Artist:The Little Hands of Asphalt
Song:Oslo

It was a moment for the books.
The calendar looked
just like the novels we had only skimmed through.
So I circled out the dates that I’ll skillfully waste.
For now that’s going to have to do.

好听的音乐，沪江与我一同去美国(*^__^*)

It was the brightest summer day, after we swam in the lake,

that you told me our luck is gonna end.

So we better be concerned. We’re where the subway turns.

We need a camera and some cash to spend.

And our picturesque blame; we’ll put it in IKEA-frames.

Up on the wall it looks profound,

and reminds us Oslo is a small, small town. (Yeah)

So it’s night and we dive into a basement that’s alive

with stupidity that melts into pairs.

But your good intent was clear when you split and left me here
to regret I left my high horse upstairs.

And with the way I say goodbye
I could have ruined everything.
But I’ll be seeing you around
because Oslo is a small, small town.

I’m keeping myself calm
if just for the sake of staying warm.
So with my eyes fixed on the ground
I admitted Oslo is a small, small town. (Yeah)

    假使每个月都能有如此出色的独立民谣问世。可能就没有那么多人再抱怨如今的音乐大不如前了。这样的称赞未免有些过头，但远远不足以表达我对这张唱片的喜爱之情。这只乐队来自挪威首都奥斯陆，今年早些时候曾发行过一张EP《Spit Back at the Rain》，而在全新录音室专辑《Leap Years》中，开篇曲就叫做《Oslo》。他们的音乐与Brgiht Eyes,Ally Kerr等有几分相似，清新的原声吉他配以温柔至极的人声，没有华丽的乐器编配，没有复杂的歌曲架构，但绝对好听的旋律已经能掩盖所有不足之处了。说到底，这是至今以来我听过的最好的2009唱片。（摘自Hit轻音乐杂志乐评）
