x!S;SU P=AS>N^yaL 【明报专讯】英国一名23岁才女自制音乐大碟，击败多名国际歌手荣登英国iTunes下载榜榜首。这精通古典钢琴、结他的新星，没有iPod，却俘虏了iPod迷的心。 沃尔什(Kate Walsh)榜首大碟《Tim's House》收录的歌曲，创作灵感源自她的出生地──埃塞克斯郡的克劳奇河畔伯纳姆。《Tim's House》在制作人添？比德韦尔(Tim Bidwell)家中录制，故以“添的家”命名，他买来总值近9000港元的天鹅绒布，将睡房变成隔音制作室。

YiQ\ 沃尔什将歌曲上载 MySpace 网站后，不久即大受欢迎。她其后说服 iTunes 在网上发售《Tim's House》，上周更成功登上下载大碟榜首。她日前获邀到伦敦的苹果分店表演，受访时直认并非iTunes固定顾客，“实际上，我还未拥有iPod呢！”沃尔什自制大碟的成功经验，证明有创作才华的歌手毋须再靠唱片公司出碟。她说：“我首次创作的大碟叫《Blueberry Pie》，那(自制大碟)相当容易，任何人都做得来，网上的回响令人吃惊。”她18岁时获伦敦音乐学院取录，为了达成自制大碟的心愿，不惜搁置入读大学。她说：“18岁前我一直醉心古典钢琴演奏，从没想过能成为职业创作女歌手。”一周内卖出几千只大碟的沃尔什说：“我希望保持私隐，亦不想与心中的音乐偶像会面，那只会令一直以来的幻想破灭。”她已跟一发行商合作推出CD版大碟，让乐迷能在商铺选购。她笑言：“我每天都会上iTunes榜看看自己是否仍是冠军，我想(下载量)已超越艾顿庄！” - 泰晤士报
