卡百利乐队( The Cranberries),意译又称小红莓乐队,大家应该不会陌生,有人说王菲就模仿她这种唱法,当然我觉得卡百利这种独树一帜的风格,无人能够比拟。主唱Dolores O' Riordan的嗓音是一种真实的特别,略带鼻音,但不带一丝做作,有种超凡脱俗,凌驾于现实黑暗社会之感,歌词同样发人深省。有名的曲子 < Zombie>, 一首描写战争残酷的歌曲,当她唱出 的那种感觉,就像战争洗刷并重创了人们的心灵,表现出极度的愤怒和那种无力的挣扎。< Never Grow Old> 这首很符合 Dolores O' Riordan 的嗓音,略带清唱,表现出一种对世事的心底的期待,像孩童时的梦想,也像饱含沧桑的低吟,希望一切都不会老,永远年轻,但只是个梦。
我最喜欢的还是卡百利的< animal instinct >, 译为<本能>, 这首也是众多外文歌里我唯一能全部唱下来的,do you know you made me cry, do you know you made me die. 最喜欢的两句,还有那不停歇的,the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me。不知道这首歌反映了我当时的心态,还是反映了整个社会的心态,总之爱上这首歌就无可救药的不能自拔了。
THE CRANBERRIES - ANIMAL INSTINCT - THE CRANBERRIES
suddenly something has happened to me
as i was having my cup of tea
suddenly i was feeling depressed
i was utterly and totally stressed
do you know you made me cry
do you know you made me die
and the thing that gets to me
is you´ll never really see
and the thing that freaks me out
is i´ll always be in doubt
it is a lovely thing that we have
it is a lovely thing that we
it is a lovely thing, the animal
the animal instinct
so take my hands and come with me
we will change reality
so take my hands and we will pray
they won´t take you away
they will never make me cry, no
they will never make me die
and the thing that gets to me
is you´ll never really see
and the thing that freaks me out
is i´ll always be in doubt
the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me
it´s the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me
it´s the animal, it´s the animal, it´s the animal instinct in me
I Don't Want To Miss A Thing - aerosmith - Enter album here
i could stay awake just to hear you breathing
watch you smile while you are sleeping
while you're far away and dreaming
i could spend my life in this sweet surrender
i could stay lost in this moment forever
every moment spent with you is a moment i treasure
i don't wanna close my eyes
i don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
the sweetest dream will never do
i'd still miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
lying close to you feeling your heart beating
and i'm wondering what you're dreaming
wondering if it's me you're seeing
then i kiss your eyes and thank god we're together
and i just wanna stay with you
in this moment forever, forever and ever
i don't wanna close my eyes
i don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
the sweetest dream will never do
i'd still miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
i don't wanna miss one smile
i don't wanna miss one kiss
well, i just wanna be with you
right here with you, just like this
i just wanna hold you close
feel your heart so close to mine
and stay here in this moment
for all the rest of time
don't wanna close my eyes
don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
the sweetest dream will never do
'cause i'd still miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
i don't wanna close my eyes
i don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
the sweetest dream will never do
i'd still miss you, baby
and i don't wanna miss a thing
don't wanna close my eyes
