?

有時候,有個人,你總是看到他(她)的背影,卻又怎麼也追不上;更多時候,光是看著他(她)的背影,你的腦海中就開始上演你所幻想那個有你也有他(她)的未來;幾乎每一回,從幻想中驚醒後的現實腳步快的讓你驚慌失措.
這樣的心情可能有一個名字,但我認為它就是這些歌:

Blonde Redhead-Pink Love

Bob Dylan-Simple Twist Of Fate

Coldplay-Shiver
( So I look in your direction
But you pay me no attention, do you?)

Death Cab For Cutie-Steadier Footing
( I let you bum a smoke, you quit this winter past
I've tried twice before but like this, it just would not last)

Jason Mraz-On Love, In Sadness

Muse-Unintended
(You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love)

Oasis-Wonderwall
(maybe,You're gonna be the one that saves me?
But after all ,You're my wonderwall)

Radiohead-Motion Picture Soundtrack
( I will see you in the next life )

Rilo Kiley-Does He Love You?
( Let's not forget ourselves good friend
I am flawed if I'm not free
And your husband will never leave you
He will never leave you for me)

The Beatles-While My Guitar Gently Weeps
( I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps.)

Travis-Love Will Come Through
( If it's real what I'm feeling
There's no make believing
The sound of the wings
Of the flight)



cheers

The Mountain Goats

The Mountain Goats' is about to release a new album called ''Heretic Pride," I love it for the interesting lyrics and strumming guitar.They first put the song 'Sax Rohmer #1' free on their website but then ,unfortunately,the whole album leaked on the internet. No matter what,''Heretic Pride" is still good start for the other new albums that are about to release this year.
I mean, Coldplay,U2,Oasis,Kooks,REM....It's going to be a very good year!

The Mountain Goats-Sax Rohmer #1

Alaska In Winter

Alaska In Winter與Beirut有很深的淵源,除了因為它們同樣來自新墨西哥州之外,Zach Condon就是八位團員之一,有時還會貢獻vocal.有這樣有名的團員,Alaska In Winter當然是格外的受到注目,換句話說,如果沒有Zach Condon,這張好專輯可能需要更多宣傳與聆聽才會廣為人知了.
不過他們的專輯Dance Party In The Balkans,除了一首Zach Condon獻聲的"Close Your Eyes-- We Are Blind"之外,其他歌曲可是與Beirut不太相同的.Alaska In Winter的音樂也可以帶來溫暖但也正如其團名,它的溫暖是在一片凜冽的寒風中.Brandon Bethancourt的聲音聽來像是穿透冰層的生命,細緻且充滿了活力,它沒有因為使用的樂器多就把整張專輯填的滿滿,適時的留下了空間讓聽者喘息,輕輕的感受冷風中的空氣.
趁著難得的冷氣團來襲,不彷用Alaska In Winter的歌迎接新年!

MP3:
Alaska In Winter-Close Your Eyes - We Are Blind(ft. Zach Condon)
Alaska In Winter-Your Red Dress (Wedding Song at Cemetery)

Happy New Year to you all,
cheers!

Marybell Katastrophy

Marybell Katastrophy是丹麥樂團Tiger Tunes的成員Marie Højlund的solo project,她溫和但又歇斯底里的聲音搭配上豐富且有趣的電子聲牆.乍聽之下有點吵雜,但是卻顯出一絲脆弱的堅強...

Marybell Katastrophy-Red Red
Marybell Katastrophy-Hip

Coldplay covers Pretenders

正在錄製新專輯的Coldplay在他們的網站上給fans一個note寫道,他們"love Christmas songs, but every time we try and write one it’s awful. So we cover them. Well, once or twice actually."所以放上了他們翻唱Pretenders的聖誕歌曲2000 Miles!
Cheers,mate!

One of my favorite song of the year.

The Foxboro Hot Tubs=Green Day?

MySpace上出現了一個叫做The Foxboro Hot Tubs的樂團,他們復古龐克的曲風就和EP封面一樣很有六零年代的風格,而這張六首歌的EP也放在他們的網站上供大家下載.不過大家聽著聽著都不自覺的想:主唱的聲音也太像Green Day的Billie Joe Armstrong了吧!尤其是'Mother Mary'這首歌如果說是Green Day的我也不會懷疑.於是The Foxboro Hot Tubs=Green Day的說法就此傳開,奇妙的是,原本在The Foxboro Hot Tubs網站上的EP這幾天被拿掉換成了一個時鐘.....
上禮拜宣佈明年一月要進錄音室錄製新專輯的Green Day本尊以前也曾經有以暱名'The Network'發過專輯的記錄.The Foxboro Hot Tubs到底是誰目前還不得而知,不過這個六首歌的EP倒也不差呢!
