A Penny For The Band - Justin Rutledge

蓝雨婉雪:

李节:

幻子-云:

一首让你用心的音乐,早晨的第一支歌。


简介:

Justin Rutledge,来自加拿大多伦多的乡谣诗人。冠其为诗人,倒不仅是因为他的创作天分,更是因为名副其实。从小立志成为作家,大学主修文学,专攻现代诗歌,在第三年却拾起吉他"投笔"从乐,踏上了自写自谱自唱的音乐之路。虽然学业半途而终,但几年深厚的文学积淀让他的音乐里蕴含着一种深邃的内质。乡村民谣本以朴实动人,可他的每首小品并不只是一个简单的故事,他的歌词具有诗歌所拥有的韵律。而其中内敛的情感则需要听者细心地去一一捕捉。他的声音沙哑温情却不失柔美,让人深陷,沉沦。

歌词:

Another Shirley Temple, 
Another Caine and Able, 
There's nothing out the window, 
And nothing on the table. 
This life is like a sad list
Strong across the Nation, 
If I miss you at the soundcheck, 
I'll see you at the station. 
There's a beast inside of me, 
And he's not bad a company
But he speaks in tongues I can never understand, 
He says it's one more show and a penny for the band. 
Keep everybody dancing, 
Keep everybody spending, 
I know I am not a good man, 
But I can keep pretending. 
I made it in a doorway, 
Dress is like a dark vale, 
But I'm not going your way, 
I'm going back to heartache. 
With a bottle of Burgundy, 
Where she waits on the balcony, 
With a northern wish and a daisy in her hand, 
To send me all her love and a penny for the band. 
There's a beast inside of me, 
And I miss my family, 
All these pages and these stages made of sand, 
Still, it's one more show and a penny for the band, 
One more show and a penny for the band 。
