专辑名称:《Maybe I’m Dreaming》
相关介绍:
来自美国明尼苏达州奥瓦通纳(Owatonna, Minnesota )的大学二年级生Adam Young,于2007年组建了Owl City乐队。他是这支流行电子乐队的唯一成员,负责主音、合成器和编曲等工作。随之独立发行的首张EP《Of June》,在2007年的夏天,为电音界吹来一股凉爽的清风。
2008年3月18日,Owl City的专辑《Maybe I’m Dreaming》发行。梦幻的标题,简洁的封面,如同糖衣包裹的声线和旋律,捎来令人欣喜的清新气息。
Owl City 在他的MySpace上写到,由于失眠的缘故,大部分歌曲都是在凌晨的时候制作出来的。清晨的第一滴露水和青草的芳香,已无形地渗透到Owl City的音乐里,自然灵动的氛围贯穿其中。他的声音象少女倾诉心事一样温文细气,但对旋律节奏的掌握也十分到位。从精致的和声到深情的合唱,Owl City 的个人魅力也越加凸现。甜蜜的声线清新的电子音乐,这貌试简单的配搭却被Owl City 演绎得绚丽多彩。
歌词:
I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
昨夜睁开双眼,看见你在那昏暗微弱的灯光下
Walking down by the bay, on the shore
漫步在海湾边,停在沙滩上
Staring up at the planes that aren't there anymore
凝望着空中早已远逝的飞机
I was feeling the night grow old
漫漫长夜,愈来愈深
And you were looking so cold like an introvert
你看起来犹如一个内敛的人,如此的冷漠
I drew my over shirt around my arms and began to shiver violently
我开始冷得瑟瑟发抖起来,继而拽了拽我的旧衬衣,让它披裹在双臂上
Before you happened to look And see the tunnels all around me Running into the dark underground
你无意的一瞥,看见了环绕在我身边的隧道朝着那黑漆漆的地下延伸
All the subways around create a great sound
地道里的声音响彻云霄
To my motion fatigue: farewell
跟我疲惫的身心说再见
With your ear to a seashell
你的耳朵贴紧一枚海螺贝壳
You can hear the waves in underwater caves
你就能听见深海洞穴里海浪翻滚的声音
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room
仿若你真的置身于海底世界般
Time together is just never quite enough
相聚的时间总是短暂
When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home
当我们分开,各自独身一人时,从来没有家的感觉
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
什么能点燃或者打破爱情的那层隔膜
We need time, only time
我们需要时间,仅仅需要时间
When we're apart whatever are you thinking of
当我们分开的时候,不管对方想什么都无所谓
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
如果这就是所谓的家,为何感觉如此孤独
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
告诉我,亲爱的,你希望和我相爱吗?
All the time, all the time
一直相爱,,,永远相守。。。。
Can you believe that the crew has gone And wouldn't let me sign on?
你能相信那些人群已经离开远去且不在我记忆中留下任何痕迹吗?
All my islands have sunk in the deep
我整个人已经泥足深陷,无法自拔了
So I can hardly relax or even oversleep
所以我根本无法放松入睡,更甭说睡过头了
I feel as if I were home
我仿佛感觉又回到了家
Some nights when we count all the ship lights
回到了你我一起数着船舶灯的那些夜晚
I guess I'll never know why sparrows love the snow
我猜我永远也不会知道麻雀喜爱雪的理由
We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow
我们将要关上所有的灯,让这舞厅一片火红
