Everything But The Girl-Rollercoaster
“从JAZZ到ACOUTIC 从舞曲到电音 从纯朴到摩登 他们音乐中自由飞行 犹如单纯简约的靡靡之音。”
EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL是英国独立乐人Ben Watt 和Tracey Thorn组成的夫妻档乐队,名字来源于一家家具店的广告词:“We have so many special furnitures for you,and here we can offer everything but the girl!(除了女孩我们什么都提供)”从八十年代乐队开始运作以来,EBTG几乎涉及了所有音乐类型,流行、摇滚、电子、爵士等等,成为独立乐坛的金牌夫妻。
学校的丰富资源使我在大三认识了它,一个牛人同学收集了几乎所有专辑和单曲,做了它的第一个中文网站:http://ebtg.6to23.com/。听到的第一张专辑是1984年出的“EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL”,清新的民谣曲风加上以前未接触过的爵士味道,还有Tracey低沉的中低音是它强烈吸引我的因素。Tracey,一个平胸女人,声音释放的气味总是另人想起夏天 沙滩 夕阳 微风这一完美组合。每次听都能找到村上《且听风吟》的感觉。中后期的他们着力研究电子乐并成功转型加进更时髦的因素,而作品也因此失去了以前那种另人怀旧的味道。
I still havent got over it even now
I want to spend huge amounts of time on my own
I dont want to cause any serious damage
I want to make sure that I can manage,
Because I m not really in your head
I m not really in your head
Everything But The Girl
And I see love and disaffection
And the clouds build up and wont pass over
This is my road to my redemption
And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway
I still havent got over it even now
I want to spend huge amounts of time in my room
And I m not coming out until I feel I m ready
Not running out while my hearts unsteady
Because I m not really in your head
When your sky falls to minus zro
Well some things must disappear
Oh this is my road to my redemption
And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway
The names may have changed but the faces are the same
The names may have been changed but as people we are not the same
And I m not
No I m not
No I m not really in your head
And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway
Yeah my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway
