。歌曲是尚恩在北美第一張錄音室專輯,其它地區第三張錄音室專輯《All or Nothing》的首張單曲。. In other markets, including the United Kingdom, the song serves as Jay Sean's lead single from his third studio album. Produced by J-Remy and Bobby Bass, "Down" is the seventh-best selling single of 2009[2] and has been certified Platinum in several countries.[3] The song went on to sell six million copies in the United States.[4][5]
背景與發行
編輯〈Down〉創作於尚恩在邁阿密Hit Factory錄音室的一個深夜錄音環節。尚恩表示:「新聞不斷發生著,一切都很讓人沮喪,於是我們就說:「看看這個兄弟——一切都這麼讓人不開心。我們為什麼不寫一首歌,讓大家暫時忘記這些煩惱呢?」而小韋恩在聽到這首歌曲之後非常喜歡,並往歌曲裡面加入了一段主歌部分[6]。
After the release
編輯The BBC reported in 2009 that Jay Sean became "The Most Successful Male U.K. Urban artist in U.S chart history". "I want to do my best to represent the UK in America and let people really understand that it doesn't matter if we're from a little place called Hounslow. As long as you work hard and strive to do you best and make good music, and of course with a bit of luck, it is possible," Jay told the BBC.[7] The success of "Down" has also led to Sean being considered the most successful European urban artist in North America.[8]
樂評
編輯《告示牌》的金潔·克萊門特(Ginger Clements)認為,尚恩「旋律優美的演唱與歌曲令人印象深刻的清新曲調相得益彰」[9]。該雜誌給予了歌曲91/100的評分[10]。UK Mix的亞歷克斯·麥格雷戈(Alex MacGregor)給予歌曲4星評價(滿分5星),他認為〈Down〉「確實是一首值得稱讚、出類拔萃的節奏布魯斯-流行歌曲,讓聽眾想起了亞瑟小子先前作品的一些美好瞬間」[11]。
商業表現
編輯2009年8月6日,〈Down〉在《告示牌》Hot 100空降第72名。在榜14周後,歌曲成功奪下冠軍,終結了黑眼豆豆在該榜單26周的統治地位,並分別成為尚恩和小韋恩的首張和第二張冠軍單曲。尚恩也成為首個拿下冠軍的印度裔獨唱藝人與城市風格藝人[12][13][14][15]。此外,這也讓尚恩成為自酷玩樂團(以歌曲〈玩酷人生〉)後首個奪冠的英國藝人[16]。
〈Down〉是在至少六年以內排行榜前五點數差距最小之時奪冠的,當時榜單的前5名還有麥莉·希拉'的〈美國派對〉、傑斯的〈Run This Town〉、傑森·德魯羅的〈Whatcha Say〉和黑眼豆豆的〈我有預感〉[17]。在冠軍位置停留一周後,布蘭妮·斯皮爾斯的〈三人行不行〉奪下冠軍。但下一周,歌曲重回冠軍位置[18]。
在英國,歌曲於2009年11月1日取得了該國單曲榜第3名,成為尚恩在該榜單排名最高的歌曲[19]。
On the Austrian Singles Chart, "Down" debuted at number 70 for the week beginning of 5 November 2009, and peaked at number 52. On the Australian ARIA Charts, the song debuted at number nine that same week and peaked at number two three weeks later. On the Belgian Singles Chart, the song peaked at number two. The song debuted at number nine on the European Hot 100 and number 94 on the Japan Hot 100 during the week dated 9 November 2009,[20] and peaked at number 79 on the week dated 6 March 2010.[21] The song debuted on the French SNEP chart at number 19 on 27 February 2010.
歌曲亦是繼艾爾頓·強1997年歌曲〈Candle in the Wind〉後由歐洲男性藝人演唱的在北美銷量最高的歌曲[22][23][8]。
音樂視頻
編輯〈Down〉的音樂視頻和〈Written on Her〉的一起製作。〈Down〉的視頻於2009年4月24日在倫敦開機拍攝。在開機時Cash Money除小韋恩以外的成員都參與了拍攝。視頻的拍攝過程持續了兩天[24] 視頻的後期製作在邁阿密完成,尚恩於2009年5月20日前往美國,與小韋恩一起完成了這段視頻[25][26]。視頻於2009年7月23日上傳至尚恩的YouTube 頻道,展示了尚恩在舞池與一名女性熱舞的故事[27]。
現場表演
編輯尚恩在芝加哥的首次現場表演了歌曲,這次的表演沒有加入說唱段[28]。他亦在梅西感恩節大遊行[29]、多倫多[30]、吉米·坎摩爾直播秀[31]、麥迪遜廣場花園(與歌曲〈Do You Remember〉)[32][33]、溫迪·威廉士秀[34]和 an "acoustic version" for Billboard and Yahoo! Music,[14][35] and the "Candle Light Remix" for BBC Radio 1.[36]。
媒體使用
編輯歌曲曾在電視劇《新飛越情海》的〈Melrose Place〉一集中使用[37]。 "Weird Al" Yankovic covered "Down" as part of "Polka Face," the polka medley from his 2011 album Alpocalypse.
"Down" has been used and covered in numerous user videos on YouTube, including a breast cancer awareness video by the Providence St. Vincent Medical Center.[38][39] A cover version of the song was also performed on the episode 2 of The Sing-Off by the a cappella group Nota. After Nota went on to win the contest during the finale, Sean himself made an appearance, performing "Down" with the group in the show's ending.[40] DJ Bikram Keith and DJ Vix made a "Desi Remix" to "Down".[41] At the Grammy Awards 2010, where Jay Sean was,[42] Taylor Swift stated that "Down" was her favorite song of 2009.[43]
In early December 2009, the song appeared at number 20 on the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 2009. As a result, the single was also included on DJ Earworm's mash-up of all the top 25 Billboard hits of the year.[44] The song also appeared at number 14 on the Billboard Year-End Pop Songs of 2009.[45] Later in the month, it appeared at number 4 on Z100's Top 100 Songs of 2009.[46] It also appeared on VH1's Top 40 Music Videos of 2009 List at number 20. Having sold more than three million digital copies in the United States alone, "Down" is the seventh-best-selling single of 2009,[2] in a year noted for having the highest record sales of all time.[47]
