關(guān)于Standfast:
Standfast成軍的過程非常有趣。1997年,Suzanne與Patrick在瑞典首都斯德哥爾摩相識,彼此認為可以組成搭檔試試運氣。“我們在某個地下室租了一間完全密閉的練團室。那個地方充滿了年輕的音樂創(chuàng)作人,日夜不停地在寫歌、錄試聽帶。”他們欣賞The Beatles、Everything But the Girl、Pink Floyd、Coldplay以及Erykah Badu等藝人。對于寫歌與60年代的旋律有著共同的熱情,讓Suzanne與Patrick湊在一起。
這兩個人相處的模式十分自然、融洽,就像他們的音樂一樣,飄蕩著北歐特有的浪漫氣息,一種冷凝、致膩的銀白色浪漫。華語天后許茹蕓加盟EMI的首張大碟便決定與Standfast合作,以她特有的美幻派氣聲唱腔詮《Carcrashes》一曲(中文版曲名《他們的故事》,林夕填詞)。潔凈卻涵蘊豐沛情感的吉他旋律,簡單且充滿現(xiàn)代質(zhì)感的電氣節(jié)奏,Standfast在喧囂塵音雜浮不定的流行音樂市場中,送給樂迷一個可以細細舐嘗音樂甜點的陽光午后。
Car crashes, TV shows
A drunkard on the side of the road
People running (running)
Fantasy or reality
Analysis and theories
What does matter really?
Chorus
Tell me what to believe
Won't you bring me order
Tell me what to achieve
Baby, so I can move forward
Tell me what to be
Car crashes, TV shows
A drunkard on the side of the road
People runnin', run
Credit cards in place of distress
Go live your life on the Internet
That's what this is
Conspiracies and mysteries
Science-fiction make-believe
My kind's misery
Chorus x2
Car crashes, TV shows
A drunkard on the side of the road
People runnin' (running)
(All these car crashes in my head)
Fantasy or reality
Analysis and theories
(All these car crashes)
What does matter really?
(All these car crashes)
