鄙人自小没有音乐细菌,唯有《义勇军进行曲》还唱不到调上,所以打小就对音乐没多大兴趣。不过在那个谁的威逼利诱之下,现在也染上了收集音乐的癖好。自认为还是有几首不错的收藏,本着分享的精神拿出来跟大家分享。

听音乐只记得歌名和旋律,对唱歌的人反倒知之甚少,只有那么几个能叫得起的名字。

····--·-·-····----·-·········-······----·········

Maximilian Hecker,一个只唱英文歌的德国小伙子,用生动的音乐摆脱了僵硬的民族性,他即使不用晦涩的语言和复杂的配器来表达,也能将音乐做的如此伤感温柔,那忧郁敏感又不乏神经质的唱腔和恰到好处的钢琴提琴伴奏,瞬间爆发的噪音和吉他失真能表达的已经太多了。

废话慢慢说,先来一首,她说是她最喜欢的一首。

You came to me when I was born

You came to me when I was bleeding

You came to me when I was torn

You came to me when I was strung out

You came to me when I was born

You came to me when I was searching

You came to me when I was lying

You came to me when I was sad

You came to me when I was worn-out

You came to me when I was passed

You came to me when I was longing

You came to me when I was lost

You came to me when I was crazy

You came to me when I was caught

You came to me when I was crying

You came to me when I was fought

You came to me when I was bleeding

You came to me when I was torn

You came to me when I was strung out

You came to me when I was born

缓慢而伤感、沉重且动人、悲情但乐观,这就是Maximilian Hecker的歌曲,弥漫了忧伤的味道,却又时刻保持着唯美,这也是他的音乐特点。你就是我的白雪公主。

Snow white

You dreamed I was your lover

And I lied in your arms

You dreamed of all our children

Playing in the sun

I hope that you're alright

I hope, I hope that you're alright

Sleep, my Snow White

从淡淡的忧伤中能听出一丝快乐幸福,从懒洋洋的旋律中能听出一种欢快,从带有一丝喑哑的嗓音中能听出温柔。

My Story

He was a boy with pale blue eyes

Who came some day to realize

It's almost heaven

It's almost heaven

It's almost heaven to be free

He threw away his youth and now it's gone

The days were short, the nights were long

He sang: "West Virginia, Mountain Mama

Take me higher, take me home"

He met some women, he met some girls

To break their hearts, to wear their shirts

He sang: "West Virginia, Mountain Mama

Take me higher, take me home."

He was a boy with pale blue eyes

Who came some day to realize

My dream is over

My dream is over

Mountain Mama, take me home

他的音乐是以感性来打动你的,用内涵来吸引你,而不见长于音乐本身上的一些技巧或音色上的丰富变幻。

I Am Falling Now

There is no ending to this life

That I've to live with endless sighs

Oh, can't you see I'm falling now?

Oh, could you hear these words somehow

But I can see the sadness in your eyes

And I can see the sadness in your smile

Hold me now

Heal my wounds

Hold me like you did

There is no ending to this life

That I've to live with endless sighs

And all I know is that my head is gone

And I am falling now

(You don't miss me

You don't love me anymore

You don't need me

他的音乐,套用他的官方字眼,是一种“忧郁流行赞美诗”(Melancholy Pop Hymns)。

Polyester

Touching flowers with your scream

Meeting sweets

She smiles like cream

When your hair hides melting grace

Worn out minds won't touch your face

I am leaning far, too far above the ice

So I'll feed my hands with cheeks of other names

I am lying under tons of porcine snow

Polyester absorbs me

Fawn at last my parents cried

About my green and my last white

Now my darling goes to him

She will dare her cross's skin

I am leaning far, too far above the ice

So I'll feed my hands with cheeks of other names

I am lying under tons of porcine snow

Polyester absorbs me

I'm using gloves

他淡淡地唱着Lady Sleep,却用声音在无数个寂寞的深夜里一次又一次地谋杀了我的睡眠。

Lady Sleep

Lady Sleep, please kiss me sweetly

Throw me in a wad of cotton wool

And close my eyes, so I can see

Will you breast-feed with bewitching silence

Treat me like I was your only son

And love me like there was no morning?

You unfaithful lover

Careless mother

Cheating angel

Cause you always leave me after some time

So lustrously and disinfected

I'll be diving into you

When, eventually, will you stay forever?

他的音乐跟他的面孔一样纯净无暇,用最柔弱的嗓音表达着他感伤唯美的体验。

No More Lies To Reach You

No more lies to reach you

No more lies around

I tried hard to see you

I tried hard to sound

And no more lies around

No more lies to sound

I tried hard to see you

And I tried hard to sound

No more vows to reach you

No more vows around

I tried hard to fool you

And hard to lose the ground

And no more vows around

No more vows to sound

I tried hard to fool you

And hard to lose the ground

No more lies to reach you

No more lies in my head

Will you be mine?

我想背身睡去,却感觉到他就在身边,在黑暗里扭开一盏柔和的灯,靠着我自言自语。

Anaesthesia

She woke me up at night

To carry me outside

We hid in deeper forests

And fainted in the dark

Anaesthesia

Anaesthesia

Shining, brilliant darkness

No more need to run

Oh, tonight is the night of my life

And tomorrow is the first day of my life

Cause you are there to hold me

And I sing

I wallow in sounds of flapping wings

Flying in darkness while she sings

Oh my lord, I will be

古典韵味的钢琴、通透的假声、弥漫的稀薄情感、独特的曲式行进、偶尔肆虐的吉他失真和神经质的男声。 那是美丽的黑洞,我们早已在里面。

Never-Ending Days

Two thousand words, two thousand lies

It's just a veil over my eyes

And all my friends feel just like I do

And all my friends are sad

The night comes down, I fall asleep

And hope to vanish at highspeed

For all my friends feel just like I do

And all my friends are sad

So leave me crying

And leave me singing

About the never-ending days

So leave me homeless

And leave me naked

I'll stand the never-ending days

without you

来自有意思吧(www.u148.net)

当这个男人的声音远远地向你走来,如刚刚哭过的孩子,睫毛湿润,表情安静,影子忧伤疏离。

Let Me Out

I cannot breathe

Without you

Cannot walk

Without you

There is no ending of this life

There is no ending of this

Let me out

My head is gone

It flies with you

Although it's dark

Although it's cold

我只想听他安静地歌唱,溶在他带着罂粟香的气场里,找个时间让眼泪蒸发。看他低头弹键盘,背过身拨木吉他,卷发在眼角耳际开出花朵,透明的声音缠绕空气。然后我便沉入深海,海水的拥抱深厚,深厚到我愿意在这一刻死在沙漠里。

I'll Be A Virgin, I'll Be A Mountain

My thoughts are flowing

My love is growing

My dreams have ended

And my soul is stranded

Now that it's over

I'll leave my island

I'll swim to you

I'll leave my prison

To swim to you

Now that it's over

I'll be a virgin

When I reach you

I'll be a mountain

When I touch you

Now that it's over

And For you……

Rose

my life is swinging

my life is less

it is lessly falling down from heaven

and you will be washed to my shore

so light, so bright

your face is shining above me

heavy rainfalls and fragile guidance inside me

roses, oh i beg you to blind me with love

come down, feed me with stars

that you've stolen from heaven

waste me, kill me with one single glance into my eyes

roses, oh i beg you to blind me with love

my life is swinging

my life is less

it is lessly falling down from heaven

and you will be washed to my shore

believe in goldmines

believe in crying

fear in your sweet hair reminds me of the silent days

i don't fear death

there's no place for me

heal my soul

be my raincoat, roses

although i'm swinging

my life is over

it is over
