【网上乐评和介绍】
Joel Turner，05年世界beatboxing锦标赛的冠军，生于1987年 3月3日，曾参加2003赛季的澳洲偶像，成长于中下阶层， His mother Grace struggled to raise five children on a sole-parent pension, and the family often had to make do with secondhand clothing, no luxuries and little food. [他的母亲Grace 用唯一的单亲养老金抚养五个孩子，他们往往不得不穿二手衣，没有任何奢侈品，只有很少的食物。]
Joel was just seventeen when he appeared on Australian Idol performing his unique style of "beatboxing" — making drum and other musical sounds with just his voice.[乔在节目 澳洲偶像 上展示他独特风格的beatboxing－－做出鼓声和其他乐器声，同时发出他自己的声音，他才17岁]
" These Kids "是Joel 的哥哥dublt在他的一个朋友自杀后写的
这首These Kids是Joel 与澳洲组合the Modern Day Poets合作的歌。
这首歌讲述的是美国的街头上，那些堕落、腐坏的、被社会遗弃的年轻人。
歌词中，几乎每一个字眼都是在冲击着美国社会的黑暗，把对美国社会的不满完全宣洩出来……不看歌词不知道，其实这首歌有点消极。
这首歌很有节奏感，歌曲中段超快的Rap，Rap的速度比起美国Twista有过之而无不及。
它的曲风特点就是把"Joel Turner"的独特的R&B风格
和"The Modern Day Poets"的Rap的唱功发挥得淋漓尽致，
使听者在听这首歌时，可以在一个充满愤怒、无奈和惋惜的世界之中弥漫着。
【个人听歌感言】
试听：
轻快地飞翔的感觉。曲子不错。
细听，才知道，歌曲风格类似于Eminem的Mockingbird，属于写实一类。
【歌词】
These Kids – Joel Turner & The Modern Day Poets
These kids trapped in a struggle and
这些孩子陷入困境
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
却不知道何去何从
A head full of trouble is all that they’re getting
他们所有的只有满脑的困惑
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
更没人了解他们所经历的苦难
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
而你也不会相信，即使他们向你吐露
These kids trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
（同上）
So many songs, so many times
如此多的歌，如此多的次数
The world had to hear so many rhymes
这个世界不得不去聆听如此多的旋律
About how life is for strugglers
那描述着挣扎者的生活的旋律
Minority groups, kids with single mothers
未成年的，和单身母亲生活在一起的孩子
Young homies turn hustlers, stealing for money
年轻的人（多指黑人）沦为了娼妓，或偷盗钱财
It’s kinda funny how the crime rate is so high
为何犯罪率如此的高实在是好笑的问题
In suburbs where family ties are low, ‘n suicides on the rise
在城郊，那里成立的家庭那么少，而自杀的却不断增加
Oh why, so many die coz in their eyes
哦为什么，他们得到的都是不成立的理由
The mistake they made, cant be erased the only way out is to take their life
他们犯的错不能抹去，唯一的出路只有死
And if they dont do it sudden then they’ll do it slowly
如果不是马上作到，那他们也会漫漫走向那里
Polluting themselves with drugs, because they on this world lonely
用毒品污染着自己的生命，因为他们是如此的孤独
So we as a nation just class ’em as a waste of space
所以，我们只是一个浪费空间的群体
And if they don’t help the economy then strip ’em naked
要不是他们有助经济那会直接将他们剔除
Put ’em on the streets ‘n make sure the police hate ’em
将他们抛弃在街头，而警察也自然就痛恨他们了。
And feed the public phony information on the evening news
Kids may bomb police stations, to get at the boys in blue
This song goes out to the whole justice system
Instead of listening to the kids with the problems
They just tick them off more
Until these kids in prison or dead before they twenty four
These kids trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
You probably heard the news about the 14 year old kid
Who went to Woodridge to get a stick but got his neck slit
What you’ll expect in, the situation that he was facing
With all of these expectations he just wanted to get wasted
But the mistake he made was fatal
What about my mate who put a rope around his neck
But he choked to death instead coz the fall never broke his neck
See both of them,
were trapped in a struggle none of us could comprehend
The younger was in need of weed,
the other had problems with his head
Now they’re both dead, and the same thing happens time ‘n time again
Kids dying all the time ‘n leave us asking why my friend
And then there is those who run away from home
Live on the streets ‘n chrome
Can’t deal with tha pain of the world so they get stoned
Sit in a zone, become known as the local drones
With low vocal tones, they communicate with hopeless groans
And nobody knows they came from broken homes
Plus to us they’re just emotionless clones
And the pain plagues
their brains they can’t maintain healthy lives
Change is all but easy,
a life of crime is all but nice
Plus life isnt worth living unless ya given the chance to fight
Drugs might not be the answer, but who knows wrong from right
When ya parents drinks 2 whole bottles
Of wine, ‘n puts the hose in the coke bottle,
A lot of the time, kids dont know any different
It’s like they losing their minds,
cant get a hold of their visions
Think they’re doing just fine, but they still in the struggle
Yeah the kids of this ti e, in a whole lotta trouble
If you in trouble, jump over that puddle
Some where out there someone really loves you
Loves you like you never been loved, yeah
Loves you like you’ve never been loved
These kids trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows
Nobody knows
These kids trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
trapped in a struggle and
Don’t know where they’re heading, no
A head full of trouble is all they’re getting
And nobody knows the suffering they go through
And you wouldn’t believe ’em if they told you
