在众多的女声天碟中其实有两种声音最弥足珍贵。一种凭着磁性迷人嗓音,唱尽人间沧桑变化;另一种则是独一无二的天赋,犹如不吃人间烟火的天籁之声。前者是入世,在俗世中的一股清泉,这大概只能是一些心无旁念,阅历过人的歌手的专利了,而后者是出世,由于先决条件的局限,可能比前者更罕见。
而来自都柏林的女歌手Meav则是后者中翘楚,在唱片中深情演绎了十二首爱尔兰民谣。她的歌声有如封面那样质朴而令人印象深刻,简单的伴奏乐器,更令Meav的歌声加添几分脱俗,Meav运腔圆转,即使是在高音域依然保持清丽的透明度,毫无让人难受的沙石感
Méav - Méav
One I love, two she loves
Three she's true to me
All of my friends fell out with me
Because I kept your company
But let them say whatever they will
I love my love with a free good will
One I love, two she loves
And three she's true to me
They tell me she's poor, they tell me she's young
I tell them all to hold their tongue
If they could part the sand from the sea
They never could part my love from me
One I love, two she loves
Three she's true to me
When I'm awake, I find no rest
Until her head lies on my breast
When I'm asleep I'm dreaming of
My own, my dear, my one true love
One I love, two she loves
Three she's true to me
When the fire to ice will run
And when the tide no longer turns
And when the rocks melt with the sun
My love for you will have just begun
One I love, two she loves
Three she's true to me
One I love, two she loves
And three she's true to me
