Vienna Teng-Antebellum
今天介绍的这首歌来自Vienna Teng在09年发行的专辑<Inland Territory>▲专辑封面
Vienna Teng/史逸欣是一位来自加州的华裔创作女歌手，她的音乐风格混合了folk、pop、classical piano以及a cappella，而钢琴则是她最常用以呈现她创作的歌词的乐器。<Inland Territory>则是她的第四张专辑。
▲史逸欣（怎么说呢，气质是有的，
但是很多照片都没呈现出来）
而这首<Antebellum>呢， 词是由史逸欣和Alex Wong一同创作的，我之前一直以为是和南北战争有关{:6_168:}，不过最近翻翻了外国的评论，似乎是和两个人（恋人？）之间的矛盾有关。不过不论怎么来说，这首歌的词都能有非常好的解释，并且个人认为如果真的和战争相关也确实有另一番风味，特别是当男声吟唱的部分响起的时候。而整首歌的曲则平稳沉静，非常温和舒适。
不知道有没有看过OAC的同学，据说这首歌在OAC中曾出现两次，但我对Christian清理泳池的那次印象更为深刻，并且之后听这首歌的时候，总是会联想到弥散着绿意的风景。

歌词
In the fall, we circle through the leaves
and talk about the little ones.
And we smile, but never say too much.
The moment always vanishing.
One by one the neighbors' lights come on.
Our October day is almost gone.
I know the border lines we drew between us
keep the weapons down,
keep the wounded safe;
I know our antebellum innocence
was never meant to see the light of our armistice day.
In the spring, we climbed the rolling hills
and talked about our budding plans.
And we smiled, our faces like a mirror
showing us our secret sides.
But then the fights:
the sharp words splintering the night,
how I couldn't be what you'd need?
But oh how I could make you bleed?
I know the border lines we drew between us
keep the weapons down,
keep the wounded safe;
I know our antebellum innocence
was never meant to see the light of our armistice.
But how much would I give to have it back again?
How much did we lose to live this way?
You'll go home, I'll stay here,
seasons keep on marching...
I'll stay here, you'll go home,
with only strangers watching...
You'll go home, I'll stay here,
seasons keep on marching...
I'll stay here, you'll go home,
with only strangers watching...
I know the border lines we drew between us
keep the weapons down,
keep the wounded safe;
I know our antebellum innocence
was never meant to see the light of our armistice. 這首歌我的理解是講兩人之間的冷戰，在訴說已經回不去兩人熱戀時的心情;P
套用到前陣子台灣很流行的話：瑞凡，我回不去了:lol:lol:lol
看了专辑封面 想起来听Stray Italian Greyhound听过一段时间 不过还真不知道歌手是华裔 前奏感人{:6_200:}很喜欢这个歌词 QAQ 战争还是恋人矛盾的解释都有道理呢
