Mandy Moore: If I had my way, I would sit here all day and just talk, talk, talk, talk, talk. Well, I basical1y got started in show biz by the time I was about nine or ten. I saw my first play when I was six, totally hooked. The girl on stage looked like she was having so much fun. My parents kind of thought it was a phase I was going to grow out of, but by the time I was about nine or ten they were like, “All right, you‘re not giving up on this, “and they let me get voice lessons, you know to make sure that I was properly and I wasn‘t hurting myself. It was quite amazing you know to get that phone call to actually have the meeting and meet with somebody from a record label and it was very surreal.
David McPherson(Musician):Her voice was just very commercial, I meant, you know some artists have different talents or different things that make them special. Mandy just have a very commercial tone in her voice and so when I heard that, that made me really interested in her.
Mandy Moore: Hey guys, what‘s up? I’m Mandy Moore, Epic Records‘ new recording artist. I think people think that this whole industry is just really easy and it’s so much fun, and I love being an artist and performing live and you know everything that comes along with it. But recording is like, it’s so cool because you get to have all this creative control like how I want harmonies and how I want to do ad-libs and stuff like that, so it really made it seem, even though I didn’t write the song, that they were my own, because I got to pure a lot of myself into them, and I am there when they were mixing and mastering and writing the track. I feel like I just learned so much more about, you know, that goes into making a new artist and into making an new album. So I loved recording. It was very hard, I mean long hours anywhere from like 8 to 10 hours a day, and something got you know pretty stressful and strenuous just doing lines over and over and over again. But I remember something like, like for candy, the whole little speaking part in the middle, actually I penned myself. So I was quite proud of myself.

曼迪·摩爾:如果我能夠,我就整天坐在這里說啊說的。我開始演藝事業(yè)是在大概九歲十歲。六歲時我看到自己的第一個演出,著迷得不行。小姑娘站在舞臺上看起來很自得其樂。父母以為我的熱度會退去,可到我九歲還是十歲大時他們開始說:”好吧,你還沒放棄。”于是他們讓我上練聲課,確保我唱法正確而不會傷害到自己的噪音。你知道,當我接到電話說我真的要與錄音人士見面時,那就像是非現實似的。
大衛(wèi)·麥費森(音樂人):我覺得她的聲音很商業(yè)化。我是說,藝術家們天份各異,各異的天份使他們與眾不同。曼迪的嗓音非常商業(yè)化,所以我聽到后便對她很有興趣。
曼迪·摩爾:嗨,大家好!我是曼迪·摩爾,艾皮克唱片公司最新的錄音歌手。我覺得人們以為唱片業(yè)非常簡單,它非常有意思,我熱愛這行業(yè),也熱愛表演生涯以及隨之而來的一切。但錄音很酷,因為你要把一切創(chuàng)造性地掌握好,比如說希望和聲怎樣,希望即興發(fā)揮怎樣,諸如此類,所以就變得像是,盡管歌不是我寫的,但它們還是我的歌,因為我往里頭傾注了不少心血。他們混音、控音、寫軌的時候我也在場。我覺得自己在包裝新人和制作唱片方面學到了不少東西。所以我熱愛錄音。這工作很不容易,我是說要用很長的時間,比如一天八或十個鐘頭,有時候光是重復唱歌詞就弄得很有壓力感、很緊張了。我記得有時候,像我在唱《糖果》這首歌時,中間那小段說話的部分我的表現就挺可圈可點。所以我是很為自己感到驕傲的了。
