-ΦMy Distilled SpiritΦ-

 

收錄在2005的American idiot裡的歌曲...


話說Green Day很久都沒有新專輯的消息,
反而是不務正業,
原班人馬加上演唱會上常見的樂手組了新樂團
"Foxboro Hot Tubs"
在myspace上玩復古的Garage Rock竄紅,
結果被抓包後來才承認...
也推出了專輯,評價還不低
前陣子好像還開始搞巡迴...
也太過分了吧= =


Whatsername
-----------------------------------------------------
Thought I ran into you down on the street,

Then it turned out to only be a dream,

I made a point to burn all of the photographs,

She went away and then I took a different path,

I remember the face,

But I can't recall the name,

Now I wonder how whatsername has been


Seems that she disappeared without a trace,

Did she every marry old what's his face,

I made a point to burn all of the photographs,

She went away and then I took a different path,

I remember the face,

But I can't recall the name,

Now I wonder how whatsername has been


Remember, whatever,

It seems like forever ago,

Remember, whatever,

It seems like forever ago,

The regrets are useless,

In my mind,

She's in my head,

I must confess,

The regrets are useless,

In my mind,

She's in my head,

From so long ago


And in the darkest night,

If my memory serves me right,

I'll never turn back time


Forgetting you, but not the time

GreenDay5月底發行的單曲【Working Class Hero】
一如往常備受爭議, YouTube上的留言有褒有貶。
翻唱自約翰藍儂 ~好悲情的感覺...
下午軍訓課才看完南北戰爭時黑人打戰的影片 -_ -|||

GreenDay每次都隔好久才出一張專輯...
期間出的單曲也都是翻唱的居多~_~"
他們到底有沒有在想新歌...
記得很久前就說已經開始要錄了



Working Class Hero (無產階級英雄)
----------------------------------------------------------
作詞：John Lennon 作曲：John Lennon 1970

As soon as your born they make you feel small
當你一生下來,他們讓你覺得自己很渺小
By giving you no time instead of it all
讓你頓時無所適從
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
那麼劇烈的痛楚,你卻毫無感覺
A working class hero is something to be
藍領英雄必須受到尊重,藍領英雄必須受到尊重
A working class hero is something to be
藍領英雄必須受到尊重,藍領英雄必須受到尊重
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
他們在家傷害你,他們在學校打壓你
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
假如你聰明伶俐使他們相形見拙,他們會憎恨你
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
你簡直瘋狂透頂,你不能任他們擺佈呀!
A working class hero is something to be
藍領英雄必須受到尊重,藍領英雄必須受到尊重
A working class hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
當他們對你20幾年來的施暴恐嚇後
Then they expect you to pick a career
他們會打量你選擇的職業(身份)
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
但你是無法在充滿恐懼下還施展你的工作能力
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and tv,
他們持續用宗教,性愛和電視來麻醉你(的感官)
And you think you're so clever and you're classless and free,
你認為你是如此聰明,且自由自在
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see,
(其實)你是他媽的沒用的弱勢族群!
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

There's room at the top they are telling you still
那有另一個更好的發展空間,他們卻要你按兵不動
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
首先你必須學會如何笑裡藏刀
If you want to be like the fool on the hill
(如果)你想要成為像站在高處的那群人
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero, well just follow me
如果你想成為英雄的話,那就跟隨我吧!
If you want to be a hero, well just follow me
如果你想成為英雄的話,那就跟隨我吧!

Brain Stew
-------------------------------------------

I'm having trouble trying to sleep
I'm counting sheep but runnin' out
As time ticks by
And still I try
No rest for crosstops in my mind
On my own...here we go

My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed
Dried up and bulging out my skull
My mouth is dry
My face is numb
Fucked up and spun out in my room
On my own...here we go

My mind is set on overdrive
The clock is laughing in my face
A crooked spine
My sense is dulled
Passed the point of delirium
On my own...here we go

Waiting
-------------------------------------------

I've been waiting a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like a new diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
No one can touch me now
And I can't turn my back
It's too late ready or not at all
(Chorus)
I'm such so much closer
Than I have ever known
Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars

Dawning of a new era
Calling, don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Almost I can embrace this
Feeling on the tip of my tounge

