1
So first, hi.
2
-Hi.
3
-How are you?
4
I'm good, how are you?
5
-I'm okay, thank you.
6
-Okay.
7
Do you recall the first record that you bought?
8
- First record I ever bought.
9
Whew.
10
I remember the first tape I ever bought.
11
Actually like a cassette tape.
12
Do you know what that is?
13
I was-- I'm old enough to remember.
14
OK, good.
15
It was by a band called DC Talk.
16
and I don't know if you know who they are, but it was my first piece of music I ever bought.
17
And I hate that stuff.
18
And what made you buy this specific thing?
19
- Thank you.
20
My dad was coaching basketball for a bunch of high schoolers, and I was just a little
21
elementary school kid and they were all listening to this band and I wanted to listen with them because
22
Because when you're in elementary school, nothing's cooler than a high schooler.
23
I bought the cassette.
24
And that's instilling you the Well, the desire to make music?
25
No, not at all actually.
26
I didn't even think about writing music.
27
So if you think about it, I bought the cassette when I was in first grade.
28
I didn't start playing music until I was in 11th grade, so 10 years later.
29
You're a self -taught musician.
30
What then made you pick up the piano and other instruments?
31
What made me pick up an instrument?
32
I guess...
33
identity issues because I didn't know who I was and I thought I was I thought it was one thing.
34
You know, it's like all about When you go to school and you interact with different kids, you try to figure out who you are.
35
What am I?
36
Am I the jock?
37
Am I the guy who's in theater?
38
Am I in a choir?
39
Do I play songs?
40
Do I whatever?
41
And I was really I was really drawn to something different than what I was in high school.
42
Because in high school I was a guy who did sports.
43
And I didn't really like that, I didn't think.
44
So when I first started learning how to play the piano, I was, I think I just accidentally found that.
45
And I liked, I liked who I was when I was doing that.
46
So did it help you find your identity more?
47
None of my family does any music or anything.
48
So I was just the weird music guy, you know, it was an anchor encouraged or?
49
No, in my family.
50
Yeah, they didn't really understand what was going on because like I said, none of them really are musical at all.
51
But they thought it was cool.
52
You know, it's like I set up a microphone and you know my own, you know, little studio in the basement and my mom's and
53
washing the dishes
54
and she hears her son screaming his head off down in the basement trying to record vocals
55
and she's got to be thinking what the heck is going on with him.
56
So I'm sure that they were really confused.
57
But now, you know, now I'm in a different country getting interviewed by you
58
because of the stupid songs that I wrote in my basement.
59
Fair enough.
60
Do you still have those recordings, those very first recordings?
61
Did you ever listen to them?
62
I have some of the first recordings I've ever done still on my computer
63
and I guard those with my life because I don't want anyone to ever hear them.
64
tons and tons of songs labeled Tyler Joseph because
65
that was my name and I figured that was what I should call the person who was writing the songs.
66
And now it looks ridiculous to see my name just copied over
67
and over and over again because of all the weird songs I wrote in the past.
68
Yeah, you're not going to hear those.
69
But something must have compelled you to keep them.
70
Yeah, you're right.
71
I don't know.
72
I mean, I've thrown away a lot of stuff.
73
And I mostly throw away ideas now more than ever because when I try to write, I get a lot out of it.
74
It helps me work through things.
75
Like in a cathartic sense?
76
Absolutely.
77
It's my word actually.
78
It's my favorite word.
79
Catharsis is...
80
I had that word as a vocabulary word in high school and I'll never forget it because it explained exactly um, what songwriting is for me.
81
And, uh, you don't need to keep the song in order to feel the effect of something like that.
82
So sometimes I'll throw things away, but But back then, I didn't throw stuff away as much because it was so precious.
83
Because they were my first songs ever.
84
You can always hold on to your first songs.
85
And they're terrible.
86
Well, looking back, how did you describe them as being terrible?
87
What then helped you develop as a musician?
88
Listening to other songs.
89
I became a student of the radio and a student of the internet.
90
So some specific bands maybe or?
91
Specifically No, I think that I took different things from from different bands.
92
You know, there's an aspect of my live performance that I've taken from dozens of different performers.
93
There's an aspect of the way that I deliver a vocal on a track
94
that I take from six other people who record in a studio.
95
There's an aspect of my songwriting that I couldn't even begin to talk about only two or three bands that
96
And it's not even fair for me to even talk about just two of them, you know.
97
So I like to not even mention it.
98
It's just so many.
99
So it's more, not certain elements, certain bands, but certain elements that exist in a lot of bands
100
and a lot of music and then compile them and make it your own?
