简介：小简介翻唱八、九十年代热门金曲似乎是摇滚圈中迅速获得瞩目与话题的不二法门，屡试不爽；近几年来最让人印象深刻的有Ska-Punk乐队Reel Big Fish翻唱挪威三人组合A-ha的《Take On Me》、Nu-Rock乐队Alien Ant Farm 翻玩昔日流行天王Michael Jackson的《Smooth Criminal》、Good Charlotte为电影《Not Another Teen Movie》翻唱OMD的《If You Leave》。而Kelly Osbourne也在2002年为合辑《The Osbourne Family Album》以Pop-Punk手法翻玩了天后Madonna的86年大热金曲《Papa Don't Preach》。 　　其实摇滚乐迷或许对Kelly Osboune并不会感到陌生，因为她正是重金属乐界长青老将Ozzy Osbourne的么女，在拥有广大收视群的美国MTV音乐台的系列单元Osbournes中频频曝光亮相，而今年的全美音乐奖，人气鼎盛的Osbournes家族成员更扛起主持人重任。Kelly先以《Papa Don't Preach》在2002年7月以单曲形式问市后，不但一举在美国打入电台点播榜的第28位，更成为英国金榜的Top 10金曲。紧接着Kelly便被Epic厂牌公司所网罗，花了两个月的时间在纽约完成了这张处女专辑《Shut Up》。 　　在流行、摇滚制作大将Rick Wake (Mariah Carey、Jennifer Lopez、Destiny's Child)操刀下，《Shut Up》一方面捕捉了1984年出生的Kelly那份初生之犊的年轻气息，一方面又适度反映出她对于Queens Of The Stone Age、The Strokes、The Used等当红摇滚乐队的喜爱，在流畅的曲调带领下揉合了Indie-Pop、New Wave、Pop-Punk、Pop-Metal元素而来，总之是与老爸Ozzy的风格大相径庭，反倒会让人想起当红炸子鸡Avril Lavigne亦或昔日红极一时二人组合Shampoo的那种少女Bubblegum-Punk之音呢！ by Johnny Loftus As the scion of a well-heeled heavy metal icon and his clever manager wife, Kelly Osbourne's celebrity was perhaps inevitable. Still, it was a curious blend of bizarre reality TV success, talent for performance, typical teenage petulance, and a flair for Courtney Love-like self-promotion that ultimately posited Kelly fully in the public's consciousness. Kelly Osbourne was born October 27, 1984, in London, England. Growing up during the heady days of Ozzy's '80s comeback, she split her time between proper English schooling and international hotel rooms. It was certainly an unconventional upbringing, but one that strengthened the Osbournes' familial bond in strange and interesting ways. Kelly and her family moved permanently to Los Angeles in 1995, and saw Ozzy's Ozzmosis LP sell three million copies, ably returning him from the edge of retirement. That resurgence led to Ozzfest, a perennially successful summer package tour that itself aided in the popular resurrection of the metal genre. Naturally, with Ozzy's reemergence came interviews and press. As Kelly and her brother Jack began making more and more appearances with their mom and dad, observers noted the Osbournes' quite different take on the traditional family dynamic. And after a particularly memorable visit by Cribs to the lovably battling brood, MTV could see that it had something good. The Osbourne Family premiered in March 2002, and was an immediate worldwide hit. Fashionably brash, impossibly crass, and a bit of a loudmouth, Kelly quickly proved adept at spotlight-hogging. The release of the clunky Osbourne Family Album that June signaled that the tie-ins and overexposure had reached a fever pitch. However, Kelly's rocked-up send-up of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach" made considerable noise, and suddenly Sony/Epic (Ozzy's longtime label home) was readying a Kelly Osbourne full-length. The fizzy, lightly rocking Shut Up appeared for the first time in November 2002, accompanied by a media blitz banking on Kelly's reality TV exposure and her larger-than-life persona. However, despite multiple magazine covers, chatty interviews, and her participation in the Osbournes' profanity-laced hosting of that year's American Music Awards, Shut Up failed to spark much interest, and by May 2003, Kelly had been dropped from Epic. The setback neither slowed her down nor shut her up, and by autumn Kelly had resurfaced on the Sanctuary label. Rather than releasing new material (it was rumored Kelly had had an album in the can at Epic before her dismissal), Sanctuary reissued Shut Up in September 2003 as Changes. It included live material and new cover art, as well as the title track and lead single, a refashioned Kelly/Ozzy duet version of the old Black Sabbath Vol. 4 ballad. It continued to be an eventful life for Kelly and her family. With another season of The Osbournes in full swing, Kelly announced that she had been suffering from depression. Then there was the dissolution of her relationship with Used singer Bert McCracken, the announcement of her mother's fight with cancer, Ozzy's serious injury in an ATV accident, and Jack's entrance into drug rehab. Ozzy also scuffled with a burglar at the family's Buckinghamshire estate. But Kelly also received strong notices for her actress turn in the short-lived ABC teen drama Life as We Know It, and laid plans for another album even as she labored through rehab. Sleep in the Nothing appeared via Sanctuary in June 2005, with production and co-writing from hitmaker Linda Perry. It trashed the rock sound of her debut for stark dance-pop influenced heavily by the 1980s, a sound Kelly said was more representative of her tastes.
