Songs In The Key of Love & Hate

好一陣子...............
連放了幾首"Arctic Monkeys"的歌
(聽說我們聰明的唱片公司給人家音譯叫"北極潑猴"....)
歌曲中的solo有時激昂,有時頹廢
老實說.......還真是百聽不膩呢~*
在現今重金屬,饒舌和R＆B如此猖獗之下
就是必須有這樣的band來舒緩一下視聽神經
復古,龐克帶點頹廢~~~~~
這種曲風,老實說他們真的算是屬一屬二
(當然"The Strokes"和"The Libertines"也不容小觑)

Arctic Monkeys:Fake Tales of San Francisco


歌詞:

Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the room
More point to a wedding disco
Without a bride or groom

There's a super cool band yeah
With their trilbys and their glasses of white wine
And all the weekend rock stars in the toilets
Practicing their lines

I don't want to hear you
(Kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear you no
(Kick me out, kick me out)

Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the air
And there's a few bored faces in the back
All wishing they weren't there

And as the microphone squeaks
A young girl's telephone beeps
Yeah she's dashing for the exit
she's running to the streets outside
"Oh you've saved me," she screams down the line
"The band weren’t very good
And I'm not having a nice time”

Yeah but his bird thinks it's amazing, though
So all that's left
Is the proof that love's not only blind but deaf

He talks of San Francisco, he's from Hunter's Bar
I don't quite know the distance
But I'm sure that's far
I'm sure that's pretty far

I'd love to tell you all my problem
You're not from New York City, you're from Rotherham
So get off the bandwagon, and put down the handbook

Get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
