Blunt非常年轻,但我习惯性称他为“大叔”,至于其中道不清的由来,或许可以解释为他在我心目中一直并不属于这个纷杂混乱的二十一世纪摇滚圈。 第一次听到James应该是2005年,在那个除了梦想荒芜一片的年代。那段时间厌倦了punk沉迷trip-pop和goth,并每天感觉到自己情绪的别样变化。James Blunt的出现,他说Cry on my shoulder,I'm a friend.。声音中带着清冷的撕裂,来自英伦的音乐被温暖覆盖。 James Blunt是谁?许多人可以和我一样如数自己的过去般介绍他的一切。我们称呼他为“音乐诗人”,“上尉诗人”。他出生和成长在英国军官家庭,从小受到正统的学校教育,他是一名优秀且颇有才华的理科生,拥有名牌大学的毕业文凭(尤利同学再过几天就是James的校友了^_^),在学校里他学会了钢琴和吉他,但许多摆脱不掉的背景将他送入军队,他担任过英女王的亲卫队,参加科索沃战争,他从一名普通士兵一路升到上尉,他是第一个被派遣到普利斯提纳的英国军官,领导三万人的和平部队……再然后,他离开部队,成为了一名歌手。命运之门从此开启。 其实这些并不重要。现在独自站在台上,抱着吉他唱歌的是一位英国歌手。他见证过死亡,经历过战火,他用他沉静忧郁的嗓音,带着自我的疏离,淡淡吟诵他单纯通彻的灵魂。不要再为生活哭泣,不要抗拒你冷漠的恋人,当No bravery的钢琴前奏响起,夏日阳光破碎一地。 我们试图寻找他歌曲中的隐喻,You are beautiful的MV结尾他从悬崖一跃而下跳入大海,我和朋友们曾经和论坛聊起过。有人认为那是对科索沃战争的影射和反抗,但于我自己宁愿仅仅认为那是他因为爱人的诀别。摇滚乐本无需愤怒。 James回来了,带着他温暖的歌,为了让唱歌和听歌的人更加快乐 主打曲目1973MV及歌词 Simona You're getting older Your journey's been Etched on your skin
Simona Wish I had known that We seemed so strong We've been there and gone
I will call you up everyday Saturday night And we both stayed out 'til the morning light And we sang, "Here we go again" And though time goes by I will always be In a club with you
In 1973 Singing "Here we go again"
Simona Wish I was sober So I could see clearly now The rain has gone
Simona I guess it's over My memory plays our tune The same old song
I will call you up everyday Saturday night And we both stayed out 'til the morning light And we sang, "Here we go again" And though time goes by I will always be In a club with you In 1973 Singing "Here we go again"

I will call you up everyday Saturday night And we both stayed out 'til the morning light And we sang, "Here we go again" And though time goes by I will always be In a club with you In 1973 Singing "Here we go again"
