http://www.davidusher.com/themusic/David Usher的新专辑strange bird在3月20号会发行,应该是比较好听的一张。从在他个人网站上试听的The Music和Brilliant来说,这张CD的风格应该和morning orbit比较接近。我比较喜欢brilliant
"brilliant" (lyrics)
so far so good
stumble through life so complicated it's nearly impossible
and i lost my way like i knew i would and keep it together somehow anyway
and i remember you and me
climbing over backyard fences diving naked in the swimming pool
all those faces friends those memories fade so fast like every love song on the radio
is it brilliant where you are
where the lights are low
is it brilliant where you are
where the lights are
through a million days through a million hazy nights
we sit amusing in our politics
through wine and talk through sex and art we fill our time
and numb ourselves with what's to come
but i'm older now got a little girl of my own
and her fears are my fears now
i know that it's the end of days for moderates
but thinking people are thinking still
is it brilliant where you are
where the lights are low
is it brilliant where you are
where the lights are
so far so good
stumble through life so complicated it's nearly impossible
and we lost our way like i knew we would
keep it together somehow anyway
woke up from an impossible dream
we talked and we spoke and we drank and we sang
and we danced and we live and we love and we give
and without question or faith then we fight till we hate
and we hope and we pray that this violence will fade
it's always the same it's the same life"
转眼喜欢他的歌词和歌曲已经快十年了。这位叔叔的容颜仿佛不曾老去。他的the music mv让我想起moist的tangerine。同样是深沉的色调和满墙的notes。想来喜欢他歌的主要原因是因为他所要表达的东西和我的想法相当一致。开始喜欢他的歌是因为能confirm my existence,而现在恐怕只是习惯了。
"Lyrically, I think there's a theme to the record," says David Usher of his fifth and newest solo album, Strange Birds, due out March 20. "The theme definitely has to do with finding your place within your own world, which is finding your place in your neighbourhood, which is I guess what I'm doing down here."

可以预见的是我会经常换地方,每换一次地方我就需要finding my place again
和culture shock一样, 会颠覆你的世界观, constantly humbles myself
Life is difficult! We must attest to the fact that life was never meant to be easy, and that it is nothing but a battlefield of problems. We can either moan about them or solve them.
