关于[Fireflies].

Fireflies
Owl City

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude but I wouuld just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems

Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sockhop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
Please take me away from here
Cause I feel like such an insomniac
Please take me away from here
Why do I tire of counting sheep
Please take me away from here
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizzare
Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like To make myself believe
That Planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the sea

09年末爱上Fireflies.

那时我刚刚把播放器调成了初听觉得曲调有点怪异. 隔了几天听第二遍, 发现旋律很有韵味, 然后就不断的不断的听. 他精致的声音有些斯文并且略带些空灵的感觉. 直到后来我发现越听就越放不下, 像是一个巨大的漩涡一般, 越陷越深, 直到最后完全无力抵抗, 只好安静让它充盈整个耳廓并慢慢的蔓延到大脑的每个缝隙中, 在安静的夜里或者是安静的洋溢着阳光的午后, 安静的循环回荡.

"You would not believe your eyes. If ten million fireflies. Lit up the world as I fell asleep."
第一句的调子让人有点纳闷, 或是摸不着头脑.它和别的音乐不同, 并不能猜到下一句会是什么样. 现在相似的曲子实在是太多,有些歌从未听过但会觉得耳熟, 不是它效仿别人就是别人效仿它, 如出一辙的没有个性. 但Fireflies完全不同. 首段的感觉让我完全无法估量接下来的曲调. 然而也是这样的开头, 被唱的如此的轻柔, 让心脏稍微的一紧, 一瞬间唤醒了不知道在很深很深的地方隐匿了多久的回忆, 于是似痛非痛的感觉在胸膛散开.

"Cause they fill the open air. And leave teardrops everywhere. "
然后唱到了这句. 我就好像看到了千万只萤火虫在夜空里, 分散的缓慢飞舞着, 零零星星的光点散落在湖边的芦苇丛中, 背景是一片无法描述的深蓝. 新月洒下朦胧的淡淡的光线, 时常被丝丝缕缕的云遮住. 从没听过这种携着忧伤的顽皮的声音. 那应该是回忆童年的臆想的声音.

"A foxtrot above my head. A sockhop beneath my bed. A disco ball is just hanging by a thread."
我没有试过随着萤火虫舞蹈. 我甚至不记得什么时候见过萤火虫.
旋律陪着有趣的歌词, 我竟然会开始来回晃动.

"Leave my door open just a crack. Please take me away from here. Cause I feel like such an insomniac. Please take me away from here. Why do I tire of counting sheep. Please take me away from here. When I'm far too tired to fall asleep."
我的心就从这里开始突然像一朵茶色的花, 急速的瓣瓣绽开, 严密的包裹着的那些硬生生的痛悄无声息的汹涌的从花苞中铺天盖地的袭卷出来. 只因为那一句反反复复的"Please take me away from here." 那些我需要摆脱掉的东西一一陈列开来, 一个个的刺向我, 提醒着我半恐惧半迷惑的不曾提起的十一岁, 提醒着我梦魇还在继续, 提醒着所有的伤痛并没有结束. 就差那么一点点, 眼泪快要夺眶而出, 然而在最后一秒还是被我憋了回去, 一直待它倒流回心底. Please take me away from here. 他空灵的唱道. Please take me away from here please take me away from here please take me away from here...

我天真的想,带着我的梦远走高飞回事多么美妙的事.

"I'd like To make myself believe. That Planet earth turns slowly. It's hard to say that I'd rather stay. Awake when I'm asleep. Cause everything is never as it seems. When I fall asleep."
最后恢复了一开始轻柔的音. 他轻轻的唱着, 然后我感觉心里的那朵花慢慢的平息了下来, 乖巧的召回了那些翻滚出去的切真实际的疼痛感, 把一片片花瓣稳稳地又收了起来, 心里的动荡渐渐的褪去. 高潮从头到尾都是同样的, 除了最后一段的最后一句.

Because my dreams are bursting at the sea.

我想到故乡爬满藤蔓的矮墙, 它们绿绿的外表包裹着神秘的气息, 从不接触太阳并墨绿的安恰, 交织相错而又美丽的纠缠着.
我想到小时候去郊外看流星雨时模糊的夜空, 似乎有一片永远也散不清的雾气在眼前弥漫着, 而那些星星却轻巧的穿透了云雾故作心不在焉的闪着光, 然后刷的在无止境的寂静中绘出一条亮堂的弧线, 脑海中留下一串荧光.
我想到曾经最爱最爱的《Ruby Holler》可是却丝毫不记得其中的任何细节, 只是封面清静而又温暖的色调清晰的在眼前浮现, 想到里面洋溢着的那种我永远无法体会到的幸福的气息.
我想到天空想到大海想到无边的土黄色的沙. 想到香格里拉想到格尔木想到云南想到漠河. 想到冰天雪地的西伯利亚. 想到埃及巴黎罗马希腊. 想到所有去过和没有去过但想去的地方.
我想到Miley略微沙哑的唱, i can almost see it, that dream i'm dreamin'.

我听到童年的夜里,一群萤火虫在从草的罅隙间窃窃私语着童话故事的声音.

正好最近我也一直在听owl city~！
记得我第一次听owl city的时候并不觉得有多大的惊艳的感觉
反倒觉得这不是我的那杯茶~
不过大概总是有些歌 初听和听第二遍第三遍的感觉是不太相似的
Adam这种温柔不张扬的声线大概给这曲加了不少分
乐评写的很细致~~~~good job~

第一次的确没有太深刻的印象.后来感觉就不同了.
我很喜欢Owl City那种不张扬的格调.
谢谢云大人~.
