[单曲]Everything Has Change+Fancy Funeral

【题记】民谣创作才女Lucinda Williams曾被乐评誉为“美国流行乐界最杰出的四大天才之一”，她凭藉才华洋溢的创作和不加掩饰抒发情感的出色演绎，多次获得葛莱美音乐奖提名和奖项。这位比较根源化的歌手，没有象SHANIA TWAIN那样将乡村乐流行再流行，而是保持了美国民谣和乡村乐中质朴无华的一面，所以她在乡村乐迷中有很高的威望，每个听了她的歌的人，几乎都无法抗拒地成为她的死忠歌迷。Lucinda 终身未婚，她对自己的感情世界也讳莫如深。透过她的歌我们窥见的多半是挫折和失落，是隐藏着幻灭的欢乐，是没有结局的想望和渴慕，是记忆中种种美好不美好的往事。
      Lucinda Williams以她慵懒而不加修饰的嗓音，以及那把质朴的吉他，让世纪末浮躁的人们想起了世界上还有一种音乐叫做乡村民谣。民谣是生命力极强的音乐形式，虽然相比种种新奇的尝试，它显得有些简朴，但正因为简朴，它的感染力总是最直接的,就是以简单的旋律，感动了无数漂泊的人。下面两首歌均来自Lucinda Williams最新专辑《WEST》中最为出色的作品

Fancy Funeral






Everything Has Change
I can't feel my love anymore
I can't feel my love anymore
Mystery and the splendor
Don't thrill me like before
I can't feel my love anymore
I don't want to talk to anyone
I don't want to talk to anyone
All the words that used to work
Are melted in the sun
And I don't want to talk to anyone
Faces look familiar,
But they don't have names
Towns I used to live in
Have been rearranged
Highways I once traveled down
Don't look the same
Everything has changed
Everything has changed
I can't find my joy anywhere
I can't find my joy anywhere
All the magic vanished into the misty air
And I can't find my joy anywhere
Now I don't know where my faith has gone
Now I don't know where my faith has gone
From the wonder I had a sense of
To the brightest star that shone
And now I don't know where my faith has gone
Faces look familiar,
But they don't have names
Towns I used to live in
Have been rearranged
Highways I once traveled down
Don't look the same
Everything has changed
Everything has changed


Fancy Funeral
Some think a fancy funeral
Will be worth every cent
For every dime and nickel
Is money better spent
Better spent on groceries
Covering the bills
Instead of little luxuries
Unnecessary frills
Lovely yellow daffodils
And lacey filigree's
Pretty little angels
For everyone to see
Lilly of the valley
Long black limousenes
Three or four months salary
Just to pay for all those things
So don't buy a fancy funeral
It's not worth it in the end
Goodbyes can still be beautiful
With all the money that you'll spend
Theres no amount of riches
Bring back what you lost
To satisfy your wishes
You'll never justify the cost

非常喜欢```很浪漫的乡村蓝调`` 有点像在看某部公路电影的感觉`~~
