1
A marvellous studio this evening with acts, brand new acts, great legends, all sorts of people.
2
And speaking of great legends, one of the greatest guitar players of all time, and great singers, great songwriters, the lot, we have David Gilmore.
3
Thank you.
4
Very nice to see you.
5
So, congratulations on your number one album, Luck and Strange.
6
I was talking to Matt Johnson and it was his first album for 25 years.
7
But this is your first album for nine years.
8
That's still quite...
9
It's not 25, but it's quite a gap.
10
Why is it so long?
11
There have been a lot of albums over a lot of years, and I'm slowing down a little bit at this point in my life.
12
It sounds great.
13
I'm working all the time, but without a timetable, and it just takes a while.
14
Next one will be much quicker, I promise.
15
You think?
16
Good, OK.
17
We'll all stand by for that in a couple of years' time.
18
Luck and Strange, great title.
19
Where does that come from?
20
Well, it's Polly's lyrics to a track,
21
which is a jam session that we did in 2006 with Rick Wright playing the keyboards on it.
22
We've repurposed it for this
23
and the lyrics are about the temptations of the sort of lifestyle
24
that I've had and other people in our business have had.
25
You know all about those yourselves.
26
Well, how difficult it is to resist those temptations.
27
Yes, I mean, that Piper's call is, you know, summoning you to follow and you find it hard to resist.
28
Always somebody, but also temptations and diversions.
29
It's always something to divert you, what you're trying to get with the music you're trying to do. That too.
30
But that's sort of a, these things are a long way in the past.
31
And Polly is, of course, a great author.
32
Very good title of that book, Lying in Bed.
33
Great title, that double meaning there.
34
But she's been doing some of the words, but also you've had other family members helping, haven't you?
35
Well, Romani, my daughter, is singing lead vocal on one of the tracks for the next song we're going to do.
36
Her voice is amazing, I have to say i heard her songs maybe 10 years ago or something
37
and she was good then now she's absolutely incredible she sang
38
with your band didn't she my big band she sang uh la vie on rose
39
made us all weep it was beautiful when she was 13 yeah exactly
40
because you are noted as one of the world's great guitar
41
players does the flow come out more easily i suppose um would the right piece of music
42
and the right words inspiring you there are still moments where
43
it comes flowing out very naturally other times takes a bit
44
more work now you've just done some triumphant shows in rome
45
at the ancient circus maximus home of the chariot races yes the you know gladiators
46
and all 150 000 people it used to hold until julius caesar up the capacity to 250 000
47
but we only used a tiny bit at at one end, a measly 15,000 people.
48
Well, that's pretty good.
49
And there were no chariots or anything.
50
Nope.
51
But of course, the question you just played in Rome, the question I know a lot of people are going to be asking, what did you have to eat?
52
Well, Italy is a legendary place for food.
53
I love Italian food, of course.
54
But we were a little bit stuck in a very lovely hotel which had a brilliant restaurant.
55
In a moment you're going to do the closing song on the show and Roman is going to sing it.
56
What is it you're going to be doing?
57
It's called Between Two Points.
58
It's a song by a band from the 90s called the Montgolfier Brothers.
59
Two guys who wrote this lovely song, lovely vulnerable song that Polly and I both listen to on a regular basis.
60
Until we came to the thought one day that Polly suggested that we do a cover version.
61
I thought we don't do cover versions, but on this occasion it's such a great song.
62
It's definitely worth it.
63
It sounds absolutely wonderful.
64
And congratulations on a wonderful record that's gone to number one, quite rightly.
65
Thank you very much, David Gilmore.
66
Thank you, Julian.
67
Lovely to see you again. And now...
为什么用这个视频练习口语？
这个视频是大卫·吉尔摩接受采访的对话，内容自然且贴近生活，涵盖音乐创作、家庭故事和演出经历等话题。通过模仿（shadow speak）这样的真实对话，能有效提升英语发音和口语流畅度。视频中主持人与嘉宾的互动节奏适中，适合初学者练习听力和跟读，同时还能学习到地道的表达，是看视频学英语的优质素材。
语境中的语法与表达
- 现在完成时的用法：“It's your first album for nine years.” 用现在完成时强调过去动作对现在的影响，表达“时隔九年的首张专辑”。
- 介词短语表时间：“over a lot of years”“for 25 years” 这些短语能准确描述时间跨度，丰富表达。
- 宾语从句简化：“I promise next one will be much quicker.” 省略引导词“that”，体现口语中的简洁性。
常见发音陷阱
视频中部分单词的发音需要注意：“temptations”的重音在第二个音节，容易误读；“gladiators”的“a”发短音/æ/，而非/eɪ/。此外，大卫·吉尔摩的英式口音中，“got”“lot”等单词的发音较为圆润，练习时可通过shadow speech模仿其语调。多听多练这些细节，能显著提高英语发音的准确性。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
