《情归新泽西》原声音乐New Slang - The Shins

The Shins

人活在世界上,快乐和痛苦本就分不清。所以我只求它货真价实。 ——王小波(购买链接)

来自美国新墨西哥州的四人乐队The Shins可以说是Indie音乐领域中最成功的乐队之一—不但在全世界拥有大批歌迷,2003年还被《Rolling Stones》评选为年度最佳乐队。唱片销量甚至超过许多主流乐队,也算是个不大不小的奇迹了。虽然他们来自美国,音乐风格却带有些英伦气息,低调另类,一些曲目呈现出一种忧伤的旋律感。这支乐队奉行的是代代相传的Do it yourself的真理,乐队的风格很低调,简单清爽的旋律仅仅是由键盘和吉他两种乐器结合而成的。
他们的风格融合乡村歌谣的甜美与民谣摇滚的明亮旋律,无论是 “Caring Is Creepy”的激昂洒脱,还是“New Slang” 的可爱小调,都是让人心头为之一震的好歌,同时这2首也收入进04年的电影《情归新泽西》(此OST获得2005年葛莱美奖最佳电影音乐原声带)。(网络整理)

New Slang - The Shins--:-- / 03:51
(*+﹏+*)

歌词:
gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
only, i don't know how they got out, dear.
turn me back into the pet that i was when we met.
i was happier then with no mind-set.
and if you'd 'a took to me like
a gull takes to the wind.
well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree
and i'd a danced like the king of the eyesores
and the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
new slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries.
hope it's right when you die, old and bony.
dawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
never should have called
but my head's to the wall and i'm lonely.
and if you'd 'a took to me like
a gull takes to the wind.
well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree
and i'd a danced like the kind of the eyesores
and the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
god speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
and bleed into their buns 'till they melt away.
i'm looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find.
without a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb to refine?
and if you'd 'a took to me like
well i'd a danced like the queen of the eyesores
and the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