Dumbstruck
Color me stupid
Good luck
You're gonna need it
Where I'm going
If I get there at all

難得聽到Green Day用木吉他演奏
輕快的曲子~
同樣的...就算每個單字都查出來,
還是不知道歌詞該怎麼翻...= =y

Macy's Day Parade
----------------------------------------------------

Today's the macy's day parade
The night of the living dead is on its way
With the credit report for duty call
It's a lifetime guarantee
Stuffed in a coffin, 10% for free
Red light special at the masoleum

Give me something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed to you
What's the consolation prize
Caught in these side dreams of hope

When I was kid I thought
I wanted all the things that haven't want
Oh but I learned the hardest way
Then I realized what it took
Tell the difference between thieves and crooks
Lesson learned between me and you

Give me something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed to you
Cause I'm thinking of a brand new hope
The one I've never known
And where it goes
And I'm thinking about the only road
The one I've never known
And where it goes

Because I'm thinking about
A brand new hope
The one I've never known
Cause now I know
It's all I ever wanted

11月會發行的新單曲"The Saints Are Coming"
這是GREEN DAY&U2
為了遭受Hurricane Katrina災害的紐奧良災民募款所做的表演
那些災民簡直像二等國民...
人道關懷...噗~
布希只會戰爭而已

第一個是video


這是演唱會(一開始是Wake me up when September ends, 有銅管伴奏還是第一次聽到...)



"The Saints Are Coming"

There is a house in New Orleans, They call the super dome.
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy, and God, I know i'm one.


Verse 1

I cried to my daddy on the telephone,

how long now?

Until the clouds unroll and you come down,

the line went.

But the shadows still remain since your descent,

your descent.


Verse 2

I cried to my daddy on the telephone,

how long now?

Until the clouds unroll and you come home,

the line went.

But the shadows still remain since your descent,

your descent.


Chorus 1

The saints are coming, the saints are coming.

I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply.

The saints are coming, the saints are coming.

I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply.


Verse 3

A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief,

how long now?

Until the weather change condemns belief,

how long now?

When the night watchman is in the fleet

Whats wrong now?


Chorus 2

The saints are coming, the saints are coming

I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply

The saints are coming, the saints are coming

I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply

I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply

I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply

由於blog spirit 到20號我的試用期就結束, 要開始收費了...
因此...Let's call it a day ~!!
9/20這裡就關了(應該吧...)

話說美國有些高中好像還用這首歌當畢業歌呢~!
而同樣也作為Bullet in a bible 演唱會的結束曲...
的確~ 這首歌很適合結束呢...

Good Riddance (Time of your life)

---------------------Lyrics-----------------------------

Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the belt
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don't ask why
It's not a question
But a lesson learned in time
(Chorus)
It's something unpredictable
But in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And stillframes in your mind
Hang it on a shelf
Of good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it's worth
It was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable
But in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

去年在倫敦 "Bullet in a bible" 演唱會~
6萬5千人的吶喊~~~~ 整個high到不行...
我也有買了這張DVD, 囧的是那時家裡根本沒有dvd player...
只好跑去某大埔路上賣音響的家裡看 =..=

事實上這首歌根本是我們現在的寫照...(宅?!)

----------------Lyrics-----------------------------
Longview

I sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on
Change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors
And I'm fucking lazy
(Chorus)
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm going blind
And I smell like shit

Peel me off this velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell
And I lost the key

I got no motivation
Where is my motivation
No time for the motivation
Smoking my inspiration

Sit around and watch the phone but no one's calling
Call me pathetic, call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When masturbation's lost it's fun
You're fucking lazy
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm going blind
And loneliness has to suffice
Bite my lip and close my eyes
I was slipping away to paradise
Some say, "Quit or I'll go blind."
But it's just a myth

-------------Lyrics-----------------
When I Come Around

I heard you crying loud
All the way across town
You've been searching for that someone
And it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself
Don't get lonely now
Dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazing my backyard so don't get so uptight
You've been thinking about ditching me
(Chorus)
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around

I heard it all before
So don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and a user
So I don't need no accuser
To try and slag me down because I know I'm right
So go do what you like
Make you sure you do it wise
You may find out that your self-doubt
Means nothing was ever there
You can't go forcing something
If it's just not right
