不知道还有多少人还记得他们，巴西歌手Isabel Monteiro的Drugstore， 是我最早认识的dreampop乐队之一，着迷於Mazzy Star的同一时期， 有他们两张听了N遍的专辑，都是很长一段时间奉为珍宝的唱片。 今天听前卫花园唱片代理的Fiel Garvie 「Leave Me Out of This」(2003) 时， 就回想起Drugstore的女主唱，那沙哑而痛撤心扉的歌声。 1998年第二张专辑 White Magic for Lovers里， 记得那时最引人注目的是Radiohead主唱参与的"El President"， 而我最喜欢的歌曲一直是"Sober"， 具有Radiohead在「Bend」时期以及Oasis在1995年黄金时代的吉他风格， 情绪强烈而百听不厌， 前一阵子版上在选Britpop代表歌曲，我推荐这首歌。 Sober /Drugstore Well I'm So scared I might fall down I'm feeling sober now But I still can't feel the ground Tried I tried to make demands But it's not that hard to sense That things are different now Now that I don't feel so lonesome Anymore Feel so lonesome Now that I am not afraid At all If you put your arms around me I won't fall Now that I am not afraid At all But time It takes time to make amends Though it's so hard to make sense ’Cos I'm feeling sober now But I'm Too small to take defence Though it's not that hard to sense That things are different now Now that I don't feel so lonesome Anymore Feel so lonesome Now that I am not afraid At all If you put your arms around me I won’t fall Now that I am not afraid At all At all Na-na-na Na-na-na-na-na Na-na-na I’m not afraid At all... --
