寫履歷表有一欄是英文自傳,通常看到這欄就是頭大。
於是我想到我在網路上看到過最好的biography,可以拿來當範本。
以下是 Lost Horizon 樂團史
The old Millennium reaches it's end. The year is 1998. A sudden mighty gust of the Metal wind fills up the hearts of the three pure ones. Wojtek, Martin and Christian are their names.
舊世紀結束了,時為1998年。突然颳起的神聖金屬強風充滿了三個純潔的心靈,他們的名字是 Wojtek Martin 及 Christian 。
That sacred call, that final cry, breeds a spiritual aspiration, which leads to the great gathering of the three.

那神聖的呼叫,最後的吶喊,蘊育著一個精神上的志向,領導這三人偉大的聚首。
Under a prodigious influence of the same, shared flame, baptised in Metal and the restored will, they interlace their faiths and conclude their goals. Transcendental Protagonist, Cosmic Antagonist and Preternatural Transmogrifyer are born.

在同樣的巨大的影響之下,共有的火焰,在金屬和被恢復的意志洗禮中,他們交織他們的信念和締結他們的目標。
超越倡導者,宇宙對立者,臨死變形者誕生了。
During two years, the reunited companions consequently prepare a great manifestation for the world - their first album of power. About a year later, when the adjusting of the thoughts is almost finished, another shape turns up on the horizon. The singer Daniel joins the brave ones, embellishing the music by his divine voice. Shortly thereafter, two demonstration songs are recorded. Also he, listening to his deepest ego, finds his real identity. The new, fourth warrior is born. His name is Ethereal Magnanimus.

在二年期間,團聚的同伴準備為世界做個巨大的證明 - 第一張力量的專輯。一年後,思想的調整將結束,另一個形態在地平線上現身了,主唱 Daniel 加入這群勇者,用神聖的歌聲裝飾音樂。不一會,兩首展示用的歌錄好了,主唱 Daniel聆聽自我的深處,發現了自己的真實身份。第四個戰士誕生了,他的名字叫做飄逸的高尚者。
In June 1999, the demonstration CDs are sent out to several record labels. By the end of the summer, the formation receives very positive feedback and interest from most of them. Yet, only one of them proves itself worthy enough. It's Music For Nations. In March 17th, 2000, both parties finally signs a covenant, and the collaboration begins. Shortly after, a music studio is entered and the recording begins. Like in a trance, with no rest and no mercy, from late March through mid August, the album "Awakening The World" is being created. Only the walls of the several studios know the pain and the suffering that is being experienced. But nothing can stop this enterprise.
在1999 年6月,示範CDs 被送去幾個唱片公司。在夏天將盡,收到很正面的回響和大多數公司的興趣。然而,他們的當中只有一個證明自己足夠資格。就是Music For Nations。在2000 年3月17 日,兩方最後簽署契約,並且合作開始。之後進入錄音室開始錄音,就像進入恍惚狀態,不用休息也沒有憐憫,從三月底到八月中,專輯"震醒世界"被創造出來了。只有錄音室的牆壁知道其中的痛苦和磨難,但是沒有任何東西能阻止這冒險事業。
And now the work is finished. The first ritual is over. The second begins. And out of nowhere the fifth and the sixth warrior are on their way to take their place at the round table, where two of the thrones that surround it have been waiting to be ascended. The new dawn is born and is here to stay. Once lost. Now brought back.
工作現在已完成。第一儀式結束。第二開始了。並且突然出現第五個和第六個戰士將在圓桌上取得一席, 二王位圍繞園桌等待傳人。新黎明出生了並停留在此。一度失去的,現在帶回來了。
The LOST HORIZON.
好的自傳就是要這麼屌,必須與宇宙力量相結合,才能達到天人合一的境界啊。
樂團目標.. 這更了不起~ 以致難以翻譯~ 立志當如是~
Our wish is to help all those whose existence have gradually turned to complete misery through the interference and affection of extremely negative powers in different shapes, that through, among other things, misleading, corruption, confusion, indoctrination, rottenness, creating of guilt and fear, have poisoned the individual. The ones who are victims of lies, stupidity, primitivism, blindness, limitation, weakness, self-destruction, low self-esteem, goallesness, etcetera. Those who have fallen into the darkest abyss and stumble in darkness.
We want to help them find the voice of their inner self, which by help of the inner Force will bring the awakening. The awakening will be a new start. A way back, followed by the redintegration. The person will never turn the same, but strengthened by pain - seeing, hearing, feeling, thinking and sensing in a much better way. The dark experiences will turn into an advantage. The bright knowledge will mix with the dark in a perfect composition, the golden combination, the natural balance, harmony and understanding of things, knowledge and strength, the point and the self. To happiness.
For all of what we are, this means an opportunity to change things on a larger scale. Not only to play our music and hope that people like it, but rather to actually say something with what we do and make people take a step back and open their eyes, thus contributing to a change not only in their lives, but also to the world.
