最近听了 The XX的新作《On Hold》,感觉...变了...
是我的错觉吗?
所以还是把以前的一首翻了出来。对比之下,嗓音还是原来的嗓音,唱腔还是原来的唱腔,作词的风格也还是原来那样。唯一改变的,似乎是那份消失了的孤独迷离的Urban质感。
新加入的元素冲淡了电吉他撩拨出的城市喧闹背后的寂寞,消弱了原本The XX的音乐本身对听者自身情绪感受的共鸣。
还是更习惯于曾经那种极简的路线吧...一把吉他、一把贝司、重复简单节奏的合成器和鼓点机。
重新带回这首《Shelter》
Lyrics:
i find shelter, in this way
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear, when I say?
I have never felt this way
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Could I be, was I there?
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown, whenever you leave
Please teach me gently how to breathe
And I'll cross oceans, like never before
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll mirror images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
