这个凌晨有点不正经……
<b>M83 "Night"</B>
["M83", 2001]
就像Tori Amos是由他人介绍才知道有Kate Bush这么一个人,屡被拿来与My Bloody Valentine相提并论的M83也是做完第一张大碟后才听的MBV。也不知是不是这种比较才让他们去年的"Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts"越发MBV质感化,好马后炮喔……这第二张里的"Unrecorded"是很漂亮没错,但好像一下子把所有的精华全透支掉了,接下去听,就觉得一曲比一曲累赘,很快就厌了。其实他们的同名处女作并没有如何MBV,数数就"Night"这一首;开头结尾的德语男声和整曲背景里逸动的synth beat,反倒成了必需的点缀,哈哈。

<b>Jeff Hanson "Some Years Ago"</b>
["Son", 2003]
粉雄救兵……sorry,人家Jeff小哥应该不是,PP之类苍蝇不要嗅觉瞬时提升一百万点 真嫉妒他那把好像还没过变声期的baby嗓,其实也并不如一些评论所言“似足女孩”,男性的底音还是听得出来的;但听这样简朴清新(试想这个词的使用频率)的东西,我就喜欢再多些其他噱头。不要误解他跟那个三孩组Hanson有什么关系,Jeff Hanson比他们大哥还大点儿,——这又是一个噱头了吧。简单一句,"Some Years Ago"很棒,有三个音符可以点人死穴。

<b>Fun Lovin' Criminals "Bump"</b>
["Loco", 2001]
起初听见电视上放这个歌里唱那个词就立即草木皆兵,及至认真找来听时才发现是相反的意思:tears::kill: 无论如何这歌还是蛮有哼头的,调调挺像"Funky Little Demons"时候的The Wolfgang Press。MV里小胡子叔Huey在夜Club里扛包东西边走边唱,呵,竟有点阴错阳差的妩媚哩。

I was working at the club
In 1995
Sunday was the night
That the gay club came alive
See, I would carry ice
And the crowd was just so nice
That my phobio drownd
Mah, I was getting down
Chorus:
I met the finest girl in my life
That night, at GAY NIGHT
I met the finest girl in my life
That night, at GAY NIGHT
GAY NIGHT, it’s alright, don’t be uptight
See, halfway through the evening
I saw this woman gleaming from across the room
See, she was with some guys, but when the gave me the eyes
I knew she was just their freind, hanging out on the weekend
Chorus:
I met the finest girl of my life
That night, at GAY NIGHT...
It’s alright, don’t be uptight

<b>Kitchens of Distinction "Gorgeous Love"</b>
["Strange Free World", 1990]
今天似乎老打擦边球……OK,这一个看起来像真货了。虽然没有确凿言明,然而……普通情况下何必“here are the words of those who dared to speak”咧?说得出来,便是“open noisy big brilliant love”了。不管怎样,算不得“粉雄救兵”,援兵总通了吧。(昨晚看占星了,强词“夺浪漫”正是白羊座的天份 )

I can feel the waves of your gorgeous love
And it hurts to think that this is seen as wrong.
I can take your pain, anything, to overcome our fear
And we're strong, strong enough to prove it.
I notice things about you as the morning kisses your eyes
How your face relaxes through the caress of night
How in the evening it's tense and pulled features
And we know how easily we can smooth them.
You turn to touch me to hold me fast.
You turn to touch me to whisper your love.
Here are the words of those who dared to speak
Of this open noisy big brilliant love
Which is all I have to give.
I never knew that our need for love could be so strong
I'm not confessing, time disappears when we're alone.
I'm not ashamed of expressing the love I hold for you.
It's ultra-romantic, I fear everything that's not you.
I fell asleep, when I wake
You were staring at me in this draining orange London light.
