Brian: he is too young to die, for how old he is when he went away?
Nikky: 42
Brian: for what?
Nikky: I don't know, drug abuse(过量吸食毒品)probably
Brian: he was born in NY?
Nikky: no, he was born in a poor country of northeastern Mississippi (密西西比东北部的一个贫穷的小山村里)and died in 1977
Brian: 1977?
【注】我正好在这一年出生
Nikky: yes, August in 1977
Brian: that was the year I was born, but in March not August
Nikky: u hear any songs of him?
Brian: basically a few songs, these r old hits(老的流行轰动歌曲) and gospels(福音歌), but I don't know what he was trying to sing about
Nikky: the gospels are better than ever
【注】实际上我几乎没有听过猫王的什么歌,和nikky聊完后曾连夜在网上下栽了猫王的很多代表性歌,但是每一首都让我听不下去,不住张嘴破骂:什么破歌!
Brian: but why he took such a lot of pills, the pills to sleep, pills to wake?
Nikky: nobody knows about it, even his then wife Priscilla
【注】有一点必须承,nikky的记性真的是很好,上次和她谈到乔丹的时候,她也是把乔丹的妻子和孩子的名字如数家珍,这次猫王的老婆也不例外。
Brian: a forever sorrow to the American people, but I just like his deep sideburns【注】鬓胡,也可以叫洛腮胡,刚才的那个是whiskers。
Nikky: u don't have
Brian: yes L
Brian: and I know that he was one of those American dreams, a poor-to-rich model.
Nikky: he had a poor childhood and when he was 12 year old, his mom got him a 12, (吉他) he rarely let it out of his hands(有了吉他以后,他几乎没有放下过吉他), and he got talent, huge talent
Brian: u like him
Nikky: I don't have his songs regularly but I do like him
Brian: so did ur brother, right?
Nikky: he was not his fans actually
Brian: :)
