Red Hot Chili Peppers【Eddie】和訳 Eddie Van Halenへの愛 Anthony Kiedis Sings the Love for Eddie

Lyraのブログへ 👠https://lyriclyra.com/entry/rhcp-eddie/

いよいよ今年2度目のニューアルバムが10月14日にリリースされるRed Hot Chili Peppers。今まで長いあいだ待ち続けていたニューアルバムがまさか、一年のうちに2回も発売されちゃうなんて…

「John Fruscianteよ、戻って来い！」と祈り続けてあっと言う間に月日が経ち諦めながら聴いていたアルバムコレクションに、一気に2枚よ！2枚仲間入りよ！

「こんなに嬉しいことはないわん。」と、アルバムリリース前の新曲を前回メインブログで取り上げましたが、今日は9月23日リリースの【Eddie】を和訳＆解説しちゃいますね。

タイトル通り、あの人についての曲。

賛否両論あるでしょう。でも私は前向き人間だからと言うことと、RHCPを信じているから悪い方には取れないの。

Lyraには、Anthonyの愛だと思っています。

愛するからカッコつけずに事実を盛り込んだストーリー。

そう、Eddie's Forever !!

今日Lyraが和訳＆解説するのは、アメリカ合衆国カリフォルニア州ロスアンジェルスで結成されたバンド、Red Hot Chili Peppers レッド・ホットチリ・ペッパーズ。

February 27th - Free birds!

It’s February 27th, 2024; Yep, the free birds are back! The free birds of paradise that is. We’ve got a hard rock song for you today! Get ready to do some head-bangin’ (if that’s still a thing). Haha! Richard wrote this new song and sent it to friend and singer/guitarist, Tim Chandler from Bradenton, Florida! So, we’ve got a new sound for you with Tim’s great vocals. Let us know what you…

If one listened close to the scene in which the Inspector and Emerald first meet the pixies,

one can hear the song ‘Gigantic’ by the American band The Pixies.

[a-contemplative-soul]

I remember the day when one of my former friends recommended this song to me, at first I didn't like it that much, but eventually it grew up on me and now I consider it as an underground classic.

Song: I Want To Go

Artist: Part Time

Year: 2015

Talking Heads, "Road to Nowhere" (Official Video) from the album 'Little Creatures' (1985)

[decolonize-the-everything]

"All our needs are met by this land, not by Enbridge.” That’s what Wenipashtaabe (Sandy Gokee), an Anishinaabe water protector, told the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) at a June 4 public hearing in Ashland, Wisconsin about a proposal to reroute Enbridge’s Line 5 oil pipeline. Line 5 currently trespasses through the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa’s reservation in northern Wisconsin, and a federal judge last year ordered Enbridge to remove that segment of pipeline off the tribe’s land by June 2026. Enbridge’s plan is to reroute the pipeline, but the company needs approval from the USACE first.

[...]At the meeting, Tribal leaders and environmental advocates from across the region voiced concern about the proposed reroute. That’s because Line 5 poses an environmental risk within Tribal boundaries—and the reroute wouldn’t change this, because it would still be located within the larger Bad River watershed. In other words, an oil spill in that area would still drain into the Bad River, endangering wetlands and groundwater along the river’s course to Lake Superior. “We said off the watershed. You said off the reservation,” Gokee told the USACE at the public hearing. The more than 70-year-old pipeline is 20 years past its expiration date. In some places, including the point where the pipeline intersects with a “meander” in the Bad River, it is in imminent danger of rupture.

Folks aren’t counting on Enbridge to fix this, because the Canadian energy company has a terrible track record. A rupture in another major Enbridge pipeline, 6B, caused the 2010 Kalamazoo River spill, which dumped nearly a million gallons of crude oil into the water over the course of 18 hours before Michigan authorities (not Enbridge) reported the spill. It’s one of the largest inland oil spills in US history. Construction along Enbridge’s Line 3 has caused ongoing harm in Minnesota, where Enbridge contractors released toxic fracking fluids while drilling under waterways, and destroyed wetlands.

The proposed new segment of Line 5 would cross and endanger nearly 200 bodies of water and over 100 acres of wetland as it passes through Ashland and Iron Counties. The $450 million reroute would require temporarily and permanently discharging fill material into wetlands, horizontal drilling under the White River (which flows into the Bad River), and would cause the loss or alteration of wetlands in the 30- to 50-foot wide maintenance corridor surrounding the pipeline, USACE states in an analysis of the plan.

“I can drink the water here now. Let’s keep it that way,” added Gokee at the public hearing.

You can donate directly to the tribe to help them on Defend the Bad River dot org and you can read more about their treaties and their history on the Bad River Band website. Absolutely utilize the tools available to you to educate yourself about this further, please and spread the word!

The oil pipeline laying in the Straits of Mackinac — is 21 years past it’s intended lifespan. A Line 5 rupture would impact 700 miles of Great Lakes shoreline, take years to clean up, and would devastate our Great Lakes economy — putting 214,000 Michigan tourism jobs at risk. The Great Lakes are 20% of the world’s freshwater — we can’t afford to contaminate them with oil.

Their PDF handout about the case:

I want to highlight their demands for people who just saw that wall of text and skipped it cuz this is important:

This is a decently nuanced 14 minute interview about how turning on Line 3 affected native communities; how most are still just taking actions to survive through ongoing oppression and colonization, how activism isnt a luxury a lot of people can afford with mouths to feed and systemic oppression keeping them in cycles of poverty.

Stand with the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa

It shouldn't be on them to fight Enbridge on their own and nobody should be forced to choose between their people or their planet. Uplift their voices and make their demands known and make it known that they're supported and they're not alone.

Patrick and Pete throughout the years

"I remember looking at Pete and Patrick and telling Pete, “You're the luckiest guy in the world because you found this guy." Patrick laughed. Then I turned to Patrick and said the same thing to him. They fit together so perfectly. Pete listens to electronic music and pop. He DJs. Patrick likes old soul and classic R&B. The fact that Patrick found this guy with this vision; Pete had everything for the band laid out in his mind. And the fact that Pete found a guy who can sing like that and take his lyrics and work with them - which is an art unto itself. It's really the combination of those two that really creates the sound and the songs. They're just really lucky they found each other."

One of our greatest failures as a bandom is not hyping up Ray Toro as much as he deserves and I stand by that shit.
