Circle 4

Over My Head (Cable Car) - The Fray

喵/古/森/塞:

The Fray 属于另类摇滚乐队,2002年在美国丹佛市成立,由4人组成,包括:同为校友的Isaac Slade(主唱和钢琴)和Joe King(吉他,演唱)以及后加入的Dave Welsh(吉他)和Ben Wysocki(鼓手及打击乐器)。

与英国的Coldplay和Keane相似,The Fray是新一批乐坛新兴血液中受英式乐队(诸如Coldplay和Keane)影响较深的一支,也保留了美国90年代传统摇滚Counting Crows和the Wallflowers的气质,还有点Jimmy Eat World这种EMO乐队的冲劲。但THE FRAY的特点在于乐队对钢琴的钟爱。也许就是因为钢琴,才使得他们的音乐有种特别的气质。旗帜般飘扬的主音唱腔颇具英式感,骨子里还是保守的美式作风,时不时来点情绪性的激扬调调,他们不是那种风格一脉相承的乐队,截取各家之长是他们一个显而易见的强项。

《Over My Head (Cable Car)》无疑是一首值得多听几遍的歌曲,是一首让人“过耳不忘”的歌曲。

歌词如下。

I never knew

I never knew that everything was falling through

That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue

To turn and run when all I needed was the truth

But that's how it's got to be

It's coming down to nothing more than apathy

I'd rather run the other way than stay and see

The smoke and who's still standing when it clears

Everyone knows I'm in

Over my head

Over my head

With eight seconds left in overtime

She's on your mind

She's on your mind

Let's rearrange

I wish you were a stranger I could disengage

Say that we agree and then never change

Soften a bit until we all just get along

But that's disregard

Find another friend and you discard

As you lose the argument in a cable car

Hanging above as the canyon comes between

Everyone knows I'm in

Over my head

Over my head

With eight seconds left in overtime

She's on your mind

She's on your mind

Everyone knows I'm in

Over my head

Over my head

With eight seconds left in overtime

She's on your mind

She's on your mind

And suddenly I become a part of your past

I'm becoming the part that don't last

I'm losing you and its effortless

Without a sound we lose sight of the ground

In the throw around

Never thought that you wanted to bring it down

I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves

Everyone knows I'm in

Over my head

Over my head

With eight seconds left in overtime

She's on your mind

She's on your mind

Everyone knows I'm in

Over my head

Over my head

With eight seconds left in overtime

She's on your mind

She's on your mind
