两则有点累格的消息,
不过还是分享给大家囉:)
1. 圣诞专辑
每年都很期待美国拉斯维加斯乐团 The Killers的圣诞歌,
不过今年他们没有原创歌曲了,取而代之的是翻唱<I'll Be Home For Christmas>。
然而重点并不是在歌曲的诠释上,
占了大半的口白是主唱 Brandon Flowers回忆童年,
从内华拿州 Henderson搬到犹他州 Payton的生活、心境等等…
(来听听 Brandon西部腔美语,据说他早年唱歌刻意用假英国腔,网络上还有一些讨论呢!
不过杀手所有专辑都在英国夺冠,也真的是算他们的福地)
特别提到的是一位令他印象深刻的小学老师,
身为韩战老兵的这位老师当年在同学面前高歌,
如今 Brandon再度邀请他在今年的圣诞翻唱中演唱。
素人略微走音的歌声却有种不完美中的感动,
Brandon退居合音配角︰ 'If he doesn't mind, I might join in, too.'

The Killers也集结了过往10年的慈善圣诞歌曲加上上面这首新曲,
发行了名为《Don't Waste Your Wishes》的专辑︰
1. "A Great Big Sled" (featuring Toni Halliday)
2. "Don't Shoot Me Santa" (featuring Ryan Pardey)
3. "Joseph, Better You Than Me" (featuring Elton John and Neil Tennant)
4. "!Happy Birthday Guadalupe!" (featuring Wild Light and Mariachi El Bronx)
5. "Boots" (featuring dialogue from It's a Wonderful Life)
6. "The Cowboys' Christmas Ball"
(Lyrics taken from 1890 poem of the same name)
7. "I Feel It in My Bones" (featuring Ryan Pardey)
8. "Christmas in L.A." (featuring Dawes)
9. "Joel the Lump of Coal" (featuring Jimmy Kimmel)
10. "Dirt Sledding" (featuring Ryan Pardey and Richard Dreyfuss)
11. "I'll Be Home For Christmas" (featuring Ned Humphrey Hansen)
你最喜欢那一首呢?
我最爱的是恐怖圣诞老人系列里的
Don't Shoot Me Santa https://youtu.be/cglLJJ0Czo8
I Feel It in My Bones https://youtu.be/ECHv5KV4ZuM (好80s)
还有 MV超级温馨(以及主唱非常帅)的 Boots https://youtu.be/UymN_kjYeFk
2. 《Sam's Town》十周年发行弃曲 demo
今年杀手的第二张专辑《Sam's Town》满十周年,
为了庆祝重发限量豪华版专辑(其实只多两首)。
其中有首之前从未发行过的专辑弃曲 Peace of Mind,
单曲封面主角就是专辑山姆小镇封面同位女郎。
不是什么大歌,不过我很喜欢它的旋律与歌词。
曲中3分钟左右开始的合成音效后来被用在 My List一曲当中,
钢琴摇滚的调调跟 My List也有有几分相似。
The Killers - Peace of Mind

歌词︰
There's no one on the radar, no creature in the grove
No reason to be hateful, life is a treasure trove
And peace of mind is easy to find when the time is right
Come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
We'll take a ship to Cairo, we'll find the Gods, I'm told
I heard the sun is blinding, I hear the streets are gold
We'll build a bridge to Eden and then we'll burn it down
We'll never leave, we'll never die, we'll never turn around
Well peace of mind is easy to find when the time is right
So come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
Peace of mind, peace of mind
When the time is right (When the time is right)
When the time is right (When the time is right)
Come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
Come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
And peace of mind is easy to find when the time is right
So come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
It's rattling my bones now, it's rushing though my veins
Everything we know is purpose, there's no need to stay in chains
You've got to learn to let go, just let go and I'll let it be
And every fighter goes down, just slow down and turn the cheek
Because peace of mind is easy to find when the time is right
So come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
Peace of mind is easy to find when the time is right
So come away, come away, come away, come here
Come, I'm callin', come
老实说《Sam's Town》是四张专辑里面我比较不喜欢的,
但是最近重听又突然觉得真不错,人的口味真的会变XD
话说最近一张作品已经是2012年了,虽然主唱2015年的个专也是非常好听,
还是希望能有乐团新专辑的消息啦~