101
Yeah, there's a...
102
For example, something that has influenced me, there's a song, and I don't want to throw everything on to this one band,
103
but there's a song by The Killers, they do a music video, too.
104
And he's standing in the middle of the city in Japan, I believe, and he looks dead in the camera, and his eyes are really calm,
105
but there's a moment where his hand kind of suggesting I'm trying to come across as if I'm fine,
106
but really there's something wrong.
107
I think of a moment like that.
108
That has influenced me musically more than any song has.
109
I come from a generation that had YouTube.
110
I could look up anything I wanted.
111
I was influenced My Chemical Romance, where They're playing in just this dusty abyss.
112
They just pour it all out.
113
That's how much I want to believe in my music.
114
So those things I think of just different moments.
115
But those bands are amazing.
116
But I want to be better than them.
117
It actually sounds like on your website there's this bio section where you talk about joy
118
and happiness and the distinction between them.
119
And this sounds very much like what you just described, the pretense of happiness, but actually it's just joy which fades away.
120
Is that correct?
121
Yeah.
122
No, I think that what I get out of traveling around the world now, being able to play music,
123
things that just translate perfectly.
124
You have sexuality, you know, people are attracted to one another.
125
You know, you have food, people love food.
126
Everybody in the entire world likes food. And you have music.
127
And really those are like the only things that there are.
128
I mean, I'm sure we can come up with some other theories, but you know, you think about music and how and how it just applies to to everyone.
129
Universal...
130
It's very...
131
Universal is a perfect word for it.
132
So, so then I start, as a songwriter, I start thinking of other universal Concepts.
133
And I think that one of those whether or not people really understand it is the concept of
134
trying to figure out how to go about this life in a way that you
135
enjoy yourself or in a way that you like who you are.
136
And whether or not you like who you are is really hinged upon whether or not you have joy.
137
Because I'm happy that I'm here right now talking to you.
138
but then something else can happen where I'm about to go play a show
139
and nothing goes right and then I'm not happy anymore.
140
It's very, It's fleeting.
141
it gets influenced by the things that are going on around me and if I'm controlled by just that, then I'm gonna go nuts.
142
I need to find something bigger.
143
I need to find something that I have joy, which I feel like kind of, it spans out over my entire life.
144
If hopefully, you know, more than just a moment, hopefully a day, a month, years, where joy just is is there and I think that when you find joy, then you find peace.
145
And when you find peace, then you have obviously found something to believe in.
146
But it is still, I assume, then a continuous struggle to find it.
147
Absolutely.
148
And that's.. that goes back to...
149
another universal language. And that's...
150
struggling to find peace.
151
And that's something I think that every single person on Earth has to figure out.

本节课学习内容
通过这段乐队成员的访谈对话，你将练习日常口语中的自然表达，包括回忆经历、讲述原因等场景。对话语速适中，语气亲切，非常适合用来训练“shadow speech”（影子跟读），提升英语口语的流畅度和语感。
核心词汇与短语
- cassette tape：盒式磁带（对话中提到的老式音乐载体）
- identity issues：身份认同问题（描述对自我定位的困惑）
- self-taught musician：自学成才的音乐家
- instill：灌输（文中指培养某种欲望）
- anchor：支柱（此处指音乐成为自我认同的支撑）
影子跟读练习技巧
这段对话的特点是口语化强，常有自然的停顿和思考语气（如“Whew”“I guess”）。练习时，建议先逐句听熟，再进行“英语影子跟读”：播放一句，立刻跟着重复，注意模仿说话人的语调变化和节奏。刚开始可以放慢速度，重点捕捉“what made you...?”“I didn't even think about...”等常用句式的发音。
若觉得跟不上，可使用“shadowing site”的慢速播放功能，先掌握每个单词的发音，再逐渐提速。坚持每天练习5-10分钟，能有效提升英语口语的反应速度和自然度。记住，影子跟读的关键是“同步”，不要等句子结束再开口，尽量做到边听边说，这样才能真正锻炼语感。
通过这段真实的访谈对话练习，你不仅能学会实用表达，还能掌握日常交流中的语气技巧，让你的英语口语更地道。赶紧开始“shadowspeaks”练习吧！
视频中的语法
说话人最常用的结构，并附上视频中的原话：
| 结构 | 视频中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事 | I've ever done · I've thrown · I've taken |
| 被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么，而不是谁做的 | was really drawn · was influenced · are attracted |
| 定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物 | guy who did · person who was · people who record |
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。
