標題[心得] Sixpence None The Richer的經典之作
時間Sun Dec 21 00:49:32 2008
雖然Kiss Me都還在各大婚宴喜慶場合被放送不休, 但Sixpence None The Richer
在我心目中最經典的歌曲, 還是這首I've Been Waiting. 它的歌詞充滿著都會寂寥,
卻又帶著八九零年代復古清透氛圍的無奈叛逆.
或許因為是來自於電影View from the top, 所以當我聽見婉轉悠柔的前奏響起,
眼前就浮現空姐裝束的Gwyneth Paltrow逡巡在不同飯店房間裡, 那高雅卻寂寞的
身影, 和輕冷的編曲非常搭配. 即使這部被定位成搞笑片的電影本身評價頗低...
但許多出色插曲, 如Plumb的Boys Don't Cry, Kaci的I'm Not Anybody's Girl,
Sofia Loell的Utopia, Katie Cook翻唱Cyndi Lauper的名曲Time After Time,
到現在為止都是我心中的經典.

還有歌詞
Sixpence None The Richer
I've Been Waiting
So I'm waiting by a phone
For the blessed ring
Like a holy grail
for a fisher king
Time is ticking down
like a metronome
Rythmn for my brain
and its ceaseless scares
I never seem to play them to the beat I hear
Though my heart beat is a beat
that beats so near
So we had a talk last night
About the heavy blow that you dealt in fight
Your back against the wall
It was a puzzle peice
important to the whole that I may not find
You placed within the hole
I never seem to put them in the gaps I see
like a puzzle where the pieces lost you and me
So Im changing who I am
'cos what I am's not good
And I know you love me now
But I don't see why you should
and I don't see why you should
No I don't see why you should
So I drift into the end like a moth to light
Down the boulevard to a coffee shop
In the land of song
In the land of wait
Beat is bearing down on this lonely town
I never seem to write them down as good as you
Like I some where lost the keys that let me in
So I'm changing who I am
'cos what I am's not good
And I know you love me now
But I don't see why you should
So i'm changing who I am
'cos what i am's not good
and I know you love me now
Though I don't see why you should
and I don't see why you should
No I don't see why you should
