Artist:Zero 7
Song:In the Waiting Line

wait in line
'till your time
ticking clock
everyone stop

everyone's saying different things to me
different things to me
everyone's saying different things to me
different things to me

好听的音乐,沪江与我一同去美国(*^__^*)

woooohh
do you believe
in what you see
there doesn't seem to be anybody else who agrees with me

do you believe
in what you see
motionless wheel
nothing is real
wasting my time
in the waiting line
do you believe in
what you see

nine to five
living lies
everyday
stealing time
everyone's taking everything they can
everything they can
everyone's taking everything they can
everything they can

woooohh
do you believe
in what you feel
it doesn't seem to be anybody else who agrees with me

do you believe
in what you see
motionless wheel
nothing is real
wasting my time
in the waiting line
do you believe
in what you see

ah and i'll shout and i'll scream
but i'd rather not have seen
and i'll hide away for another day

do you believe
in what you see
motionless wheel
nothing is real
wasting my time
in the waiting line
do you believe
in what you see

everyone's saying different things to me
different things to me
different things to me
different things to me
different things to me
everyone's taking everything they can
everything they can

    Zero 7由Henry Binns及Sam Hardaker两位在伦敦当地录音室工作的伙伴一起组合而成,九零年代初期他们潜伏于录音室中,锻炼各种音乐制作上的技巧,并逐步发表他们改造别人歌曲的混音作品,其人以为英国摇滚名团Radiohead的"Climbing up the walls"以及Terry Callier的"Love Theme from Spartacus"最引人注目,展露精湛的制作功力,并与Pet Shop Boys及Robert Plant等巨星合作,在首张专辑《Simple Things》出版之前他们发表了两张少量生产的EP,造成了一股抢购搜集的热潮。

  《Simple Things》一张集合各式轻松电乐感觉的作品,混融爵士、灵魂、放克等元素在柔缓的chill-out电音情调中,辑内的演唱歌声部份特别找到了Mozez,Sia Furler以及曾在Groove Armada、 Grooverider专辑中献声的Sophie Barker跨刀。音乐杂志形容他们是"英国的Air",也有很多人喜欢把他们拿来和Morcheeba, Rae & Christian, Nightmares on Wax及早期的Massive Attack等乐团做比较,不过这些都不能确切地表达出Zero 7在此辑中的完美演出,不刻意地加入歌剧中受灵魂乐影响的女伶歌声,古典音乐的编曲风格以及带有迷幻气息的电子音墙,实在令人不得不赞叹这两位制作高手的深厚功夫。

  NME音乐周报-8分,All Music Guide音乐网站-四颗半星,都给予此辑近满分的超高评价,而Zero7也以这张作品分别荣膺英国两大指针性音乐奖:水星音乐奖(Mercury Music Prize) "年度专辑"及全英音乐奖(Brit Award) "最佳新进团体"等提名。喜欢轻淡舒缓的如Air、 Groove Armada、 Bent这些人的电音作品的话,千万别错过Zero 7这张专辑,光是"In the Waiting Line"一曲中的曼妙曲调就足以让人流连忘返。
