Remaining Days 18 - I Could Be Wrong
My best friend sent me this video.
Celsius is one of my favorite "Kent":http://pulp.bluecircus.net/archives/005519.html songs. So what is my favorite one? Well, I think most of you have already known "it":http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaVAWDioCPU. See, my taste isn't that unique at all and very predictable.
Among the always-great Kent catalogue, Celsius doesn't have the most memorable melody nor the catchiest intro. However, the guitar solo emerging from the later part of it is just sensational and so emotional-charge. Especially when the singer sings “What if I'm wrong? I could be wrong.” You can hear guitar is literally crying.
It’s one of those unexplainable experiences about a song can bring your mind to the other space. It’s far far away from where we usually live, and it’s above all the memories. As the song plays, as the guitar cries, we’re totally into an ecstatic state.
Sometimes it’s melancholy though. And most importantly, it's always heartbreaking.
(The first part of this video is the other great Kent song called Things She Said. If you just want to hear Celsius, you can fast forward it a little bit.)
Kent - Celsius
How far away is sleep now
In between the sheets it's cool
Hidden under blankets of plastic and cellophane blue
The temperature is rising
And I will fake a fever too
There are still so many things I wouldn't do
I feel like I am naked
An emperor without his clothes
And still my hands are shaking
Broken with an overdose
On chemicals I'm burning
Drunk deadly and old
And still there's something here
That leaves my cold
She's awake now
I know that she's awake now
I'm awake now
She knows that I'm awake now
We're awake now
We know that it is over
And it is obvious now
Still we're waiting
Close enough to smell it
Take a deep breath relax
Out upon the stairway
It's frozen and it shines like glass
We've been sleeping through September
And we're brittle as the frozen glass
And still I think I know I'm coming back
She's awake now
I know that she's awake now
I'm awake now
She knows that I'm awake now
We're awake now
We know that it is over
And it is obvious now
Still we're waiting
What if I'm wrong?
I could be wrong
I could be wrong
I could be wrong

我發現你的banner換了
新的banner讓我想起我最近十分喜歡的一首歌
是LCD Soundsystem最新專輯的最後一首歌：
"New York, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down"
不知道你聽過沒

前幾天剛好把這場演出分成三部份的影片整理成一篇頁面，大家對這場演出其他內容有興趣的話可以點下面的連結來收看。
kent的音樂作品裡除了近期完美的樂聲編制，我更偏好的是isola時期的他們，即使那時候Sami的吉他總是沙沙作響，不像現在DOJD的澄澈清晰，但那時的kent音樂是有著最濃的情緒和哀愁，Jocke那時的歌聲也總喚起我太多太多的回憶了呀。
另除了747、Celsius，瑞典文版本沒有收錄，有著豐富影像畫面的旋律和歌詞的Velvet也是他們不能錯過的一首歌～

to 宋胖,
聽了啊，LCD的新專輯簡直棒呆了。
不過我想不出這個Banner跟那首歌有什麼關係？
to firth,
Kent瑞典文版本的歌雖然都聽不懂歌詞，卻總有另一股迷人味道。

其實沒有太大的關係
就是"I Love NY"都同時出現在你的banner和那首歌裡面而已 XD
