　　Iron Man 3, Transformers 1...53. Resident Evil. 钢铁侠3，变形金刚……53，生化危机。

　　Really it's beginning to be kind of like a world pop and that's what I'm looking forward to and that's what I'm focusing on these days. 确实，这开始变成一种世界流行文化，而这就是我期待的，也是我目前关注的。
　　There's J-pop, there's K-pop, there's C-pop, and there's like this W-pop, that's kind of starting to emerge 2.It's world pop, and I think... yeah, I love that idea. It's not World Music. 有日流，有韩流，就有华流，还有一个世界流，它们开始融合。世界流，我喜欢这个概念。那不是世界音乐。
　　It's not like, there used to be section in HMV called World Music, that was like Ethnomusicology class in college, no, but world pop is more about breaking and tearing down age-old stereotypes 3, the artificial confines that have kept us apart for way too long. 并不是说过去HMV有一块领域叫世界音乐，那像是大学里的音乐民族课，不是的，世界流行音乐更加地打破老旧的刻板印象，打破那种将我们隔开太久的人工界线。
　　It's a melting pot, and it's a mosaic 4 that even if we looked up close, we'd still see the colours and the flavours of each culture in detail. 这是一个大熔炉，是一个马赛克，如果你凑近看，还能从细节上看到，每一种文化的颜色与风味。
　　And where can we go to listen to world pop? 我们可以去哪里听世界流行音乐呢？
　　I don't think there's a world pop station or magazine, unfortunately, there are none, there should be. 我认为没有一个世界音乐电台或者杂志，很遗憾，没有，我觉得应该要有。
　　But there is the internet, and YouTube has proven to be a driving force for world pop. 但是我们有互联网，Youtube已经被证明是世界流行音乐的有力传播渠道。
　　Britain's Got Talent made Susan Boyle the hottest act in the world, and she achieved that not through the record labels or the networks, but through grassroots sharing. 英国达人已经让苏珊·波伊尔成为了世界最热，她成功不是通过唱片公司或广播公司，而是通过草根之间的分享。
　　Gangnam Style is another great example of how that just took over became huge worldwide world pop phenomenon. 江南style是另一个世界音乐轰动全球的最佳例子。
　　So world pop also suggests a worldwide pop culture, and something that can be shared by all of us and gives us a lot of common ground. 所以要有世界流行音乐，就要有一个世界范围的流行文化，是一种可以被所有人共享的东西，给我们一个共同的领地。
　　So today, what's my call to action? 所以今天我要呼吁什么？
　　I want to help improve and promote the cultural exchange between the East and West.I think I have made that clear, but how? 我想要加强东西方之间的文化交流。这点已经很清楚了，但是如何做到？
　　I think...you can all become pop singers, really.I think that's the answer.No I'm just kidding, unless that's what you really want to. 我认为…你们都可以成为流行歌手，真的。我认为这就是答案。不，我是开玩笑，除非你真的想当歌星。
