关注独立音乐的朋友不知道会不会忽视加拿大的清新势力,其实当更多的朋友把注意力放在欧洲清新小厂或者美国新锐公司的时候,象加拿大这样有着丰富音乐资源的国家总是被遗忘。
这次介绍的Star便是来自多伦多的乐队最初是在纽约组建,后来回到加拿大才调整到现在的阵容。Star迄今已经发表过三张专辑,自第二张Heart开始与加拿大独立公司Arts & Crafts合作。乐队主唱Torquil Campbell除了乐队的事业,还从事影视音乐的制作,曾参与《欲望城市》等剧的原声音乐编配。
虽说乐队成员大都是New wave的追随者,但在他们的音乐里所体现的仍旧是常青的吉他流行曲风骨,当然两位主唱(男女各一)嗓音的搭配令人感觉清新而不腻滑,较之欧洲一些清新团体过于甜腻的歌声来说,Star保留了更多的力量和激情。男女双主唱是他们的标志,而加拿大烙印式的乐观主义的歌词造诣,更显示了Torquil对作词的天赋,曲风上,轻快略带飘忽的鼓点,适度的riff回旋,以及时而的电子元素,给Stars套上了一层复古的外皮。
歌词秀:
Calendar girl /Stars
If I am lost for a day; try and find me 如果你一天没有看到我,试着去找我
But if I don't come back, then I won't 但如果我没回来,我就不会回来了
Look behind me All of the things that I thought were so easy 回头看看 所有这些我曾经觉得很容易的事情
Just got harder and harder each day 如今变得越来越难
December is the darkest and 十二月最黑暗
June is the light but this empty bedroom won't make anything right六月最明朗,但空荡荡的卧室总觉得
While out on the landing a friend I forgot to send home去接朋友时,我忘记回家的路
Who waits up for me all through the night 谁等了我一整夜
Calendar girl who is in love with the world 和世界相爱的日历女孩
Stay alive仍活着
Calendar Girl who is in love with the world 和世界相爱的日历女孩
Stay alive仍活着
I dreamed I was dying; as I so often do和往常一样,我梦到我就要死了,
And when I awoke I was sure it was true当我醒来时,我确信那是真的
I ran to the window; threw my head to the sky我走到窗边,抬头向天空望
And said whoever is up there,please don't let me die 说无论谁在那里,请不要让我死
But I can't live forever,I can't always be但我不能永远活着,我不能永远呼吸
One day I'll be sand on a beach by a sea某天我会变成海边沙滩上的沙
The pages keep turning, I'll mark off each day with a cross 生活一直过,我会用十字来记录我的每一天
And I'll laugh about all that we've lost 我会笑对我们失去的东西
Calendar Girl who is lost to the world 和世界相爱的日历女孩
Stay Alive仍活着
Calendar Girl who is lost to the world和世界相爱的日历女孩
Stay Alive仍活着
